Naomi Campbell Calls Out Fashion Industry's Racism

Plus plus-size Rent the Runway, David Beckham's new tat, and more of the top stories of the day
• Naomi Campbell thinks that the fact that there are so few women of color taking part in fashion week deserves to be called out. "I'm saying the act of not choosing models of color is racist," she told The Telegraph. "We are not calling them racist, we are saying the act is racist." And she's naming names: "Phoebe Philo [creative director at Céline] -- she's a cool girl. But Céline has never had a colored person showing in their collection. Ever. And yet they have the best accessories; every black woman who has money buys her accessories." Okay then. [Telegraph]



• Hallelujah! Rent the Runway is adding plus sizes to its repertoire. Is anyone surprised that Rent the Runway didn't already carry plus-sized garments? [WWD]

• Aw, sweet love: Hot piece of soccer butt David Beckham got wife Victoria's name tattooed on his hand. His hand. That is serious! This is David's second Vicky-themed tat: He also has a ring of ten roses around his bicep to commemorate their first ten years of marriage together. How is he the most perfect dude ever? [Us Magazine]

• Are you ready for vaginareobics? How about vaginamins -- that is, vitamins specifically for your vag? Because they may be coming down the pike. [The Gloss]
