Legendary Supermodels: Then and Now

In the 1990s, it was all about the "big six" models, an aesthetically-blessed group that consisted of top earners such as Claudia Schiffer, Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss, Christy Turlington, Linda Evangelista, and Cindy Crawford.
What Supermodels Look Like Now

In the 1990s, it was all about the "big six" models, an aesthetically-blessed group that consisted of top earners such as Claudia Schiffer, Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss, Christy Turlington, Linda Evangelista, and Cindy Crawford.

While a debate exists over who coined the term supermodel, Swedish model Lisa Fonssagrives, who was at the height of her career from the '30s through the '50s, is often credited as the world's first. But many models who came afterward earned legendary status. So to see what some of these famed models are up to now, just read on.

Models Get Their Due at 2009 Costume Institute Gala

>> Hints at the 2009 Costume Institute Gala theme have been swirling since May — first, it was thought to be an ode to Marc Jacobs, and then an ode to fashion muses.  Now that the official announcement has come out, we learn that both subjects are involved, just not quite in the way that was originally thought: the May 4 gala rings in "The Model as Muse," with Marc Jacobs as honorary chair, and Kate Moss, Anna Wintour, and Justin Timberlake as co-chairs.The accompanying exhibit, which runs May 6 to Aug.

>> Hints at the 2009 Costume Institute Gala theme have been swirling since May — first, it was thought to be an ode to Marc Jacobs, and then an ode to fashion muses.  Now that the official announcement has come out, we learn that both subjects are involved, just not quite in the way that was originally thought: the May 4 gala rings in "The Model as Muse," with Marc Jacobs as honorary chair, and Kate Moss, Anna Wintour, and Justin Timberlake as co-chairs.

The accompanying exhibit, which runs May 6 to Aug. 9, will explore the evolution of models and "their roles in projecting and sometimes inspiring the fashion of their respective eras," with special focus on one of the first publicly known models, Marion Morehouse; the first supermodel, Lisa Fonssagrives; fifties mannequins Suzy Parker, Dovima, Sunny Harnett, and Dorian Leigh; sixties icons Jean Shrimpton, Moffitt, Twiggy, and Veruschka; Seventies faces Jerry Hall, Iman, and Janice Dickinson; the supermodel trinity of Linda Evangelista, Christy Turlington, and Naomi Campbell; Nineties “It” girls Kate Moss, Amber Valletta, Nadja Auermann, and Shalom Harlow; and more recently, Gisele Bundchen.

As Harold Koda, curator of the Costume Institute, explained: "We look at the power of clothing, fashion photography and the model to project the look of an era. With a mere gesture, or the line of her body, a truly stellar model can sum up the attitude of her time, creating an alluring synergy between herself and the clothing to communicate a designer’s message to the wider world."

Seventy haute couture and ready-to-wear looks, plus photography, runway images, and video footage of models, rock stars, socialites and actresses who set the tone for each era will emphasize the theme, but most exciting of all — think of all the models who will be representing at the gala.

New Puppy Alert! Janice Dickinson

It's yet another celeb with a new puppy!

It's yet another celeb with a new puppy! Check out Janice Dickinson and this cutie pie frolicking in Malibu over Memorial Day Weekend. She couldn't seem to stop snuggling this pooch and even held the Kaleidoscope leash in her mouth as she put her shoes on when the adventure ended. Sadly, I don't know the name of this Chocolate Lab, and even spotted a video of her refusing to tell a TMZ reporter the new dog's name. But, "puppy X" is still adoro so I've included pictures of them on their beach outing when you read more

Jay-Z Is the Man of the After Hour

After the Kanye show at MSG last night, Jay-Z kept the party going at 1Oak in NYC.

After the Kanye show at MSG last night, Jay-Z kept the party going at 1Oak in NYC. While his lady was spotted leaving the show, there was no sign of her in the party. Perhaps she stayed away from the party scene for a reason? Just a thought. Besides Jay's buddy Diddy, the party was full of the same crowd from the EW post-upfronts bash. Can't blame the former top models and current/future TV stars for wanting to keep celebrating their shows all night long.

Lots more photos including CariDee English, Lydia Hearst, and Sara Ramirez, so just read more

Janice Dickinson Takes a Jab at Tyra

Can everyone leave Jennifer Love Hewitt alone?

Can everyone leave Jennifer Love Hewitt alone? Hells no. They throw her on magazine covers and discuss her on morning news programs, as if her body weight is the most important thing on our national agenda. Surprisingly, Janice Dickinson has something nice to say about Jen. Unsurprisingly, she goes out of her way to transfer the insult to Tyra. Meow!

When Do You Think Janice Looked Better?

I think Janice Dickinson is hilarious, and America's Next Top Model hasn't been the same without her.

I think Janice Dickinson is hilarious, and America's Next Top Model hasn't been the same without her. This weekend, she hosted the Reality Cares Reality AllStars Charity Event, where she looked markedly different than she did in October 2006 (at right). Janice has been open about having had cosmetic procedures done, but I think she looks more attractive when she's got a few laugh lines (and either way, she has great hair). What do you think?

Caption It, Sugar: WWJS (What Would Janice Say)?

We had so much fun with your fant-ass-tic comments on Hugh Grant that we've decided to do another Caption It, Sugar contest.

We had so much fun with your fant-ass-tic comments on Hugh Grant that we've decided to do another Caption It, Sugar contest. This time we've got Janice Dickinson, who obviously had something to say about something in between bites of a pinkberry treat the other day. Janice is never ever one to mince words, and apparently this time she was running her mouth about Paris. Don't let that limit you! You never know what will come out of that woman's mouth!

The user who can provide the wittiest comment (as judged by Pop and Molly) will win a sweet piece of Sugar Swag! Good luck and happy captioning!
