Dear Shaded Viewers,

The French underground artist Fafi will make a special appearance today at Colette to launch her Fafi for LeSportsac collection at Colette.

Fafi began her career as a graffiti artist and later evolved, developing clothing, jewelry, books and more, all embodying her signature aesthetic and stylish designs. She became a household name among the fashion elite soon after she began selling her illustrated designs at colette. Her playful designs exemplify young femininity while attracting a sophisticated and trendy audience.

People have been telling me all month that I had a little photo in Nov. Italian Vogue so after Colette, I walked over to W H Smith. What I really love, aside from Ali Mahdavi looking more elegant than words is the fact that there is also an image of Frank Gehry on the same page. I must admit that I am still pretty much in awe that You Wear it Well screened at the Guggenheim Bilbao, the amazing museum designed by Mr. Gehry.

Later, Diane
