Hot in the News: We saw this coming a mile off: With her vivacious personality and endless talents -- modeling, entertaining, dancing, and singing -- it was only a matter of time before the world would come to realize that Cara Delevingne will not limit herself to walking the catwalk and modelling alone. According to the Daily Mail the 20-year-old model has landed a role in a film about hard-core London party-goers called, ‘Kids In Love.’ (Daily Mail)

Fashion Roundup: RiRi Takes Over LFW and Marc Jacobs as Hunky Diet Coke Man

What's wrong with this picture?

Cover Shot of the Week: Sarah Jessica Parker covers the March issue of Harper’s Bazaar China, but the question on everyone’s mind is whether or not she’s been photoshopped? In fact the shot is so strange that the fashion guru (as she is described in the article) is being compared to an alien?! Too harsh? Well we think so too, but it will certainly be remembered as one of the year’s Photoshop fails. (Examiner)

Hot in the News: The biggest event in fashion this week was London Fashion Week, and the most talked about show from LFW is Rihanna’s debut collection for River Island. Unfortunately the reviews are not living up to the expectations, with RiRi slammed for being an hour late as well as criticism of collection that has been described as “a wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen.” Nevertheless she helped stir huge buzz for the British brand -- even though she may have not actually designed the clothes! (Huffington Post)

Sexy Alert: If you have not yet seen Keira Knightley’s new Chanel commercial, then now is the time. The advert has been banned on children’s television networks by the ASA, as it is deemed “too sexy” for young viewers. Chanel defended the ad, saying it is “playful and sensual” rather than “overtly sexual.” Can Keira Knightley be too sexy? Judge for yourself… (Vogue UK)

Trend Spotter: This week on the trend spotter, we’ve seen a great collection of hot nails from London Fashion Week. From models wearing black nail polish at Moschino Cheap & Chic to the autumnal brown polish at Issa London. Take a look! (Bella Sugar)

Designer Special: Every fashion week, at least one brand will get a lot of attention for being technically innovative rather than for its fashion. This LFW it seems that Topshop got the most attention for announcing a partnership with Google+ for live streaming their Fall 2013 show on G+ Hangout. “What we need is infusion with technology,” says the brand. FashionTV has now been streaming live events from global fashion weeks for three seasons in a row! Is the future of fashion shows via the internet? (Bloginity)

Cool Video Spot: Marc Jacobs has been announced as the new creative director of Diet Coke for 2013. Jacobs has applied his skills to design the new line of Diet Coke cans and is starring in a new ad for the brand as the hunky “Diet Coke Man,” which is actually pretty adorable:

Hot in the News: Leonardo DiCaprio is famed for spotting hot new property; after all he was in a relationship with Gisele, Bar Refaeli, Erin Heatherton, and Blake Lively -- so much talent, perhaps he should start his own agency! According to reports ‘The Great Gatsby’ star has already set his eyes on a new acquisition and she’s named Cara Delevingne, but apparently Leonardo was too late to sink his teeth into this one, as her stock is already sky high. DiCaprio was spotted with Delevingne at a Cannes party, showing relentless efforts to lure her. To be continued… (Fashionista)

Trend Spotter: Clownish fashion?! Well it looks better than it sounds… Pink is back! And a new Elle Bulgaria editorial reveals how optimistic this coming summer could look.

Hot in the News: There have been tons of events this week, with NYFW still in full swing, the BAFTA awards, Berlin Film Festival, and more. But it was 55th annual Grammys that appears the most talked about of them all. Take a close look at the best and worst moments of the night, including Taylor Swift, Justin Timberlake, Johnny Depp, Jennifer Lopez and more. (E! Online)

Sexy Alert: It seems like this month everything is being leaked early, from Super Bowl commercial to magazine covers. So it’s no surprise that Kate Upton’s super sexy new Sports Illustrated cover popped-up just a day before it’s official unveiling. Sports Illustrated officials are keeping it no secret that they are investigating the matter and evaluating the damage caused. (Entertainment Weekly)

Trend Spotter: The “red trend” has arrived at New York Fashion Week! Is it Valentine’s Day, the Chinese New Year, or just a plain love for the color of passion that has triggered the trend? From DKNY’s red-hot coats to Diane von Furstenberg’s red dresses, NYFW is hinting at a red takeover for the Fall 2013-14 season. Other trends include florals and leathers which are set to continue throughout the fashion weeks. (NY Daily News)

Designer Special: Everybody seems to be talking about La Perla’s seductive presentation at New York Fashion Week, which showcased an outstanding lingerie collection for Fall 2013-14.

Fashion Roundup: Victoria’s Secret Model Erin Heatherton Poses Topless & Miranda Kerr Models Swimwear For Net-A-Porter

GQ Germany July 2013

Cover Shot of the Week: Victoria’s Secret Angel, Erin Heatherton, poses topless for GQ Germany! The model is also featured on the cover of the July issue -- only, a bit more covered up as opposed to the editorial inside. (GQ)

Hot in the News: Have football fans started visiting fashion shows?! It’s most likely that they haven’t, but its good to know there are also some fanatic fashion fans that will go to extremes to show their passion. One of the most bizarre stories of the week comes from Dolce & Gabanna’s men’s fashion show at Milan Fashion Week, when a streaker crashed their show, much to the astonishment of the crowd. Reports tell us that the undressed men that walked the catwalk before the incident were of no relation to the streaker -- and were simply part of the show! (Huffington Post)

