Balenciaga Spring 2014

So Daria walked in Balenciaga and I'm just like ... no but seriously how awesome is this! Daria made a surprise appearance at Paris fashion week and closed the Balenciaga show.

Daria rarely does runway appearances these days so it's such a nice surprise to see her on the runway! Even if the show in question was designed by Wang (RIP fashion). I wonder if this means a campaign in the future? Daria has never worked with Balenciaga on the ad front so it'd be great to see what direction they would take. What I do know is that a runway appearance makes for a bunch of new pictures. I'm loving Daria's shorter and blonder hair in the candids below. I'll be updating this post with any new pictures that come along!

On the news front Daria is in Ibiza shooting an editorial with Alex White and Charlotte Tilbury. My best guess is for W Magazine. You can also see Daria's most recent editorial in Vogue Russia on the Editorials page. Also check out this super cute post by a reader - she took Daria's Vogue UK cover on an art gallery road trip!

This Is Definitely Not A Party In The Front

So Daria is on the cover of Vogue Russia October 2013 ...

And I'm just sitting here like ...

How could someone let this happen to you?! Girl, no. Let's just move on from this and pretend like it never happened. And can Conde Nast collectively agree on retiring the mullet for their covers? I think two appearances in one month is more than enough.

Twice Is Nice ... Harper's Bazaar Germany & Fashion Magazine

I'm sure most Daria fans know by now that in terms of work when it rains, it really pours. That's why I've got two editorials to share with you in this post, spanning across both sides of the Atlantic. The first is a beauty editorial from newly launched Harper's Bazaar Germany and the second a return to Canadian Fashion.

Harper's Bazaar Germany September 2013

The Harper's Bazaar editorial is a beauty shoot, which makes sense on a business basis. Daria is the face of Lancôme and these kind of features are in order. Personally I've never been a fan of them save for the odd shoot. I would have loved to see the direction HB Germany would have taken with an editorial shoot. There are some beautiful images here but I feel like I've seen it before.

This Fashion editorial is much more my taste. Its also a refreshing contrast to the more low maintenance approach Daria has taken in her editorials. Her Vogue UK feature confirmed that Daria is now her own manager than ever but its nice to see her change gears and dress up in a biker/post-punk/grunge mashup ... is that what you would call it? Either way how amazing is that first picture? Daria makes a good Charlotte Rampling?
