/Top model Paloma Elsesser would love to be a poet, but there is the reality that she likes nice things. The next best lifestyle is to enjoy her life as a top model — which seems increasingly secure for the London-born daughter of an African-American mother and Chilean-Swiss father.
Elsesser grew up in Los Angeles, attending private school, before moving to New York and The New School to pursue psychology and literature. For money, Paloma waitressed at Jamaican restaurant Miss Lily’s.
Now a Brooklyn real-estate owner, Paloma, part of the IMG family, explains “. . . I’m not Malala. I’m just a [5.7” tall] model who’s a size 12” .

/Hailey Bieber is here to talk about Rhode, her new skin-care brand launching this fall. She’s not here to talk about her marriage or what she and husband Justin Bieber do — except to be a normal married couple — behind closed doors.
“It doesn’t feel worth it to me anymore when I try to have an open conversation with someone like you and then it gets taken out of context,” Bieber says to Lane Florsheim, who interviews her in WSJ Magazine’s Spring Fashion issue cover story, in Hailey Bieber’s Next Move.
“The media loves to take a tiny little blurb of something for clickbait. The media has always been a disgusting thing.”

/Gucci [Water] Tiger Collection Welcomes Lunar New Year on February 1, 2022 AOC Fashion
Luxury brands including Gucci, Nike, Prada and more are launching special collections to honor and celebrate the Lunar New Year arriving on February 1, 2022.
Gucci Tiger Collection
The Gucci Collection leaves no doubt that soon we will herald the Year of the Tiger, with an 80-piece collection. Creative director Alessandro Michele is giving new life to a 1960s archival design of a tiger print by Vittorio Accornero, the artist and illustrator behind the House’s signature Flora design.
Christopher Simmonds worked on art direction for the campaign. The Gucci Tiger collection can be viewed at Gucci.com. As with its recent The North Face collab, all packaging in this collection is eco-friendly.
Gucci Supports Lion’s Share Fund
In February 2020, Gucci joined The Lion’s Share Fund, a unique initiative raising much-needed funds to protect endangered species and their natural habitats.
A third-party animal welfare organization, @americanhumane, monitored the set on which animals were present in photographing Gucci’s Year of the Tiger campaign. The organization verified that no animals were harmed in creating this visually-exciting campaign
Chinese Zodiac Tiger Traits
The third animal in the 12-year cycle of the Chinese Zodiac and calendar, the Tiger is known as the king of all members of the animal kingdom in China. If you were born in 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, or 2010 — or are a baby in the making — you are a Tiger.
The Tiger represents strength, courage and the power to rid the world of evil. This year’s tiger specifically is called a Water Tiger, which inspires a strong sense of self-esteem and desire to acquire knowledge .
Gucci Tiger Pop-Ups
Retailer Holt Renfrew Yorkdale and Holt Renfrew Vancouver will host dedicated Pop-Up experiences in Canada that feature the Gucci Tiger collection, while stores in New York Wooster, Chicago Michigan Ave, Las Vegas Forum Shops, Santa Clara Valley Fair, and Manhasset boutiques will also feature Pop-In creativity to bring the Gucci Tiger into closets across North America.

/Jill Korlieve Soaks Up Italian Sun in Nervi for WSJ Magazine August 2021 AOC Fashion
Dutch model Jill Kortleve soaks up Italian sun in Nervi, a former fishing village now a seaside resort 12 miles northwest of Portofino. Brilliant hues and beach holiday prints from Burberry, Celine by Hedi Slimane, Chanel, Michael Kors, Missoni, Stella Mccartney, Tory Burch and more are as artistically intoxicating as the colorful houses dominating the Italian Riviera.
“Hemlines rise higher than the tides” writes Kevin Huynh about stylist Anastasia Barbieri choices for the fashion story shot by Angelo Pennetta [IG] for WSJ Magazine [link]. . So grab a sequined minidress from Saint Laurent by Anthony Vaccarello and board a flight to our beloved Italia. Yes, it does rain in Nervi, reminding smart women to grab a Balenciaga nylon tulip-printed raincoat for good measure.
