Chanel Iman, Not Just a Pretty Face

by Oliver, France

Is there more about Chanel Iman than meets the eye?  When she is walking around, prancing around and posing in front of a crowd of photographs on the golden runway, wearing beautiful clothes made by the best designers from the whole world, we just see another new gorgeous American beauty, is that all we can say about her, or can we investigate a little bit more and discover very interesting things in her life, or is her life just boredom ?

First of all we can notice that she sometimes looks Afro-American, then on other pictures, displaying a large white teethed smile, her shiny cheekbones showing her happiness at wearing marvellous dresses and getting her endless legs covered with bright sheer tights or smooth stockings, she looks more Asian but still black, we are a little bit puzzled about it.

It is thanks to her aunt that she could become a model.  At the age of 13 Chanel’s aunt took her to California to meet with modelling agencies and as a result Chanel signed up with Ford Models.

What about her name, it sounds weird, not American at all, Arabian?  Her real first name is Robinson, just like that of a cast away seaman Robinson Crusoe on an isolated island, who after rambling around finally met his companion named “Friday”.  But our Robinson Chanel Iman is not alone at all right now, she is even invited to the White House parties by the current president of the United States, Barack Obama.

Is she a new Marylin Monroe, a new American President’s lover, a new coming icon, is a new romance on its way in the White House?  What about Robinson’s private life?  I guess not, she is not living with a companion like Friday.

By the way, her first name, Chanel, was chosen by her mother.  While pregnant, she had a book with her about Coco Chanel, hopefully for us for these days she had no book about Karl Lagersfeld.

Her father used to be a professional basketball player and already earned a lot of money with that sport by the time she went to school.  Our princess girl was not compelled of working hard at school, she was a real beauty.  Nowadays Atlanta is a very progressive and tolerant place.  For example, they have a very big and active gay community and about 1 in 5 residents is part of the LGBT community.

Being a modern girl in a modern city, Chanel Iman recently started her internet blog and is now involved in a Kinect game on Xbox.  We could say she is rather a business woman and not just a beautiful dummy.  She is a rare combination of pretty and smart.

In German:

Chanel Iman – Mehr als ein hübsches Gesicht

Steckt hinter Chanel Iman mehr, als es den Anschein hat? Wenn sie vor einer Meute von Fotografen
am goldenen Runway schreitet, stolziert oder posiert und dabei schà?ne Kleider der besten Designer
der Welt trà?gt, sehen wir eine neue atemberaubende amerikanische Schà?nheit. Ist das schon
alles was man ГѓВјber sie sagen kann? Vielleicht kà?nnen wir ein bisschen tiefer graben und dabei
interessante Dinge über ihr Leben erfahren – oder ist ihr Leben gar pure Langeweile?

Zuallererst stellen wir fest, dass sie oft einen afro-amerikanischen Eindruck macht, dann aber wiederum sehen wir auf anderen Bildern, wo sie ihr strahlendes Là?cheln zeigt und ihre glà?nzenden Wangenknochen ihre Freude darГѓВјber verraten, wunderbare Kleider tragen zu dГѓВјrfen, ihre endlosen
Beine in hell glà?nzende Strumpfhosen oder sanfte StrГѓВјmpfe zu hГѓВјllen, dass sie eher asiatisch, aber dennoch schwarz aussieht, was uns doch ein wenig ratlos zurГѓВјcklà?sst.

Da fragen wir uns doch, wo kommt dieses sГѓВјГѓЕёe Mà?dchen, bei diesem exotischen Aussehen her? Nun, wir erfahren recht schnell, dass sie zum Teil koreanisch und zum Teil afro-amerikanische Wurzeln hat. Ihre koreanische Mutter stammt aus Seoul, ihr Vater ist Afro-Amerikaner. Sollte man jemals nach Los Angeles kommen, dann wà?re es eine gute Idee das Bekleidungsgeschà?ft ihrer Mutter – The Red Bag Boutique – das diese mit der Hilfe ihrer Tochter erà?ffnet hat, zu besuchen.

Dank ihrer Tante wurde Chanel ein Model. Mit 13 wurde sie von ihrer Tante nach Kalifornien zu einem Treffen mit Modelagenturen gebracht, wo Chanel bei Ford Models unterzeichnete.

Aber was ist mit ihrem Namen, der ist doch auch ungewà?hnlich und ГѓВјberhaupt nicht amerikanisch, mà?glicherweise arabisch? Ihr wahrer erster Vorname ist Robinson, nach dem SchiffbrГѓВјchigen Seefahrer Robinson Crusoe, der lange alleine ausharren muss, bis er sich mit „Freitag" anfreundet.
Aber unsere Robinson Chanel Iman ist derzeit ГѓВјberhaupt nicht allein, ganz im Gegensatz, sie wird unter dem aktuellen US-Prà?sidenten Barack Obama sogar zu Feiern ins WeiГѓЕёe Haus eingeladen.

