January 18, 20178 yr MIRANDA KERR GETS CREATIVE: NEW MOTHER DENIM COLLABORATION AND PASSION FOR INTERIOR DESIGN Already a collaborator with Samantha Thavasa and founder of Kora Organics, the model creates her first denim collection and talks about how she loves decorating houses. By Khanh T.L. Tran on January 16, 2017 As a model, Miranda Kerr is accustomed to being regarded as sexy, but in her debut as a denim designer, she picks up another descriptor that indicates her growing interest in getting creative: specific. That’s how both she and the founders of Mother sum up her vision in creating her first-ever jeans collaboration. Whether it was insisting on rises that surpassed 10 inches for a high-waisted fit (“I feel they elongate your legs,” she explained, “it kind of holds everything in as well”), hollowing the sides of a jumpsuit to spice up a utilitarian fabric or pinpointing the exact position of back pockets (“everyone wants a little lifted booty”), Kerr injected her personality, positive affirmations and a breezy vibe into the 12-piece collection. After all, she’s spent years moonlighting as a designer, having produced fine bone china with Royal Albert, tinkered with Swarovski jewelry, whipped up handbags for Samantha Thavasa and revamped the packaging at her skin-care line, Kora Organics. “I really love being creative and being able to create the elements,” she said. She seized the moment to work with Mother, which she discovered through a friend soon after the Los Angeles-based company began delivering its first collection in 2011. Since slipping on its high-waisted skinny jeans created by Tim Kaeding and Lela Becker, she’s been spotted at least 10 times in its other styles. “And I like the fact that their brand is about having fun and not taking yourself too seriously,” the 33-year-old Australian said. “She was one of the first big models and celebrities to wear our stuff,” Kaeding said. “We always had a fondness for her.” Besides, Becker added, “She has an easy comfortable style that is compatible with California style.” Thus arose the opportunity last May to partner with Kerr, who’s modeled in high-profile campaigns and runway shows for Victoria’s Secret, Seven For All Mankind, Moschino, H&M and other brands. The spring collaboration includes $105 cropped white T-shirts that are core to the model’s personal wardrobe, a $198 flared miniskirt, a $325 faded blue denim shirt embroidered with a pastel butterfly on the back and $225 shredded skinny jeans that have become Kerr’s obsession. “They didn’t want me to be out in public [in the jeans] until we launch it,” she said, adding she promised to Mother’s team: “I swear I’ll wear them inside…I am a bit of a homebody.” An affiliation with Kerr solidifies Mother’s standing as a favorite fit for models of the moment. In addition to sharing street-style snaps of Kendall Jenner and Toni Garrn sporting its jeans around town, it’s also teamed with Candice Swanepoel and Freja Beha Erichsen on designs that benefited charities. Kerr’s collection with Mother is its sixth collaboration. “Definitely the most specific and organized” was how Becker remembered Kerr’s role, especially after she assembled a 10-page PDF filled with colors, handwritten graphics for T-shirts and an image of a jumpsuit. She also veered away from Mother’s signature frayed hems toward a clean, crisp finish for the pants. “The inspiration was late Sixties, early Seventies and kind of a little bit of inspiration came from Jane Birkin and also Audrey Hepburn,” Kerr said. One style is actually called The Audrey. Hitting “a little bit above the ankle, it’s more of a classic jean,” she said. “I just made all my favorite jeans that I could ever want. Hopefully other people feel the same.” Being in touch with her feelings, particularly those that are uplifting, is integral to Kerr’s outlook on life. Hence, her washes bear names such as Absolutely, Positively for a dark indigo and Thanks for Everything for a sun-bleached color. Smile-inducing phrases and symbols like “in joy,” “attitude of gratitude” and hearts also pop up. “I just believe in the power of words,” she said. “I really like that play on words so we can be in joy not just to enjoy something. We can be in joy, we can be in that state of happiness and appreciation and when our heart feels that happiness. That’s something I kind of wanted to encourage. It’s the same thing with attitude of gratitude. Having that attitude of gratitude for everything, especially the small things that everyday we take for granted.” Plus, practically speaking, she said, “that attitude of gratitude T-shirt is a piece everyone can wear back to jeans and it sends a positive message, not only to the person wearing it but anyone who sees it worn.” Unlike other celebrity collaborations undertaken by competitors such as AG and DL1961, Mother’s tie-up with Kerr differs in that nearly all the profits are allocated to benefit Australia’s Royal Hospital for Women Foundation, where she serves as an ambassador. Though Mother didn’t provide sales estimates, Kaeding said its momentum for growth continues, tracking a sales increase of 50 percent this year from 2016, when revenue rose more than 40 percent from 2015. Following the introduction of socks and faux fur jackets last year, he’s expanding Mother’s repertoire to sweaters next fall. “It couldn’t be a better time right now to be a denim designer,” he said. “Pants as a whole have exploded in the last year or two. And denim — who doesn’t love denim? It’s a new hot thing again." Despite the absence of organic denim at Mother, Kerr came to terms with her penchant for all things natural. “Life is about a balance at the end of the day,” she said. “The great thing about denim is you can keep it for a long time if you have a favorite pair of jeans. I have some jeans and I’ve had them for at least 10 to 15 years. That in a way is being sustainable.”. ”In regards to launching her own fashion line or designing clothes for her six-year-old son, who, she said, “likes denim to be comfortable,” Kerr’s response is: “never say never.” What she’d like to explore further is interior design. “I really love different fabrics and putting things together,” she said. “I like doing vision boards and little drawings and what-not. It’s a fun process for me, and looking at different textures, I’m quite a tactile person.” She’s decorated five houses by her estimate, transforming her uptown Manhattan apartment into a “Parisian chic” abode and turning her Malibu home into a “tranquil” haven. “All of them have a different feel,” she said. “What can I say? I’m obsessed with decorating my house. I’ve always been that way. I don’t have a particular one aesthetic. Whatever house I’m in, I work around that house. I feel that house and where it is.” Harboring such a passion for interior design, Kerr has even crafted her own pitch to potential partners: “Anyone looking for an interior designer, come to Miranda. She really enjoys it.” In jeans, no less. Source: wwd.com

