@mrcharlesjeffrey made me the sensational outfit for the @metmuseum@metcostumeinstitute Met Gala ... scroll to find out about how he showed me the amazing 16th century drawings of ancient Pict warriors who covered their bodies in drawings of snarling beasts and birds. These elements were taken and incorporated into an 1830s style suit. The savage shoes by @charlesjeffreyloverboy Makeup by the talented @nikohaagenson getting ready at @amyfinecollinsibdl And for the dinner I sat with the wonderful @themarcjacobs@voguemagazine
#CostumeArt an exhibition by the sublimely talented #AndrewBolton brings together an array of treasures from the @metmuseum collections - one more provocative, intriguing, and visceral than the next ... The new galleries - formerly the Great Hall shop - are high ceilinged and very much grander than the former (basement) Costume Institute. Now, costume arts finally have their place in the sun ...
#WilliamNicholson @pallanthousegallery one extraordinary image after another ... if you can get to the exhibition in #Chichester at the wonderful Pallant House please do - if not there is a wonderful catalogue ... we had lunch with the Director of Pallant House, the delightful @simonmartin_art

Vogue’s inimitable Hamish Bowles and I—both dear friends of the legendary André Leon Talley—recently shared the splendor of “Style is Forever” at SCAD FASH in Atlanta. We reminisced, we reveled, we remembered the wonder and wit of André. Every garment, jewel, and impeccably curated flourish tells the story of a life lived in full—a life André lovingly bequeathed to SCAD in spirit and in style.
Bask in his brilliance! “Style is Forever” is on view at SCAD FASH through March 1. 💖

Valentino Garavani ~ 11th May 1932 - 19th January 2026 A long life enriched by the beauty that he created - in Rome, at the Palazzo Mignanelli I went to explore his fantastic albums of sketches, some of the dresses I have in my collection (one or two of them are here) - and by his friends, and by his partner Giancarlo Giammetti @giancarlogiammetti who was pivotal in all things...I send him all my love. That picture shows them as young lovers, sharing all the joy, and sense of adventure, and beauty in the world, wondering where it will all lead them. You conquered the world.
