Kim Kardashian's SKIMS' First Year Anniversary Campaign by Vanessa Beecroft

Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS shapewear in a hundred shades of skin tones (exaggeration, people) celebrates its first anniversary on September 10. I can’t help thinking about fashion being the second biggest polluter in the world, seeing KKW in a bottomless pit of SKIMS, but the woman is meeting a very real range of body sizes and skin color needs.

Kardashian released a campaign featuring celeb friends and eight lucky customers who are honored with their SKIMS submits..

Vanessa Beecroft shot the campaign featuring Addison Rae, Amelia Gray, Delilah Belle Hamlin, Jodie Turner-Smith, La La Anthony, Precious Lee, Rumer Willis, and Yovanna Ventura — all wearing their SKIMS.

Irina Shayk, Joan Smalls Front VS Bombshell Fragrance Campaign by Zoey Grossman

Top models Irina Shayk and Joan Smalls link arms to promote Victoria’s Secret’s ‘Bombshell’ fragrance. Zoey Grossman captures the duo who also had creative input on the shoot.

“We really gave a piece of ourselves to this campaign: It’s me being me, and Joan being Joan,” Irina says about the shoot about ‘Bombshell’ and its mouth-watering fragrance notes of Shagri-la Peony, Purple Passionfruit, and Vanilla Orchid.

So, ladies. Is Bombshell your fragrance now? On a positive note, from what I understand, half of Joan Smalls’ personal share of her fee for the Bombshell shoot will support Black Lives Matter organizations for the rest of 2020. And THAT is a good move, Joan.
