David Lynch, American director, screenwriter, producer and artist emerged in the late 1970s as a new creative force within the film world. Nominated for three Oscars (Elephant Man 1980, Blue Velvet 1986 and Mulholland Drive 2001) and winner several times at the Cannes and Venice Film Festivals, Lynch has consistently created new departures in film making. FETISH sees Lynch in the guise of photographer, directing the models and composing visually arresting and extreme images.

Parisian born Louboutin has been designing shoes since the late 1970s and his highly sought after designs have led to an impressive clientele list from Angelina Jolie to Princess Caroline of Monaco. Louboutin was asked to make a collection… ‘David Lynch asked me to design shoes for his exhibit at the Cartier Foundation. David Lynch is one of the greatest living film-makers. Since his films are extremely coded, I wanted fetishist shoes, since that fantasy also obeys codes. A lot of people only see the shoe as a walking accessory. If ever a wardrobe had a fetish object, it is the woman’s shoe, even without heels. It has the allure of a sacred totem._’Christian Louboutin

Christian Louboutin and David Lynch,  a combination of excellence! I absolutely love the fetish shoes!!!

David Lynch’s work is currently being exhibited in a gallery based in Hong Kong called “The Cat Street Gallery.”

It is home to the best and the
brightest and often the most beautiful. Finding those beauties can be a tall order but the
incredibly fresh fashion showcase Face of the City created by Fabio Tonelli, Valentina
Brugnoli & Piergiorgio Del Moro (DMFASHIONSTUDIO USA), Eleonora Quizmolli
(Sensation of House) & Mina Quizmolli (MU Photography) step up to the plate to do just
that. Their inaugural show held at NYC’s Nikki Beach took place this past winter season.
Over twenty beauties competed in the event in order to be crowned the new “Face of the
City”. The judges included Diana Santi of New York Film Academy, Francesco Belcaro
of Made In Italy, Marco Piana, Philip L. McKenzie of Karin + Raoul , Edward Dalton
of Attica, model, Anastasia Khodkina and recording artist, Kristine Elezaj. Given such
an array of talent the judges had their work cut out for them…in the end two beauties
were left standing. Miss Abieja Jammeh of TOP-Choice Models (Syrah Scott CEO)
walked away as the winner and was crowned as the 2010 “Face of the City”.

Winner – Miss Abieja Jammeh of TOP-Choice Models

Abieja hails from Gambia and has long wanted to pursue a career in modeling. She has been cast in numerous commercials, stage productions and competes in pageants. Despite her focus on her career she is very devoted to her native Gambia and intends to use her success in fashion to help those less fortunate at home. This September as we prepare to kick off fashion week here in NYC she will be flying to Milan courtesy of Face of the City & DMFASHIONSTUDIO USA to participate in casting for their fall season shows The 1st runner up is Miss Margherita Medici. She is Sicilian but was raised here in NYC.

2nd Runner up Miss Margherita Medici

She was first discovered by the editor for Italian Vanity Fair and has not only graced their
pages but those of BlackBook Magazine, ID Magazine and Numero. This fall she will be
taking acting courses at the New York Film Academy.

September is almost here again and the Face of the City team is gearing up for their 2nd
show that promises to provide us with new talent, new dreams and of course new faces.
Special thanks go out to all event participants and sponsors including: New York Film
Academy, Karin + Raoul Magazine, FREE Magazine, Yourmakeupbox, Le Salon
Chinois, Top Choice Models, Enrico Coveri, Parah, Micky London, Attica, Kraft,
