A bit more on "Eyes of Laura Mars"

The cult '70s Faye Dunaway film Eyes of Laura Mars is a longstanding fashion favorite but no one has plumbed the film's creative depths as perfectly as Argentine photographer Sebastian Faena in V52. Faena casts supermodels Linda Evangelista and Raquel Zimmermann in his homage to the fabled film, shooting the pair as they reenact a few select scenes. It might be the first time Linda has picked up the lens, posing as photographer Laura Mars shooting the languid Raquel as she poses on a pink satin bed for an anti-depression drug commercial. It's a hilarious and over-the-top production that could truly only find a home within V's pages. And that's a good thing.

V52 Spring 2008 is on newsstands everywhere March 6th.

I like her more at JPG than I do at most shows. I mean, I like seeing her in shows, but she really stands out in JPG:D
 
The New York Times' Guy Trebay writes about Rachel in a behind-the-scenes article about Paris Fashion Week.

“Raquel flies away,” Ms. McGrath said airily. “But she always comes back.”
By that Ms. McGrath was indicating that Ms. Zimmermann had gone missing from this season from the catwalks in Milan. The reason was simple: her United States visa was due for renewal. She might also have meant, though, that although Ms. Zimmermann’s good looks are incontrovertible, she is an industry anomaly.

A decade older, at 26, than most of the competition, she is proof that the immortal Heidi Klum-ism about being in fashion one day and out the next miscalculates the intervals of change. Ms. Zimmermann has been in the business since she was 16 and has had all the magazine covers and walked all the runways and shot all the campaigns and yet somehow manages to seem fresh again each season.

“Why has she lasted so long?” a Vogue editor remarked on Tuesday (speaking anonymously, for fear of going off message and being banished to a job at a knitting catalog). “Maybe it’s that combination of a Nordic head on a Brazilian body.

Fashion is a funny business, Ms. Zimmermann mused as the hairdresser Teddy Charles readied her mane at Dior. “People are always taking care of you, you have a car and driver 24 hours a day, they’re treating you like a star. You can lose yourself in the fantasy.”

For a middle-class girl from the south of Brazil who had planned on becoming an architect, she suggested, the trick to achieving longevity has been perspective. “Absolutely, you can enjoy all the shows and the creative people and the fabulousness,” she said. “But in the end, you have to know how to go back to normal.”

:lol: this is the beginning of that part of the article above

She’s like a homing pigeon, this one,” Ms. McGrath said Monday, referring to the Brazilian Raquel Zimmermann, who currently holds the No. 1 position on the model-rating Web site Models.com. The passion that some people bring to reading the stock market index, others devote to this site. And weird as it may seem, there is a certain utility in a Web locale dedicated to charting the fortunes of people who are beautiful occupationally. Fashion is a consensus business, after all, based to a large extent on wholly subjective markers of taste. Vogue isn’t called that for nothing.

Oh, so that's why she wasn't in Milan. Finally we know. Thank you both for the article, I love Pat :lol:
