Megalomaniac?
Well…May be… The fact is that the designer is plotting to

influential than the likes of Chanel and Gucci within the next decade. Wow!

I say that in the most humble way, meaning that I've had every advantage that anyone could possibly have. I had enough money to self-finance. I had a well-known name. I had 20 years of experience working for very big companies with no fear of scale”, he told WWD.
Tom left his post as creative director at YSL to set up his own label in 2004.

Holmes says Kate Moss is her style icon. The 34-year-old actress bases her

"inspiring" taste in fashion.

Sam Mendes
won't direct the next Bond filmThe 'Skyfall'
director is too busy with his theatre commitments to helm the 24th chapter of
the Daniel Craig-fronted spy franchise and has regretfully decided to pass up
producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli's "generous" offer.
Blockbuster hit 'Skyfall' has passed the $1.1bn mark to become the
highest-grossing film ever , and 47-year-old director Sam was rumoured to be
returning for the next instalment after the praise he received for his fresh take
on the long-running franchise.
However, the filmmaker doesn't want to leave the Bond family for good and hopes to be involved in secret agent 007's adventures in the future.
Daniel Craig, Naomie Harris, Ben Whishaw and Ralph Fiennes will all reprise their roles in the action flick, with filming reportedly taking place early next year.

Gucci go eco
Gucci has created a handbag range using legally produced leather
from the Brazilian Amazon. The luxury fashion brand has teamed with Green
Carpet Challenge, co-founded by actor Colin Firth's wife Livia Firth, for the
collection of responsibly sourced bags featuring three styles - the hobo, the
top-handle tote and the New Jackie - which are already on sale in Gucci stores
and online.
The Gucci for the Green Carpet Challenge Handbag Collection all
bear a GCC brand mark as well as a 'passport' which documents the origins of
the bag, as well as allows the owner to trace where the materials came from.
The red wine-coloured bags are guaranteed to not cause
deforestation and Gucci has begun using cattle ranches which are certified by
the National Wildlife Federation and Rainforest Alliance.
Right on, Gucci! We
totally approve the idea!

it works well on anything with sleek lines and nice tailoring, like a miniskirt
or a sheath dress. It definitely has to be the focal point of the outfit, so
keep it cool avoiding other statement pieces.
