Please introduce yourself to our readers.
I am Pegah Pourmand, an Influencer, Stylist and Designer based in London UK Founder (LA PEARLIN By Pegah), Revolve Brand ambassador.
Tell us about your education.
I have studied Business psychology in Tehran Iran, fashion and Styling from Conde Nast (vogue) in London.
When and how did you develop the love for fashion and modeling?
I have always had passion for fashion and beauty ,art and design since I was teenager I was always loved watching Fashion TV, Imagining putting outfits together back then design few pieces for myself. fashion TV used to inspire me so much, always impressed by fashion world how phenomenal this world is, full of mind blowing artworks and people that create masterpieces.
Why and when did you move to Kuala Lumpur Malaysia and how was the experience working there? I’ve moved in early 2011 after my graduation, I thought it’s a good idea to start my journey with moving to a country with very different culture to discover more of the world and was very much looking forward to those new unique experiences in life ,that I’m so glad I made such decision which taking risks and got me where I am today.
You later moved to Singapore, how different was it from Malaysia?
Singapore is more ‘Chinese centric’ as opposed to Malaysia which has a more ‘Malay centric’. All a matter of the difference in population between the 2 countries and the culture. Singapore in many ways is more advanced than Malaysia a safe country to live in but also ranked as the most expensive city and as of that it tends to be a bit more stressed and a lot less laid back than Malaysia. Singapore's fashion is regarded by many global brands as an upcoming retail market for luxury brands. Singapore is a $4.1 billion luxury market, weighted towards watches and jewellery and has been the hub of renowned global brands . In general Singapore is one of the most sophisticated luxury markets in the world in terms of clientele and in terms of luxury knowledge – especially watches and jewellery – but also arts and eccentric architecture and design. Talking about it I’d really love to visit again hopefully after pandemic and get lost in Orchard Road which is the most famous spot for best shopping in Singapore and of course marina bay sand which has a breathtaking view.
And how was the experience working with GEM Group in Istanbul? Media careers appear to be full of glamour and prestige from the outside looking in, that revolves around being involved in so many different range and section of work Without a doubt, one of the most competitive industries and be stressful and involves long working hours But was absolutely amazing experience for me to work in production, post production Casting and to run a Channel also every details about it was really good experience.
How did you develop your role as the creative, content creator Influencer in London? March, March,2021 2020
Working in a fashion lifestyle magazine in Malaysia Singapore first as a model, the fashion consultant later was my path to create contents for myself for my media for my audience later in London having all time so much love for fashion, I passed so many coursed with Conde Nast (Vogue) in styling and Fashion, learnt so much about the differences between style and fashion in the speed of change, also different Editors and photographers point of view, in addition to study and develop my knowledge in all areas of fashion I started creating content for myself then for brands and businesses and their campaigns, It was a great opportunity to work with PR’s, agencies and leading players in the industry I have met so many like minded people and influencers so far which is always great in socialising’s big part of this job that I like most as you always learn new things and meet new people.
How living and working in different countries has influenced you?
For the love to be on the go, I’ve been always looking for the next adventure, And As I said I always wanted to experience different places and culture. Moving abroad is a major life event for anyone who is brave enough–and lucky enough– to take the leap. starting over in a new country is one of the most terrifying yet exhilarating adventures ever. while being an expat is really exciting, fun, and eventful, it can also be really challenging, From fitting in the society, making friends to figuring out everything in new place Living in a new country is an educational experience like no others, where every day brings new discoveries: food, culture, people, places Moving and living in different countries not only sought me a huge amount about a different countries, but a huge amount about myself that I don’t change this experience with anything else in The world.
How did you feel been spotted as best dressed by Getty Images during London Fashion week?
Really thrilled, normally people get capture during fashion weeks but as best dressed was really feeling good. I thought it’s fun to wear some colours, matched this Versace leggings with blazer and belt bag, Getty images captured me on the way to the shows and spotted me as best dressed.
What are you currently doing?
