Model Pau Bertolini is styled by Sophie Pera in the finest luxury labels for ‘Meet Me in Monte Carlo’. Tatler’s core message focuses on new money acquisitions from sports cars to superyachts — and a fashion wardrobe worthy of traveling in grandeur.

Yves Saint Laurent creative director Anthony Vaccarello’s Pre-Fall 2024 collection continued his pursuit of edgy eroticism and lingerie dressing for the Parisian house.

Supermodel, supermom, superactivist Karlie Kloss is styled by Gro Curtis in ‘Force of Nature’, a modern woman fashion story lensed by Emma Summerton [IG] for V Magazine Fall 2024 preview. / Makeup by Romy Soleimani; hair by Bob Recine
In a bit of brilliant marketing, in AOC’s opinion, Karlie is wearing Loro Piana ‘Into the Wild’ collection— with swagger. The brand positioning is perfect for Loro Piana because of Karlie’s long list of accomplishments.
Karlie Kloss’ To Do List
The list includes Kode with Klossy, devoted to hands on tech camps for girls across America; and more recently, Gateway Coalition, focused on reproductive care for American women under assault with the overturn of Roe. In short order Gateway has directed more than $3 million in donations to abortion clinics in the Midwest.
Actor Emma Corrin covers the August 2024 issue of S Moda El Pais, lensed by Pablo Sáez [IG] in ‘Tiempo De Antihéroes’.
“Boys are idiots…” Corrin’s villianous character says in the film. Like the non-binary Corrin, Cassandra Nova’s shaved head and superpowers dramatize the actor’s own desire “to explore, change, and not be pigeonholed.”
Director Shawn Levy seeks to render Cassandra as an anti-villain, a charming and nice human who suddenly ups and kills someone. The character is only evil some of the time — a frequent signature in Marvel’s films.
Rising model Mary Ukech is styled by Stella Greenspan in ‘Free Form’ fashion looks shapes, patterns and textures from Bottega Veneta, Chanel, Dior, Prada and more. Photographer Lucie Rox [IG] captures Ukech for the June 2023 issue of Harper’s Bazaar US./ Hair by Yann Turchi; makeup by Aurore Gibrien
