Diddy x Anna Wintour Cordially Invite Y.O.U. To Vogue's "Fashion's Night Out" @ Diddy.Com.

CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: So what this video post is a day late and a dollar short, Diddy still continues to impress! Now, how Sean John factors into the hallowed Haute Couture pages of American Vogue magazine is beyond me, but, an online audience with former anti-media-ice-queen-turned-active-spotlight-sponsor Anna Wintour is a fashion culture coup d'état worthy of Livestyle coverage! This is Christopher Wallace B.I.G.! Good shit!

Hitting Newsstands Nextweek: Rihanna Covers The Vogue Italia (Couture Supplement) September 2009 Issue.

CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: With all of the très chic female buzz cuts and the militantly cut angular silhouettes popping up in collections on runways across the world, this obviously Grace Jones inspired Rihanna cover for Vogue Italia September 2009 is right on time!

Although only for the annual couture supplement feature and not the coveted main Vogue Italia cover, this androgynously avant-garde shoot captured by the incredible lens of New York based fashion photographer and all around auteur Steven Klein, is a brilliant case study in trendy transcendentalism. Yes, this smashing "Extreme Couture" black and white vision in Valentino is something a lot like "Memories Of The Future" homie - word to Erich Von Daniken. Google it!

Preview: American Vogue Editor-In-Chief Anna Wintour Interview @ 60 Minutes Air Date: Sunday 05/17/09 @ 8PM EST = The Coldest Wintour Ever.

"Video: A Preview of Anna Wintour on 60 Minutes

60 Minutes is definitely airing the Anna Wintour piece they've been working on for the past six months this Sunday. And the news program just released the first footage of the editor in all of her glory, days away from the debut of the 12-minute segment. The 45-second scene shows Wintour with her staff, and it's just a preview of what's to come. And given that we've spied correspondent Morley Safer and his production team following around Anna at the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Awards in November, Fashion Week in New York, Milan, and Paris in February and March, and last week's Met gala, we can't wait to see the rest of the footage made it in the piece. But, alas, we'll have to wait until this Sunday at 7 p.m."

CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: To the ears of mere mortals, the very mention of the name Anna Wintour sounds like a Haute Couture hymn trumpeted from the heights of the Heavens ... or the depths of Hell, depending on whom Y.O.U. ask ... lol. Her legendary layout of a life lived in public, but, not of it, conjures up visions of days filled with vicious American Vogue editorial staff meeting lashings of her publishing peasants compliments of a custom made supple Italian leather Fendi brand cat O' nine tails whip balanced against Moët champagne flute noted nights spent spewing career making or breaking fashion reviews from her runway ruling class section perched alongside her gloriously extravagant P.artner N. C.rime and Vogue Editor-At-Large, André Leon Talley.

The personification of the frigid indifference and been-there-done-that-therefore-I-am-flyer-than-thou attitude that lesser executives, stylists and basic fashionphiles desperately attempt to affect and reflect in their comparatively unimpressive daily lives, Anna Wintour is the white widow whose spun silk wishes determine which of next seasons collections make it to the prized windows of such high end retailers as Bergdorf Goodman's and Saks. I mean, Anna Wintour was the inspiration for the Plum Sykes (NOTE: She is a former personal assistant of Ms. Wintour) bestseller "The Devil Wears Prada" which, when turned into a Hollywood feature cinematique, starred Meryl Streep as Miranda Priestly, a fashion editor widely believed to be based on Wintour.

Anyway, after over 20 years @ the helm of American Vogue (The flagship of the Vogue Magazine empire) as Editor-In-Chief, her material majesty - apparently now done with shunning the media and turning a pointed nose up @ the internet - permitted the esteemed 60 Minutes CBS T.V. news journal a once in a lifetime interview profiling her comings and goings atop the fashion world.

A concrete air-date has not been given, however, as the Sunday May 17th episode of 60 Minutes is the last offering before their Summer 2009 hiatus, this segment highlighting Anna Wintour and her elegant eminence has got to hit the screen NOW! DVRs: Ready. Set. Go!

Terry Richardson x Louis Vuitton For French Vogue 2009 Calendar = 12 Months Of Fashion Smut.

"The December/January issue of French Vogue is worth splurging on. It comes with a 2009 calendar, featuring fourteen models wearing Louis Vuitton lingerie and shoes, styled by Carine Roitfeld and shot by Terry Richardson. Eniko Mihalik graces the cover as a sexy cat, Jourdan Dunn poses as a sexy nurse, and Lakshmi Menon plays a naughty bunny, as you see at left. Fashionologie has all fourteen images (warning: NSFW)."

CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: The enigmatic sultan of sexy snapshots, Terry Richardson, has once again lent his lasciviously candid, yet completely high fashion, aesthetic to French Vogue and guest editor Princess Stephanie of Monaco. The Verizon Yellow Pages sized December/January issue of French Vogue now has the dual distinction of being both an ad packed fashionista handbook and a titillating timekeeper of a calendar for 2009 courtesy of Terry Richardson and Louis Vuitton.

In the midst of this politically correct eco-friendly climate change that the world is experiencing, Vogue Magazine has just given us 1 more reason to save and hold on to this issue for a little while longer. Hey, we've all got a part to play homie. Y.O.U. already know.
