YSL's Founder Passes Away - Yves Saint Laurent Dies At 71.
Yves Saint Laurent Fall 2007 Collection
Uploaded by coutureforsure on 1 Oct 07, 7.34PM PDT.
And the fashion industry will miss him deeply as Yves Saint Laurent has died at the age of 71 in Paris. Bringing the runway styles that everyone adored, he was a master of the art of fashion. Leaving home to work for Christain Dior at the age of 17, becoming a solider in the French military and even undergoing psychiatric treatment, Laurent rose to the occasion becoming the founder of YSL in 1962 along with partner, Pierre Berge.
Some gave tribute to the designer like his former partner, Pierre Berge - "Chanel gave women freedom. Yves Saint Laurent gave them power. He was someone who was very shy and introverted, who had only very few friends and hid himself from the world.
Like all creators, Yves Saint Laurent had two faces, a public face and a private face.
He no longer liked the world of today's fashion... he said it didn't understand him. He had a great, immense love affair with fashion. It's true that he left the profession, but in a couple you can split up because you must do so ... and still be very unhappy. That was his case."
And in the words of Francois Pinault - "Yves Saint Laurent invented everything, revisited everything, transformed everything to the service of a passion, to let woman shine and to free her beauty and mystery"

We doubt that the supermodel Naomi Campbell is laughing about these days. She has recently been charged with assault. Assault to who? Two police officers! This all began when she was in London at the Heathrow Airport, and there was a dispute about some baggage. Well, she was arrested then last month, and now she is being charged.
There are five charges in total which include disorderly conduct, abusive language to airline crew, assaulting a constable and of course the cop crime of assault.
Poor Naomi. She isn't getting a break. Her temper is off the charts as everyone in the runway world knows, but who can truly stop her. When she's on a roll, she is on a roll. Needless to say, Naomi is furious over the charges.

IDM Wear - I DEFINE MYSELF - Clothing Celebrating YOU Not ME!
The hottest new trend out is more than just simply something fly by night, but it is a clothing line that allows an individual to define oneself literally. Founded by J. Ray, IDM Wear was born from the fact that it's not what you wear but who you are from within that defines everyone. Alas, IDM was conceived not merely as a small concept but as a brand name, sporting "the logo, which is a lowercase i... inside the i is the silhouette of a man or woman. This is symbolic of the fact that who we REALLY are comes from the inside. Furthermore, it is in a contrasting color alluding to the fact that our true self needs to STAND OUT!" - a quote from

Tyra Banks is already known to be that mogul of a model. She has her own production company, supermodel, actress and the list continues to climb with her as a talk show host of her own Tyra Banks Show. Will she add mommy to the list? Looks like she has always thought about it and desired to since a small child, therefore, regardless of whether or not the baby comes from her womb or not, she wants to have one.
Tyra is quoted as saying "I've wanted to adopt since I was nine. I have a connection with children and they don't have to come from my womb for me to have that connection."
This is excellent news and hopefully one day, Tyra can make that additional dream come true.

Heather Kuzwich and the Surprise Ousting From America's Next Top Model
Alright...regardless of who likes it or doesn't..Heather Kuzmich is a born model. Wow is all the we can say here at Runway 411! She didn't make it to her go sees on time which is a major no no in the modeling industry as everyone who has modeled ever knows and Heather already knew. Hey...she couldn't read Chinese, but the girl can read photos.
Honestly, Runway 411 gives her top prize over all the girls when it comes to taking pics. It was like she transformed in front of the camera...no matter how ackward she believed that she was or anyone else. Don't run into natural beauty like that often.
Her attitude was great the entire time and she tried in her runway walk...a bit off...but she walked. At any rate, Runway 411 believes that she still deserves a slot the world of top modeling. She was fabulous at print! However, it seems that when it comes to America's Next Top Model, they want the girl that can do it all! The overall great model.
Runway 411 knows for sure that as far as print work, Heather has it on lock!
Nice to know Heather! Goes to show you...disability doesn't mean disabled by any means.
