Daria Werbowy Gallery

Surprise! Daria has made her first documented event appearance since last September. Last night she attended ACRIA's annual Unframed Benefit Auction, hosted by designer Olivier Theyskens. With artwork provided by world renowned photographers, including Bruce Weber, I'm not surprised that Daria would show up this event.

Even though I'm not surprised she would attend this event, I chose the words "show up" because it looks like thats exactly what she did. I mean, what exactly is she wearing? I'm a little shocked that she would deem that outfit acceptable for an art auction. Its almost like she is trying her darndest to look the opposite of a supermodel. We all know thats not how she views herself, but this look is just very unflattering (at least this image is unflattering and unfortunately we don't have any others at the moment). I would love it if she could embrace the supermodel role and look drop dead gorgeous because she truly is. Oh well. All in all, I do have to say it is nice to see her out!

Update: Per Cold at tFS "According to Leigh Lezark, Daria only stopped by the event. Some of the guests saw her in the vicinity on their way to the gallery and invited her to pop in. She didn't stay too long. It was a fairly casual event anyway."

Considering even the darialogist thought this look was too tomboyish tells us something (lol). Fashion aside, Daria is photographed above with Scott Lipps, CEO of model agency One Management. Hmm, wonder what they were talking about?

I am curious to hear what others think about this outing!

Unfortunately we received some bad news today. Daria is not on the cover of Vogue Espana June 2013 (Anja Rubik can be found there instead). Maybe Daria will be on the cover of the July issue? Or maybe we will just be blessed with an editorial in the June issue. Thankfully we should know in the next few days.

At least today we got a picture of Daria promoting the 25th Anniversary Vogue Espana T-Shirt that will be sold with the June issue. Designed by Marcela Mansergas, the winner of the first season of Who's On Next, Daria sure is rocking it!

A little less than a month ago I posted Lancome's Aquatic Summer advertisement starring none other than Daria. Yes, that over-photoshopped mess of an advertisement. Many of you have probably tried barring it from memory. Well, thank the stars we have a new image for this Summer makeup campaign, which I must say is so much better. Shot by Mario Testino, this image actually looks like Daria and it is very beautiful and very summery. Her gave is mesmerizing, isn't it? Make's me want to go out and buy that eye makeup (good job Lancome!).

A new video? I'll take it! Make that one stunning video.

Lancome, Never Underdressed, Victor Demarchelier, and of course Daria, have teamed up to make a video showcasing Lancome's newest "miracle" foundation, Teint Visionnaire. In describing this film, I think Never Underdressed said it best: "You'll see no mascara, no bronzer, not even a dab of concealer. No light trickery, just a flood of New York spring sunshine...It's just Daria, glowing with the sort of healthy, athletic-looking, radiant complexion."

Can this video be any better? I'm loving the fact that there is no talking, just Daria acting her cool self. Nothing to make it awkward. If I didn't know any better, I would have thought this was shot by Cass considering how comfortable Daria looks in front of the camera. But after over 10 years in front of the camera, no matter who the photographer is, Daria does not disappoint!

Watch the film and be mesmerized. And lets all thank Never Underdressed for asking to see this Lancome foundation in the flesh.

There’s so much more to her than just the perfect genetics...She’s a real collaborator. - Cass on Daria

Due to the fact that I had such little time to make my last post on Punk Stories, I didn't have time to do any "research." With the video and the two behind the scenes images I did get the chance to post yesterday, came more images from Vogue, plus an article that I greatly enjoyed reading. You can find the article here. Not only did it confirm why Daria and Cass work so good together, it also gives some interesting tidbits on the making of the Punk Stories video. That's always cool, right? Less guessing on our end! We already knew Daria was a cat lady (which is exactlyhow my friends describe me lol), but having Cass mention it in the article is pretty sweet and all the more reason why I find Daria great.

**P.S. Stay tuned for an exciting new post in the next day or so!

Is that another Daria and Cass collaboration I see? It sure is! This time around the duo teamed up to create a video for Vogue's "Punk Stories," in preparation for this year's Met Gala's Exhibition Punk: Chaos to Couture. 

How nice is it to see Daria in a different way every time we get something new from Cass? So nice! That is why they are so great together. I always get the sense that we are seeing Daria herself and not just Daria the model, you know? I can't even say we have ever seen her as punk before (correct me if I'm wrong), making this all the better. We know this is shot in New York City, but what makes this even more awesome is that it is shot where Daria is very familiar, a friend's home. Can you tell what my favorite parts of the video are? The shots of Daria's cats, of course! Plus her smirk in the blonde wig at the very end...classic!

