Julia Restoin-Roitfeld covers (pregnant) the new i-D
TFS

If you follow my magazine cover posts on Know Wear you will know by now that I am no i-D fan. They always tend to have fairly entertaining covers but the content is usually all over the place and pretty much unreadable. However, every so often they do come up with absolutely genius covers.
Such is the case of the SS12 issue, which features Julia Restoin-Roitfeld pregnant (I believe she is about to pop) and looking stunning in beautiful lingerie styled by maman Carine Roitfeld and shot by Mario Sorrenti – who is at this point close to the Roitfeld's official portraitist.
The Julia's image follows that of Raf Simons, who also covers the magazine's new issue, shot by Willy Vanderperre and styled by Olivier Rizzo. Both covers are apparently the first two of a series of eight (!!) to be released.

How do you like Julia's cover? Are you a fan of i-D?

We all knew Rachel would get pregnant after the last episode of the Rachel Zoe Project. And she had advised us on her not giving up on fashion despite getting heavier. She has totally lived up to her word so far. Endless websites report, half in awe and half in bewilderment, of her choice of 6-inch Brian Atwood platform shoes at 28 weeks pregnant. Personally, I think that Rachel has never looked better, especially after putting on a few pounds. And I love how she has already trademarked a pregnant look: black leggings, black loose top, sun hat, and Givenchy's Antigona bag. It seems like her threat of giving birth in a vintage Chanel kaftan were very much a declaration of intentions. I just hope we get some snaps of the moment.

I'm off.
