Just as I thought she lost it totally, there you have it, and more … I get a lot more surprise to see her work and “model” than just playing herself, doing her rock-chick thingy. Also worth noting that, with the direction of Stefano Tonchi and Enninful, W is getting more and more exciting again, a lot more so than VogueParis (don’t get me start…) !

 At long last. A wearable designer collection that looks GREAT(!) on real people, it means something, an indication of sensational  success. If Michael Bastian modernizes the idea of All American sportswear, we can depend on AMI Paris by Alexandre Mattiussi (formerly at Dior and Givenchy) to illustrate the much needed definition of contemporary French menswear – better still at a very attractive and affordable price.

Note: we don’t necessary agree with GQ’s remark on the French, let alone this classic masterpiece they have on HK menswear retail scene, I mean i like Armoury et al, but the ridiculous remarks are just revolting, either the writer lived in a cave before 1997, or …, no, there’s no or. Full Stop. Japan my foot.

The one and only: Linda Evangelista, photographed by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott.

Apparently, the treatment for the effect on this cover is very expensive, but most folks seem to be disappointed by it. Many suggest that you can do a lot better with Linda. However, I do notice her recent editorial works tended to be soft, blurred or with effects, even with Steven Meisel. Okay, she’s botox’d, gonna be 47 this year and not as thin, but we love her as she is, just as we do to Kristen McMenamy.
