Download Art of Taste Issue 2 MONTE CARLO THE ART OF TASTE GLIMPSES OF DISTINCTION MONTE CARLO The Art of Taste showcases the glamorous and elegant lifestyle synonymous with Monte Carlo. With its refined tone and distinctive voice, the publication provides a platform for the finest, most luxurious experiences, and bespoke treasures. Taste is more than elegance, luxury, quality, excellence and distinction. It’s a timeless sense of harmony and value. Perfection is beauty. There can be no beauty where there is no sense of taste. MONTE CARLO The Art of Taste is the official magazine for Monaco Private Label, a government company that promotes Monaco internationally. It is delivered to high net-worth Monaco Private Label members from 23 countries and presented at all events. Monaco is where one comes to dream. It’s an inspirational Principality where anything is possible. MONTE CARLO The Art of Taste aims to inspire our readers by showcasing exceptional personalities who have made this Principality their home and who have achieved international recognition. We meet Christian Garcia, chef to H.S.H. Prince Albert, applaud Michelin Chef Alain Ducasse for his 25 years at Louis XV and celebrate Geoffrey Kent’s 50th anniversary at Abercrombie & Kent, the tailor-made travel brand. Our artists – the sculptor Blake Ward; milliner David Shilling and aristocratic portrait painter Alexander Talbot Rice – uplift us all. We feature Marco Traverso, whose floral decorations bring a palette of colour to the finest events. We travel to London and meet Roja Dove, the world’s greatest perfumer, and we feature a plethora of wine writers: Matthew Jukes, Norman Remington and Burgundy oenophile, Anthony Hanson. Monaco is where I feel most creative. Every moment is special and rewarding. It is a privilege to live here and to meet the extraordinarily gifted people who have so inspired me. I’m delighted to give them a voice in MONTE CARLO The Art of Taste.

Instead of burning tobacco, they produce a rich vapour, which resembles cigarette smoke, and tastes like a conventional cigarette. With no smell or second-hand smoke, former smokers are free to enjoy their pleasures without disturbing those around them. With the switch to vapour, comes the pleasure of living a healthier lifestyle. Within a fortnight, former smokers can feel renewed. Food and wine tastes better and, with better oxygen, their skin begins to glow again.

PAGE 8 EXCLUSIVE Iconix in the Hunt To Buy HMX Group By VICKI M. YOUNG NEW YORK — HMX Group is fielding interest from potential buyers — and Iconix Brand Group Inc. is among the strongest suitors. WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 2012 ■ $3.00 ■ WOMEN’S WEAR DAILY This isn’t the fi rst time Iconix has shown interest in the fi nancially troubled men’s wear company, according WWD to market sources. But its interest is said to have “in- tensifi ed” in recent weeks, with the fi rm now seeking partners it can work with to complete a deal. Iconix is a brand-management company and would need a partner or partners to manage the operations of HMX. Sources said that in any Iconix-led transaction, the company and its partners would share HMX’s equity, although Iconix would most likely own the trademarks. The new owners would continue to operate all of HMX’s current brands, which include Hart Schaffner Marx, Hickey Freeman, Bobby Jones and Coppley. A spokeswoman for Iconix declined comment Wednesday. Doug Williams, chief executive offi cer of HMX, said, “The company doesn’t speculate on market rumors. SKNL, management and its advisers are completely fo- cused on ensuring the future of HMX and its brands.” HMX’s history originated from the now-defunct Hartmarx Corp., which was acquired out of bank- ruptcy by Indian fi rm S. Kumars Nationwide Ltd. in August 2009 and renamed HMX.

    Freundinnen. Die Damen hätten ihr gera- ten, ihre Weiblichkeit nicht zu verstecken – und statt dunkler Hosenanzüge „öfter mal Röcke und Modefarben wie Lila“ zu tragen. Dolph Lundgren, 52, schwedischer Action- Schauspieler und -Regisseur („The Defen- der“), markiert auch im echten Leben den starken Mann. Als vor einigen Monaten seine Frau und die beiden Töchter im lundgrenschen Feri- enhaus in Marbella von drei Räubern überfallen und be- raubt wurden, hielt sich der 1,96 Meter große Hüne für Film- aufnahmen im kana- dischen Vancouver auf. Jetzt vertraute der Karatekämpfer PRESS / ACTION BEA SWIETCZAK dem Stockholmer Lundgren „Aftonbladet“ an, er habe kurz nach der Tat drei Bulgaren auf die Einbrecher angesetzt. Das Trio habe einige Monate lang vergebens nach den Tätern gefahndet, um sie zur Rechenschaft zu ziehen. Die Sicherheitsvorkehrungen in dem spanischen Domizil sind inzwischen verstärkt worden – und Lundgrens Wut scheint ungebrochen: „Wenn ich bei dem Überfall zu Hause gewesen wäre, hätte es ein Blutbad unter den Dieben gegeben. Aber vielleicht ist es auch das Beste so, es wäre nicht gut für meine Kinder gewesen, all das Blut zu sehen.“ Jürgen Rüttgers, 58, Ministerpräsident von Nordrhein-Westfalen mit Hoffnung auf Wiederwahl im Mai, scheiterte am Mittwoch in Washington bei dem Versuch, RIZOLLI / SCOPEFEATURES.COM RIZOLLI den Karren mal wieder persönlich aus dem Dreck zu ziehen. Zwar legte Rüttgers Amber Le Bon, 20, Tochter von Simon Le Bon, Leadsänger von Duran Duran, und Yasmin Le Bon, bei seiner USA-Reise selbst Hand an, einem der erfolgreichsten Models aller Zeiten, tritt in die Fußstapfen ihrer Mutter. Nachdem Amber um den im Schnee festsitzenden Bus bisher eher sporadisch als Fotomodell gejobbt hat, ist sie seit Ende vergangenen Jahres bei mehreren seiner Delegation wieder flottzubekom- Agenturen zu buchen, darunter bei Elite in New York.
