H&M Conscious Exclusive Delivers First Fall Collection With Liu Wen | Fall/Winter 2018 Lookbook

H&M Conscious Exclusive Delivers First Fall Collection With Liu Wen | Fall/Winter 2018 Lookbook

Supermodel Liu Wen shares the first Fall-Winter collection from H&M’s Conscious Exclusive collection. Launching on September 27 online, the romantic silhouettes are inspired by ancient tapestry and include materials made from recycled cashmere and velvet, coupled with 100% organic silk.

Cecilia Brännsten, H&M group environmental sustainability manager, explains that as consumers hug words like “transparency” and “traceability’, retailers and manufacturers are pressed to innovate sustainable materials and methods.

This season the Swedish high-street giant has introduced recycled cashmere created from leftover yarn that has been respun, and velvet made of recycled polyester partly sourced from used uniforms. “We have been developing this velvet for years to get a quality we're happy with,” Brännsten explains of the brand's closed loop production efforts on these heavier materials that have finally come to fruition in its first autumn/winter Conscious Exclusive line.

Lady Gaga Is The Walking Wounded, Lensed By Inez & Vinoodh For Vogue US October 2018

Lady Gaga Is The Walking Wounded, Lensed By Inez & Vinoodh For Vogue US October 2018

Lady Gaga covers the October 2018 issue of Vogue US, styled in sensual glam looks by Tonne Goodman.  Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin are behind the lens, with hair by Frederic Aspiras and makeup by Sarah Tanno.

On October 5, Warnes Bros. Pictures will release version #4 of the tragi-musical love story 'A Star Is Born', starring Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga. Vogue's Jonathan van Meter writes: 

The first version came out in 1937, starring Janet Gaynor and Fredric March, followed by Judy Garland and James Mason in 1954 and Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson in 1976. Gaga thinks of it less as a remake than as a “traveling legacy.” Directed by Cooper, in his debut, the film is remarkably assured, deeply engaging, and works on several levels: as a romance, a drama, a musical, and something else entirely, almost as if you’re watching something live, or documentary footage of a good old-fashioned rock-’n’-roll concert movie. 

“I wanted to tell a love story,” says Cooper, “and to me there’s no better way than through music. With music, it’s impossible to hide. Every fiber of your body becomes alive when you sing.” As Sean Penn said, after seeing the film more than once, “It’s the best, most important commercial film I’ve seen in so many years,” and he described the stars as “miracles.” Cooper and Gaga, and the film itself, are likely to be nominated for all manner of awards."

Sitting in Gaga's house in Malibu, Van Meter goes on and on and on about Cooper. LOL Wait up! He just noted that Gaga held her own with Cooper.  Miracle of miracles, apparently. The soundtrack will be released the same day as the movie, and because this is a Lady Gaga production, "she has had a big hand in it". Hmmm, wouldn't yah think? I mean the girl can do something right. She CAN sing and she knows how to make songs that appeal to zillions of people who adore her. But wait up, Cooper zooms back into view: "There were many writers and producers who worked on different songs, but the brain trust was Gaga and Cooper, working closely with the blues-oriented producer and songwriter Ben Rice and Lukas Nelson, who’s Willie’s son." Whew! At least Gaga came before Cooper in the Lady Gaga Production brain trust. 

Now for Gaga: she is a multi-paragraph, basket case: we know little about her new boyfriend Christian Carino -- first things first. Same paragraph we hear abut her being sexually assaulted as a teenager. I think we know that for about 20 years. Come on Jonathan. Give us some new and exciting insights about Lady Gaga. Throw her a meaty bone and let her talk. Enough of you; we want to hear from her. 

Okay, she makes an appearance in #MeToo, but scratch that. Does she have an opinion? Nope. We're on to her PSTD and mental health issues. Pain. The woman's got pain. Like we know all that, too, Jonathan. Women know about all these issues, one part of the life of an enormously talented woman. She is not defined exclusively by her pain. How about talent? How about Trump? How about resistance? Are their any accomplishments? Any wisdom learned along the way?

Nope. We're onto the fibromyalgia and extreme nerve pain caused by fibromyalgia. Amazingly, the walking basket case known as Lady Gaga somehow made it through the filming of this new movie with the real star Bradley Cooper.  How she made it to Venice for the film festival two weeks ago is a major miracle. I saw her strutting around in the new Celine collection from her buddy Hedi Slimane. Now I'm thinking that Bradley Cooler was carring her on his back, and they just cropped him out of the shots to save her reputation. 

Okay, to be reasonable here (which is difficult in reading this interview) Lady Gaga gets a nice almost last paragraph, while letting out a "mordant chuckle" before the Mister Softee truck sound enters HIS consciousness.

Ousted CBS CEO Les Moonves Told Woman Doctor 20 Yrs Ago He Can't Control Sexual Urges

“He said that he had a terrible problem, that he basically couldn’t control himself when alone with a woman.”

Reading these words by ousted CBS CEO Les Moonves -- written in an apologetic note to a UCLA woman doctor he attacked, after she was requested to handle the VIP client at a 7am meeting -- I find them just staggering.

This man has overseen the careers of how many women at CBS -- to say nothing of Charlie Rose? Moonves was ousted today without a severance package, over Ronan Farrow's new article in which 6 new women including knowledge about the doctor came forward. The women were furious that CBS seemed to not be responding to the first claims against Moonves.

The women were also totally disgusted that Les Moonves was turning truth against the #MeToo movement, arguing that the sex was all consensual. Yet the words written to the woman doctor had to roll around in his brain some days.

This week I learned that Moonves tried to destroy Janet Jacson over the NFL nip slip, while dishing no pain to her partner in the accident Justin Timberlake.

Tanzania's Selous Safari Company Recycled Their Taka Taka Long Ago With Minimal Footprint Policies

Tanzania's Selous Safari Company Recycled Their Taka Taka Long Ago With Minimal Footprint Policies

I've been on the hunt for bamboo tubes used in our GlamTribal jewelry and this gorgeous image from Tanzania's Selous Safari Company is causing me to have a eureka moment! I'm probably finding them to be so scarce because larger bamboo tubes are now being used as straws. 

One of the core values and main objectives of Selous Safari Company is its commitment to have minimal impact on the environment. 

Long before it was mainstream practice, SSC stopped using plastic bags, started using solar power, set out to recycle all their "taka taka" (Swahili word for garbage) and ceased using plastic bottles. Selous Safari Company also stopped using plastic straws… without a firm plan for their replacement.

A bit of creative meditation, most likely accompanied by a delicious cocktail or two on their magnificent beach, produced the answer: Bamboo straws! And NOT delivered by Amazon. REAL, AUTHENTIC bamboo straws. 

SSC's beach lodge, Ras Kutani, on the Swahili Coast has plenty of bamboo, and the creative minds went into high gear. Read their blog post for further instructions.  Here in America, GlamTribal will order our own bamboo straws, treat them with only eco-friendly varnish, perhaps even decoupage them. Who knows what ideas will be inspired by the bamboo straws created by Tanzania's Selous Safari Company!
