This poetic monster is one of those animals that are generally called “MY HONEY!” that is to say a woman with a husband chained to his legitimate wife like a beast, and looks longingly at the menu that he will never have, here is the brief summary of the collection of Monsieur Smith.

A FECAL MATTER INFLUENCER
A Fecaloid woman, and for those who read me, a bimbo named Fecal Matter! Incredible, right? Here is the scatological letter from Madame Palatine, sister-in-law of Louis XIV, great-grandmother of Marie-Antoinette! So, you can imagine that scatological texts are not reserved solely for this new generation.
“You are very happy to go shit whenever you want. So shit all your dog drunk. We are not the same here, where I am obliged to keep my turd for the evening. There is no rubbing (toilet) in the houses on the forest side. I have the misfortune of living in one, and consequently, the sorrow of going to shit outside, which annoys me, because I like to shit at my leisure, and I don’t shit at my leisure when my ass is not touching anything. Everyone sees us shitting; men, women, girls, boys, abbots and Swiss people pass by. You see by that that no pleasure without pain, and that, if we didn’t shit, I would be in Fontainebleau like a fish in water.”
SARAH BURTON THE McQUEEN GIRL
Sarah Burton has been named Givenchy’s new creative director, and she will show her first designs in March 2025. The acclaimed Burton, who spent her entire career at Alexander McQueen, becomes the French maison’s eighth designer since it was founded in 1952.
LOUIS VUITTON CUP OF SEA
GAME SET AND DIAMS
For the second year in a row, LVMH Mot Hennessy Louis Vuitton is opening a pop-up shop at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. The pop-up will be open through September.
The pop-up celebrates Tiffany Co.’s heritage in crafting sports trophies. There will be replicas of the U.S. Open Men’s and Women’s Singles Championship Trophies that the fine jeweler has crafted since 1987. The trophies are created by expert silversmiths at Tiffany & Co.’s workshop in Cumberland, R.I.
There will also be a unique Elsa Peretti Diamonds by the Yard tennis racket displayed with a leather cover painted by artisans using the ancient Japanese technique called “inden.” Continue reading
BETTY PASSED AWAY AT 96
Betty Halbreich, died Saturday in Manhattan she was 96. In addition to her discerning eye and impeccable taste, she charmed the many celebrity and typically affluent shoppers she met regularly, as well as her colleagues, and was considered an institution at Bergdorf Goodman. A native of Chicago, Halbreich was also a best-selling author.
She joined Bergdorf’s as a sales associate in 1976. The store created a personal shopping office for her upon her suggestion. Bergdorf Goodman, which is part of the Neiman Marcus Group, continues to maintain one of the strongest reputations in the retail industry for lavish, high-touch service.
WHEN MARCO POLO VISITED CATHAY
Sephora is cutting jobs in China, the LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton-owned company confirmed on Wednesday. The beauty retailer, which has operated in China since 2004, is cutting its workforce by 3%, or about 120 jobs, amid a slowing economy in China, which is not a major issue for a population of 1.4 billion.
Given the challenging market environment, the company is streamlining its organizational structure to ensure long-term sustainable growth in China. Over the past two years, Sephora has launched Anastasia Beverly Hills, Hourglass and Tatcha in China, to positive reviews. The launches of Drunk Elephant and Fenty came in May, but were less popular.
But one of the things about China is that when it comes back, you have to be nimble, and it will come back very quickly. It was reported earlier this week that Estée Lauder Cos. expects further declines in prestige beauty in China next year, while North America is also weakening.
FASHION AND THE LOUVRE
THE MAN FROM GIBRALTAR COULD WAIT
He was fired from Dior in a row and returned to Fendi as quickly as the “Parker” probe. As such, the return of the prodigal son, to the group of the lord of lords, was predictable. And even if Baudelaire, to create, drank “l’asbtreinte”, the man from Toledo, like a good sectarian, was very wrong about him, and rather than disgracing him, he should have had him treated with his addictions, for a redemption, that everyone would have understood.
