Supermodel Cindy Crawford didn’t have problems maintaining her stunning figure when she was still in her 20s. But now that she’s 41 years old and has two children, she has to work hard to stay slender—and she’s all the happier for it. This way, she said, she appreciates her body even more because of all the effort she makes to keep that same body she bared on the pages of Playboy magazine in the 1990s.
"When I was 23, other women could look at me and say 'Well, she's never had kids'. But now I have and I know what it's like to have to lose baby weight.

Supermodel Heidi Klum has recently given birth, but that didn’t stop jeans maker Jordache from signing her up as the face of its new line of jeans.
A source told Star Magazine that the German supermodel, who also hosts and judges reality TV show Project Runway, recently did a topless advertising campaign shoot for Jordache at the Chateau Marmont hotel in West Hollywood. Klum, however, covered her private parts the entire shoot, said the source.

The Da Vinci Code star Audrey Tautou has been cast to play the lead in an upcoming French biopic of legendary French fashion designer Coco Chanel.
The French actress, who also starred in the Academy Award-nominated film Amelie, will play a young, yet-to-be-famous Coco Chanel in the movie being developed by French director Anne Fontaine, who told Le Film Francais that she wanted “to follow the interior path of this young woman who was poor, without education, but who had an uncommon personality that was ahead of her time,"
Kate Moss - www.dlisted.com
Just a week after Kate Moss launched her own TopShop fashion range, the supermodel has already raked in £3 million for the British high street store. As a matter of fact, a rep for TopShop said sales for the clothing range passed its target’ a long time ago’, and they’re very surprised and excited about its success because it’s the first time the company has embarked on such a partnership.

Anna Wintour - www.style.com
The trial of a New York journalist for kidnapping and sexually molesting a co-worker has turned into something bigger earlier this week following the disclosure of the defendant’s “personal manifesto” that contained his intentions to murder Vogue editor Anna Wintour.
Peter Braunstein, who is alleged to have started a fire and posed as a firefighter to get into his alleged victim’s apartment, wrote in the said manifesto how he wanted to kill Wintour because, in his own words, “I just feel like it”. The manifesto was on a computer disk police found in his rucksack.
Kate Moss - www.songsyoulove.com
Kate Moss is really branching out these days. After launching a new clothing line for TopShop just recently, the supermodel is now setting her sights on launching her own range of hair care products.
Moss will produce the hair care products in collaboration with her friend James Brown. No, not the departed singer, but a celebrity hairdresser who enjoys quite a reputation among celebrity clients which include Madonna and Victoria Beckham.
The hair care range, however, won’t have Kate Moss branding, just the British supermodel’s face on the packaging, a source told The Sun newspaper.

Another celebrity has thrown his hat into the fashion designing ring. The Black Eyed Peas member will.i.am will be launching his own denim fashion line in collaboration with fashion house Blue Holdings Inc.
Dubbed i.am Antik, the rapper’s high-end denim range are set to hit stores in August 2007. The 32-year-old artist, whose real name is William James Adams Jr., apparently knows a thing or two about fashion design, as he was a student at LA’s Fashion Institute of Design prior to success as a member of the chart-topping hip-hop act. And he seems to be pretty excited at the idea of doing his thing in the world of clothing design.

Giorgio Armani may be doing the uniforms of actor Russell Crowe’s rugby team, but not the England football national team’s. Not anymore.
The England football team has dropped the legendary Italian designer as it’s ‘official tailor’, and will now be outfitted with Marks & Spencer suits created by designer Timothy Everest for the next three years.
