Fashion photographer, Terry O’Neill CBE, has passed away at 81. He is considered as one of the trailblazers for celebrity portraiture and has worked with David Bowie, the Beatles, and Twiggy amongst many others. Throughout the 1960s, he captured life in London and became a photographer for the stars. “Terry was a class act, quick-witted and filled with charm,” said Iconic Images in a statement. “Anyone who was lucky enough to know or work with him can attest to his generosity and modesty.”

Jennifer Lopez is the New Face of Coach
Jennifer Lopez is the new face of Coach. She takes the role while Selena Gomez steps down from the ambassador position. “I’m so excited for this collaboration with Coach,” JLo said. “It is a timeless brand that I’ve always been a fan of and the upcoming collection really speaks to my personal style—an uptown/downtown mix.”
“She’s determined, and she’s an original who has followed her own path to do things her own way—she really embodies the attitude of Coach and our new campaign,” said Stuart Vevers, Coach’s Brand Director. Jennifer Lopez joins Michael B Jordan who has held the role since 2018.

Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show is Cancelled
The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show will not be happening this year. Its parent company, L Brands, said it would have to ‘evolve the messaging of [the company]’ before returning. Over the past few years, controversy has plagued the label due to lack of diversity and relations to Jeffrey Epstein.
“Unfortunately the Victoria’s Secret show won’t be happening this year,” said VS Angel, Shanina Shaik, in June. “It’s something I’m not used to because every year around this time I’m training like an Angel.” Suspicions were confirmed earlier this week with the confirmation from the parent company. “We think it’s important to evolve the marketing of Victoria’s Secret,” explained Stuart B. Burgdoerfer, the CFO and Executive Vice President of L Brands.
