Tinsley Mortimer has many titles, most notably socialite, handbag designer, and fashionista. The New York social darling joins the ranks of Sharon Stone and Charlize Theron as a Dior beauty ambassador. Her role will include offering ideas to marketing and celebrity makeup artists, as well as hosting events and launches.
Quite impressive Mrs. Mortimer. Want to throw some freebies our way?

Christina Cavalli certainly isn't living in her father Roberto's shadow. Christina, the company's newly appointed CEO, is putting together big plans, including considering new licensing, cosmetics, plus a sports and home collection. While I personally may not find their clothes that appealing, I am quite interested in what a Cavalli cosmetic line would include.
After previous offers could never reach an agreement, Cavalli is considering also an IPO. “To grow and strengthen our business, an IPO would be more in line with our strategies, compared to selling part of the company to new partners,” said Christina Cavalli.
In more expansion news, a Just Cavalli dedicated boutique will open on Fifth Avenue in August. Just Cavalli is the company's most profitable licensing venture, with an expected increase of 40% in 2007.

The Couture shows are extravagant, elaborate, and inspiring. It comes as no surprise that John Galliano has plans to show Christian Dior Couture in the Orangerie at Versailles to celebrate the houses 60th anniversary. Models have already been informed of a call time 8 hours prior to the show, leaving us imagining what sort of spectacle Galliano has planned. The last Dior show held at the Orangerie was the "Matrix" show of 1999.
John Galliano isn't the only Couture craftsman with big plans for July. Celebrating his 45th anniversary, Valentino is inviting the A-List to Rome for a huge celebration on July 7.

Images are emerging from Scarlett Johansson's Fall 2007 campaign with Louis Vuitton. Comparing these to the Spring 2007 images, I find myself quite bored. The colors are brighter, but there is nothing revolutionary. While old Hollywood glamour may never go out of style, it certainly becomes boring at the hands of Louis Vuitton. What do you think?

Harpers Bazaar must be desperate for newsstand sales. After putting celebutards Paris & Nicole on the cover of their July issue (a hotly discussed topic), the magazine attempted to dress up and class up the two trashy ladies. Wrapping a bag of trash in Chanel still doesn't change the fact that it's a bag of trash.
