In the kitchen after the steamy shenanigans at the Stella McCartney after-party The Clique was drunk and tired but very happy.

DIY. Do it yourself. Do or die. That what where my mind was on the night before the Rad Hourani show.

ROISIN MURPHY Let us know!

The London scensters have been talking for a good year now and I had been cynical. "Roisin Murphy is IT!" They had been testifying but I didn't believe. Yeah the songs were fun to dance to and ...yeah.. she really had a way with a Gareth Pugh and all that was very cute to boot. But was she possibly legendary? I almost didn't make the show..what with a 730 am flight to the Bahamas the next morning but something said.."Get into that Margiela one-sie . Don't wear a T-shirt under it and go out and have some fun"

The big catch at A+C

Gossip is an art form in the twisted rues of this town ,

Christian from Basic shone in his debut for Rad SS 09

"To keep the tedium of casting interesting I usually make up a kind of movie in my mind to help sharpen the filter. Last season I played Aphex Twins "Logon Rock Witch" all session long in my head as my kind of dream soundtrack that all the witch girls were gliding to. This season its Grace Jones' "Walking In The Rain" to which I'm dreaming of an army of sleek, shiny, aerodynamic people all angular and machine-like, like cyborgs but deeply deeply individualized. Boys and girls...the same feeling with different complexions...shifting features....That's my fiction for Rad SS09."

TI : Sept 3 2008

Elite's leading light catwalking to Eddie Trump's US Open box

The best use of yellow and white striped awning since Giorgio Beverly Hills

TI wants to enormously thank Neal Hamil at Elite for turning us on to the very excellent Sunset Beach Hotel on Shelter Island. If you hate the Hamptons but need the escape (and boy was this a weekend that made escape necessary) the Sunset Beach is a brilliant reprieve. Created (and impeccably curated) by Andre Balazs, this laid back Long Island destination features only 20 guest rooms, all with sun decks and a stunning bay view, as well as an excellent restaraunt . A whip smart staff, an unpretentious, laid back vibe and the best use of a white and yellow striped awning since Giorgio's Beverly Hills, TI was turned...so to speak .