We also get two behind the scenes images from this whole collaboration, shot by Daria's boyfriend Kenny Jossick. I'm not sure if we will get more, but considerig Daria featured 6 different looks in the video, I wouldn't be surprised. Bring them on! We also know where these and these images came from. It looks like they were scouting for their video locations.

Aquatic Summer is Lancome's newest make-up line and was released this week. Thankfully Daria is the model in the campaign, but unfortunately, the image is less to be desired.

Two things came to my mind when I first saw the image. First, wow, way too much photoshop. It doesn't even look like Daria has the make-up on her actual face; rather it looks like they digitally altered the image and added the make-up as an afterthought. Second, now we know where the two making-of images below are from. We first saw these in October of last year, hense why her hair is so short in this "new" ad.

After the winter the Midwest had this year, Summer is on everyone's mind here. For this to be a Summer advertisement, I'm not impressed at all. Daria doesn't even look happy. Hopefully we will get another image for the Aquatic Summer make-up collection. If not, I am a little disappointed in Lancome.

We've already seen previews of Daria's latest editorial in Stylist Magazine's April 10th issue, but thanks to the magazine archiving the magazine and Tinsley for bringing notice to the images, now we have the whole editorial! And lucky for us, there is another image! Look at it below...beyond beautiful.

I've always been a fan of her beauty editorials, and this is no exception. Especially since there is a theme behind every image. In this case, its not just about showing off Lancome products (even though we know Lancome (UK) had a hand in this shoot). Considering how rare her beauty editorials are lately, I sure am glad to see her in another one. Portraying four different Sixties looks, I'm loving how different she looks in each image. I'm also loving how the editors didn't edit out her finger tattoo. That always seems to bother me.

Looks like Daria has nabbed her second cover of 2013! Shot by Victor Demarchelier, she can be found on the April 10th issue of UK's The Stylist, a magazine I am rather unfamiliar with. The Stylist is a women's weekly magazine published in the UK, and is free! Any UK readers able to get this? Save one for me!

For this issue, they channeled a '60s vibe. It seems this magazine is rather fond of the TV show Mad Men, and considering the premiere of Season 6 just aired this week, what better timing? Its nice seeing Daria take this kind of role in something other than a Lancome advertisement. Remember the Hypnose Doll Eyes Mascara from 2011? Although this isn't an ad, it does seem like Lancome UK was involved with this project, according to Twitter. Unfortunately, The Stylist's website does not have the feature online. I am rather surprised by this. Maybe it will be up soon? For now, we have three image besides the cover. I don't know about you, but I'm loving them! I wonder if there's more? Bring them on!

Its pretty awesome that they grabbed Daria for this. She has never been on The Stylist, or in it for that matter. Its always nice seeing Daria in a new publication. Add one more to the ever expanding list!

Hair stylist Paul Hanlon posted an instagram with Daria yesterday, as well as a photo of London's Big Ben. Does that mean Daria was in London shooting yesterday? Hmmmm. After doing some research, Paul has a salon in London and often works with top photographers on magazines ans well as campaigns. So I think it is safe to say Daria is/was in London.

Is this a Daria revival? First in St. Barths, next in Venice, and now maybe in London shooting. I don't know about you, but I am getting very excited! 2013 is looking pretty darn good so far!

Paul had nothing but nice things to say about Daria. Posted with this gorgeous photo was, "Beyond Daria !! Such a beauty and such a nice person!! Pleasure to work with always !!" There is no surprise there!

Pretty shortly after I posted the Mert & Marcus instagram photos, we found out they were shooting Daria for Vogue US. Surprisingly Daria has not been in Vogue US since September of 2011 with an unpublished photo from the Bodies of Work editorial, also shot by Mert & Marcus! So this upcoming editorial is long overdue...

Not only do we get the instagram photos to let us know of an upcoming Vogue editorial, now we get behind the scenes images! We still don't know what issue this editorial will be in, but based on these photos, it doesn't look too summery. Looking at the pink coat Daria is wearing, this looks rather Fall-ish. Also, it looks like Mert & Marcus shot on a cloudy day, so we will have to see how they played with lighting. I just get a Fall vibe, what do you think?

Considering how beautiful Venice is, you can bet the scenery will be amazing in this editorial. I'm really excited that Daria is on a gondola (hopefully they arent just moving to their next shooting location, and are actually shooting on the gondola). That will sure be a beautiful image.

