Models Anamaria Cioboata, Fiona James and Stephanie Cavalli needed a day off from all this Chanel insanity. A walk in the woods sounded nice but also a bit too quiet, given the velocity of their lives lately.

Cara Delevingne: “Gasping for air”
Edie Campbell: “Oh my god”

Anne is optimistic that finally we have found a word — ‘titan’ — that fashion and culture writers are using sparingly and only for those who deserve the title by accomplishment and not hype. Fantastic!