Sexy Alert: Sexy is her middle name -- Kate Moss was pictured filming an advert in London earlier this week, wearing nothing but a fur white coat and apparently no knickers! If that wasn’t enough she also had a double, wearing the same clothes. And what was on everybody’s mind after seeing these pictures was, why on earth would Kate Moss need a double?? Especially when she is at her best these days... Just last week it was also reported that she will be posing for Playboy Magazine. (Daily Mail)

Trend Spotter: Will 2014 finally be the year of the man-purse? It is according to Gucci’s Spring 2014 men’s RTW collection. And while the clothing look great and very manly, still it’s hard to imagine that this can actually become a real trend amongst real people (not models). The purses are big and roomy and are not so easy to conceal, they actually look pretty good, but you really have to carry a lot of stuff to need a purse like this, which most men don’t. But still wouldn’t it be nice for them to carry our wallets for once? (Styleite)

Designer Special: This week Kanye West introduced North West, his brand new daughter, to the world and after also just releasing his new album (Yeezus), he now plots to make a grand return to fashion as well. In an interview with W magazine, West responds to the criticism on both of his two previous outings in Paris Fashion Week, saying that there were much better than they were received. Apparently, Kanye plans to stage his return to fashion in Milan and meanwhile is focusing on non-high-fashion collections, like a men’s capsule collection of jeans, T-shirts and hoodies for a hip French brand. (Fashionista)

Cool Video Spot: Australian model Miranda Kerr does it again… Kerr will be this season’s model for Net-a-Porter’s swimwear. The former Victoria’s Secret model stars in the brands stunning photoshoot shot by Mariano Vivanco for Net-a-Porter’s EDIT magazine. Take a look:

Fashion Roundup: Miranda Kerr Takes It All Off In Vogue Italia

Cara D. on Vogue China

Cover Shot of the Week: Cover of the week is awarded to the ever fabulous Cara Delevingne, who shines on the cover of Vogue China’s June 2013 issue. This is Cara’s second Vogue cover this year and probably won’t be the last! In the photo Cara is pictured wearing a gorgeous Spring 2013 dress by Burberry. (FashionGoneRogue)

Hot in the News: Hottest event of the week was the Met Gala, where all the stars did their dress-up best and put on a brilliant show for the red carpet. This year’s theme was “punk” and some of the guests really surprised with outrageous looks, while others played it safe. Take a look at 150 great red carpet appearances and judge for yourself who nailed it and who needs to google “punk” and learn more about the era. (Buzzfeed)

Sexy Alert: Miranda Kerr. NAKED. On the beach. In black and white. In Vogue Italia’s May issue. Need we say more? (Fashionising)

Trend Spotter: Punk is where it’s at this month, and we’re going to see this trend develop more and more into mainstream fashion… until it fades away again. The punk trend has been around for some time now, but the recent Met Gala event really pushed the bar higher. Here are three trends that we will be seeing a lot of: Spikes, gloves, and lots of hair colors. (People)

Designer Special: Who owns the “G” trademark stamp in the fashion industry, Gucci or Guess? Apparently no one does. Gucci has previously filed two lawsuits against Guess -- accusing the brand of duplicating Gucci’s logo on a line of shoes. But Gucci recently lost the four-year legal battle against Guess in Milan. (Vogue UK)

Cool Video Spot: What happened to former teen star Miley Cyrus? Ever since her provocative appearance earlier this week on the cover of V Magazine and her recent punk hair style Cyrus is definitely going through some changes -- for the better -- as Cyrus has now been selected by Maxim to feature as No.1 on their “Hot 100” list. Take a look back at Cyrus' fashion transformation:

FashionTV’s Top 10 Power Women In Fashion

Scroll down and see which females we think are flying the flag in fashion.

Karl Lagerfeld once said of Lady Gaga: “I hate average, and she is anything but average,” and nothing could be truer of the 26-year-old American style icon. Gaga is not only recognised on the Forbes 2012 list of world’s most Powerful Women, earning a whopping $52 million last year, but she has totally transformed the female image and attitude towards fashion. With her no-nonsense, risk-taking character and radical attire, Gaga continues to lead the tradition of using clothing as performance art and earned herself the title of FashionTV’s No.1 Power Woman in Fashion.

In the strangest way, when I face more challenges it just makes me stronger. More sure of my mission, of my music. Photo: ?@ladygaga

In September 2012, Gaga featured on the front cover of Vogue for a second time, in their biggest issue of the year.She appeared on the catwalk as a surprise guest at millner to the stars; Philip Treacy’s Spring 2013 show in London.  Launched the “Body Revolution 2013” campaign on her Little Monsters site to encourage women to love their bodies.

Tyra Banks is all brains and all beauty. Not only was she the first African-American to model for Victoria’s Secret and feature as Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition cover girl, but she also has a degree in Business from Harvard University! Banks has since broken into the television industry with hit TV shows like “America’s Next Top Model,” has her own production company, and just been named as the most popular model on social media with over 12 million collective fans! And with an estimated worth of $90 million... next up: it’s world domination!

Tyra Banks poses for New York Magazine

Though she was a socialite and muse to brother Gianni, Donatella Versace took over creative control of the house of Versace when her brother died in 1997 and has since been the driving force behind the fashion empire’s thriving success. She has had a fragrance named after (Blonde), launched the brand’s second line Versus and ingeniously snapped up Christopher Kane to help her in the process. Versace recently brought back the haute couture Atelier line to the Parisian runways after unveiling a critically acclaimed collection for Spring 2012, following  8 years absence. Whatsmore, Versace custom-created all of Lady Gaga’s costumes for the U.S. leg of her world tour, the Born This Way Ball! A true fashion match made in heaven.
