Never one to play if safe, fashion phenom Anna Dello Russo styled Italian model Bianca Balti as a Spanish bullfighter in March's Vogue Nippon editorial called "Kiss of the Matador." The Giampaolo Sgura-shot images features Balti in looks inspired by the now-banned sport, designed by Versace, Giuseppe Zanotti, Moschino, Emilio Pucci, Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, and Salvatore Ferragamo.

McGinley

There are so many good fashion films popping up as of late that we can hardly contain ourselves. For Edun's spring 2012 campaign, acclaimed artist Ryan McGinley filmed a group of models, including Bradley Soileau and Charlotte Free, casually interacting with a bunch of friendly butterflies. But because it's under the direction of the imaginative and somewhat controversial McGinley, butterflies aren't just hanging around said pretty people—they're in their mouths, in their pants, and generally up in their business. And it works.

AltVogue

Just when you thought Emmanuelle Alt couldn't possibly get any cooler, she goes ahead and does something spectacular like this. To promote the relaunch of Vogue.fr, the fashion rag released an awesomely '80s-inspired music video that features the French Vogue editor-in-chief, fashion vet Mademoiselle Agnès, and models Anja Rubik, Karmen Pedaru, Jasmine Tookes and Kendra Spears performing “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" by Wham! Naturally, Alt channels George Michael in the clip, and does a superior job doing so.

Stella2012

Today, eco-friendly designer Stella McCartney released a new video with PETA wherein she discusses the harsh reality that, although leather is a style staple for many, there are a series of unethical practices involved in obtaining animal skin. The three-minute video features the designer directly addressing the audience, accompanied by scary clips of factory workers skinning animals. In a word, ew.

Beckham

While Madonna's Givenchy-happy halftime show was certainly a highlight of yesterday's Super Bowl, we were also pretty hyped to see H&M's $3.5 MM commercial for their Bodywear collection with David Beckham. As we hoped, the ad features Beckham's body in all of its athletic glory, which was a nice reprieve from the actual game and a heck of a lot more interesting than most of the Super Bowl aired that day. See the 30-second (NSFW, unless you make this window really tiny) ad after the jump.

Jason Wu for Target

The Super Bowl isn’t the only big thing happening today.  Target released their latest high-end-goes-affordable collection, Jason Wu. The 60-item line, full of sheer tops and pleated skirts, is causing the expected amount of chaos.  Garments have already hit eBay with heavily jacked up prices.  So act fast and act smart.

Tavi Gevinson

The ever-productive 15-year-old fashion phenom Tavi Gevinson, who also helms online must-read for teens, Rookie, is forging ahead in her quest for creative dominance and continuing to make adults feel like crap about their lack of accomplishments by adding even more to her already stellar resume: voice-over actress, singer, and one of the rare people Neil Young has given permission to sing “Heart of Gold."

VBruno

If Vanessa Bruno's nordic-inspired fall 2011 campaign video left you scratching your head, then be prepared for this one. Kate Bosworth returns for the French designer's spring 2012 imaginative ad to portray "a radiant girl who clutches onto the moon and arrives in an unknown land, on unmarred ground, as immaculate as her white ensemble," as the description notes. The actress is featured scaling walls, riding with horses, reminiscing on the past, and, of course, wearing covetable Vanessa Bruno.

StuartWeitz

To celebrate the 10-year anniversary of Stuart Weitzman’s iconic "Million Dollar Shoe" first worn by actress Laura Harring at the 2002 Academy Awards, the footwear designer revamped the sandal to look like a million bucks, but costs a fraction of the price. The Steven Meisel-shot ad for the shoe, which rolls out just in time for the Oscars, features model Natalie Vodianova.
