11 June 2014 Cash and Rocket Tour 2014 Date: 11 June 2014 Cash and Rocket Tour 2014 Six red Maseratis joined 70 high-profile inspirational women on this year’s Cash&Rocket Tour. The 70 ladies, dressed in glamorous red evening wear, completed 1600 miles over 3 days in a parade of luxury and vintage cars all wrapped in red. Amongst the starlets behind the wheel of the Maserati models were Top Shop heiress Chloe Green, Italian actress Matilde Gioli, Valentino Creative Director Maria Grazia Chiuri, jewellery designer Betony Vernon, Italian Vogue Editor Franca Sozzani and Galeries Lafayette Fashion Director, Averyl Oates. The Cash&Rocket convoy collected funds for three non-profit organisations in Africa: Shine On Sierra Leone, Orphan Aid Africa in Ghana and Sumbandila in South Africa. Last year, over $300,000 was raised for the charities; this year’s goal was to eclipse that figure and, although final figures have not yet been calculated, the total is set to exceed over £776,000. Topshop Heiress Chloe Green and co-pilot Kate Ryan, received this year’s award for raising the most money out of all of the teams, raising a staggering £217,787 so far. The Tour started in Venice on Friday 6th June before passing through Milan and finally reaching Geneva at the end of day one. During the first day the ladies enjoyed a glamorous Italian lunch at the exclusive Finger’s Garden restaurant in Milan, courtesy of Maserati. On day two the procession headed for France stopping in Reims on the way to Paris where they were welcomed to Valentino’s HQ by a line-up of Maserati models. The tour concluded last night with a final drive across the channel and an impressive 35 car, police escorted convoy to London’s Sloane Square. Later a White Gala Dinner and charity auction took place at the National History Museum; guests wore glamorous white according to the dress code and dined around the huge Diplodocus dinosaur exhibition. VIP guests in attendance at the star-studded event included designer and model Jasmine Guinness, models Daisy Lowe, Jade Parfitt and Yasmin Le Bon, television personality Jo Wood and British singer Sophie Ellis Bexter, who also performed later in the evening. Designer Delfina Delettrez Fendi also attended, arriving in immaculate style in a chauffeur driven Maserati Quattroporte. Amongst the charity auction prizes which helped raise the record beating funds were a pair of David Morris rose-cut diamond earrings, a matt black Ducati Monstor motorbike and a one-of-a- kind Valentino gown designed by Co-Creative Directors Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli which sold for an incredible £110,000.

  • Pirelli Calendar 2010 by Terry Richardson London
    Pirelli Calendar 2010 by Terry Richardson London, 19 November 2009 – The 2010 Pirelli Calendar, now in its 37th edition, was presented to the press and to guests and collectors from around the world, at its global premiere in London. The much-awaited appointment with ‘The Cal’, a cult object for over 40 years, was held this year at Old Billingsgate, the suggestive late 19th century building on the banks of the Thames, where from 1875 to 1982 it housed the capital city’s fish market. Following China, immortalized by Patrick Demarchelier in the 2008 edition, and Botswana shot by Peter Beard a year later, 2010 is the year of Brazil and of American photographer Terry Richardson, the celebrated “enfant terrible” known for his provocative and outrageous approach. In the 30 images that scan the months of 2010, Terry Richardson depicts a return to a playful, pure Eros. Through his lens he runs after fantasies and provokes, but with a simplicity that sculpts and captures the sunniest side of femininity. He portrays a woman who is captivating because she is natural, who plays with stereotypes in order to undo them, who makes irony the only veil she covers herself with. This is a return to the natural, authentic atmospheres and images of the ‘60s and ‘70s. It is a clear homage to the Calendar’s origins, a throwback to the first editions by Robert Freeman (1964), Brian Duffy (1965) and Harry Peccinotti (1968 and 1969). Terry Richardson, like his illustrious predecessors, has chosen a simple kind of photography, without retouching, where naturalness prevails over technique and becomes the key to removing artificial excesses in vogue today to reveal the true woman underneath.

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.

  • Heart of Manchester
    Heart of MaNCHeSter BID Annual Report 2013/14 THE STORY Manchester City Centre SO FAR Business Improvement District (BID) “The Heart of Manchester BID team’s passion for Manchester is contagious. It’s been an absolute pleasure working with them to deliver a new team of City Hosts.” — Calvin Lacock, Director, The Welcome People A YEAR OF SUCCESS Welcome to the first annual report of the Heart of Manchester Business Improvement District (BID). The first 12 months of our five-year term have been set against a challenging time for retail nationally, yet city centre Manchester continues to buck the trend. Manchester has outperformed the national average in sales and footfall, and many retailers are seeing an increase in basket spend as people flock to the city centre to enjoy everything it has to offer. Here at the Heart of Manchester BID, we’ve been working hard to give people even more reasons to visit. Our events, including the urban gardening festival Dig the City, the one- night-only extravaganza of Vogue Fashion’s Night Out and our extended Chinese New Year celebrations, attracted increased footfall and encouraged people to stay longer in the shopping district. Dig the City in particular was a huge hit with families over the summer, often a quieter time for retail. We’ve also invested in making sure visitors have the best possible experience through our published city guidebook, Where to Go Manchester, knowledgeable City Hosts and programme of extra street cleaning. All our achievements are laid out in this report as we look ahead to another year of success for the city centre.

  • 03 MAY 2020 Legends of British Industry by PHOTOGRAPHER ZOË LAW
    PHOTOGRAPHY BY ZOË LAW 19 MARCH – 03 MAY 2020 Legends of British Industry BY PHOTOGRAPHER ZOË LAW British photographer Zoë Law (b.1975) began a portrait project in 2017 to celebrate key individuals who have directly influenced her life and career. As the series evolved, it expanded to include more broadly inspirational figures from the worlds of fashion, finance, journalism and entertainment, whom Law ‘considered to be British legends – industry leaders, icons of the creative industries, sports stars and others’. Renowned figures of stage and screen feature alongside unsung heroes, such as voice coaches and charity leaders, each photographed in a setting conceived by the artist. A selection of these portraits are included in this display, and the complete set can be seen in the accompanying publication, Legends of British Industry. Law began her career in the music industry, and worked as a make- up artist for magazines including Tatler and Vogue, before taking up portrait photography. She works exclusively in black and white, and her portraits of Theresa May MP and Julian Fellowes, Lord Fellowes of West Stafford, have recently been acquired for the National Portrait Gallery’s Collection. This series is dedicated to Maggie’s, a charity providing free cancer support and information. Having lost family members to the disease, Law understands the vital work that Maggie’s undertakes to help people live well with cancer, and many of the sitters in Law’s portraits are passionate supporters of the organisation. Law previously collaborated with Maggie’s on the 2016 touring exhibition, Life, which featured portraits of people directly affected by cancer, representing their joy for life and resilience, during and beyond the illness.
