1 SENSUAL UNDERWEAR
Looking for some cool new underwear? Triumph
International Japan has developed the "Super
Cool Bra." They are using a gel material in the cup portion
that you keep in the freezer so you can enjoy a cool bra on
a hot day. Not just “touch,” they have also created a "hear-
ing" bra and a "smell" bra by decorating them with wind
chimes and mint leaves and a "visual" bra in the shape of a
fishbowl. Unfortunately, they are not for sale. But I want
to try the “touch” one, to help me survive the hot summer!
2 RELEASE OF LOUIS VUITTON'S
FIRST IPAD APPLICATION
T h i s a p p li c a t i o n i s b a s e d o n t h e b o o k "10 0
legen da r y tr unk s - L o uis Vuit to n". We have all b e en
fascinated with Louis Vuitton's lug gage for as long as
we can remember. The content is more than a trunkful
of rare trunks, episodes, videos and documents, invit-
ing readers on a great journey. Not to be missed!
3 VIDAL SASSOON MEMORIAL
Radical world famous hair stylist and successful
businessman Vidal Sassoon died on May 9, 2012,
at the age of 84. He was the innovator of the Sassoon cut,
and was lauded all over the world for generating reliable
technology. A movie about his life "Vidal Sassoon" was
released on May 26. It shows all the influence he's had in
the world of fashion and culture up to the present day and
in the future.
4 SCHIAPARELLI AND PRADA:
IMPOSSIBLE CONVERSATIONS
An exhibition on the theme of “Elsa Schiapa-
relli and Miuccia Prada" is being held at the Metropolitan
Museum of Art's Costume Institute in New York. Repre-
sentative works from each artist are on display so visitors
can compare and contrast. That's not all! There is also an
imaginary conversation between the two women, direct-
ed by Australian director Baz Luhrmann. The exhibition
runs until August 19th, so don't drag your feet.
5 NEW MODELS FOR CHANEL N°5
Bra d Pit t was ann o un ce d as th e n ew fa ce of
Chanel "N°5". He is the first man to ever be on one
of their billboard adverts. As it is perhaps the most famous
perfume in the world, expectations are high. As for the
exact substance of the advert, we can't wait to find out!
6 SWATCH'S NEW DESIGNS
Swatch's new per fec t-for-summer collec tion,
"Chrono Plastic," will be here in late June. This
time, they are in a renewed design mode with a feel of
high fashion about it. Since the collection is available in
10 colours, it should be easy to find one to fit your tastes.
7 CINDERELLA SHOES
Disney and famous shoe brand Christian Loubou-
tin are collaborating! They are creating the world
of Cinderella that your Editor dreamed of as a child. More-
over, Louboutin fascinates every woman in the world with
feet! More information will be announced in July 2012.
8 MET GALA 2012
This year's Met Gala was, as usual, held at the
Metropolitan Museum of Ar t in New York on
May 7th . It is known as New York's Academy Awards
and celebrities from all over the world attended, with
l u x u r i o u s d r e s s e s o f c o u r s e . T h i s y e a r ' s c e l e b r i t y
trends were white dresses and see-through items. Why
don't you give it a try!

We have seen the term Hi-Lo in many fashion magazines
and websites throughout the world and it simply means
a mixture of expensive and cheap, chic and casual styles
(think: icon Kate Moss).
It’s easy to become an expert at this style today. Just
wear your sophisticated pieces mixed with others from
outlets, thrift stores or even fast fashion.
Being more ‘Hi-Lo’ encourages us to be more free: it
d em o n s trate s o riginalit y a n d go o d s en s e . G et tin g
dressed in only an expensive brand, from head-to-toe,
is 'super over'! Cheap is chic! We may be beautiful,
elegant and with total exclusivity without being dressed
in only luxury clothes or holding that “it” bag that even
has a waiting list. The important thing is to merge new
trends with other elements that show our personality
and creates our own style.
Want some tips for a visual Hi-Lo?
Enjoy the fact that fashion is more democratic than ever
and mix all the accessories and clothes however, expen-
sive or cheap, and show your style in the fashion world.

S he was always the outsider. She was ineptly tall
and her face was homely at best. Her silence was
the most awkward part of her. Anyone who attempt-
ed to befriend her failed miserably. Eventually, people
just stopped noticing her. That is when she became
the Watcher. She observed lives around her unfold-
ing; cautionary tales of love mixed with heroic tales
of moral aptitude. When she wasn’t observing life,
she was reading about it. She was quite content with
blending into the background of her own mediocrity,
until the man that talks to the trees approached her.
“ Watcher girl , let me tell your for tune,” he said with
sly intentions.
She responded, as always, with silence.
“ O h y e s , t h a t ’s r i g h t , t h e W a t c h e r g i r l s p e a k s n o
words. No matter, I will keep your for tune and whis-
per it to the trees.”
Deafening silence.
T h e m a n t h a t t a lk s to t h e t re e s w a lke d ove r to t h e
l i m b t h a t h u n g o v e r h e r h e a d a n d w h i s p e r e d , “t h e
Watch er girl will n ever b e b ea utif ul . T h e b ea utif ul
will always be watched.”
Disb elief overc am e h er. H ow dare h e make such an
inauspicious for tune? Homely, yes, but never beau-
t i f u l ; t h i s w a s a f a t e s h e w a s n o t w i l l i n g t o w a t c h
unfold. She poured over her books to find the antith-
esis to her eternal misfortunate. Then it came to her,
as quickly as th e f lit ting of th e wing s of a b ut ter fly,
the rare blue butterfly.

