As I exit the extraordinarily plush Hotel de Rome in Berlin — I’ve just finished up interviewing a Very Important Celebrity — I overhear a hotel attendant remark that the weather outside is, “Just a friendly Berlin rain, to let you know you’re still in Germany.” Indeed, the sky is a particularly brooding shade of […]

Staunch fans of fashion photography view Paolo Roversi as a one-man revolution. One of the early adopters of the Polaroid, the Italian-born, Paris-based photographer saw the potential in the camera in the ’70s, years before many of his contemporaries did. Using the Polaroid’s filter and frame to accentuate fashion’s most immediate and delicate moments, Roversi’s style of shooting spawned a legion of admirers, including Carine Roitfeld and the late Herb Ritts. After working under Harper’s Bazaar lensman Laurence Sackman during his salad days, Roversi developed his own POV and began to shoot solo for Elle and Dépêche Mode. His work created such a domino effect in fashion photography that his style became the new industry standard in the ’80s and ’90s. Scrolling through paoloroversi.com offers a taste of his influential commercial campaigns for the houses of Giorgio Armani and Romeo Gigli, as well as his contributions to Paris, British and Italian editions of Vogue.

We’ve feared the permanent death of couture for quite some time now. Since being eschewed for the faster world of ready-to-wear in the ’70s, the art form seems to be shrinking in significance ever so slightly year after year. So it’s exciting to see new talent taking an interest in the techniques of old master couturiers. Take Dawid Tomaszewski, the Berlin-based designer whose decadent pieces display timeless elegance and attention to detail, establishing a “new couture.”
