Opening the book, MOST WANTED (pg. 21) this issue focuses on two fragrant releases from Carven, Hublot’s collaborative and charity-benefitting watch with English band Depeche Mode, and Kris Van Assche’s futuristic frames by Linda Farrow Gallery. Next, in WHISTLING FOR THE WIND (pg. 40) photographer Markus Ziegler and stylist Adrian Manuel welcome nautically roused, ultra-light clothing that even on land makes waves, featuring Raf Simons, Gucci, E. Tautz, Prada, Dries Van Noten, and more.