Ist Michelle eifersГѓВјchtig? Das kà?nnen wir nicht sagen, aber wenn ich sie wà?re, wà?re ich schon besorgt, wenn ich zusehen mГѓВјsste, wie dieses schicke Mà?del nach Hause eingeladen wird und sie womà?glich auch noch in einem hГѓВјbschen, eng an ihren HГѓВјften liegenden Kleid und in schà?nen, seidigen pinken strumpfhosen auf ihren Zehenspitzen versucht die Spitze des Weihnachtsbaums des WeiГѓЕёen Hauses zu dekorieren.

Ist sie gar eine neue Marilyn Monroe und damit eine neue Prà?sidenten-Geliebte, eine neue Ikone, bahnt sich gar eine Romanze im WeiГѓЕёen Haus an? Was ist mit ihrem Privatleben? Ich denke nicht, sie lebt ohne einen Gefà?hrten wie Freitag.

ГѓЕ“brigens, ihren Vorname, Chanel, hat sich ihre Mutter ausgesucht. Wà?hrend der Schwangerschaft las sie ein Buch ГѓВјber Coco Chanel, gottseidank hatte sie damals keines ГѓВјber Karl Lagerfeld dabei.

Ihr Geburtsort ist Atlanta, eine Stadt mit hohem Anteil an Afro-Amerikanern tief im amerikanischen SГѓВјden. Trotzdem sollte man sich davon nicht in die Irre fГѓВјhren lassen und glauben sie wà?re eine arme BaumwollpflГѓВјckerin gewesen, die auf dem Feld zusammen mit Whoopie Goldberg von morgens bis abends schwitzen und dabei von miesen weiГѓЕёen Bossen auch noch schlecht behandelt wird, ganz soals wà?re das eine Szene aus dem Film „Die Farbe Lila".

Ihr Vater war nà?mlich ein Profi-Basketballer und verdiente in dem Sport schon gut zu der Zeit, als sie noch zur Schule ging. Unsere kleine Prinzessin musste sich in der Schule nicht anstrengen, sie war eine echte Schà?nheit. Heutzutage ist Atlanta ohnehin ein fortschrittlicher und toleranter Ort. So gibt es dort beispielsweise eine groГѓЕёe und umtriebige Gay community und sogar jeder fГѓВјnfte Einwohner gehà?rt der LGBT community an.

Wie es zu einem modernen Mà?dchen in einer modernen Stadt passt, hat Chanel Iman vor kurzem auch einen Blog gestartet und wirkt auch bei einem Kinect-Spiel auf der Xbox mit. Wir kà?nnen daher wohl sagen, dass sie mehr von einer Geschà?ftsfrau als von einer dumpfen Schà?nheit hat. Sie ist eine der seltenen Kombinationen aus hГѓВјbsch und smart.

Pantyhose Models from WamInStyle and Holiday Greetings

Written by Jessica

My friends, if you like to see some photos of pantyhose models, I recommend to visit WamInStyle website.  I even had a pleasure of meeting them this summer when I was visiting Russian and we even collaborated on a photoshoot.

Their main theme is wetlook – it’s a fun of doing something that your mother told you to never do, i.e. get your fancy clothes wet.  Their models can walk into a fountain or jump into a river during their photoshoots.  Having said that, they absolutely love pantyhose and stockings, so majority of their shoots don’t go without some kind of hosiery involved.

There is currently a special on subscription to WamInStyle.  Their pantyhose models are just divine, up for any kind of play!

Also, to my knowledge, they accept requests from their members and even non-members who are interested in a specific photoshoot.

*Dear friends, please remember what makes this blog possible – your purchases at the shop section.  Would there be a sleek pair of stockings or pantyhose there that you’d like for yourself?  Please visit our online hosiery shop.*

Anne Vyalitsyna, Russian Top Model, wearing pantyhose and stockings

pantyhose

Anne Vyalitsyna is a 26 year old Russian model, also known as Anne V.  She started modeling at a very young age and became a sensation.  This particular photoshoot is for Macy’s.

Written by Julia, Ukraine

Anne Vyalitsyna is a freckled Russian supermodel who became a professional of the highest class in her field. Today thousands of Russian girls would dream to be like her.

Anne Vyalitsyna, also known as Anne V, was born in the city of Gorky, now Nizhny Novgorod, on March 19, 1986.  Currently she is 26 years old.

Anne began her career in modeling at the age of 15 – she was noticed by the IMG agents in the search of new faces for MTV’s Fashionably Loud Europe.  Anne was cast and started a contract with IMG Paris, and later with IMG New York.