“John”’s last collection for “Margiela” was like a call: the new look revisited to show the lord that not only was he cured, but that he was still just as creative. He is the man of couture excesses and excesses of all kinds, but like Verlaine or Apollinaire, to fight against absence, you sometimes have to surround yourself with lost paradises. Continue reading
BURBERRY A AMERICAN IN LONDON
The British luxury group Burberry announced this Monday the replacement of its managing director Jonathan Akeroyd, after the publication of new “disappointing performances” from a group which has suffered for months from the slowdown in demand for high-end products.
Jonathan Akeroyd, a 57-year-old Briton who arrived just over two years earlier, “resigns and leaves the company with immediate effect by mutual agreement with the Board of Directors,” Burberry announced in a press release.
He will be replaced on Wednesday by Joshua Schulman, a 52-year-old American, former boss of the American brands Michael Kors and Coach or the luxury department store Bergdorf Goodman, but also of Jimmy Choo in London, also passed during his career by Yves Saint Laurent and Gucci.
PUZZY VERY ACIDIC
Our opinions on perfume are our own, obviously, but given the perfumes that come out every day, this is the perfume that everyone has been waiting for women with excessively strong crotch sweating, a real find, so that your underwear fits you like a glove.
Puzzy, for a good slogan: “I used to be acidic, now I’m pubic.” Intimate Perfume from the Anitta brand, designed to help women feel more confident and attractive, marketers tell us. It’s formulated with natural ingredients, and it’s safe for some to never set foot in. A seductive harmony between chocolate, strawberry and vanilla, in short a cocktail from “Bachir” without the cold of the ice cream and the pistachios, but as a bonus, you can have the balls.
Anitta, real name Larissa de Macedo Machado, Brazilian singer, dancer, model, actress, businesswoman and presenter, in short, everything and nothing at the same time. She rose to fame in Brazil and Portugal, as well as other Portuguese-speaking regions. With the release of her single “Show das Poderosas” translation (The Power Show), of unparalleled power, but truly a spectacle, like her perfume, of the most distressing, she extends the long list of these brainless Bimbos who certainly degrade the status of women.
JACOBS LIKE PHARRELL WILLIAMS
In a federal court in California on Tuesday, Nirvana’s fellow band members, artist Robert Fisher and LVMH-owned Marc Jacobs International agreed to resolve their legal dispute and finalize a deal within the next three weeks. But the law firm that represented Marc Jacobs declined to comment.
In December 2018, Nirvana sued Marc Jacobs, claiming the band owned the smiley face logo through copyright. Nirvana used a smiley face with an “X” for each eye and a wry smile. During the legal proceedings, Nirvana’s lawyers claimed that the group’s founder, Kurt Cobain, created the logo around 1991. (The frontman died three years later.)
VILMORIN THE SCISSOHANDS DWARF
A copy of “Jacques Nunuche” coupled with Guo Peï, for a confrontation between the strength of desire and technical fragility, backed by physical horror, but it is true that the horror is human. We imagine the splashing of a sewer serving as an overflow, which is scattered in a shower of droplets and which clings like a tic-tac-toe to Minerva’s pubis.
Entering the dark room of “La Compagnie 1837”, a 450 m² event space located in the heart of Paris, on the first floor of the Saint-Lazare station, sealed with dark curtains, one does not wonder where the grandson of the writer wants to take us; it’s in the depths of his sewing dreams for an undeserved “Headache”. So here is the brass, fuchsia, pale indigo of Soulage, but also sphincter snorts that crackle in the horribly black shadow. Perpetual effort of Icarus whose wings always go haywire, and who falls back… sitting.
The witch with the apple is out, and in the world of sewing, you have a lot of witches… Here are the names… (no, I’m just kidding, let’s be discreet). Virginal white, cheerful fuschia or even blacker than the asshole of the world, between the three his heart swings, but the war “of the Three” will not take place with this cursed little painter.
He plays “Edward Scissorhands” for us, without Tim’s talent, to spoil the seams for us. It is true that the place really lent itself to a station novel.
