Colette Carnaval: 1997/2012 (15 Years)
For a whole week-end, Colette celebrated its 15th birthday. Outside its walls, under a gigantic tent of 4 000m2 in the Garden of Tuileries, the shop invited brands and collaborators to run stands and attractions in a festive atmosphere. Food stands, design, beauty, fashion, musical animation, sport and art, a great choice which illustrates the eclecticism of Colette. With a free entrance and for a wide public, the event was a sucess. 2 000 entrance a day, 4 000 for the whole week-end.

Infographic on the deep sea
From the BBC: “Icy cold, pitch black and with crushing pressures — the deepest part of the ocean is one of the most hostile places on the planet. Only two explorers have made the epic journey there: 11km (seven miles) down to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean’s Mariana Trench. As a new wave of explorers is gearing up to repeat this remarkable dive, take a look at the mysterious world that they will be plunging into.”

The Sartorialist: Lunch for 25
The Sartorialist: Lunch for 25 from The Sartorialist on Vimeo.
I absolutely love this idea that Scott Schuman, otherwise known as The Sartorialist, has started as a “Lunch for 25″ series. Here’s what he had to say –
About a year ago, Scott and I were sitting at a small Trattoria in Florence. The place looked amazing– not only the simple and traditional decor, but also the irreproducible Italian atmosphere and overall elegance of the gentlemen.
“Doesn’t this place look like the best fashion story ever?” I asked Scott.
“Yes!” He said, “Real, cool, diverse– It’s like if all the best dressed guys I know got together for lunch….. We should just do that! Get my favorite guys together in one room, it would be so much fun. These guys have so much in common and yet, for most of them, their paths never cross. Just imagine, someone like Gianluca, with his dreadlocks and modern-minimalist aesthetic sitting next to Lino, with his old-school Italian charm…. Mr. Kurino and Simone Righi discussing their first suit, Kanye and Terron talking about whatever it is those two super funny characters could dream up… I’m just guessing, but I bet these guys would really hit it off. What a great way to forge new friendships.”
“Scott… You should do it!!!” the idea sounded fantastic to me.
And that’s what Scott did. I can tell you, I was so jealous not to be in Florence for The Inaugural Sartorialist Lunch. But, here are a few photographs and a video to let you share the first of what we hope will become a biannual event that grows every year through a continually increasing diversity of style and deepening camaraderie between friends.
Hope you enjoy,
Garance & Scott
*We would like to thank Simone and Guido in Florence for their helping to make this event happen, it would not have been the same without you.
