PFW Style Snaps: We spotted Daphne Guinness, Olivier Zahm, and Jefferson Hack amidst all the cool kids outside Gareth Pugh
From the downtown sights of this latest batch of photos, it looks like the Lower East Side has hit Paris. Spotted outside the Gareth Pugh show yesterday: It boys in the making, and the heroin chic look making a comeback. Also spotted, Daphne Guinness in tightly wrapped tights, that we imagine were made by Pugh.

The Istanbul report: A weekend of cool with Courtney Love, Tilda Swinton, Kirsten Dunst, Haider Ackermann and more!
There’s something dangerous and sexy about Istanbul: the clash and dance between East and West, between hot new scene and ancient culture. It makes it the right place for culturati to collide and let loose in a way you’d never see at, say, a New York Fashion Week party. Hence: Istancool, which is a Liberatum Global festival (in association with Vakko, Istanbul ’74 and AnOther) in its second year, and how I spent my weekend.
Liberatum’s stated aim is “connecting Britain’s finest minds with the world”⎯in addition to Istanbul, they’ve done festivals in Rio, Moscow and Papua New Guinea. But it’s best understood as a travelling circus: the hyper-charming, 27-year-old Liberatum founder Pablo Ganguli plays ringleader, while fashion (and art, and culture) freaks tag along.
