Not only does "The Face" have supermodel icons Naomi Campbell, Karolina Kurkova and Coco Rocha in "the front of house" in fashion speak, behind the scenes, legendary fashion stylist Patti Wilson was creating the stellar, droolworthy looks seen on the show. Wilson's a really big deal in the fashion world (and the nicest person, by the way). She began her prolific career in the 90s at the cutting edge i-D magazine and Vogue Italia. Since then, she's styled major star power, including Lady Gaga, Brad Pitt, Rihanna, Britney Spears, Beyoncé, Alicia Keys and Dakota Fanning and worked with big time photographers like Terry Richardson, Ellen von Unworth and Steven Meisel (who Coco credits as making her career). Now she's working on our little ol' show, "The Face," and took the time to share some incredible stories (Cameron Diaz dress 911!), plus insight on how this whole styling for TV really works.
I've had the chance to spend time on the set of "The Face," which is coming soon to Oxygen. There’s not a lot I can reveal right now, except it’s like “America’s Next Top Model” meets "The Voice" and is hosted by Nigel Barker. Thankfully, however, I can spoil all in regard to the show's clothes and accessories. And I’m happy to say "The Face" is no ordinary reality show when it comes to the wardrobe department. Let us get to the nitty gritty, starting with Naomi Campbell.