w h i c h s h e w o r e a r o u n d h e r e y e s . T h e E m p r e s s ’
beaut y was legendar y. Being the Watcher, she knew
exactly where to find blue butterfly.
The metamorphosis was painless and as she emerged
from her cocoon, she knew immediately that she was
beautiful. She went straight to the man that talks to
the trees , to break her silence with gloating . In her
f lut terin g , sh e realize d s o m ethin g was w ro n g . H er
legs were as thin needles, painful to walk. When she
reached to open the door, the strain was back breaking.
Not only was she as beautiful as the rare blue butter-
fly, she was as delicate; the slightest wind, the gentlest
touch would result in her untimely demise.
She was imprisoned by the fragility of her precarious
beauty; always to be watched, never again the Watcher.

Ever changing, fluid and fresh – defines Vanessa
Powell’s signature photographic style.
Ever the observant photographer, Powell is a lover of
basics, focusing on light, shadow and line. Raised in
Alaska and more than accustomed to the short-lived
days of sunlight, she embraces the quick changing lights
of the Alaskan sky. Acknowledging it as friend rather
than foe and with the keenest of eyes, Powell seeks out
the deepest of darks and the brightest of lights.
With a long-standing love for literature and art, writ-
ers such as Hans Chris tian A n dersen , T h e B roth ers
Grimm and Edgar Allan Poe, not to mention a proflu-
ent string of p oet s , have continually fed inspiration
t o P o w e l l ’s v i s i o n . T h e y “h a v e a d d e d t o m y v i s u a l
re p e r to ire a n d s h a p e d my w ay o f s e e in g t h e w o r l d
through my lens,” says Powell.
H er inh erent abilit y to create compatible comp osi-
tions makes her photographs what they are: ethereal,
bathed in soft light and echoing in poetic resonance.
Using the outdoors as an ar tistic palette to compose
her photographs, Powell uses the oddities of nature to
build stories on. “I believe strongly in the versatility of
natural settings.”
I n h e r l a t e s t s h o o t P a i n t e d D e s e r t , e a r t h y t o n e s
are use d as a delic ate ba ckdrop, enabling Powell to
u ti l is e n at u r a l s u r ro u n din g s to h e r l ik in g , c re atin g
an array of photographic st yles. Understated imag-
e s w ith m ute d colo ur s p o ss e ss a n exq uisite q ualit y
that merge the figure and nature, whilst contrasting
accents of bold colours and a variety of raw textures
b rin g t h e c a nva s to l i f e , a d din g to t h e a ll u re of t h e
setting and the garments themselves.
Ev e n t h e f i l t e r i n g l i g h t o f a d a y ’s s u n s e t c a n a d d
t h a t e x t r a m a g i c a l q ua li t y to s o m e t h in g s o sim p l e .
Pe rp etuall y intrig u e d by th e va riet y of dim e n sio n s
that make up photography, Powell is driven to bring
o ut th e b e s t in h er ima ge s , “it make s m e s e e in n ew
ways every time I pick up my camera.”
Photography like any ar t is a continued craf t , Powell
remains close to her root s and true to her hear t and
v isio n , ex p re ssin g “th e re a re few thin g s in my li fe I
value more than f inding new ways to see.” And with
t h i s d e t e r m i n a t i o n i n s i g h t , w e c a n e x p e c t t o s e e
much more of this promising photographer.

fave Bet t y Sugar, put on a standout show with punt-
ers lining up outside, hoping to get any stray seat not
already snapped up.
From En Vie’s front-row VIP seat, we tried not to gloat
as we s wo oned at the sleek , chic , p er fec tly tailored
lady-like pieces, imagining ourselves directing a board
meeting, going of f to a cocktail party or on the arm of
Prince Charming arriving at a ball.
Betty Tran’s designs epitomise the image of the “new