I’m working on my dream project, designing my own clothing/fashion line named LA PEARLIN (By Pegah) to launch in March 21 since 2016 started designing millinery veil beret hats, everything was going perfect but busy with other stuff in life for a while, decided be back at it again with more experience and fashion knowledge, in 2019 I've been planning to have my own brand so Now I find it is the right time and really excited to launch it.
What are your future plans?
I do have goals, target, business plan and strategy for my future But one lesson from pandemic through last year was there are times you plan a lot but non can go forward ,unexpected things always might stop that, you might not have so much control over it ,like the world unexpectedly is on hold. All I can think at the moment is to pray for everyone and the world to get out of this pandemic as soon as possible hopefully and wishing just health to people around the world so all businesses could return back to work safely and the economy can go strong gain.
17
What has been your proudest moment so far? My Brand (LA PEARLIN By Pegah).
How did or is the pandemic affecting you?
Of Course the outbreak of Corona virus was stressful for me like many other people! I am still stressed and worry about my family and friends, My social life and business have been effected. As I said above that the most important part of my job is my socialising and face-to-face communications that has been effected.
What lesson(s) have you learnt from the pandemic?
18
I've learnt a lot, first I transform my social life to domestic life, I’ve had enough time to focus on myself and my mental health, creating more life style content at home with my hobby, we even had more time to work out on our relationship and help each other in different part of our businesses, In addition to work on our body health we are more often going for jogging and long walks and enjoy the nature around us that we used to be so busy to attach to the nature and appreciate our body and mental health. So tried to use the most out of my time in lockdown and live everyday better than I used to before this pandemic and littlest thing in life ,I’m sure I’m more sympathetic now with my family and friends and virtual friends/followers, I’ve so engaged and more real with them since the pandemic. So it’s been best time to self-care mind, body and soul ,also think about how much we have done for ourselves and still there’s a time to do things we always wanted to do that we had no time to focus on it before pandemic. And for me is launching my brand (LA PEARLIN by Pegah).
workout schedule gyms are closed so I still do some bands resistance, pilates and every possible workout at home. I’ll try to eat balanced, not following any specific regime or diet, just as less artificial sugar as possible ,but more fruits and natural sugar in it More green and veggies and proteins also have many cheating days which is kind of fun these days and it is also really cool to enjoy once in a while. For beauty and skincare Drinking Plenty of Water and Staying hydrated, taking vitamins, exfoliating or gentle cleanser and rinsing my face before and after makeup plus using day and night masks and good serums and moisturiser, trying to keeping it fresh healthy and glowy and protect from the sun and pollution. Regardless of our age and skin type, our skin needs moisture to look and feel healthy. That's why a moisturiser should be in our daily beauty routine.
How would you describe your personal fashion style?
I believe originality is key, I like bold and sometimes striking styles that make a statement but also love feminine details, From time to time considering mood and occasion, love sophisticated and timeless chic ,every once in a while soft and girly, occasionally cool, Casual and easy, above all contemporary and trendy So prefer to fill my wardrobe with versatile practical investment pieces.
Your message for us at CiiN magazine. Thanks so much for interviewing me. Stay amazing!
What are your thoughts on Social Media and how has it helped you? What are your favourite Social Media apps at the moment?
New technological advancements are influencing our world in increasingly apparent ways With an emphasis on all things visual, and direct access to millions, like facebooks Instagram and so many other apps like Tikktok has helped bring worthy causes to the fore ,the ability to reach out to a big audience on everyone's platform and The fact that literally everybody can use this medium and use their voice just shows the impact of social media is irreplaceable there's a range of ways in which social media is influencing culture, and changing the way we communicate, discover and get involved in different elements. For ages brands and advertisers have been seeking to shape consumers thoughts, attitude and behaviour through television and billboards, And at this moment in time, advertising through influencers are so popular and proved effective, that for instance if many influencers wear specific collection of a designer/ brand, that specific piece or collection could go so viral and out of stock in conclusion. For me having the opportunity to work as a blogger and influencer to create content for brands and businesses also to be able to communicate with my audience and stay engaged with them to influence and blog about everything on lifestyle fashion and beauty and share my experience with them! Instagram is my favourite at the moment.

