Glow in the Dark - Brilliant!


“Because V needed to lighten up and brighten this Spring, we’re in dark times!” - Stephen Gan
Spring 2009 issue of V Magazin brings us a special cover page that glows in the dark. The cover features Natalia Vodianova and actor Lukes Grimes, photographed by Mario Testino. A layer of UV gloss covers the front to make it glow in the dark. So cool!

It landed in shops to days ago (Friday, 6 march).

John Rawlings 1921-1970


With over 200 Vogue and Glamour covers to his credit and 30,000 photos in archive, John Rawlings (1921-1970) immortalized the era in which American fashion and style truly came into their own.

Six Scents


A new, interesting collection of perfumes named Six Scents came out of fertile cooperation of the houses of Symrise, Metaproject and Seven New York. It gathered perfumers and artists with an aim to present a fragrant scale, contemporary view of creativity, culture, awareness and collecting.