LENA NOSTALGIA
Lena Erziak invites us on a journey through the depths of melancholy and the beauty that emerges from it. Each piece is an ode to the complexity of human emotions, capturing the duality between darkness and light, nostalgia and beauty.
In a world where emotions are often masked by noise and light, the collection plunges us into the heart of the human soul. Entirely crafted in black, each creation embodies the depth of melancholy, a complex and introspective emotion that reveals a rare and sublime beauty.
“Melancholia” transcends the ephemeral trends of fashion to ofer a timeless experience, where each piece is designed as a work of art. The dark fabrics, architectural cuts, and delicate details tell a story of nostalgia and contemplation, capturing the essence of beauty with unparalleled elegance.
The collection is composed of silk gazar, silk organza, duchess satin, Calais lace, brocade, and silk crepe. Notable is the exceptional work of feather artisans who adorned the looks with rooster, goose, and ostrich feathers. All the embroideries are handmade. Continue reading
RICHEMONT THE REVOLVING DOORS
Richemont revealed the two key appointments on Tuesday within hours of each other, Louis Ferla CEO of Cartier and Catherine Rénier CEO of Van Cleef and Arpels.
Ferla, currently head of Vacheron Constantin, will succeed Cyrille Vigneron as CEO of Cartier. Rénier, currently CEO of Jaeger-LeCoultre, will succeed Nicolas Bos, now CEO of Richemont, at the head of Van Cleef and Arpels.
The appointments come in a year of leadership change for Richemont, whose chairman and founder Johann Rupert is planning succession as a generation of senior executives reaches retirement age.
At Richemont, employees tend to retire between the ages of 63 and 65, although Rupert often likes to keep some as advisors or in one-off positions. Ferla, who will be 49 this year, is part of the new generation of top managers. Continue reading
ROBERT WUN 2024
Wun was born and raised in Hong Kong.He started to take an interest in fashion at the age of 11 after he “met a cool girl a few years older than me at my family’s church who started a course in fashion design”. Wun moved to London where he studied at London College of Fashion. He graduated in 2012. I call him the Jackson Pollock of fashion.
BALMAIN AND DISNEY
Olivier Rousteing certainly cannot identify with the main character of “The Lion King” but with the fashion Mickey absolutely. When he was a nine-year-old boy growing up with his adoptive parents in Bordeaux, France, he created his own kingdom, with the question of where are my parents?
To mark the 30th anniversary of “The Lion King”. One of the highest-grossing animated films of all time, chooses Balmain.
But making T-shirts and accessories is not fashion and this limited edition Disney x Balmain collection will be launched on July 8 on balmain.com and in the main Balmain boutiques, as well as Saks Beverly Hills and saks.com , or how Mr. Pierre Balmain’s image can be destroyed by transforming him into an American-style clown.
BALENCIAGA THE GAZAR BAND
ROLLAND’S SONG
DIOR ANCIENT GREECE
This season, the theme that Maria Grazia Chiuri has chosen is to highlight the relationship between the body, clothing and performance on a scaffolding of claims, as usual, ancient Greece or ancient grace? There is the question.
Already in 2022, she showed Dior at the Panathenaic Stadium in Athens with dresses traditionally worn by the women of ancient Greece, against a backdrop of futuristic sneakers or “sneakers”; modernity requires for the business of the lord of Arnault.
The designer gradually stripped her high-end collections of embroidery and ornaments, at the risk of disappointing journalists, who, in any case, disappeared from the guest lists, and who came for Couture week in Paris to admiring frothy princess dresses with extravagant trains à la Elie Saab.
This season, she used swimsuits as the basis for her loosely draped goddess dresses, adding mosaic embroidery for a touch of evening glamour, and a nod to mosaic designer Faith Ringgold, who died last April. With her hair slicked back, for models, Chiuri is usually close to the heritage of founder Christian Dior. On the other hand, this time, there were hardly any nods to the archives of the master of Granville, but the collection was more reminiscent of the dresses of Madame Alix Grès.
