Girls on Film

***Updated 8th November - Video launched today!

Five of the original supermodels — (from left to right) Cindy Crawford, Helena Christensen, Naomi Campbell, Eva Herzigova and Yasmin Le Bon have teamed up with Yasmin's hubby Simon LeBon's band Duran Duran to star in the video for their new single, 'Girl Panic'.
This shoot is chronicled in US Harper's Bazaar's December issue, which also features a slamming shot of the girls bedecked in Dolce and Gabbana on the cover.

The girls cumulatively have quite the pedigree in hanging with the band. Eva was married to Tico Torres from Bon Jovi, Naomi was engaged to Adam Clayton from U2, Helena dated Michael Hutchence and Cindy reportedly dated Jon Bon Jovi. Cindy, Naomi and Helena also appeared together in the famous 'Too Funky' video by George Michael (along with Christy Turlington and Tatjana Patitz).

I was obsessed with Duran Duran and these supermodel growing up. Now in tehir 40's, they still look unbelievable! Duran Duran's keyboardist Nick Rhodes (played by Eva) says "Harper's had approached us about collaborating with the magazine on something really special when the new album came out. I’d had this crazy idea for a video for the song 'Girl Panic!', that looked fantastic on paper, but that I thought in reality would be impossible to pull off. The idea was to re-create a day in the life of the band, with five of the world’s greatest supermodels playing all of us. Lucy Yeomans (editor of Harper's Bazaar UK) loved the idea of doing a cover shoot within the video itself — and so it all began." Even in the behind the scenes pics the girls look fantastic.

Duran Duran were THE coolest band in the 80's. They always wore the best clothes and were extremely easy on the eye.

Check out Duran Duran in The Reflex - this song used to send me into a frenzy of Simon LeBon worship. I aspired to be one of their back-up singers, all pouty in a poured-in black Herve Leger 80's Robert Palmer video-vixen style get-up. Most nonsensical lyrics ever and love the 'CGI' at the end. At the time, it was quite amazing.

Green on the Scene

After having obsession with electric blue, canary yellow then hot pink & orange this year, I am now loving Viridian green. Green caught my eye on the Golden Globes carpet earlier this year, but what really grabbed my attention was Dolce & Gabanna's slinky mermaid-esque jungle green sequined sheath dress which appeared on the cover of UK Vogue September, and has popped up all over the place ever since. There is something so alive about green. My Uncle adores birds and has an amazing array of aviaries. He has the most beautiful colored Rozella parrots - the intense shade of green of their plumage is so striking, a colour like nothing I've ever seen. from J.Lo's famous Jungle Dress by Versace to Keira Knightley's much-coveted bias-cut dress in Atonement, to Kurt Geiger and Gucci's emerald-hued Fall 2011 adds, jungle green has long been an inspiration for designers.
