DINING WITH MEDUSA
The Versace x Rosenthal dining collections combine rich heritage with sumptuous
design, shown explicitly with the lavish and timeless I love Baroque dinnerware line.
As we would expect from Versace, every piece is by no means understated with
neoclassical symbols in Versace’s signature black, gold and white tones. A collection
that is sure to get your dinner guests talking (behind your back).

SLEEPING MOSS, WAKING TREES
Much-loved skin and beauty brand Aēsop has
launched a new fragrance, featuring notes of cypress,
thyme, vetiver, and frankincense. Hwyl Eau De
Parfum, which takes its name from the Welsh term
for “a stirring feeling of emotion”, promises to evoke
earthy sensuality and longevity with its warm,
woody aroma.
THE RICHEST MAN IN THE
WORLD... BRIEFLY
Amancio Ortega, co-founder of Spanish fashion
retailing giant Inditex (think Zara, Massimo Dutti
and Bershka), might not be as well-known as Bill
Gates, but he has knocked Gates of his No 1 spot
as the richest person in the world four times, most
recently when he hit the USD$85 billion mark.
Two days later, Gates had exceeded the $1 billion
gap. At 81, Ortega shops at the same coffee shop
every day, never graduated from high school, and
once went 25 years without a holiday.
