Kill time at the airport
Posted Jan 8, 2009
The mere thought of security checks at the airport is enough for most of us to develop wrinkles - which is why Paris' Charles de Gaulle airport has long been ahead of time with their range of spa treatments that ensure airport security doesn't interfere with one's beauty.
The Be Relax spa chain offers a range of treatments at numerous spa points throughout the airport that include "Emergency Exit" - a dark circles shock treatment for men and women, "Anti Jet Lag" a thirty minute anti-fatigue ultra moisturizing shock treatment for men and women or the "Express Check In", a radiance booster shock treatment plus a range of twenty minute massages that include Be Feet, Be Up, Be Relax and Be Back available in Terminal 1 (satellites 1, 6 and 7), and in Terminals 2A, 2C, 2F1, 2F2, 2E and Terminal 3.
If these aren't enough to relieve the stress of security checks - check out the new D&G Time 2008 video for a different type of inspiration. Directed by Mario Testino, in Paris' Charles de Gaulle airport, the characters attempt to elude the airport security whilst stirring up the envy of passing passengers - we suggest however you may want to stick to the massage idea.
For stressed fashionistas and exhausted shoppers, the Be Relax spa hit Milan's Malpensa and Linate airports in December 2008. At Linate, a "Be Relax Spa" opened its doors offering massages, oxygen & aromatherapy, facial skin care, manicure and pedicures and waxing. Whilst at Malpensa airport a "Be Relax Classic" space will soon open offering seated massages, manicures, oxygen treatments & aromatherapy.

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.
