Street style favorite Joanna Hillman has been named style director of Harper's Bazaar. She had been the magazine's senior fashion market editor for over three years.

The new job is one of a trio of promotions that follow the departure of Bazaar's features director Anamaria Wilson, who's now vice president of global corporate communications at Michael Kors, and its executive editor Kristina O'Neill, who left to become editor of WSJ. Magazine. Nicole Fritton has been named fashion market and accessories director, and Elisa Lipsky-Karasz is the magazine's new features editor.

Hillman got her first job in the industry as an assistant to stylist Lori Goldstein, who she worked with for two years. She then moved to Teen Vogue for four years, where she ultimately served as senior fashion market editor. Hillman joined the Bazaar team in September 2009.

All three promotions coincide with a new arrival at Bazaar: Earlier this month, the magazine announced that Carine Roitfeld would become its global fashion director.

Some of New York's top modeling agencies are named in a multimillion-dollar lawsuit that alleges they've used shady accounting practices to hold onto money they should have paid their models.

A group of models claiming that Ford, Wilhelmina, Elite, and Women, among others — as well as brands like L'Oréal, Aveda, and Revlon — have withheld hefty portions of their royalties. Louisa Raske, a model who appeared on the May/June 2005 cover of Brides, at left, is leading the class action suit and seeks $20 million in damages. Her 19-page summons claims that these agencies commonly work on the models' behalf without the models knowing it, and arrange deals "as if the modeling agencies had contacted the models and had the legal authority to execute the documents."

The suit goes on to say that "since the models are unaware of the extended/expanded usages for which the modeling agencies have negotiated and received payment on their behalf . . . the models never demand or receive payment, and at the very least, the modeling agencies are unjustly enriched by the models' funds."

Raske's suit also claims that in a similar case decided in 2005, some models were told they would "never again model in New York" if they sued their agencies. The models in that case won a $22 million settlement.

Representatives for Ford and Wilhelmina did not respond to requests for comment on this post. But Susan Scafidi, founder of the Fashion Law Institute at Fordham University and a board member of the Model Alliance, told us that model payment has been an issue for quite some time.

"Models have repeatedly expressed concern about lack of transparency in agency accounting practices," Scafidi said in an email. "While some agencies are more conscientious and professional than others, a lawsuit was perhaps inevitable — though the scale of this one is quite dramatic."
