Misshapes' Leigh Lezark at IMG.

(Lezark from The Sartorialist)

I was excited to hear that Leigh from the Misshapes has signed to IMG. She has been such a style icon for so many years, I'm surprised no one has gotten her to sign up sooner.

She always looks great whenever I've seen photographs of her. Especially the photo above from Scott Schuman. She always looks so cool and serious and rarely do we get to see her smile.

I'll be looking forward to see who is going to book her this coming season.

Paris BANS thin models.

(Natasha Poly from V Magazine)


The National Assembly in France passed a bill that would imprison someone for up to 3 years and up to $70,000 to anyone who "incited excessive thinness." The bill that was passed on Tuesday hopes to stop pro-annorexia in magazines, websites and blogs. "However, it's unclear how the law would apply to ads, magazine spreads, and runway shows, nor has it been defined what "excessive thinness" means — which is why the fashion industry thinks none of this will really apply to them no matter what," says NY Magazine. To make it become a law it has to pass to the Senate.

This bill is too vague and it will probably run into a lot of problems, but at least they are trying to do something about it.
