Hey - so you saw some of my day photos from yesterday at Stockholm Fashion Week, yeah? Yesterday evening then I found myself speeding through the outskirts of Stockholm in a taxi with a group of Swedish friends. We were heading for the Acne presentation in a small art-filled hotel that sat high abov...

Joe emails: Obama has named a friggen dinosaur to be middle east envoy. George Mitchell is older than John McCain and probably has one foot in the grave and another on a banana peel. He is part Arab, which gets him some street cred in the arab capitals, but what is of much more significance to those...

Walking around the Fashion District in midtown Manhattan today - a messy, cold, and rainy day - I noticed that most everyone was dressed for comfort and warmth. New York is the most fashionable city in the US by some distance…even so, many New Yorkers feel the need to give in to comfort dressi...

I spend very little time on this blog looking backwards - I try my best in fact to push things forward or to at least be of the moment. With an event as special as Paris Fashion Week however, I hope you won’t mind if we take a moment to look back. Besides, there were loads of photos from late ...

Paris Fashion Week is amazing - I shot these photos at Ungaro, Costume National, and Christian Lacroix. Later on, we headed over to the Elysee Montmartre for the Givenchy fete where 2manydjs 1:30am set turned the packed club into a total dance party. Late night it was back to home base - Le Baron - ...