It sure does seem like Daria has been hanging out with quite a few photographers lately. Yippee for what is to come! First, we saw Patrick Demarchelier back in February (but have since found out that that is for an upcoming issue of Vogue Spain). Second, and quite often, Daria was with Cass Bird. And now? Daria was photographed with Mert Alas of photographer duo Mert & Marcus in the beautiful city of Venice. I would guess this is for an editorial, but only time will tell. Another campaign, maybe? Their work together thus far (both editorial and campaign) have been some of my favorites so this is exciting news, Daria fans!

All thanks to instagram, we are able to really follow Daria's work as its in progress (and of course follow her personal life, which to me is pretty neat). It sure makes blogging much easier considering we are given advanced notice that Daria will soon be in another editorial or campaign. More behind the scenes images is nothing to complain about either!

I said before that I was not going to post images from Daria's instagram, but I have decided if it is work related, then why not? If you follow her instagram, you will come to find out she is a very good photographer herself.

If you follow Daria's instagram, you would have seen a photo of Patrick Demarchelier posted at the end of February. As exciting as seeing a major fashion photographer through Daria's camera lense, its even more exciting to wonder where we will be seeing a new editorial. Thanks to a video that has surfaced this week, the guessing can now end.

Daria will be in an upcoming issue of Vogue Spain. I will assume she'll be on the cover as well, considering there was a video made documenting the shooting of the editorial. Shot in St. Barths, another beach themed editorial is in store. Even though we got a few of these last year, I am super excited; they always turn out great. Watching this video makes me happy. It reminds me it is Spring (which I would have never guessed since I got a foot of snow this past week). Needless to say, a beach editorial is very nice to see. And judging from this video, its going to be a stunner!

By the way, Daria hasn't been in or on the cover of Vogue Spain since September 2005! It is long overdue for her to be among their pages again!

Two days later we get two more images from Cass Bird's instagram. One was obviously taken the same day as the others, and the other, what looks to me taken during a shoot. So, now the question can be asked...will there be another Cass and Daria editorial? What a beautiful editorial it would be!

image source: Cass' instagram

What would we do without Cass Bird? Or for that matter, what would we do without Instagram these days?

Daria and Cass were at it again! Today, Cass took four instagram photos of Daria being her cool self. These are some of the best we have gotten I would have to say. Of course I would love the cat mask, but that one on the subway? Classic. They always look like they have so much fun together, its a no brainer they would be great friends, as well as be a great professional team. We know Daria and Cass tend to hang out quite a bit, not just professionally, so I am not going to assume this get together means we will get another editorial. Really, who needs an editorial when we get such fun images like these? They are like an inside look into Daria's life, always so nice to see. Am I right?

Does Daria have an editorial in Spanish Magazine Telva? Daria was recently illustrated by Marcela Gutierrez, who I have come to find out, tends to sketch fashion images. Titled "Telva Spring Summer 2013" and captioned with "Illustration inspired on Daria Werbowy," I am led to believe either this illustration can be found in Telva Magazine, or the actual image (with others?) are among its pages. I'm leaning towards this illustration being published, but either way, this is a beautiful image. Its nice to see Daria in a different way.

If anyone has more news, or access to this magazine, definitely let me know what you find out!

Remember these three beautiful shots? One of them has been turned into an ad! It seems like forever since we have seen any new Lancome ads, doesn't it? They are very few and far between these days. Considering the last Lancome ad we saw was the Hypnose Star campaign with Betty Boop all the way back in May 2012, any Lancome news is met with happiness. Daria truly is the Hypnosewoman. Lets hope all three images will be turned into ads. They sure would stand out in magazines! Those eyes!

Woohoo! The premiere issue of Vogue Ukraine does come with an editorial, a lovely studio shoot at that. Not only do we get to add a new publication to Daria's long list of work, we also get to add Steven Pan to the list of photographers she has worked with. I'm loving how simple the shots are. I'm also loving how fresh and spring-ythis editorial feels. That is such a good vibe considering my city just got hit with 8 inches of snow yesterday! I sure am ready for warmer weather! No overstyling, not too much makeup, and even better, not an overuse of photoshop. Just Daria, plain and simple. By the way, is anyone able to translate?

