WATCH OUT: CHOPARD X ELTON JOHN WATCH COLLABORATION.


This week’s watch feature has a double purpose..  

1. New stars have joined Sir Elton John’s fight to combat AIDS. They are the jewelled chronographs in Chopard’s “Elton John” collection, each one sparkling with rare natural coloured diamonds.

2. Proceeds from the sale of each timepiece go to support the “Elton John AIDS Foundation” as part of an overall program of support.

OBAMA HITS THE PARIS RUNWAY

Found this on New York Magazine’s website.

“When it was reported that Donatella Versace’s most recent men’s collection was inspired by Barack Obama, Donatella was quick to correct the press. Obama himself didn’t inspire her, but rather “the type of man Barack Obama represents.” However designers showing at Paris Fashion Week conveyed no such reserves about using their runway shows to blatantly support Barack. Sonia Rykiel’s spring 2009 collection included sweaters that read “I have a dream” and “Obama.” Jean-Charles de Castelbajac put Barack’s grinning face on a dress paired with gloves that read “yes” and “no” — probably his way of saying “rock the vote.” And at the end of her program notes, Stella McCartney wrote, “P.S. Vote Obama!!” None of this surprises us. What does, however, is that Barack didn’t permeate the collections in London, Milan, or New York in this way. Maybe designers in other parts of the world didn’t want to add fuel to the whole Obama-is-a-celebrity fire? Like embracing a First Lady who’s posed nude, leave it to the French to say, “Yes, we can!”
