Carine Roitfeld quits Vogue Paris



Carine Roitfeld has announced today that she will quit Vogue Paris by the end of this month. She's said to leave to devote herself to personal projects.

This is a big loss for Vogue Paris, no matter the reasons why she's leaving. She has turned this magazine in one of the best - if not the best - in the world. As Mickey Boardman told me on Twitter, "No other major editor of a fashion mag is also a stylist. French Vogue under Carine Roitfeld has been very unique and amazing".

Breitling New Transocean Limited Edition

01


A brand-new Breitling model is taxiing along the runway, ready for takeoff. The Transocean with its modern lines, pure design and refined details admirably reflects the spirit of luxury and prestige of the finest long-haul journeys. Aboard its understated, streamlined fuselage is a high-performance "engine" entirely developed and produced in the Breitling workshops. As a preview celebration of this future classic, the brand with the winged B is introducing a Transocean Chronograph Limited special series fitted with a transparent caseback revealing Breitling Caliber 01 – doubtless the best chronograph movement in its category.

For official retailers, please visit www.breitling.com.

Fabulous: Oscar de la Renta, "The Sample Room"



Oscar de la Renta and his artistic director Raffaele Ilardo take us in this exquisite behind the scenes video at their "The Sample Room", where they create both Ready-to-Wear and Haute Couture collections, in the "old fashion" way, as Oscar says.
This video is very interesting - they show us how they work, and lot of more interesting things.
