Chic alert! Rooney Mara will be featured in the new ad campaign for Calvin Klein’s latest women’s fragrance, DOWNTOWN Calvin Klein, which will debut in July. Director David Fincher created the black and white TV campaign with consulting creative director Fabien Baron overseeing the print campaign shot by Jean-Baptiste Mondino.

Liv Tyler is out. Amanda Seyfried is in. The Les Mis star has signed on to be the new face of the Givenchy fragrance, Very Irresistible, replacing longtime spokesperson Tyler. WWD reports that the campaign will be for print and TV and come to our eyes and nose in October. We really thought Amanda Bynes had this one in the bag.

Taking a little inspiration from their very own best dressed list, Vanity Fair has compiled a list of the top 10 best-dressed characters on TV. Who made the cut?

Former mod Brooklyn Decker has landed another TV gig, this time on the CBS comedy pilot, Friends With Better Lives, starring and directed by Dawson Leery, aka James Van Der Beek.

The fragrance ad was shot by Dan Jackson and will start running in print and online in April 2013.

She’s covered every A-list glossy on the planet, fronted all the top brands, and logged more runway miles than a 747. Now Naomi Campbell is ready to give back to fashion as a mentor on The Face. Watch and learn, ladies! BY EDDIE ROCHE

Some of the “looks” on the SAG Awards red carpet are going to give Joan Rivers a lot talk about this week, but let’s focus on the positive. Naomi Watts got it right in a pewter Marchesa lace gown and Faberge jewels. Gorgeous! (We wouldn’t have minded a little something on the neck, BTW!) The Oscar nominee presented Julianne Moore with the award for best actress in a TV movie or miniseries for Game Change.

This season Kilian Kerner celebrates his 10th year showing at Berlin Fashion Week so we thought we’d check in with the recovering “It” boy to find out how he’s maintained his lasting appeal. Because he enjoys acting—like our sainted muse, Colette—we then followed up with the truly important questions.