I've been thinking this for the last few years. Nobody really comments in her thread anymore, and usually any stuff about her is related to Kora, her kid, or some article about Evan Spiegel that by contract must mention they're engaged. The two biggest things that have changed, IMO, is she just doesn't seem fun anymore and she's got this weird reputation as a gold digger. She used to be so interesting to look at and see interviewed - funny, flirty, cute. Hooking up with that Kings of Leon guy, doing nude shoots. I dunno - she just had more personality. Now it appears to just be about the easy paycheck and hanging with her kid. Which I totally understand - it's just not interesting.

I know Lily Aldridge is married to one of them but I didn't know Miranda was with one of them as well And yeah I'd have to agree, it is understable as she has a child to take care of and probably doesn't need to work as often anymore, but that special something she used to have, it's gone.

I know Lily Aldridge is married to one of them but I didn't know Miranda was with one of them as well She *allegedly* hooked up with the bass player on Sept 13, 2009 when she was on a break from Orlando. There are photos of them here with her hand around his neck and his hand on her ass. There used to be hi-res photos online of them sitting across from each other with her legs up on her shoulders while she wore that dress, but I can only find a few small ones on Google Images. Then on the 17th, NYDaily News had this blind item : "Which supermodel mended her recently broken heart over the weekend with the very-engaged bassist of a hot rock band?" After that, on the 20th there was this blind item on Page Six about how she spent all night with Lukas Haas (of Leo DiCaprio's Pussy Posse) and bass player guy was staring at them across the room. Finally, bass player breaks up with his fiance since 2002 in November 2009. And now I regret the last 30 minutes.

And I don't agree that most of her stuff is related to Kora because she still has other contracts or projects (although not all of us are fans of her Asian commercials). She is a grown woman and a mother so it is normal that she has changed. When she was doing nude photoshoots people were constantly complaining that she is stupid, shallow and should think about her son. Some of us don't like that fact that now she is more a celebrity than a model. I won't lie, it would be great to see her in high fashion campaigns but such a year as 2010 won't happen again. At least she is a successful businesswoman. She is almost 34, we can't compare her to sweet, brainless, half naked babes, who do everything for the career. She said she wants to develop her nutrition and psychology knowledge, probably that's why she did few courses and certificates. She is writing another book,she designed own collections for few brands,she wants to try new things. There is a possibility that after 40 she'll disappear from the fashion world and we have to accept it Talking about her "allegedly relationships" - Miranda likes Kings of Leon, she was at their concerts many times. I doubt she dated that guy, one or two meetings plus few paparazzi pictures - it's not a relationship. Being flirtatious doesn't do her any favor. She was dancing with actor Lucas Haas and media started to speculate if she betrayed Orlando. As we all know there was also Gerard Butler, Justin Bieber, our favourite, poor James Packer, Steve Bing, Brad Pitt and of course the one and only Leonardo Dicaprio. Even photographer Mariano Vivanco was on the list. "Finally, bass player breaks up with his fiance since 2002 in November 2009." - to start a relationship with A. Greene, so where is Miranda in this? Many Miranda's fans finished studies, got married and have kids. They don't have time for Bellazon but we still talk to each other in private messages. She is not so popular among young people or new Bellazon users who preffer Kendall or Hadid sisters. Also it's better that people who know Miranda only as "ex Orlando's wife who slept with Bieber" don't visit her thread too often But as you can see her thread is constantly updated while many other threads are dead.
