I'm pretty into the J.W Anderson A/W 12 campaign with its mop topped, zombie-eyed dandy-boy....

Dire Straights: Soooo Smooooth....
Emmett and I have been embracing the smooth tunes of Dire Straights of late. Apparently Mark Knopfler found inspiration for the lyrics of 'Money for Nothing' in the outraged rantings of a hard-ware store clerk....
"See the little faggot with the earring and the make-up
Yeah buddy that's his own hair
That little faggot got his own jet airplane
That little faggot he's millionaire"

Josephine Baker- totally banannas...
Throughout her life, Baker drew on her personal experiences to shape her performances. In turn, she transformed her everyday environments into stage sets where exciting dramas unfurled.
Overcoming the limitations imposed by her gender and the color of her skin, she became one of the world's most versatile entertainers, performing on stage, screen and recordings.
Josephine lived her life passionately, having four husbands and driving men to such passion that one killed himself at her feet.
Josephine was unable to conceive but adopted orphans from every country she toured - she hoped to create a 'rainbow tribe' of all cultures, races and religions. When she died in 1975 twenty thousand people attended her funeral in Paris.
