‘Radical Grace’ Tells Stories Of 3 Defiant American Nuns Under The Vatican Gun

This film comes at a major crossroads in the Catholic Church, and the nuns are everything that’s right with the institution. They stand with the marginalized, and won’t be bullied by the hierarchy. I feel a deep connection to the women featured in ‘Radical Grace’. ~ Susan Sarandon, ‘Radical Grace’ Executive Producer

Alber Elbaz At London Vogue’s April 28 Festival

Smart Sensuality designer — and creative director of Lanvin — Alber Elbaz hopes to convince the public that fashion designers aren’t really kingpins, when he talks at the London’s second Vogue Festival on April 28, organized by British Vogue editor Alexandra Shulman in association with Vertu. 

Tell that to Karl Lagerfeld, my dear designer and true lover of women!

“Maybe they think that a designer is living a very glamorous life and they start their day not with coffee, but Champagne,” he said. “Trust me, it’s coffee. The designers, photographers and models that I work with, they are hard-working people who devote their lives to fashion. They’re kind of like nuns of fashion.”

Albers continued in a recent interview with London’s The Independent:

“Everybody thinks that because it’s luxury it should be very intimidating; you go into the store and it should look like a pharmacy,” he told The Independent. “But guess what? We’re not buying Tylenol! We’re buying a red bag, a diamond shoe and a printed dress, so I think that we should have a little lightness and be a little less strict about everything. If you come to a pharmacy and everything is arranged, then you don’t want to touch it. I don’t want people to be intimidated.”

What a fresh voice in a muddle of frequently self-absorbed people! 

Tom Craig’s Louis Vuitton Photography Exhibit
