THE FASH PACK

Since her debut in 2004, our favourite Canadian supermodel has fronted a variety of advertising campaigns and covered many high fashion magazines. But it seems that’s not enough for this ambitious 21-year-old. Rocha is now gearing up for another “Coco Moment” in the fashion industry. This Wednesday, she declared on her blog Oh So Coco that she will be launching a clothing range. In her posted video, capturing snippets of Coco sketching in her apartment, she said:  “Hey everybody, welcome to my blogspot, Oh So Coco. As many of you know, I’ve been in this industry for quite some time as a model. I have decided to start my own line! So this is where you come in, I need your suggestions on what my line’s name should be. So please leave your comments and I’ll be happy to look at your suggestions."

So far, she’s received over 160 comments, suggesting some very strange names indeed. “Volubilis”, “Oleander” and “Tuque” to name a few. Someone even suggested “Stepdancer”, supposedly linked in with Coco’s love of Irish step dancing (during Jean Paul Gaultier’s A/W 2007 show Rocha opened by Irish-dancing down the catwalk). But mainly it seems her fans think she should keep it simple and easily recognisable with ideas along the lines of “Oh So Coco”, “Coco Rocha” or “Coco Couture”. Check out her blog if you think you can do better.

You know London Fashion Week really is creating buzz all over the city when even Madame Tussauds is getting in on things. Starting Sept. 15, just three days before fashion week, the wax museum will open a specially themed area with a brand new Kate Moss.

The supermodel made her museum debut two years ago, but she'll change her wardrobe for the exhibition. She currently sports an LBD but will upgrade to a gold evening gown with shorter hair and more dramatic makeup. Also in the exhibition will be Tyra Banks, with a red-carpet-ready black gown with feathers.

70s supermodel Naomi Sims tragically lost her battle to cancer yesterday at the tender age of 61. Many feel that the model was responsible for breaking racial boundaries in the modelling world and was among one of the first black models to be represented by Wilhemina.

In her lifetime, Sims modelled for designers such as Halston and graced the covers of both Interview and Cosmopolitan.

According to The Cut, two photographers of Sims are featured in The Model As Muse exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Modelinia has put together a countdown video honouring the five cutest model-puppy pairings, and (save for a few seconds at the very beginning), it's the most adorable thing I've seen in ages. Besides my pet papillon, of course.

Chanel Iman has an especially excitable dog called Louie Dior who doesn't appear happy to sit on Santa's lap, and Daisy Lowe puts her pup in a tuxedo for a dance party. What I'm saying is, if you're a dog person, just watch.

If Gisele's pregnancy hadn't been all over the magazines and internet for the past few months, then we'd never believe she was expecting based on this new London Fog ad. It seems the supermodel's growing belly was Photoshopped out of the seductive campaign to "respect her privacy". Although Karolina Kurkova seems pretty pleased with her mum-to-be stomach, as does Adriana Lima, Gisele apparently would like to steer clear for now.

Speaking of Gisele's ad campaigns, Grazia have speculated that the model's pregnant shape might have kept her out of the Rampage ads. Bar Refaeli replaced her, maybe because both labels' parent company, Iconix, wanted to do a little switcheroo?

Gisele also has signed on to host a "kids-friendly webisode series" called GiGi & The Green Team, which will star an animated version of Gisele who's a supermodel by day and a superhero environment-protector by night. The series will start on AOL this autumn, and Gisele's baby is due a few months later in December.

Lara Stone isn't the only one getting all of the love. It looks like she has competiton for Carine Roitfeld's heart with French Vogue favourite Daria Werbowy. It's no secret that Roitfeld has a soft spot for the supermodel. Let's just say that she is to French Vogue what Caroline Trentini is to American Vogue.

With that in mind, it was hardly a suprise when it was announced that, like it did with Lara Stone, French Vogue is dedicating an entire issue to Werbowy for August.

Check back this week for all of the pictures.
