Italian Vogue takes it to the streets

Unexpected? You bet!

The Wallflower Interview: Megan

Megan is in Austin and is a budding musician.

How old are you?

I'm 15 and a sophmore in high school, it's really exciting. This year is gonna be a good year for me, I can feel it.

Why do you want to model?

I've been interesting in modeling since I started watching America's Next Top Model and seeing all the girls get all dressed up and wacked out with make-up. And getting behind a camera to take gorgeous pictures, it made me want to be a part of that world.

Aren't you a musician?

I'm not in a band but I played in middle school band, as a percussion player. I'm not in high school band, but I still play the drums. Me and some of my friends are semi-working on getting a band together.

Favorite thing about modeling?

My favorite part would have to be getting ready for a shoot, getting my hair and make-up done and wearing cool clothing. And meeting new people!

Favorite models or fashion magazines?

My favorite model would have to be Heidi Klum. She is just so beautiful and talented and has had a modeling career for a long time. It would be really cool to meet her and get a few pointers from her about the modeling business. Magizine wise I never really read mags, I was more of a book worm, so I really don't have a favorite mag.

Beauty buzz: Bleached eyebrows

We heart Lara Stone for working it out:

Hey, even Adriana is doing it! A Lima in the new Givenchy campaign.

New face: Astin

Our newest Wallflower is, well, hardly a wallflower. The curly-haired golden boy is 17 and a senior in high school.

Smile!



Serious.



BAM!

Outtakes: Allegra shoots with Steve Visneau

The final results are coming soon. Stay tuned to see how our little wallflower will blossom!

Tammy's thoughts on The September Issue

What does Wallflower President Tammy think about the September Issue? Tammy's worked on HUNDREDS of shoots throughout the years and totally identifies with Grace...



"I can’t say enough about how good this documentary for anyone working in the fashion industry. I have never seen a movie about what I do that so closely exemplifies the pace of the work, the passion for the clothing and imagery, the emotional drama of being involved in this business. Grace Coddington is so real, so honest, so brilliant. When she explains why a photo is hazy or soft, and why that can make a great shot, why it makes sense, I felt like those exact words had come out of my mouth before. And when Anna slashes her editorials, removing shots that Grace feels are important, her reactions are so familiar. Losing a great shot is a little like losing a part of you. You become emotionally attached to those shots because you were there feeling it while it was happening. Of course, the movie shows Anna’s brilliance as an editor. Why there needs to be someone who is not emotionally attached to the shots, who can sit back and make that decision without batting an eye. It’s such a familiar dynamic in this business where creative people who are highly sensitive and intuitive coexist and clash. Grace steals the show, but you leave thinking about Anna’s relationship with her father and her daughter, and the little moments in the movie that reveal so much about her and the powerful position she holds."

Celebrating in style

Our women's director turns the big 3-0 today! Happy Birthday Brenda!!!  

Muse of the moment: Grace Coddington

The Wallflower team got to see an early screening of THE SEPTEMBER ISSUE last week and all we have to say is WOW!

Grace Coddington steals the show as Vogue's creative director, and the true heart of the movie.

We're equally mesmerized by her as a model back in the day...
