In the March 2010 issue of Harper’s Bazaar US, 21-year-old Hungarian cover girl Eniko Mihalik of Elite Models, who recently appeared in an editorial for Vogue China by Alasdair McLellan, is featured in an editorial entitled “Global Warming” where she portrays a military-like scientist attempting to prevent global warming. Shot by photographer Peter Lindbergh, Eniko is set in a desert-like area equipped with all the tools she would need from solar panels and bio diesel to oxygen tanks and test tubes. Eniko would be the most chic scientist in an Aquascutum trench with Sportmaxx booties, a Jil Sander dress and belt, Blumarine jacket, shorts, and sandals, Marc Jacobs belted jacket, sweater, and bloomers, and Jean Paul Gaultier top and skirt. My favorite look is the Jean Paul Gaultier cutout top and army green skirt combining chic and military without looking like costume attire.

Following a military trend, Marie Claire US March 2010 features an editorial entitled “Military Tactics” starring 24-year-old American model Lily Aldridge of IMG in the desert shot by photographer Matt Jones. With some action poses, stylist Isabel Dupre outfits Lily in Ralph Lauren Black Label jacket, shirt, and tank with Ralph Lauren Blue Label jeans and Alexander Wang shoes, Gucci jacket and pants with a Stella McCartney tank, a Balmain dress and Seneca Rising tank with Alexander Wang shoes, a white Fendi dress, Alexander Wang vest, white tank, green tank, and shoes with a Camilla and Marc skirt, a MaxMara coat and Stella McCartney cardigan with a Dsquared2 skirt, and Marc Jacobs ruffle jacket and green shirt with a Kain white shirt and Dr. Martens for Jean Paul Gaultier boots. My favorite item in this editorial is definitely the thigh-high Dr. Martens for Jean Paul Gaultier boots mixing in the tough, military style with some feminine chic.

18-year-old Australian model Myf Shepherd of Next Model Management, who recently appeared in Vogue, Purple, and Numéro magazines, is featured on the cover of the February 2010 issue Dazed & Confused Japan shot by photographer Yasunari Kikuma.

18-year-old Russian model Ranya Mordanova of Supreme Management, who recently appeared in Vogue Italy and Vogue Paris, is featured in an editorial entitled “Fashion’s Raw Edges and Powdery Textures” in the February 2010 issue of Dazed and Confused. Styled by Katie Shillingford, Ranya is shown in a raw coat by Jil Sander, a short-sleeve, pale teal Burberry Prorsum top, a tan trench coat with pink chiffon by Jean Paul Gaultier, and a raw tan Calvin Klein blazer.

The lovely ladies are showcased in pieces that match with black such as a black Dolce & Gabbana mesh bodysuit and dress, a glittered tan Louise Goldin bodysuit, Alexander McQueen’s ‘lobster’ heels in tan, a black coned bra dress by Jean Paul Gaultier, a floor-length black Salvatore Ferragamo evening gown, Balenciaga heels, and a black Dior leather jacket utilizing a plain, all white studio setting.

At Fashion Week in Paris, violence was the statement at Jean Paul Gaultier’s runway show with boxing as the main inspiration showing the wide range in the collection from casual to formal wear. The line is infused with an eclectic mix of silhouettes and pieces inspired from a boxer’s uniform in robe-like outwear, voluminous waistlines, and tapered legs using multi-functional leather giving shape to a variety of ready-to-layer basics and suiting pieces.
