Thankfully, Céline is among them; last week, we looked at … Read more
Remember when you were freshly 18 and it felt like you could finally go out and do anything? Remember how liberating that felt?

Celebs were eternally “out and about” last week, and precious few seemed to have any real agenda. Even more shocking: very few had anything to promote. This is pretty unusual, and the lack of fervent PR activity makes me feel kind of useless, to be honest. I guess we’ve hit the movie industry lull between … Read more
Demna Gvasalia, one of the co-founders of super-popular cult fashion brand Vetements and new creative director of Balenciaga, was something of a handbag wild card when his appointment to the French brand was announced months ago.
