No doubt true enough on a molecular level, but try telling it to the poor soul who’s praying to Saint Anthony to find RRhis car keys. ¶ It seems an appropriate bit of wisdom for us here at WWD, though: This thumping new weekly is, in real terms, our transformation. It’s a cumulative build on 105 years of reporting on the fashion, retail and beauty industries. ¶ In concert with an incessant stream of news on WWD.com, wide-reaching social media, a daily PDF and decades-rich archives (that’s the “nothing is lost” part), this new weekly will offer context, trends, deeper analysis and compelling imagery. We’ll dig into the fashion, social, cultural and economic developments underpinning a business that’s shot through with contradictions: high/low, chic/vulgar, humble/egomaniacal, authentic/ pretentious, celebratory/tragic. ¶ So what exactly is this? A newsweekly? A fashion weekly? An evolved species? Yes, yes and yes. ¶ Our primary mission is clear: inform the industry via our international network of reporters and editors, while not forgetting that the civilian population following the fashion world has never been more fascinated with its insider exotica.

    #VIRTUOSOSYM VIRTUOSO SYMPOSIUM SOUTH AFRICAN AIRWAYS CAPE TOWN 2016 WELCOMES YOU TO CAPE TOWN South Africa is delighted to host the 2016 Virtuoso Symposium. As the national April 17, 2016 carrier, South African Airways is honored to be chosen as the offi cial airline for the Symposium. We extend to you a warm welcome to Cape Town and thank you Dear Virtuosos, for your support. Welcome to Cape Town! How appropriate that we meet for our 36th annual Virtuoso Symposium in the Mother City, a destination known for its cultural diversity, warmth, and sense of community. When I first talked about communities last August at Virtuoso Travel Week, I quoted Simon Sinek’s definition: “A group who agrees to grow together.” In effect, we’re the 2016 Symposium community who are here to forge stronger bonds through shared travel experiences, so please take a moment to join me in thanking our Symposium sponsor partners who play such an integral role in how we’ll experience South Africa together. They’re all featured in the pages that follow. The Virtuoso Events team and our Cape Town hosts have really outdone themselves with spectacular venues and personal touches topped with a myriad of Design Your Day activities to fully immerse your- self in South Africa. Whether wine lands or peninsula, sidecar ride or city walk, philanthropic or retail therapy, we’ve got you covered. Of course, we have you covered on the business side of Symposium as well. We’ll hear from three com- pelling speakers: Eric McNulty – Director of Research, Harvard’s National Preparedness Leadership Ini- tiative, Dave Pavelko – Partnerships Director, Travel – Google Inc., and David Scowsill – President and CEO, World Travel & Tourism Council.

Cruising Past Spring: Resort’s Importance Overshadows Runway By WWD Staff PARIS — For a season originally inspired by vacations, cruise is certainly working overtime. Indeed, the season has so far eclipsed runway collections in scale and growth that some are questioning the logic of the current international fashion calendar, stopping short of demanding an immediate upheaval. As designers put more fashion into their pre-collection deliveries, retailers are less and less dependent on runway shipments to drive sales and profitability, said Jim Gold, Bergdorf Goodman’s See Cruise, Page8 PHOTO DOMINIQUE BY MAITRE 2 WWD, TUESDAY, JUNE 21, 2005 WWD.COM Badgley Mischka Sets Bridge Line By Rosemary Feitelberg decision was far from rash. enues that more people can af- WWDTUESDAY “We’ve been doing Badgley ford to buy,” Mischka said.

