This is a picture of my grandmother taken in 1956 on her honeymoon in Cairns. I think the whole shot is fantastic, the old snorkel, bathers and flippers – it simply captures her personality; colourful and slightly wild. It was taken on what would be the first of many exotic trips in which my grandfather would force my grandmother to experience all there was to experience

Recently, when we were in Australia we spent Garance’s birthday at a really great resort. The rooms, the spa, and the food were all wonderful, but all that interested me was mountain biking around the resort’s grounds. When we told our Australian friends we were gong to the “outback” for the weekend, they laughed when we told them that it was Wolgan Valley and said that the REAL outback was another hour away

I don´t know her, I just now that this picture has taken in my favourite hotel in Majorca, the Formentor. It was first opened in 1929, and about five years later this pic was taken. I find it most inspiring, not only because of her outfit, but because of the shape her body draws against the background

Sartorialist note – notice the button placement on his DB jacket We don’t know much about the gentleman on this picture, despite the fact that he always wore something in his breast pocket. The photo reads something in the back in a mix of french for the title “Le Leme “(North of France, near Paris), and Italian for month “Aprile”

This is a photo of my Great-uncle Frank’s former girlfriend taken in the early 1930s on my Great grandfather’s ranch in Sun Valley, CA. I “borrowed” this photo from my Grandpa about 5 years ago so I could take it to my hair stylist for inspiration for a new haircut.

How did this cellphone picture end up as story in Italian Vogue Pelle ? Giovanna Battaglia (Fashion Director of Vogue Pelle and Sartorialist Super-All-Star) took this shot of Garance with her cellphone, while Garance was shooting her, and I was in the background shooting both of them….is that clear?
