Maximum Impact


Nadine/Supreme. Ph Mario Testino for Gucci FW 03

And for the naysayers on our Industry Forums expressing confusion concerning the "theme" of this season's Gucci ads, here's the backstory.

Eva Forever


Eva H/1 Mgmt. in the NY Post
What was more shocking about that scorching NY Post snap of 1 management's Eva Herzigova on the catwalk for the Dolce y Gabbana S/S 04 men's show? Eva's ever sexy body or the new hair color? Seems the reason for the shift from blonde to brown was for the role in her upcoming film "Modigliani". Eva was cast in the role of Olga, wife of Pablo Picasso in the movie directed by Mick Davis. The film stars Andy Garcia and French actress Elsa Zylberstein. Principal photography wraps tommorow (July 12) and as soon as Ms Herzigova hops back to town, expect an exclusive report from MDC on the picture due for release in November 03.
