"Is it the bag who knew too much? Marion Cottilard has reunited with her “La Vie en Rose” director Olivier Dahan for a Hitchcock-inspired short film, in which the star of the show is that lambskin ingénue known as the Lady Dior handbag.

“Lady Noire,” the first of four installments to be released over the next two years to coincide with Dior collections, features a villainous millionaire, our heroine teetering on a cross-beam of the Eiffel tower, and well-dressed thugs in Dior Homme. Who will save her?

Don’t expect to find out this season, since the story is somewhat opaque, although clues are provided — where else? — on the handbag’s Twitter page. Lovers of fashionable suspense will thrill to the scene where Cotillard slowly unpacks from her bag a glittering array of accessories, each with signature cannage cross-hatching, including an especially fancy Dior Mobile phone that resembles an Art Deco cigarette case. (Naomi Campbell would kill for — and with — one.)

Cotillard will play a different character in a different city with each episode, the second of which is titled “Lady Rouge.” Details of the story are as secret as next year’s silhouette, but we’re hoping for plot-twists worthy of any big screen franchise. Maybe John Galliano will take off his bandanna and reveal that he’s Marion’s father?" {NYC Times}

Au Naturel

Magazine editors seem to have noticed (at last!) that women need to see models and actresses in a truer form, without the work of makeup artists and retouchers to mask their pores, cellulite, and wrinkles. The upcoming issue of French Elle, which hits newsstands this weekend, features Eva Herzigova, Monica Bellucci, Sophie Marceau, Charlotte Rampling, and four other females sans fards, which is a French idiom that literally means “without rouge/makeup,” but implies “openness.”

We’re totally psyched to see beautiful women in a more natural, albeit still extremely flattering light. Photographer Peter Lindbergh snapped the women, so they’re not anything like the horribly unattractive candids our friends take of us around 1 a.m. after we’ve ingested a few cocktails, but they’re the closest a fashion magazine is going to get.

Like Italian Vogue‘s black issue, this month’s French Elle is a step in the right direction for magazines, but once a year isn’t enough. Shouldn’t we be able to see celebs looking more like themselves every month? I don’t mean in unattractive photos like the ones tabloids shoot, showing stars’ boogers and dry skin. Natural can be beautiful and at home in a glossy magazine. In this month’s Glamour, there’s a swimsuit story that features a curvy model, and everyone at The Frisky gushed over the model’s hot bod. But the headline reads: “Not a dental-floss-thing kind of girl? Then you’ll love the new old-school Hollywood trend, meant to flatter goddesses of every shape and size.” Why can’t we just integrate natural, more realistic beauty on a regular basis, without calling out the content: This is for all of our non-skinny readers!!!
