Daria and the Detectives

Update Yep, it is Eniko, Daria's doppelganger, in the Spring 2010 issue of V Magazine (#64). Thanks Megan!

I've been reading up a bit on Inez and Vinoodh's exhibit in Sao Paolo (by the way did anyone go!) and I came across a video and interview from the photographer duo. This is from their exhibit last year in Amsterdam at FOAM museum. The whole premise and layout of the exhibit seems identical to the one they just had in Sao Paulo, but that wasn't what caught my eye.  I think I found another portrait of Daria? If you look below at the two screencaps the photo of the girl with the big hair and whiskers looks a lot like Daria. Now I may be wrong, I think it is quite possible model Eniko Mihalik, but what do you guys think?



Either way the video below is really interesting to watch and Inez and Vinoodh give a detailed interview on their exhibit and their feeling towards photography in the world of fashion. The image of Daria appears at around 3:22 s.

Daria as Inez

A new photo is a rare sight these days. It looks like Daria's been laying low for the past month in terms of magazine apperances, and now that she's off sailing the world for the next two months I don't think we'll see much in the future! Thats why it was a treat to find this photo of Daria dressed like Inez van Lamsweerde in a photographer-muse switch.

Daria Werbowy as Inez in the "Pretty Much Everything" Exhibit
This photo was taken by Inez and Vinoodh in 2010 and will be displayed at an exhibition in Sao Paulo, Brazil ... well right about now actually! If there are any Brazilian readers out there then you should go to the exhibition - it starts in half an hour - and then you can let us know if there are any other unseen Daria pictures!

Elle Poland July 2011

Elle sure does love their reprints but its good for fans because now we have another cover for Daria this year! Elle Poland reprinted Elle Spains May 2011 cover. I have to say I like the Polish edition more for its brighter colours.


Now I don't normally do posts on reprints but seeing as how the news is sparse these days ... and also for any Polish readers out there (or for those able to get ahold of this magazine!) could you let us know if there is an interview inside or perhaps new unpublished pictures? It would be much appreciated!

Good Friends, Good Hair

I did a bit of random browsing last night and stumbled on hairstylist Harry Josh's website. If you remember Daria has attended his Spring Fling parties a few times and they seem to be good friends - good enough to warrant a spot on Josh's candid page! I've found a great unseen candid from back in 2007.


This candid was probably taken at one of Harry Josh's parties and Daria is pictured with Julia Stegner. 2007 was my favourite 'Daria year' and I love this candid. How is it possible that Julia and Daria still look good making the dumbest faces? Ah, the perks of being a model. Enjoy!

Lancome Hypnose Doll Eyes

Daria can add another Lancome campaign to her 2011 year. She one of the three faces, along with Arlenis Sosa and Eletrra Wiedemann, for a new version of Lancomes Hypnose mascara - Doll Eyes. If vapid and beautiful, albeit slightly creepy, dolls was the look Lancome was going for then they really nailed it. Thanks to francy_italy at tFS for the heads up!


I used to really dislike Lancome ads in the past for their overly eager photoshop but I've grown to really like and look forward to their campaigns. Its not every model that has a beauty contract for over five years and Daria has done a great job as a spokesperson. I'm not biased (no really!) but Daria stands out in this campaign.


Behind the Scenes of Lancome Hypnose Doll Eyes

Its also great that this came out today because I was just about to post on some site news! I completely revamped the Lancome page and Daria's entire work with Lancome is now added and archived to the site! Just browse through the years for behind the scenes pictures, commericals and campaigns. I'm really glad that a big portion of the site is now finished, but if you find any trouble or have a picture that is not up there then please let me know :)

An Outtake Special

We all remember Daria's recent spread in the Times Style magazine (and if you don't then I've added scans to the editorial section!) and whats even greater is that we get a new crop of photos we've never seen before! I've found a couple of shots that weren't published as well as a new photo in the contents section of the magazine. I love the photo of Daria peeking out from the sand and sitting in the white chair and smoking and ... I love this entire spread to be honest! Cass Bird always does a great job with Daria.


I've also found a great photo from Daria's spread in the April 15th issue of Madame Figaro. It was released a while ago so I can't believe it slipped under my radar. But I love this photo and all the details you can gather from it, from the fact that Daria shaved her hair just at the nape of the neck (a solution to taming hair while saililng?) to her unique piercings and jewellery and that tattoo on the back of her neck which she has never explained.
