Predictable? Moi?

Article Abstract:

The fashion collections for autumn and winter 1999 displayed in Paris, France, show strong emphasis on glamour, with much use being made of sequins, feathers, fur and embroidery. Paco Rabanne made extensive use of his signature gleaming metal discs, and also showed chainmail mini dresses. Donatella Versace showed skintight, studded trousers, jackets and catsuits, along with long evening dresses embellished with metal. Alexander McQueen showed his collection on fibreglass models that rose up from beneath the catwalk.

When success is a routine matter

Article Abstract:

Tom Phillips has lived in Peckham, south London, England for 55 years. He lives by a strict routine. He is famous for his translation and illustration of Dante's 'Inferno.' He is also a portrait artist and has painted Iris Murdoch and Samuel Beckett. His music was more renowned than his painting in the 1960's. Phillips attended Oxford to read Anglo-Saxon and English literature and then went to Camberwell School of Art. He has a photographic project recording the same spots of Camberwell every year for 20 years.