Lopez’s long-time friend, producer and collaborator Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas and Jordan’s business partners and owners of Las’ Lap bar Vince Bryant, Bryce Sheldon and Scott Robert Williams. “For Spring, I wanted to evolve our Coach family story and speak to the way in which collective action and optimism can change things for the better,” said Coach Creative Director Stuart Vevers. “At the start of a new year and new chapter for so many, it’s important to put ourselves out there and support and recognize one another.” “So often we are going through the day-to-day motion of life without properly taking a moment to acknowledge the people who drive change in optimism in our lives, community and the world,” said Lopez. “Coach It Forward to me means to pay it forward and to be grateful. I’m thrilled that I had this opportunity to recognize my family and my chosen family of creatives, collaborators, thinkers, doers and friends who have had such a positive impact on my life.”
To bring the campaign to life, Coach collaborated with photographer Renell Medrano and stylist Olivier Rizzo. Friends and family of the cast recognized in the campaign include Jennifer
“When you step back, you see that we’re all the sum of the people who have helped us along,” said Jordan. “I think of my mom and dad, my family, friends, the people I work with, and how they have all supported me and inspired me. I loved having this opportunity to lift up people who are important to me and recognize how their passion and positivity has moved my world forward.” March, 2021

For his second campaign for KENZO, Felipe Oliveira Baptista carried on the concept of distance photography – first developed for his Fall-Winter 2020 campaign with photographer Glen Luchford and stylist Jane How. These are vintage photographs from Glen Luchford’s archives – recreated with the models shot under a similar light than the vintage ones, this time wearing the KENZO Spring-Summer 2021 Collection: Bee a Tiger.

GENNY PRESENTS FW21/22 COLLECTION
50
Creative Director, Sara Cavazza Facchini, presented GENNY’s Fall Winter 2021/22 collection. The show was broadcasted digitally on www.genny.com and Italian craftsmanship met a cosmopolitan aesthetic. Designed for empowered, independent and sophisticated women, the collection evokes the timeless elegance of London’s private member clubs, such as Annabel’s. British classic upholstery fabrics inspire the prints and the floral decors, while the motifs of porcelain tea sets influence the delicate femininity of ethereal butterflies. Chic and sensual, the collection exudes a playful and ironic attitude, epitomized by a range of chain necklaces showing tiny 3D strawberry charms. www.theciin.com
“Italy is a fantastic country, featuring an artistic and cultural heritage which makes it famous around the world as a destination filled with beauty and creativity. For the Fall Winter 2021/22 season, Genny’s trip makesa stop in Milan, at prestigious Palazzo Reale, in the heart of the city. A journey across a world of beauty and modernity, which starts from Piermarini’s Grand Staircase, crosses the Arazzi and Colonne Halls, to reach the huge Cariatidi Salon, in an iconic setting which creates a strong connection between past and future.” Aiming to bring new life to one of the most prestigious sites of Italian Art, closed to the public for too many months, Genny creative director Sara Cavazza stages an ensemble of creativity and elegance, where Italian craftsmanship meets a cosmopolitan aesthetic. “With this show, we want to convey a message of strength and unity: a positive restrart which we and the Made In Italy system need now more than ever!” Designed for empowered, independent and sophisticated women, the collection evokes the timeless elegance of London’s private member clubs, such as Annabel’s. British classic upholstery fabrics inspire the prints and the f loral decors, while the motifs of porcelain tea sets inf luence the delicate femininity of ethereal butterf lies. The lineup opens with a palette of white tones, an homage to Genny’s heritage, that meets a graphic attitude in black sophisticated details. Sara Cavazza chooses the orchid as the season’s iconic f lower, which pops up as the glossy buttons of a f luid trench, as well as intarsia decorating a sustainable shearling coat. If contrasting stitching frames the silhouettes of an ultra feminine sheath dress with a high slit, a suit with a fitted jacket and cigarette pants is crafted from a jacquard fabric with Genny lettering. Mannish ties are worn with soft chiffon blouses in the college-inspired outfits, while in a sophisticated interpretation of the leisure world a white tracksuit is enriched with black logo details. Thin belts with bows put the focus on the waist in the pieces, including a jacquard coat with an orchid motif, while a feminine take on the Victorian look defines a mustard leather mini dress. Evening wear gets sensual and intriguing. The highwaist cuts of skirts and dresses evoke a tuxedo look, while lace bodices draw butterf ly motifs on the skin. Luxury sparkle is created through shimmering sequins and lurex fabrics in dark blue tones mixed with strawberry red touches. Blue is paired with purple in the elegant jacquard fabric used for an ultra chic tuxedo, its mannish elegance balanced by the femininity of a mini lace frock embroidered with 3D butterf lies for a cloud-like effect. Orchid-shaped details bloom on brooches, skin-tight leather boots, and mules. The brand’s continuous commitment towards sustainability ref lects in the use of an apple-based vegan leather crafted for the new logo Business Bag, as well as for envelope styles. For the night, clutches are enriched with a cascade of sequins, while chained earrings add a modern touch with gold and silver mixed with pops of blue and red. Chic and sensual, the collections exudes a playful and ironic attitude, epitomized by a range of chain necklaces showing tiny 3D strawberry charms. March, 2021

