1. Coca-Cola goes couture
At this year’s Milan Fashion Week Coca-Cola announced a partnership with Moschino (Italian luxury fashion house) for its new limited edition collection.
Coca Cola drinks have traditionally identified well both with the common man and the la-di-da of the society. Now the brand has added a touch of couture appeal to its cans as well. Yes, Coca-Cola has gone all trendy yet again with their limited edition collection titled Coca-Cola light loves Moschino, which will be available at the latter’s select locations. The brands have been promoting the partnership on various social media platforms.
This is not the first time Coca-Cola has collaborated with a Fashion House. Back in 2009 in Italy, Coca-Cola Light had launched ‘Tribute to Fashion’ where they teamed up with famous designers like Donatella Versace, Alberto Ferreti, Consuelo Castiglioni, Etro, and Moschino to create iconic bottle designs to raise money for the surviving victims of the devastating earthquake in Abruzzo, Italy.
Available only until December 2014, the cans of Coca-Cola Light will have a glamorous look consisting of three original subjects, i.e. Cow Print, Eye Chart and Hearts depicting the heritage of the Italian masons. So go grab yours today before they disappear of the shelf.

2. Naomi & Jourdan for Burberry!
Super Model Naomi Campbell, 44, is returning to model for Burberry’s new Spring/Summer 2015 campaign along with her protégé, the gorgeous Jourdan Dunn, 24. The campaign is shot by Mario Testino. Amazingly, this is their first ever campaign together.
Burberry’s chief creative officer and CEO Christopher Bailey said this of the campaign models: “Naomi and Jourdan – two great British icons, two strong beautiful women and the two perfect faces for our new campaign. It is, as always, a real privilege to work with them.”
Both stars look stunning in the label’s spring/summer range, which featured insect print, suede trenches with PVC trim, and dreamy taffeta tiered frocks.
Incidentally Jourdan was seen wearing a ‘T’ earlier this year with Naomi, Kate & Cara’s name on it. Be it her mystical premonition or just pure coincidence, but we are all excited for Burberry’s new collection and the accompanying campaign!
