dear editors-in-chief...love Clare




Many a fashionista has waited with baited breath for the triumphant return of the supermodel.

But alas, we continually buy our favorite fashion mags only to be greeted by the less-than-enthralling face of the latest, greatest actress. *cue yawn*

Since 2010 has just begun, I would like to challenge the Fashion Industry.

Let's bring back the supermodel, shall we?

Would it kill Elle, Vogue, Allure, W and the like to put a model on the cover?

I think not.


What is your 2010 Fashion Wish?

I agree, I am so sick of everyone trying to be a triple threat plus. Let people have their unique qualities for their true strengths and stop hogging every talent outlet possible.
i.e
Not every dancer has to also be a singer, model, fashion designer, perfume designer, actress etc....

It is just getting ridiculus!!!

I wholeheartedly agree!! By the way, my word verification is "modelist" - a sign from above, perhaps?

I want to see supermodels too. I had too much of actresses on the covers.

Agreed!! More fashion & less celebrity for 2010 ;-)

(not gossip tho, celeb gossip I will read any day LOL)

I'm jumping on board with this fashion wish. I don't follow actresses too much; I would much rather see supermodels gracing the covers of my favorite magazines!! :)

I agree! I love celebrities as much as the next person but I love them in US weekly more than in Vogue covers. I will read the articules bc at least I know the articles are legitimate but I miss the days of Claudia, Naomi, Christy, Cindy and Linda on the covers...yeah, I love the 90s:)

I must say that I agree, really good post! : )

I have felt that way for so long now-- esp when W even succumbed to the celeb. And who's that on Harper's Bazzar's cover this month. Miley Cyrus. Yeesh. Fashion forward? Not so much.

I hadn't even realized that till now, Clare! I've grown so accustomed to seeing actresses it hadn't dawned on me that I haven't seen a supermodel on the cover in so long!
