The task is again to finally get the interview with the "She" model done, wrapped, and packed to go home. The result? You need to read the article.
There is a saying that if I remember correctly goes like this: you should know when to stop, or when you are crossing the line. Thankfully, I respectfully don't follow these polite guidelines. After not being able to sleep tormented by "She", after pleading with hair stylists, make up artists over which one of us would get fired if we don't get "She" pinned down, I've found my inner peace and did a quick meditation session.
The important thing in a very quick meditation session amidst a crowd of photographers, staff, and hair dryers blowing in your ears, is - well - to be quick. Or find your Ichinen - determination - and believe in it. After which it's magic... voilà!
Obsviously, the fiercer you get the more the universe creates complications. The mood of the collection: Masculine, Feminine. Now, how is one supposed to find a "She"? Is she being a "She" or is she a "He"... ?
Once again, the models helped me, or should I say the "boys".
The Lady is over there....
Crawling on the floor looking for "She"...
Too many blondes, but I manage to get by without getting hit by a brush.
This model was very sad she couldn't help me out.
A he.
A she.
And SHE!!!!!!! Constance Jablonski. Beautiful.
And of course even during the interview I have to manage the hair stylist.
To Constance Jablonski - merci. "I know you must think I am crazy-fanatic and a stalker. But your model-profiling will be superbe."

At 27, Dolce&Gabbana have achieved an impressive status, client base and cult following. The brand’s capacity to take the artistic traditions and aesthetic of Italy and make them their own is unsurpassable and highly romantic to fashion lovers. Their idiosyncratic designs, ironic take on classic dress and the brand’s emblematic items have all contributed in making Dolce&Gabbana a household name. For this instalment of our archive lead considerations of what makes up the Dolce&Gabbana DNA we concentrate on maybe one of the strongest statement the designers have made over the years: the corset.
When I was a child, my parents used to take me to a little village, where we would have almond “granita” and collect fresh water form a little drinking fountain, afterwards. This little place is called Scopello and it was time for me to return to my childhood and explore as an adult.
The scenario is…you are only in London for 24hrs. This doesn’t have to mean being stuck in your hotel wanting but not knowing what to do. Enlightened travellers continually ask the question - What would a Londoner do? Have no fear Luxury London is here…
There’s no need to go far afield to exotic locations to find adventure. In recent years adventures have been rediscovering urban winders right on our very doorsteps. Urban Exploration, known also as Urbex or UE, is an (often illegal) activity that explores unseen or unknown sights in the urban environment.
It appears that Ivan Olita’s scouting has led him straight to New York City’s very own scout, a movie location scout to be exact. Nick Carr’s job means that he gets to explore every nook and cranny that NYC has to offer, allowing him to discover the hidden details that many wouldn’t see. Ivan Investigates…
Whilst collaborating with Swide for The Matt Silk Collection SS12 video, Luca Finotti gave us the chance to get him in front of the camera for an exclusive interview. Whether it’s talking about his love affair with the camera, his views on what ‘ugly is’ or how he keeps himself sane, the up and coming fashion director was as natural in front of the camera as he is behind it.
The Cannes Film Festival is the epitome of European high glamour on the French Riviera. Sun, surf and…suits. Swide catches three stars who put their best foot forward in Dolce&Gabbana. Gerard Butler, Mathew McConaughey and Zac Efron got suited up to face the onslaught of press photographers that infest every event at Cannes.
Kylie Minogue has had a very very good week indeed. Sparkling brighter than ever at the Cannes Film Festival premier of ‘Holy Motors’, wearing Dolce&Gabbana, and then causing explosive reaction throughout the internet when her new single and video ‘Timebomb’ was dropped today.