an d elegant - her s t yle is un ders tated , timeless an d
cla s sic . B et t y Tra n tr ul y is f o r th e wo ma n w h o ha s
transformed into a lady with class and sophistication,
not unlike the cool, calm and collected Betty, who just
moments before the show told us to “relax and enjoy!”
Among the international designers who jetted in were
t h e o u t l a n d i s h P h i l i p p i n e s - b o r n a n d D u b a i - b a s e d
Furne One, award-winning Malaysian designer Melin-
da L o oi , th e s t ylish Peridot L on don an d In don e sian
fashion guru Ali Charisma.
Furne One, designer and owner of brand Amato Haute
Couture, has never been in higher demand. Celebrated
for his natural ability to craft extravagant and artistic
designs , he has quickly made his way up the fashion
ladder and is regarded as one of the most hotly antici-
pated designers on the global fashion stage. He has
created outfits for sex y divas Katy Perr y, Lady Gaga,
B eyo n c e , S h a k ir a , J e n n i f e r L o p e z a n d N i c k i M in a j ,
whose names alone show that he is a star. Furne One
describ e d his collec tion as “e dg y, architec tural an d
feminine.” This writer wishes she had AUD$100,000+
to buy one of his extraordinary, coveted pieces!

on a “rich legac y of f ine British tailoring , combining

I LOVE THOSE DAYS WHEN THERE IS NOTH-ING TO DO, JUST LYING ON WHITE SHEETS.
THE PHONE IS OFF A ND JUS T SOME SOFT MUSIC PLAYS FROM THE OTHER ROOM.
I WILL STAY IN BED ALL DAY!I N E E D E D T H I S — A S U N D AY WITH NOTHING TO DO.
A s a child, I knew to laugh and frolic in the
endless sea of tall grass, turned golden
by the rays of the sun. As I grew older, my
laughter and frolicking continued with my
lover by my side. Together we roamed in the
endless sea of tall grass, turned golden by the
rays of the sun.
O n e d a y, h e t u r n e d h i s f a c e t o m i n e a n d
began gently kissing my forehead. Bet ween
th e s of t kiss e s that we re ma kin g th eir way

thunder and lightening shook the trembling
ear th. Despite the darkness, the memor y of
his professed love continued to burn bright
and warm my soul.
Until out of the dark horizon came his faith-
ful horse, with my triumphant lover.

LIVING IN A
MADE UP UNIVERSE
When we talk about ‘fashion’, it’s some-
time really important to understand
what we mean by that term. To get a greater
un d e r s tan din g we have to lo o k clo s ely at
the word. Perhaps we have used it so often
that we have become totally used to it and
its REAL meaning has been long forgotten.
Think about ‘makeup’. Makeup is ‘making up’;
it is creating something else, something new.
You are making something up!
No matter how natural and subtle our make-
up is, no matter how little we add or change,
h i g h l i g h t o r c o v e r u p , i t i s c r e a t i n g s o m e -
thing fake and attempting to fool the people
around you. Of course, that is not a bad thing!
Yo u a r e m a k i n g . Yo u a r e c r e a t i n g ; y o u a r e
changing the world, even in a ver y personal,
small way. You are deciding how you want to
a p p ea r a n d w hat yo u wa nt oth e r p e o p le to
see when they look at you:changing the world
according to your whims.
L a n N g u y e n k n o w s t h i s . N o t f o r h e r t h e
s ub tl e , inv isib l e n at u r a l s t y l e of G is e ll e o r
Elle. She lets the world know that the wearer
is in control. Whatever the shoot needs she's
n ot afraid to go that ex tra s tep b eyon d th e
n o r m a n d i n t o t h e w o r l d o f “ w h a t i f ? ” T h e
wo rl d of f a nt as y collid e s w ith th e wo rl d of
fashion and greatness is born . The ordinar y
and the everyday are drowned in gemstones,
fake hair and sharp outlines like a pen draw-
ing, exactly everything that you don't expect
t o f i n d o n a f a c e . L a n ' s m a k e u p d o e s n ' t
jus t rearrange or a djus t th e sam e pieces: it
creates a whole new set of rules!
W h e r e L a n s h i n e s i s t h a t p o i n t w h e r e t h e
style takes over and the whole world is made
u p . N o t j u s t s m o o t h in g ove r, a c c e n t u a t in g
and creating a face, she creates the charac-
ter, the personality, the whole histor y of the
i n d i v i d u a l 's u n i v e r s e . Fr o m o u te r s p a c e to
the inner-cit y, there is no limit or place that
her range doesn't ex tend to. Whether she is
deh umanisin g an droids in th e f ar f uture o r
bringing fantastic golden Klimt paintings to
life, her skill and technical creativity extend
to every situation.
When you look into the essence of her work
a n d h e r v a r i e d s t y l e , t h e t h i n g t h a t r e a l l y
s t rike s yo u is h e r c o m m it m e n t to o ri g in a l -

stands that makeup is making up something

HAIR RAISING
Christina Kreital and Rikki Sandberg take a
look at hair and they don't see bobs, perms
or braids; they see possibilities. Monoliths rise

big-budget science fiction movie.

elegance like any artisan tailored piece, especially
one that sticks up a meter into the sk y. Cat walk

into objects with no practical function; objects of
pure beauty, only existing to have an extreme effect
on our senses.
