She’s made television appearances on Royal Pains and Ugly Betty, and now Brooklyn Decker’s continuing her entertainment takeover and giving you DVDs!

Along with Elle, the model created a series of videos about fitness and nutrition called Make Better, showing off the best workouts and lifestyle regimes. As the host, Brooklyn will take you to yoga, through a cardio workout, and even on Cirque de Soleil’s Jukari Fit to Fly trapeze. The three DVDs will sell on Amazon and HSN beginning December 8th. “Who wouldn’t want [Elle creative director] Joe Zee to style your products and have them worn by Brooklyn?” said Dianne Hayes, Reebok’s head of global entertainment marketing. The workouts range in length, perfect for the on-the-go schedule of a model. We’re pretty sure between Brooklyn’s DVDs and Anja Rubik’s Yoga for Wii, you’ll be set.

Hey Models of the Runway fans!

Finally, after months and months of waiting, the results of Project Runway and Models of the Runway were announced! The finale was filmed in February, and the results have been kept under wraps until now… and Irina is the winning designer and I am the winning model!

While Althea and Carol Hannah had strong collections, Irina certainly was deserving of the grand prize. Irina’s collection was so detailed and cohesive, and I loved the 13th look she had me wear on the runway.

Wow! I was so overwhelmed and excited to have the honor of being paired with the winning designer. Having my parents there during Fashion Week and to share in the excitement of winning was very meaningful to me. It was fun to relive the winning moment when I watched the show last night at a viewing party with Irina and several other Project Runway designers and models….so exciting!

Tanisha, Lisa, and I had our last “Heidi chat” on the runway, and she took us through some of the highlights of the first season of Models of the Runway. What a crazy, wonderful journey—we all enjoyed seeing the drama, laughter, joy, and tears throughout the competition. We were all proud of our designers and honored to be a part of such a fabulous show.

I am very excited to shoot the Marie Claire spread and to receive the $25,000 prize! So many new doors are already opening, and I hope to use this opportunity to take the next steps in my career, both in modeling and acting. A big thank you to Modelinia, and to all of the amazing fans and supporters!

auf Wiedersehen!

Editor’s Note: Congrats Kalyn! We’re so proud of you!

If there’s one magazine that could rival us in love for models, it’s i-D. For the Winter 2009 issue, the glossy is bestowing a generational-themed trio of covers: one featuring newbie Georgia May Jagger, another featuring It girl Lara Stone, and a third featuring a supermodel triumvirate of Eva Herzigova, Helena Christensen, and Claudia Schiffer.

Five models, three covers, one issue—leave it up to the supreme beings at i-D to come up with that awesome ratio.

Plus, if you’ve been missing Heather Marks as much as we have, check her out on the December cover of Elle Italia. We’re calling the look “Santa’s chic little helper,” which comes complete with blue suede thigh-highs, of course. ~ Tim Mitchell

After a long hard day, the Victoria’s Secret models earned their due party, as everyone traipsed from the Lexington Avenue Armory to M2 UltraLounge for a night of dancing and celebration.

Walking into the party was a sensory overload, from the mass of people to the huge jumbotrons replaying the fashion show. Models were escorted through the center VIP section, walking on a platform to get to their designated section. Alessandra Ambrosio took on the bustier trend in Valentino, while Chanel Iman kept it flirty in Marc Jacobs. Candice Swanepoel chose an all-white Cushnie et Ochs, as Miranda Kerr went for the animal-print trend in Christian Dior, and Marisa Miller (among many) donned a tight Hervé Léger number. Behati Prinsloo stuck close to her adorable boyfriend, Jamie Strachan, and kept the understated glamour look that she does so well in a simple gray T-shirt dress with ruched sides. Selita Ebanks went for a gold look in Alexander Wang, snapping pics with her cell phone, while Lily Aldridge made an appearance dressed in Thomas Wylde since she just shot his new campaign, then took off downtown for the New Moon premiere after-party to meet up with Jessica Stam, Lydia Hearst, Agyness Deyn, Irina Lazareanu, and Liya Kebede.

Back in pinkland, the Black Eyed Peas took it upon themselves to get the party started correctly, as Taboo stood up on the couch during their song, “I Got a Feeling,” raising his arms and convincing all the girls to start jumping. And that’s exactly when the evening really began. In between photo snaps from personal cameras, air kisses, and huge smiles, it was obvious to see the night had transpired successfully for everyone. Charlotte Stockdale, the stylist, was coerced into the center to dance with all of her models, while Heidi Klum took up residence with her family, dancing about in her black latex dress by Fierce Couture with white accents and mini gloves to match.

As Modelinia was leaving, we caught Caroline Winberg snapping pictures with fans, as they screamed, “Let’s hear it for Sweden!”