Louis Vuitton Neverfull
58
Louis Vuitton is the biggest handbag brand in the world, it has a handbag history as long and storied as any in fashion. Louis Vuitton created the Neverfull bag in 2007, only 14 years ago! Classified as an icon, the striped interior of this timeless bag recalls Louis Vuitton’s distinct history of travel and the canvas of its original trunks. Moving from one place to the next, a woman carrying the Neverfull, seizes every moment. Women carry their lives in their bags and the Neverfull embraces this attitude towards life. In 2007 it was first introduced as a seasonal bag to use at the beach, but quickly became an iconic bag that's always available. Neverfull is an ideal tote. It takes up to 45 hours to create a Neverfull bag. Next to its outstanding quality, the bag is also very versatile. To make sure you never lose track of your keys and cards, it comes with an attached clutch. The GM model, which is the biggest model of the Neverfull collection, can carry up to 9 KG without the subtle leather handles breaking. In 2013, Louis Vuitton celebrated the Neverfull with a new version of this iconic bag. The redesigned interior features a fresh textile lining and heritage details inspired by the House's archives. Best of all, the zipped clutch can be carried separately as a chic pochette or serve as an extra pocket. The lining in a selection of bright shades lend a pop of vivid colour to the timeless Monogram canvas. www.theciin.com

German Design Award 2021 for the True Thinline Les CouleursTM Le Corbusier
66
We at Rado are proud to add a further renowned award to our long list of accolades. The German Design Award 2021 in Gold in the category “Excellent Product Design – Luxury Goods” goes to the True Thinline Les CouleursTM Le Corbusier, our colourful range of ultra-thin watches made from high-tech ceramic. The German Design Award introduced in 2012 is the premium international award from the German Design Council and is one of the most renowned design awards in the world. Each year, top-class entries from product and communications design, which are each groundbreaking in the international design landscape in their own way, are presented with awards in the three categories “Excellent Product Design”, “Excellent Communications Design” and “Excellent Architecture”. The most prestigious award presented is Gold. It is precisely this honour that has now been bestowed upon the Rado True Thinline Les CouleursTM Le Corbusier. With this richly coloured collection, Rado pays tribute to a real design legend. The True Thinline Les CouleursTM
Le Corbusier celebrates the work and, in particular, the pioneering colour theory of the visionary architect with a unique range of nine models made from solid high-tech ceramic. Each individual piece represents one of the colours from the nine groups of Le Corbusier’s colour theory. And each one features our groundbreaking monobloc case made from injected high-tech ceramic, which has revolutionised traditional watchmaking. The jury of the German Design Award justifies its decision as follows: “The clear, timelessly elegant design language of the ceramic watch, together with the unique colours of the Les Couleurs Le Corbusier collection, forms a fascinating and harmonious unit of extraordinary aesthetic quality. At the same time, the watches appear wonderfully young and fresh thanks to the colours. A surprising edition that adds a youthful facet to the classic image of the traditional Rado brand.” We at Rado are delighted about the renowned award, which we are only too happy to add to our success story.

