In April, Gwyneth Paltrow was spotted exiting Coach headquarters with company creative director Reed Krakoff. Soon after, Coach confirmed that Paltrow was set to serve as brand ambassador for an international campaign to mark Coach’s 70th anniversary this Fall and next Spring. Krakoff called Paltrow “a natural choice . . . She embodies the spirit, energy and elegance of the Coach brand.”
Peter Lindbergh shot Paltrow on the top of the Tudor City skyscrapers in Manhattan for ads that will only be used in Asian and European markets — and now we have a first look at the campaign.

‘Transformers 3′ actress and model Rosie Huntington-Whitely has just been named the face of Burberry Body. Rosie strips down to nothing but a Burberry trench coat to model….perfume. Makes complete sense!
Maxim already told us she had a hot body, and now, Transformers 3 star Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is flaunting her famous assets as the new — and first — face of Burberry Body fragrance. ”It’s a huge honor to be working with Burberry again, a brand that put my career on the map and helped launch me,” Huntington-Whiteley — who modeled for the company’s autumn/winter 2010 collection and wore lots of Burberry to promote Transformers — said of her new gig. “To be asked to be the first ‘Burberry Body’ is an amazing compliment.” Details of the scent have yet to be released, but what we do know is that the campaign images, shot by famed photographer Mario Testino, show off a seductive side of Huntington-Whiteley, who (almost) wears a rose-gold satin trench coat in the ads. Burberry Body will launch in stores worldwide this September.
Rihanna took to Twitter to announce her exciting news—the popstar is the new face of Armani.
Last Wednesday she said, “U would NEVER guess what I’m doing right now!!! Hint Hint #Armani” and this morning Armani announced she’d be the new “Global Testimonial” for both Emporio Armani Underwear and Jeans. A person can’t really be a testimonial, so in simpler terms, she’s the new Megan Fox. Look for her ads this fall.
Marion Cotillard’s latest campaign for Dior — co-starring the chain-handled Miss Dior handbag — breaks Monday in Italian magazine Amica, followed by Madame Figaro and British Elle on July 16. A range of September magazines are slated to carry the sun-dappled ads by Mikael Jansson, including Vanity Fair.
These pictures were reportedly shot two weeks after she gave birth to her first child!
Wow! Heidi Klum is everywhere right now! From hosting ‘Project Runway’ to launching her debut fragrance, where does this super-mom find the time for anything new?

Wildlife by Heidi Klum debuts September 8th during QVC’s special Fashion’s Night Out broadcast from Manhattan.
Donatella Versace stepped onto the runway in Milan yesterday in a show-stopping black studded leather cocktail dress — and, for once, the outfit she’s wearing is actually affordable!
That LBD is one of 40 pieces for women the pricey fashion house created for H&M. Versace also made 20 pieces for men and a number of accessories, which will all be available in stores November 19.
The designer will also release a pre-spring collection with the store online starting January 19 2012.
“For me, this is an opportunity to show to the very very big audience of H&M what Versace has been and what Versace is now,” Donatella said in a video message posted today.