Anne Vyalitsyna modeled for Christian Lacroix, Carolina Herrera, Dolce & Gabbana, Emanuel Ungaro, Fendi, Givenchy, Gucci, Helmut Lang, Hussein Chalayan, Issey Miyake, Julien McDonald, Oscar de la Renta, Prada, Ralph Lauren, Roberto Cavalli, Sonia Rykiel and Versace, Alberta Ferretti, Alexander McQueen, Anne Sui, Calvin Klein, Marc Jacobs, Max Mara, Moschino, Narciso Rodriguez and Louis Vuitton.

 

white stockings, sheer, lingerie

Anne Vyalitsyna was captured on the covers of the famous glossy magazines: Vogue, ELLE, Glamour.  She is nicknamed GlossAnna in the so-called group of three V’s.

 

The group of three V’s is from the initial letters of the names of the most successful and popular Russian top models in the early 2000s: Natalia Vodianova, Anne Vyalitsyna and Eugenia Volodina.  Vodianova – Volodin- Vyalitsyna achieved a level of professional recognition up to a point of disbelief.

These three women were referred to as “second wave” of Russian models.  First wave were models from big cities like Moscow and St. Petersburg.  These three, however, were from small cities in the suburbs.

Their success was achieved without any discounts on the country of origin, place of birth or a difficult childhood.  It became clear that the interest in these models is not a result of the exotic craze for women of Russian nationality.

It is difficult to find a more desirable and sexy woman in the world.  In an interview with Australian newspaper “The Age”, Anne Vyalitsyna said: “I wanted to be a model since childhood, since I was playing with my Barbie dolls.”

However, there is a contradiction.  No one realizes how far this dolled up image is from Anne’s favorite style.  This 26-year-old model prefers jeans, men’s shirts and sweaters. Would have her will, she would generally dressed as a tomboy.

 

Through her love for the cinema, she met the actor Leonardo Di Caprio.  They spent a few hot days in Ibiza in August 2009.  But despite of the stories, these rumors of romance between them are not confirmed.

However, Anne had a romantic relationship with the group’s lead singer Adam Levine of Maroon 5, but in April 2012, after a two-year relationship, the couple broke up.

Also, according to U.S. tabloid, this top model was fascinated by the famous actor, star of the TV series “True Blood”, Alexander Skarsgard.

There are reports that the Russian model Anne Vyalitsyna, Victoria’s Secret Angel, will play a role in the sequel to “Die Hard”.

The fifth part of the “Die Hard”, tentatively called “A Good Day to Die Hard” is due to come out in theatres in February 2013.

 

Anne Vyalitsyna was one of the determined beauties who raised the rating of Russian models to an incredible height.  Her, agent Duncan Ord, once said, “Russian have this work ethic, which is not found in any other nationality”.

Red stockings with reinforced toes and heels, garter belt, suspender belt, and panties. Implied nude. Backseam hosiery.

She is glamorous in her photos, but in her spare time she prefers to be a total tomboy. Is that a contradiction?

Anne is exceptionally slim! Height 178 cm Bust 86 cm Waist 62 cm Hips 89 cm

Red stockings with reinforced toes and heels, garter belt, suspender belt, and panties.

Anne got her excellent reputation not only through her looks, but also through her work ethic and discipline.

Is there such thing as too bright or too patterned when it comes to pantyhose?

Is there such thing as too bright or too much when it comes to hosiery?  Below are some designs by Zohara tights, Israeli brand (even though most likely not made there).

I personally find this a bit of an overkill.  The fact that the model looks pissed off also puts me off.  What do you think?

Hanukkah Pantyhose Party

I went to see my accountant on the first day of Hanukkah and to my surprise she was also wearing fancy pantyhose.  Don’t we look cute together?

Her family is Jewish, but they follow local traditions too – that explains the decorations under the tree.  The tree to them is just a cute thing, not related to any religion.

I pulled up my knee high skirt and posed with her for some photos.  She was surprised to see me so excited about what she was wearing.  Well, I guess it’s because I never see her in pantyhose!

I think that sparkly of patterned hosiery is a great way to add some spirit to a holiday outfit.

Romanian Supermodel Madalina Ghenea, girlfriend of Gerard Butler

Article by Camelia, our Romanian Connection

Born in Slatina, Romania, Madalina Ghenea has started her fashion career at the age of 15, in Italy. The young woman has crossed the frontiers of fashion and tried her luck, successfully, in television and movies and that brought her to the attention of the public.

After being tagged in adventures with stars like Leonardo DiCaprio and Eros Ramazzotti, the top model is now in a serious relationship with Gerard Butler, the actor from 300 Heroes of Thermopile”. Madalina Ghenea has become, during the last years, one of the most famous Romanian models, with a great career in Italy, but has just recently found a sentimental fulfilment.

The beautiful Romanian has immediately caught the eye of some top stars like the already mentioned Leonardo Dicaprio (the paparazzi took photos of the two of them together), Eros Ramazzotti and the Oscar winning actor Adrien Brody.  The press speculated greatly on these adventures, but Madalina Ghenea has always avoided speaking of these things.