Its crazy how long her hair is getting, especially her "rat tail," as most are calling it. It seems they have made it very prominent in these shots. Seriously, it's in every single shot. Maybe since its so different, so unique. I like it. Samantha Hillerby has been credited for the hair in this shoot, which is kind of funny. What exactly did she do? Brush it out of her face and make sure it looked decent with the flowers? Make sure the rat tail was over her shoulder? All kidding aside, I'm loving this editorial. Especially the last two shots. What are your favorites?

**If anyone has this readily available to them, please let me know! I'm not sure how easy this is going to be for me to get. Anyone go to the presentation? I sure will take a copy! :)

When it rains, it sure does pour! Daria news and pictures just keeps coming in, and what do I say to that? Bring it on! With that being said, Maiyet has released their Spring 2013 campaign images, at least the first installment. I am at a loss of words, really. I just get so excited when we get such great images! I find it hard to put into words how great these images are. Cass and Daria definitely still have it. 

Maiyet always seem to choose the most beautiful locations, this time being India. We have known about this campaign and its location for quite some time now due to Cass' and Daria's instagram (it seemed Daria stayed in India for quite a while after the shooting was over). Those behind the scenes images alone made me very excited for this campaign. And like usual, I am not disappointed! 

Maiyet is continuing to come out with my favorite images, and for that matter, favorite campaigns. With this campaign being so beautiful (they always portray their location so well in the entire campaign), I can't decide which Maiyet campaign I like the most. They are all so good, there is no need to choose a favorite!

The rumours have been proven true. Daria is on the premiere cover of Vogue Ukraine March 2013! How exciting! What makes this more exciting is that the cover is very nice, very professional, and of course Daria is gorgeous. Like some have already said on tFS, this does have a 'Vogue Paris' vibe. It especially reminds me of her September 2012 editorial and cover in VP due to the hair and makeup. I'm loving the colors!

Vogue Ukraine has started off the right way, choosing a top Ukrainian model to front the cover. A big name like Daria will surely sell very well and get their name our faster than if they chose a less popular cover star. Lets hope she has an editorial/interview inside. I don't see why she wouldn't, but unfortunately some magazines do not put their cover star inside the actual magazine (a huge pet peeve of mine!). I doubt Vogue Ukraine would start off that way.

Of course, once an HQ photo hits the web, it will be posted here and once previews/scans of the editorial are published, they will be found here as well.

Its about time Daria did something for Lancome again! Sometimes one might forget that she's even a Lancome spokesmodel when we get such long breaks in between images/campaigns/videos. But when we get images this beautiful, its ok if we have to wait for them. I mean, look at this! Beautiful!

This time around, Daria is the face for the Hypnose Palettes, which is only fitting since she has been the face of all the Hypnose products thus far. I'm interested to see if these ads will be in magazines and if there will be a video. Now wouldn't that be awesome?

Surprisingly, Celine has come out with new images for their Spring/Summer 2013 campaign. Its always nice getting more images, but when some of the new images are even better than the original, well that makes it all the better! Also, with the majority being taken outside, they give the campaign more of the Spring/Summer vibe.

Daria is once again the face of Isabel Marant! This time around, Daria was shot by David Sims for the fashion house's Spring/Summer campaign, instead of the usual Inez and Vinoodh. We get a very summery feel, which is fitting of course. I will be honest, when the first image came out, I did not see this being Daria completely. Lets just say, the editor went a little too far with the photoshop. Now, when the high quality image was released, I was able to confirm this was Daria (and of course after looking at it more and more, it looked like Daria), but the fact I had doubts, isn't a good thing. To me, it looked more like Milla Jovavich morphed with Daria. Considering how closely I follow Daria's work, I can pick her out in any image easily. I do not believe many others had the same problem as me on this image, but alas, Daria now has three campaigns for this season so far!

I can't believe this is her fourth time as the face of Isabel Marant...and she has never even walked in Marant's shows. I also can't believe that its been two years since she was last in Maran't campaign. Crazy! The second image is my favorite. Very beautiful. I am not too fond of the third image with Daria looking to the side. It's a little weird...

image source: isabelmarant.tm.fr

It seems like the third's time the charm when it comes to Daria's new Celine campaign. Personally this Celine campaign is my favorite of them all so far. I am not the biggest minimalist fan, but the close ups in this...beautiful. I actually saw the fourth image for the first time in a magazine today. Its funny how in this day and age, everything is so focused on electronics and the internet, but when I see images for the first time in a magazine, I get super excited.

There really isn't much to this campaign. Daria's just kind of there, standing; very simple. Nonetheless, it is nice. As always, high quality images can be found under the campaign page.
