Blackshine has uploaded splendid scans from the "Special Models" October issue of W, in fact a giant portfolio from Mario Testino. There are great pictures of Eugenia Volodina and Filippa Palmstierna , but the real treat is to compare the two CK girls - ousted model of the house Jessica Miller, and newcomer Natalia Vodianova. They are even photographed in the same pose! You can see that Jessica is a cool chick, while Natalia is a troubling beauty (I know she has a child herself, but most of the pics are playing on the dangerous ground of woman-child). Judge for yourself: Blackshine Gallery

Update: Jessica is unstoppable - she has a great ed in the new Numero. I'll try to scan it soon.

You probably remeber this advance copy I posted of a mysterious ad with Sharon Genish. Well, the secret is out - billboards all over the Metro reveal the ad is for the new Versace Jeans Couture perfumes (his and hers). We should probably see Sharon confined to the Jeans Couture line, while oldies but goodies like Linda etc will do the more prestigious lines of Versace. In times of recession, advertisers don't take any risks.
