The Academy of Cinema and Television encourages modeling students to study and be aware of fashion styles and trends. CosmoGIRL! (www.cosmogirl.com) is a magazine that attempts to empower and inspire young women to be leaders in all aspects of their lives. From setting the latest trends to standing up for what they believe in, their readers are encouraged to step-up to the plate and LEAD. CosmoGIRL! publishes ten issues annually, as well as CosmoGIRL! Prom.
Vicki Wellington has been named publisher of CosmoGIRL! magazine, today announced Michael A. Clinton, executive vice president, chief marketing officer and publishing director of Hearst Magazines. Wellington was most recently the founding associate publisher of domino magazine. She will assume her new role on March 10 and will report to Clinton.
In a press release today, Sam Brown (public relations officer for Sandbox Couture, a retailer of children’s clothing), announced that “Many children’s clothing brands this season boast the idyllic fashions with soft tones of pinks, reds, blues and yellows as seen in the Asian inspired designs of Mad Sky Infant Kimono Sets. Designers are also pulling from the seventies, combining tye-dye with newer, edgier imprints of current tribal like patterns.”
Brown went on to add that “the hard rock meets outdoor garden fashions are quite popular in the pre-teen and children’s sizes.”
Students at the Academy of Cinema and Television know the importance of staying on top of current fashion trends and wearing the most fashionable styles when going on an interview for modeling or fashion related work.
The staff at the Academy of Cinema and Television are always thrilled when they receive outstanding news about student successes.
When an email came in from student Ashley Wolff’s dad, Dustin Wolff – a mortgage loan consultant in Phoenix, the entire office was a buzz. Here is his note to Director Jack White: “, we can’t believe how far she has come in just eight weeks! We can tell a big difference in her auditioning skills from when she first started, and her confidence level has greatly improved. Ashley recently signed an exclusive contract with S.I.M. Agency in their modeling/print division, she is very excited and can’t wait to see where it takes her!”
Dustin And Stephanie Wolff have good reason to be proud of their daughter’s success. Getting signed on an exclusive contract with S.I.M Agency is certainly news worth celebrating. We hope to hear more about Ashley in the months to come…
One can usually depend on the Oscars for insight into the world of fashion, and this year fashion model Heidi Klum and actress/singer Miley Cyrus were two of the most well-dressed ladies in attendance.

The Academy of Cinema and Television does its best to keep readers and students informed of breaking news in the Fashion and Entertainment Industries.
Each different Fashion Week has its own feel to it. Even in the ready-to-wear collections that aren’t as far out there as the couture collections, there are still notable differences between Milan, New York, Paris, and London.
What I love about London’s Fashion Week is the ominpresence of Cheeky Fashion. The London catwalks are always full of designers who are taking traditional styles and putting a wink and a nudge on them and turning them into something new.
From Paul Smith the audience saw cross-country ski boots being cut, modified, and spruced up with surprising dashes of color on the heels and soles.
