Moss Headlines Burberry
Spring Campaign
Less than two years after Burberry dropped her over a cocaine scandal, model Kate Moss is headlining the fashion company's spring campaign.
Moss will be joined by several members of London's high society for the campaign, aimed at promoting Burberry's spring collection.
Fashion photographer Mario Testino said the campaign will not only feature the 32-year-old supermodel, but also the children of celebrities such as rockers Keith Richards, Bryan Ferry and Jesse Wood.
"We agreed the look we wanted to achieve was a mix of Beaton imagery and the '60s feeling in London, reinterpreted with the people and the vigor of today. It's the new swinging London," Testino said.
Burberry designer Christopher Bailey has long been a public champion for the troubled model. After the spring campaign is released, Moss and Burberry will have worked together about 10 times.

The "No Pants" Subway Ride
They came. They saw. They took off their pants.
More than 200 people participated in the sixth annual No Pants! Subway  Ride.
"We're all going to take our pants off and have a lot of fun," said organizer Charlie Todd, 28, of the comedy
group, Improv Everywhere. "It's not against the law to wear your underwear!"
Participants gathered at the Brooklyn Bridge-City Hall station, boarded a 6 train,
took off their pants and exited at different stations. Then they
re-boarded other uptown trains to the shock and amusement of fellow subway riders.
When asked, participants are not supposed to reveal the purpose. Instead, they are asked to respond with something such as: "I forgot my pants today."
Not that everyone gets the joke. During last year's No Pants ride, a police officer stopped a train at 59th Street, ordered all the passengers off, and handcuffed eight of the pranksters on the platform.
A judge later threw out the disorderly conduct charges, noting that it was not illegal to wear underwear in public.
Todd, says the event starts slowly, with one person boarding the train in boxers and briefs.
"It's subtle at first, and it's hard for people to explain what could possibly be happening," he said. "By the end of the ride, when there's 20, 30, 40 people in their underwear, it becomes something that's obviously meant to be funny.

Spears & Hilton Top
Worst-Dressed List
Britney Spears and Paris Hilton shared the No. 1 position on Mr. Blackwell's 47th annual worst dressed list.
The celebrities, who forged a friendship at Hollywood and Las Vegas nightclubs last year, were also described by Blackwell as “style-free and fashion deprived.” The wife of Britain’s Prince Charles, teen star Lindsay Lohan and singer Christina Aguilera were also subjected to his sartorial
skewering.
Spears, whose fashion choices made headlines when photographs of her  stepping out of cars showed she wasn’t wearing panties, has been a favorite target of Blackwell for the past six years.
The self-appointed style guru made no direct reference to the singer’s underwear choices, but described Spears and Hilton as “two peas in an overexposed pod.”
In Blackwell’s 47th annual report, Camilla Parker-Bowles, wife of Britain’s future king, Prince Charles, placed an ignominious second as the “duchess of dowdy” and a “royal wreck” because of her penchant for feathered hats.
Blackwell put actress Lindsay Lohan in third place, calling her “tragically trapped in fashion’s fast lane.”
Singers Christina Aguilera (“all crass, no class”) and Mariah Carey (“queen of catastrophic kitsch”) came in fourth and fifth.
Paula Abdul, and actresses Sharon Stone, Tori Spelling and Sandra Oh, were also deemed fashion fiascoes, while Blackwell said Meryl Streep’s wardrobe made him want to weep.
Blackwell’s list has become a Hollywood tradition over the decades, poking fun at icons ranging from Queen Elizabeth to Elizabeth Taylor. Blackwell was one of the top Los Angeles designers of the 1960s, creating fashions for the likes of Jayne Mansfield, Peggy Lee and Nancy Reagan.
He urged the women on his 2006 list to emulate “fabulous fashion independents” like Kate Winslet, Angelina Jolie, Helen Mirren, Barbra Streisand and Beyonce Knowles.
Top 10 "winners" on Mr. Blackwell's 47th annual worst-Dressed celebs list.
1. Britney Spears/Paris Hilton
2. Camilla Parker-Bowles
3. Lindsay Lohan
4. Christina Aguilera
5. Mariah Carey
6. Paula Abdul
7. Sharon Stone
8. Tori Spelling
9. Sandra Oh
10. Meryl Streep
