Sexuality in the City

Friday, December 26th, 2008

How do we at Glamwire celebrate the 2nd day of Christmas, the first day of Quanza, and the fifth day of Chanuka?…by buying an amazing antique casino table at a nearby shop, one that folds into its own incredible carry on bag, oh yeah, baby, and by relishing in our new scent, L’Occitane Eav Des Bavx, which we received from our incredible sister Margaret for Chrissy….astonishingly lovely mates!) and by making one last 08 nod to Harry H. Lunn Jr., the greatest photography dealer that ever lived and the publisher, with Robert Miller, of the X Collection by Robert Mapplethorpe…by returning to Part Four of Who Killed Male Sexuality by our favorite Friday afternoon correspondent Susan Craine Bakos. While we at Glamwire have always argued, vehemently, that Male Sexuality was killed by Don Schneider of Great Neck, New York in 1992….this story comes to a startlingly different conclusion. By clicking Continue Reading, you acknowledge that you are in possession of Key Man Insurance, and you have called a loved one to inform them that you intend, in fact, to proceed.

The conclusion of this series, soon to be a sensational novel, is now up here . Ciao for now.

Part One is still up on glamwire: http://www.glamwire.com/articles/2008/12/06/sexuality-in-the-city

Part Four answers the question: Who killed male sexuality (if indeed it is so dead)? The Babes of Babeland are leading the charge for female sexual empowerment. And it’s all about vibes–and a big black dick with a curve that hit’s the G spot–and the undeniable appeal of a cub for a Cougar.

PPR Sales Up 20% in Q1

Thursday, April 24th, 2008

PARIS ? Despite a ?challenging quarter? for Gucci, France?s PPR on Thursday said first-quarter sales rose 20 percent thanks to the addition of Puma and robust sales at Yves Saint Laurent and Bottega Veneta.
Gucci?s sales in the quarter advanced 2.4 percent at constant exchange rates as sales sputtered in more mature markets, like the United States and Europe. After the impact of negative currency exchange, Gucci?s sales dipped 3.3 percent to 513 million euros, or $769.5 million at average exchange.

?Action plans have already been implemented to enable the brand to regain a growth rate consistent with group objectives,? PPR said.

Overall, PPR said sales in the three months through March reached 4.91 billion euros, or $7.37 billion, slightly edging most analysts? estimations.

Sales grew 4 percent after the impact of currency exchange, reflecting the impact the high value of the euro against the dollar and yen is having on European luxury firms.

PPR?s overall luxury sales improved 9.6 percent at constant exchange ? 4 percent after currency exchange ? to 816 million euros, or $1.22 billion, led by rapid growth in Asia, excluding Japan, and China, where sales bounded 116 percent.

PPR?s stock was down over 1.4 percent to 83.20 euros, or $130.58, in mid-morning trading on the Paris Bourse.

One From The Vault: Billie Jean King in Gustavo Cadille, Fall ‘07

Carmen Marc Volvo Fall ‘08

Friday, February 15th, 2008

Carmen Marc Volvo’s satin 1920’s evening wear show was a tad boring, though a snip, quite a snip, elegant. Obvious decco 20s references and beautiful satins marked the collection, but to this reporter, not much else marked it. Though I wouldn’t complain if my date showed up wearing one of these ensembles (they carried kind of sombre austerity with their rich historic elegance, always nice at the Kinsdale Tavern or The Barking Dog on the Upper East Side, my haunts) as a show, and as a collection, it did not dazzle or inspire. — Miles Redfield, Reporting.

Special Note: We’d like to take this moment to acknowledge some of the folks and companies that we took note of in fashion this past season…some that we worked with…others we ‘d love to work with. As we head towards Spring we are keeping our eyes peeled for these great fashion stars, some already realized, some emerging:
