STYLE DRAMA

We love when Eva Mendes strikes a pose in fashion ads and magazine covers, and are really pleased with her latest cover shoot. Eva, appearing in a stunning raspberry Gucci Fall 2008 draped gown, landed the September cover of Marie Claire.

Here are some extracts from her interview with the magazine:

On women’s strained friendships with each other:

“I don’t understand women who don’t like being with the girls. They say they’d rather be with the guys all the time? That it’s just so much easier? I’m calling bulls— on that.”

On Annette Bening being a true role model:

“She reminds me of one of those women back in the ‘40s and ‘50s. She’s a broad, and I want to be a broad. I mean, she’s like Ava Gardner or Bette Davis or Katherine Hepburn. Those women were broads. They said it like it was.”

On her life growing up:

“I was raised by parents who didn’t have much. We didn’t use whole pieces of paper towel. We shared, or used rags. Mom didn’t even want us flushing all the time.”

On believing the public doesn’t need to know everything about where she lives and how long she’s been with her boyfriend:

“Think about what this whole culture of celebrity has done to movie stars. It’s made them extinct. Actors used to carry films because people would have to actually go to the movies to see them. It was the only place. But now there’s none of that mystique, and so there’s less of a reason to buy a ticket.”

Steven Meisel is our favorite fashion photographer, and Vogue Italy loves him too. Meisel shot the magazine’s October cover with blonde Russian model Victoriya Sasonkina, who has deep, beautiful blue eyes.

Kate Moss is never shy to show some skin, but in September you can see the model with bared bust in W Magazine’s “Hammam” spread, close to fully nude in Interview Magazine, and posed with a naked man on Purple Fashion’s cover. You’ll be seeing a lot of Kate Moss in September, in more ways than one…

Keira Knightley landed US Vogue’s September cover for the third time.

She may be the fashion star, the pirate queen, or history’s sexiest duchess as Vogue claims, but oh boy, did she pose for Mario Testino coming straight from the shower? What’s with her hair? It looks greasy and plastered on her head.

Is Anna Wintour so blind, she let this cover go through to the newsstands?

We wait for the next issue of Interview every time with excitement. Its covers are always different from the more raffiné Vogue-Elle-Cosmo’s.

One of our favorite models, Jourdan Dunn graced the cover of iD’s September issue. Jourdan’s hairdo for some reason, reminds us of furious Amazons. Anyway, she looks awesome.
