Kate Moss and other celebrity friends (including Sienna Miller and Lily Allen) attended the funeral of Tarka Cordell (the 40-year-old musician, writer and model who committed suicide last week) in London on Sunday (May 11).
Here’s Siri Tollerod’s beautiful editorial in the May 2008 issue of Vogue Italy magazine. I love the fairytale atmosphere, and the cats are adorable!
Alessandra Ambrosio is on the cover of Arena magazine’s June 2008 issue (and inside the mag, in a very sexy and racy photoshoot).
These photos were obviously shot before Alessandra got pregnant - as you can see, her stomach is flat as a board. If you want to see some candid pictures of Alessandra’s baby bump (she’s around five months pregnant by now), click here.

British fashion magazine i-D has devoted its entire May 2008 issue (with six different covers) to Agyness Deyn, calling her the “new face of Britain”.
With her elfin white blonde hair, endless legs and knife-like cheekbones, she’s the hottest new girl on the block.
Hailed as a modern-day Kate Moss, at 5ft 9in she’s two inches taller, nine years younger… and way cooler.
Demand for her is huge. Agyness is the multi-million-pound face - and body - of Mulberry and Burberry and a Vogue cover girl.
Even if she’s the biggest model of the moment right now, Agyness insists she leads a (more or less) regular life. Here’s what she said about her size and food preferences:
“I’m no size-zero. I still eat fish and chips. And pizza. It’s my favourite food and they do the best ones in New York. “People think models starve themselves but not me. I eat really normally.
I think it’s important to be healthy, and for that you are allowed a little bit of everything. If you eat too much you put on weight, if you have a happy medium you stay the same. Every thing in moderation, Especially pizza!
I work out, not avidly, I don’t work out every day. I do yoga, I’ve just started and I love it.” Indeed. Her perfect skin belies the fact that she loves to party - nightclubbing with celebrity chums Lily Allen and Kelly Osbourne.
You can read more from Agyness‘ first newspaper interview with the Sunday Mirror here.
14-year-old Polish model Monika Jagaciak was banned from the catwalk at Australian Fashion Week amid continuing controversy over the sexualisation of young girls in the fashion industry.
A photo-shoot of Monika Jagaciak by Australian Vogue was also called off after the editor said she had not realised the Polish teenager’s age.
Organisers of Australian Fashion Week in Sydney banned all under-16s from the catwalk after furious public debate over the use of youngsters in an industry already under fire over anorexia and drug use.
It follows a similar decision ahead of London Fashion Week last September and brings the Australian event into line with shows in other leading cities. [Daily Mail]
