LINDSAY LOHAN MAY SINK FASHION HOUSE


Lindsay Lohan is in negotiations to become a consultant for French fashion house Emanuel Ungaro - but the move to employ the actress has reportedly angered the brand's top designer.

Lindsay is been tapped by executives at Ungaro to fill the role of "creative consultant", but head designer, Esteban Cortazar, is reportedly furious about having the former actress attached to the luxurious brand.

"Esteban is threatening to leave the company if they bring Lindsay on as a consultant. It has been a revolving door of designers there and if he leaves, his team will go with him," a source told Page Six. "Ungaro thinks Lindsay is going to bring the company new energy and new buzz, but she is going to be the nail in the coffin. Nobody will take them seriously ever again."
Lindsay killed her career and is out cause an entire fashion empire to implode.

MODEL SPOTLIGHT: WENDELL LISSIMORE

Photo: Tarrice Love


MEET WENDELL LISSIMORE. With three covers out on stands on now, it is no question as to why he is our latest man du jour. The Utah native started modeling in 2006, appearing in Italian Vanity Fair and doing some catalogue work here and there. But it wasn't until 2008 that he started blowing up. He did Hermes, Emanuel Ungaro, Mugler and Kris Van Assche, while working it out on the print side, booking a V editorial with the one and only, Linda Evangelista. This month, you can see him on the covers of Italian D, with his son Phoenix, Bleu, and Japan's LUSSW, each showing a different side of this hunk of man. An absolute chameleon, we love how his look goes from Urban Chic to simply, Sophisticated.





Wendell is represented by Red Models in New York City, Ford Homme in Paris, Bookings in London and Group in Barcelona.
