We showed you a preview of GIsele Bundchen and Danny Schwarz in the new Colcci campaign by David Simms.  Now the campaign has been released and  as usual we  love any excuse to post about Danny Schwarz.

Vogue has  a tradition of dedicating  issues to models. Last year an Issue of Vogue Paris was dedicated to  Lara Stone and Arthur Sales recently had an issue of Vogue Hommes.  Vogue Russia has followed this trend by having Naomi Campbell  guest edit and appear on the cover of the  Russian Vogue April 2010.

The cover was shot by Steven Meisel and the issue features editorials by Solve Sundsbo, and Mario Testino.

When questioned about why she dedicated an entire issue to Naomi Campbell, Aliona Doletskaya said:

“I wanted to debunk a few myths surrounding Naomi. When I suggested the concept, she immediately came and for an hour and a half laid out stories, photography, interviews and other sections. Clearly, quickly and in a businesslike manner.”

This  year Liberty has collaborated with Fred Perry, Target, Nicholas Kirkwood  and Mac Cosmetics . The latest designer to collaborate with the brand is  Manolo Blahnik. He will curate the LIberty store store's Christmas decorations and window displays, in addition to selling his AW2011 collection from a pop-up shop  for three months.With regard to the popup shop Manolo Blahnik had the following to say:

"I hate that word – pop-up – it's so spitty. But it's the first time I've done anything like it and I'm a bit terrified, but I'm doing it because I love this building and I've been using Liberty prints forever."

i-D has released shots of their new Spring cover featuring models Natalia Vodianova, Sasha Pivovarova and Freja Beha Erichsen. The  covers were shot by Paolo Roversi and were a major improvement from their last cover.

The new look follows the appointment of Art Director Christopher Simmonds, “I want to focus on great photography, whether through established names, or new talent such as Pierre,” says Simmonds. “When I think back, I remember so many great covers from Terry Richardson’s blood donor shoot, to Eminem smoking a bong, to the amazing Alexander McQueen-edited issue.
