Fashion news: Marc Jacobs makes the Time 100, Armani pairs up with Reebok and the Prada alphabet
Marc Jacobs and Liya Kebede made the Time 100 list, which comes out on newsstands Thursday. Victoria Beckham interviews Jacobs for the issue and Tom Ford talks to Kebede. [WWD]
Models are appearing in more ads than celebrities, suggesting a turn of the tide in celebrity-heavy spots. Karl Lagerfeld cites celeb overexposure, while the Marilyn Agency’s Robert Ferrell suggests the economic crisis might have something to do it–having a celebrity can “double or triple” the budget. YSL designer Stefano Pilati just plain likes to work with models: “[Actresses] have an attitude, but will never be the fashion attitude. To me, fashion photography is with a model; otherwise, it’s a portrait.” [WWD]
Emporio Armani and Reebok have created a footwear and fitness apparel label, dubbed EA7, which, on top of running tanks, work-out pants and fleece hoodies, will include harem pants so you can fit in with the weightlifters, we suppose. [WWD]
The world’s 10 most powerful luxury brands, according to brand strategy firm Millward Brown Optimor, are Louis Vuitton, Hermès, Gucci, Chanel, Hennessey, Rolex, Moët & Chandon, Cartier, Fendi and Tiffany & Co. If you’re wondering what the list looked like last year, that’s pretty much it. (Tiffany was the only name not on the list.) [Fashionista]
A pair of graphic artists have created a set of alphabet tees for Prada. The abstract letters P-R-A-D-A-M (the M standing for Milano) are made up of “cleaning implements, Italian phrases, strange machines and a picture of two men standing on a balcony.” You can buy the full set of six, which includes 64-page album, or order other letters individually.

Pantyhose are out, which you already knew, but your mom will probably be sad to hear. [Toronto Star]
