Eartha Kitt speculation

[caroni99]

Eartha Kitt?!?!?

Has not been confirmed but was posted on The Fashion Spot under the Fall/Winter 07.08 Ad Campaigns thread.

Would be a really awesome collection if it's true.

List can be viewed here: http://www.thefashionspot.com/forums...ing-55203.html

Now I am really excited....I can only imagine what the collection colors will look like? (Something to flatter dark skin??!!).

Now, I am already HYPED UP!!!

Go MAC!

Eartha would be fierce . . . mmmm . . . am I the only one who thinks it's time for a drag queen to get their own collection? I'd love to see an Ru Paul (first face of Viva Glam, woo!) or Kevin Aviance icon collection. Of course, they're not nearly as old as these ladies . . . hrm . . .

Re: Next MAC Icon...

So here is what Hint Mag had to say about it:

Lais Oliveira

Counting fellow Brazilian babes Daiane Conterato, Carolina Pantoliano and Carol Sippel as roommates, Lais Oliveira could land jobs by osmosis alone. Yet the olive-skinned stunner has kept busy with DKNY and H&M campaigns, as well as editorials in Oyster, Italian Vogue, 10 and German Glamour. Her runway resume, meanwhile, namechecks Chanel, Stella McCartney, Vivienne Westwood and Diane von Furstenberg. Did we mention she's currently shooting the MAC campaign with Eartha Kitt? Meow.



So it looks like Eartha Kitt is doing something with this model. Could it still be an Icon collection??? Hmmm not so sure anymore....

Thanks so much! Oh well I guess someone needs to change the title of this thread.

I was so excited--not a fan of hers but it would have been nice to speculate on the collection that could have been and she seemed such a likely pick.

Bummer....I still hope she'll one day be an icon....She's 80 years old -- I wonder how much air-brushing they'll do of her....'Cause they sure air-brushed the hell out of Raquel!

Sooo true! Maybe with Eartha Kitt they can show how to truly live up to the "All Ages" aspect of their motto. =P It'd be amazing to have her as an icon - I'm drooling just thinking about the possibility!

Ok, I love her but when I saw this I busted out laughing. She seems like she had so much fun playing that part.

Yup, it would make sense since she was featured in our update video.
