2009 Gap Design Editions Campaign Images

As previously reported, Alexander Wang has designed a khaki motorcycle jacket for the Gap, as part of the brand's 2009 Gap Design Editions.

The Gap has previously collaborated with nominees from the CFDA/Vogue fashion fund, where the designers had to put their own spin on the traditional white button down shirt.

This time, however, the designers were offered the opportunity to re-interpret a different Gap classic - the Khaki.

2008 Fashion Fund Winners Albertus Swanepoel and Vena Cava (Lisa Mayock and Sophie Buhai), along with Wang, designed numerous khaki pieces including jackets, dresses and hats.

The print campaign for the collaboration features models Coco Rocha, Raquel Zimmerman, Anna J, and Arlenis posing with the designers.

The collection will be available in stores and online on June 16th, with items ranging from $39.50-$88.

Nike Women’s Gladiator Mid

Designed by Art Center College student Nancy Wu for Nike as a part of the Re-Mix & Re-Cut program for spring/summer 2009, and available at Collette for $125 CAD.

Love it!

Quote of the Day

"I think now all the girls look very ugly. I saw the pictures of the Metropolitan gala evening [in New York] last week and I never saw something more ugly, all the girls have their legs out with the most terrible proportions. I have so many ideas I could design a collection in two days but don't miss it at all."

Chace Crawford to star in Footloose remake

Move over Kevin Bacon!

Paramount Pictures confirmed yesterday that Chace Crawford will star in the Footloose remake.

The Gossip Girl hunk was offered to play the lead role of Ren McCormack, after Zac Efron turned down the role in March.

"I want to grow a bit with the types of movies I want to make," Efron said in April. "It was more along the lines that I was looking for a new challenge, and this was another musical."

The film will be produced and directed by Kenny Ortega, who also directed High School Musical.

Hayden Panettiere, Amanda Bynes and Julianne Hough have also auditioned for the movie.

Footloose will begin shooting in March 2010.

In case you missed it...

Shawn Johnson and Mark Ballas performed an amazing freestyle during last night's Dancing with the Stars finale!

The concept, the costumes, the choreography! All amazing.

I especially loved the JabbaWockeeZ reference at the beginning! Only Mark would do that!

The pair were the only contestants to score a perfect 30 for this round.

The winner of DWTS will be crowned tonight.

Let's hope Shawn and Mark win that mirror ball trophy!