  • Boudoir & Fine Art Photography: the Intersection of Fun & Seduction
    Boudoir & Fine Art Photography: The Intersection of Fun & Seduction A Guide for First Time Clients and Veteran Boudies Monumental Arts Professional Fine Art Photography Boudoir & Fine Art Photography: Introduction So you are thinking about a Boudoir & Fine Art photography session – how exciting! But what is a boudoir & Fine Art session? Sounds simple – it’s just a sexy portrait session, right? Yes, no, and maybe, all at once! Boudoir is a unique and intimate style of photography – and whether you're looking for a romantic, glamour, pin-up, or fantasy session, it takes a big step to jump right in. Boudoir photography is a broad genre of photography that involves female subjects in sensual and suggestive poses. It is distinct from erotic photography in its emphasis on the aesthetic qualities of the subject and the craftsmanship of the photographic process over the sexually stimulating nature of the image. So, whether you are a veteran in front of the camera or brand new to the role, there are some things you should know about Boudoir & Fine Art photography. Tasteful, Private, and Confidential Sessions One of the top questions I’m asked regarding boudoir is “will these be online”? I have photographed over 300 boudoir sessions since I started in 2012 – most are completely private and are never seen online. In other words, if you don’t want your images shown on my website as examples, they never will be! I guarantee “Tasteful, Private, and Confidential Sessions!” Boudoir & Fine Art Styles Boudoir: Boudoir, as mentioned above, typically involves female subjects in sensual and suggestive poses.

Six days after a massive earthquake and tsu- nami hit Japan, damaging the Fukushima nucle- ar plant 124 miles northeast of the capital city, Chanel was handing out iodine tablets to work- ers and Hennes & Mauritz and PPR temporarily relocated offi ces. And some brands stopped giv- ing updates on their operations in the country. Ordinarily accessible, Polo Ralph Lauren Corp., Burberry and Paul Smith, as well as several other fi rms, did not respond to requests for comment Thursday. Procter & Gamble Co. issued a state- ment saying all its employees were safe, but a spokeswoman declined to say whether they had been instructed to leave Tokyo. Many fi rms in the capital have already given their employees the green light to work remotely, given rolling blackouts on the edges of the city and erratic train service. Japan’s Energy and Trade Ministry warned Thursday that there was a risk of a widespread blackout in the Tokyo area. That prompted many to leave work and stores to close their doors earlier than usual.

PAGE 2 APPEAL EXPECTED Dolce and Gabbana Guilty in Tax Trial By LUISA ZARGANI SPRING 2014 MILAN — Guilty. That was the verdict handed down to Domenico MILAN Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, as well as four other MEN’S defendants, here Wednesday afternoon in the design- COLLECTION ers’ long-running tax evasion case. Judge Antonella THURSDAY, JUNE 20, 2013 ■ WOMEN’S WEAR DAILY ■ $3.00 PREVIEW Brambilla sentenced the designers and accountant Luciano Patelli to one year and eight months in jail, WWD plus legal expenses. Dolce’s brother Alfonso, gen- eral director Cristiana Ruella and fi nance director Giuseppe Minoni were sentenced to one year and four months in jail plus legal expenses. There is little chance the designers and the other defendants will serve any jail time because the sen- tences are below the two-year minimum generally re- quired in Italy to do so. The defendants were also charged with paying the Revenue Agency a provisional fi ne of 500,000 euros, or $668,650 at current exchange. The plaintiff solicitor Gabriella Valadia at the end of May asked for a provision- al fi ne of 10 million euros, or $13 million, citing damages to the image of the Revenue Service. Valadia at the time claimed that tax evasion “shows a system that is not cred- ible and effi cacious, it hurts the credibility of the Italian fi scal system, aggravated by the fact that the individuals at the center of the trial are so famous.” The court’s fi ne is separate from one imposed by the Revenue Agency of more than 400 million euros, or $535 million at current exchange, at the end of March.

In Japan’s Ginza it’s the same thing — I think it’s a symbol of the Japanese dream,” Yanai, chair- man, president and chief executive officer of Fast Retailing, said at a press conference. “Being able to open our newest and largest global flagship store in Ginza…is really the most exciting thing [possible].” The executive said the store is aiming for annual sales of 10 billion yen, or $119.94 million, which he admits is an ambitious target. The Uniqlo and Dover Street stores are two of the more ambitious retail openings in Tokyo as of late.