CHRONOGRAPH FOR THE CUP (AMERICA CUP) To celebrate its role as Official Timekeeper, OMEGA has launched a race-ready timepiece that delivers extraordinary precision under pressure. With its new chronograph lock-system, quickchange strap and water grip pushers, the OMEGA Seamaster Diver 300M America’s Cup Chronograph is a fitting tribute to the 36th America’s Cup presented by PRADA. Built from stainless steel, the 44 mm chronograph has a blue ceramic dial and bezel ring, which features a white enamel diving scale. To get a better handle on the watch in high swells, OMEGA has included soft-touch rubber pushers, ergonomically designed to work efficiently in the wet and stylishly picked out in red and blue. Its laser-engraved wave-pattern dial includes a ‘regatta countdown indicator ring’ in red anodized aluminium, which features an hour disc underneath the subdial, and a red anodized aluminium minute and rhodiumplated small seconds hand inspired by the shape of a boat hull. The central seconds chronograph hand, also in red anodized aluminium, carries an America’s Cup on the counterweight. OMEGA’s exclusive CHRONO LOCK system is included to secure the chronograph functions when needed. A must when marking time on the water, as sailing at high speeds leaves no room for error. As with all great commemorative watches, the event and year is clearly marked and highlighted in bold. On the Alveol shaped caseback, engravings filled with blue lacquer spell out “36th America’s Cup” and “Auckland 2021”. OMEGA’s Seamaster Diver 300M America’s Cup Chronograph has a metal bracelet and additional rubber strap, both equipped with OMEGA’s new Quick Change system. One press of a button releases the pins from the watch-head, enabling the wearer to switch easily between the bracelet and the strap without having to use tools. Unlike the chronograph it forward. Chronometer to the task.
boats, the America’s Cup requires no winds to push OMEGA’s Co-Axial Master Calibre 9900 is more than up
A special presentation box in the colours of the America’s Cup, keeps it safe and secure on land - and adds to its collectable appeal.

Penhaligon's launches 'THE INIMITABLE MR PENHALIGON' for Men & Women
74
When Mr Penhaligon first made cologne (for royals and nobility,) he had set up in Mayfair, (the centre of Old-World civility). Queen Victoria, and the Shah of Persia soon wore his scent, and the request for a Royal Warrant had swift regal consent. This was 1870, and the world was discovering what would one day be his legacy. 'The Inimitable Mr Penhaligon' is a perfume for gentlemen. Majestic and chic. Like a good friend, stimulating and comforting in equal measure. Like great art and music, uplifting. Composed in expert, meticulous detail, but with strong, confident brush strokes - William Penhaligon's own scent. Beyond distinguished. A timeless classic, since 2020. Created with Vetiver, one of perfumery ́s master ingredients. Earthy, warm and fresh. Woven inside an Oriental structure, one of perfumery ́s mistresses of sophistication.

DUNHILL SS21 | DECONSTRUCTED TAILORING
88
For Spring Summer 2021, dunhill celebrates craft, utility and the subversion of British tailoring codes. Fusing New Romanticism with relaxed Japanese and Italian tailoring, previously hidden materials and techniques are revealed. Chosen for their purity and naturalness, traditional reinforcing fabrics such as chest canvas, shoulder canvas and Linen Holland are brought to the fore. Used to construct relaxed, evening and signature half-wrap jackets, they are paired with trousers in a utility or strapped style and belted at the waist. Silk acetate brings a sheer quality to selected pieces, hinting at the garments underneath. Details including pad stitching – an invisible, strong stitch, used to keep internal layers in place – embellish external collars and lapels. Highlighting the beauty of function, these exposed elements become decoration.

CAROLINA HERRERA HEART FOR HOPE
98
At this time of incredible hardship, Carolina Herrera is proud to announce a commitment of $7 million to help provide testing, medical equipment, ambulances, hygiene kits and psychological support to communities impacted by the coronavirus pandemic across the globe. This project, through the charitable initiative Carolina Herrera Heart for Hope, was built around one of the brand’s most cherished assets: craftsmanship. And so, a percentage of the proceeds from every Carolina Herrera bag or accessory purchased from May 8th until December 31st 2020 will be donated to Red Cross and Red Crescent and distributed in 44 countries. Red Cross and Red Crescent combat poverty, inequality, and health crises all over the globe, and their generations of experience make them crucial in the war against the impact of COVID-19. “We have been in absolute awe of the selfless work by volunteers and essential workers from Red Cross and Red Crescent. For us, being able to collaborate with them is a true privilege,” said Carolina A. Herrera, Beauty Creative Director for the brand. “This is the absolute best way to assure that what we as a community contribute will be used in a fair, equitable, and intelligent way.” www.theciin.com
99
Within the Middle East, the activation was rolled out in partnership with the Emirates Red Crescent, Qatar Red Crescent Society, Bahrain Red Crescent Society, Jordanian Red Crescent, and Egyptian Red Crescent Society. With the same spirit, CH Carolina Herrera also partnered with the National Home Health Care Foundation (NHHCF) in KSA to implement the donations locally. NHHCF is a charity NGO whose mission is to maximize the quality of life for needy patients when they are back in their own home environment by providing them with medical and social support services. “This initiative has served as a channel for our customers to make their own critical contribution in the fight against the impact of COVID-19 while engaging with the heritage of the Carolina Herrera brand in a meaningful way,” added Gordon. “Our craftsmanship is at the heart of everything we do. Carolina Herrera bags are used and loved for years, and they represent our commitment to creativity, quality, and handmade techniques. To see our craftsmanship being placed at the service of our community is one of the greatest rewards imaginable”. March, 2021