And now, what seemed like a new conquestthe Scottish actor Gerard Butler has proven to be much more, especially that the star has officially confirmed their relationship. Invited on Jay Leno’s, “The Tonight Show”, Butler publicly admitted that his new girlfriend is a 24 years old aged Romanian woman. We have been together for seven months, it’s not a record”, the 43 years old actor joked.

He is known for the movies RocknRolla” and P.S. I Love You”, but in the same time for the part of king Leonidas, the hero of Termopile, in the movie 300.

Butler confessed that when he met Ghenea he was so impressed of her beauty that he fell in love at first sight. The couple met early this year, while shooting an advertisement. This fall, they were photographed in loving gestures on the Coast of France.

 

Translation to French:

Né à?Slatina, Roumanie, MГ„Ж’dГ„Ж’lina Ghenea a commencé sa carrière de mode à?l’âge de 15 ans, en Italie. La jeune femme a franchi les frontières de la mode et a tenté sa chance, avec succès, en télévision et les films, et cela l’a portée à?l’attention du public.

 

Après avoir été marquée dans des aventures avec des stars comme Leonardo DiCaprio et Eros Ramazzotti, le modèle haut de gamme est maintenant dans une relation sérieuse avec Gerard Butler, l’acteur de «300 – Héros de la thermopile”. MГ„Ж’dГ„Ж’lina Ghenea est devenue, au cours des dernières années, l’un des modèles les plus célèbres de Roumanie, avec une belle carrière en Italie, mais a récemment achevé une vie sentimentale réussie.

 

La belle roumaine a immédiatement attiré l’attention de quelques stars, comme le déjà?mentionné Dicaprio Leonardo (les paparazzi ont pris des photos de tous les deux ensemble), Eros Ramazzotti et l’acteur qui a gagné l’Oscar, Adrien Brody. La presse a beaucoup spéculé sur ces aventures, mais MГ„Ж’dГ„Ж’lina Ghenea a toujours évité de parler de ces choses.

Et maintenant, ce qui semblait être une nouvelle conquête – l’acteur écossais Gerard Butler – s’est avéré être beaucoup plus, surtout que le star a confirmé officiellement leur relation. Invité à?Jay Leno, “The Tonight Show”, Butler a publiquement admis que sa nouvelle petite amie est une femme roumaine de 24 ans. “Nous avons été ensemble pendant sept mois, ce n’est pas un record», les dit l’acteur de 43 ans en riant.

Il est connu pour les films mais dans le même temps pour la partie du roi Leonidas, le héros de Termopile, dans le film „300”.

 

Butler a avoué que lorsqu’il a rencontré Ghenea il a été tellement impressionné de sa beauté qu’il est tombé amoureux au premier regard. Le couple s’est rencontré au début de cette année, lors du tournage d’une publicité. Cet automne, ils ont été photographiés faisant des gestes d’amour sur la cГѓВґte de la France.

Art by Ekaterina Yastrebova – Woman and Pantyhose

I would like to introduce you to 2 of my favourite works by Ekaterina Yastrebova, a very unique and modern Russian artist.  I got to ask her some questions about these drawings.  You can visit her official site here.

http://eng.yastrebova.com/

http://yastrebova.com/

What inspired these paintings?

– Every day life.  Those were real life situations that created this artistic image.

I would like to know why the woman in the painting is putting on pantyhose and not stockings, since from my experience most artists prefer stockings. 

– Stockings are indeed more popular among artist (especially males), but I relate more to pantyhose.  What I wear is what I draw.

Trying on Wolford Satin Touch 20 – Wearing Pantyhose With Panty in the Desert

I had a pair of Wolford Satin Touch 20 that was sent to me by my fan David from Canada.  I didn’t want to just go ahead and wear it to one of my daily errands, I wanted to make a real statement by putting it on.

On my road trip in United States, after seeing thousands of women with bare legs and flip flops, I thought it would be a real statement to put on pantyhose in the middle of a desert.

There was a small problem – this is a very conservative State!  For example, in Walmart book section they had absolutely nothing on business, but there was a whole shelf on religion.  Obviously, I didn’t want anybody to see me walking around in just panties and pantyhose.

I also didn’t want to damage this pantyhose, but the desert ground is quite rough.  For this purpose I wore my flats and just alternating standing on one leg while putting pantyhose in the air on another.

This pantyhose is quite shiny, almost like a sheer version of Neon 40.  They soft, resistant, and stretchy – just the way a good quality pair of pantyhose should be. 

On another note, I’ve been told at Toronto Wolford boutique that even the princess Kate Middleton wears this exact style from Wolford.  Thank you, David, for sending that, it makes me feel like a princess too!
