COMPILED BY GAILE ROBINSON

Shana Zadrick, the super model in the Guess jeans ads who looks like Gina Lollabrigida and commands a $10,000-a-day rate, has news. She’s stopped working for Guess and will be appearing in Calvin Klein fragrance ads instead. Sharon Padua, a spokesperson for Men/Women, Zadrick’s modeling agency, says sharing space with model Karen Mulder in the Guess ad campaign was a factor. “I think if Guess offered Shana a solo spot, it’s something she might reconsider.”

THE SHOW CONTINUES: Only days after she was felled by exhaustion, Liz Taylor has rescheduled her personal appearance at Robinson’s Del Amo store for 2 p.m. Thursday. (The original, scheduled for last Thursday, was abruptly canceled.) Taylor will be out pushing her White Diamonds fragrance four days after her wedding to longtime beau Larry Fortensky.

OH, JACKIE: Reproductions of memorable clothing that Jacqueline Kennedy wore will be displayed at Saks Fifth Avenue Beverly Hills through Oct. 14. Four milestone outfits, including her silk faille wedding gown and the pink Chanel suit she was wearing when President Kennedy was assassinated, are part of the wardrobe that will appear in the NBC miniseries “A Woman Named Jackie” airing Oct. 13-15. Also included in the display is a copy of the Jean-Louis dress Marilyn Monroe wore when she sang “Happy Birthday” to President Kennedy. Costume designer for the show Shelly Komarov is something of an expert on Kennedy garb. She won an Emmy two years ago for her costumes from the miniseries “The Kennedys of Massachusetts.”

VIDEO WAVES: OK folks, move close to the tube and watch the fashion parade. If it’s hairstyles you want, check out Carol Burnett in “The Carol Burnett Show,” back on weekly TV soon, Twiggy in “Princesses” now airing, and Julie Andrews in “Julie,” her upcoming sitcom. They get their tresses tamed by John of Michaeljohn in Beverly Hills, who has just been Daryl Hannah’s tress keeper on the soon-to-be-released “Memoires of the Invisible Man.” Next, switch to the new “Joan Quinn, etc . . . “on BHTV (Channel 3) where Quinn, former West Coast editor of Interview magazine, continues to interrogate “people at the cutting edge of every field.” And that includes designers Zandra Rhodes and Romeo Gigli. Now switch off the set and remember “thirtysomething,” which lives on, we’re told, in the catalogue of the same name. If you can’t resist clothing that will remind you of your favorite television yuppies, send $3 to thirtysomething, 499 Seventh Ave., New York, N.Y. 10018.

SHOW AND TELL: Angelenos may know D. N. Evans for her store, D. N. Evans Couture, on Sunset Boulevard.

Evans is reciprocating by taking her fashion collection to show the Prince.

WORTH THE WAIT: Actresses Teri Garr and Connie Selleca, and model Beverly Johnson were all in attendance at the Cinema Cafe on Melrose Avenue last Saturday when hometown girl Daniele Worth showed her DJW Collection. The 25-year-old Worth is a recent graduate of New York’s Parsons School of design and her clothes are already on the racks at Theodore in Beverly Hills and Tracey Ross in Los Angeles. She is not an overnight success though. Worth landed her first job at age 14 at Jerry Magnin in Beverly Hills.
