WWD reports that Kimora Lee Simmons will design an exclusive juniors line for retailer JC Penny. The sportswear line will be called….wait for it…Fabulosity. I can’t hate on Kimora getting her hustle on in preparation for her divorce from mogul hubby Russell Simmons, but I just hope she takes it easy on the blinged and bedazzled jeans.

Paz Vega and Tracee Ellis Ross both mined their closets for Prada to wear to the premiere of Trembled Blossoms, the design house’s first animated short film.
Paz Vega gave us glossy Hollywood glamour in an emerald green Prada sheath dress and slingback sandals while Tracee Ellis Ross stuck to her quirky chic style with full plaid skirt and a pair of Prada pumps with spats.

Oscar-nominated actor Djimon Hounsou is bigger than ever — especially in Hong Kong. Calvin Klein has erected this arresting advert on the front of the Ritz-Carlton hotel, taking up 100,000 square feet of space on all four sides. The 27-story tall billboard can be seen all the way across the harbor to the Kowloon side and features Hounsou in nothing but his Calvin Klein skivvies. Shot by Peter Lindbergh, the billboard is the largest in Asia in Calvin Klein history.

Jessica Stam bestows some model mojo and teaches a DKNY intern how to walk like a supah model. Her advice: shoulders down, head up and long strides.I think that’s what I do every day, but somehow I don’t get paid for it.
The video also has a little clip of Jourdan Dunn walking in the Oscar de la Renta show.
