POWER, or the ephemeral (funerals) juxtaposed with outward signs of wealth (“Arm Candy”)
FAME’s “Bonfire of the Vanities” at various fashion events
Cult of the BODY, featuring a boxing match, larger-than-life bodies in Brooklyn, and the toned bodies of dancers in South Central Los Angeles
FANTASIES, inspired by an ideal figure, beauty salons, and Kate Moss, the ultimate cover girl
The EXCLUSIVE, a collection that pays tribute to the artisans of luxury
The ILLICIT explores various underworlds
And a special section featuring exclusive advertisements commissioned by Atmosphere, Baccarat, Christian Lacroix, Guru, HSBC, Hermès, Kérastase, Lacoste, Hypnose by Lancôme, Lavazza, Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, Marithe & François Girbaud, Paul Smith, Pierre Hardy, Dodo by Pomellato, shu uemura, Trussardi, and Viktor & Rolf perfumes