Fauré Le Page Introduces The Knight Belt
Upholding the spirit and ingenuity of leather craftsmanship, France's oldest maroquinier Fauré Le Page revolutionizes ‘The It bum bag' into an arsenal of seduction- the Knight Belt.
106
Inspired by cartridge pouches from the XVIIIth century, Artistic Director Augustin de Buffévent, designed the Knight Belt. His new creation is cast in a blend of leather and the brand's signature Ecailles Canvas. Evoking a sense of armour and ornament, the house signature canvas bestows the power of strength and allure to the wearer. ImageIncorporating a flap embedded with the metal cast “FLP” monogram, the small and light belt bag is held together with a cartridge inspired clasp. Designed to free your hands, it accommodates a comfortable crossbody and waist carry. The front pocket provides quick access to smaller essentials. The main compartment keeps your belongings secure and organized. The Knight Belt can also be armed with matching accessories like the pistol inspired 7CC Zip Card Holder Gangsta or Etendard mirror. Drawing from Fauré Le Page's vibrant history, the Knight Belt is coloured in the House palette mix/blend of Steel grey Ecailles Canvas and black leather, Empire green Ecailles Canvas and forest leather, and Paris blue Ecailles Canvas and navy leather. The canvas is further defined by 'Ocre de Mars' yellow as a tribute to the god of war.

Experience Spring Scents with BALMESSENCE In Dubai, spring comes with rising temperatures and a soft reminder of the harsh summer ahead – we still do have an uplifting spring mood though! The character of spring fragrances are, therefore, different from normal European climates. A combination of spring fresh, aquatic or floral notes with spicy, woody or gourmand notes is ideal. Fresh or floral fragrance with the twist of intense notes is a perfectly fragrant fit for a warm, Middle Eastern spring. Here are Balmessence’s Middle Eastern Spring Fragrance picks:
112
1. Jardin De Giverny – Iris Perfume by Arte Profumi - This is a floral fragrance but with woody, fresh and rosy notes. Iris makes it a bit powdery at the base. A great artistic spring fragrance for ladies.
2. Chrystal Love by Attar Collection Perfect oriental spring mood reflection, for ladies. Fruits, rose mixed with white chocolate, white musk and tonka beans- floral, a warm, romantic, sensual cocktail.
3. Bois d’Oud by Detaille 1905 - A combination of oud with fresh notes make this fragrance a lighter version than most oud fragrances. It is enhanced with saffron, Moroccan cedar and floral notes. True unisex. Wear it morning, day and even at night.
6. Oud Al Sahraa by BERDOUES - This is a fresh and warm oud fragrance, elegant and unisex. Oud wood, myrrh and mandarin make an unusual and sensual combination.

Breitling’s Top Time Deus Limited Edition As part of this exciting new partnership, Breitling is now also the official timekeeper of the Deus Swank Rally – the epic motorcycle championship celebrating vintage bikes in diverse locations around the world, including Italy, France, Australia, and Bali. But the Top Time Deus Limited Edition isn’t just for bikers, as Breitling CEO Georges Kern points out. “Bikers, boarders, surfers, digital nomads … this is a timepiece for dynamic people of action, purpose, and style. Our versatile Top Time Deus celebrates having the freedom to explore the world your way, at your pace.” The people behind Deus Ex Machina share this view. “The Deus philosophy recalls an era before the various pursuits of fun – motorcycling, surfing, skateboarding, whatever – were marketed into fundamentalist factions. All are welcomed under the Deus roof,” says founder Dare Jennings.
113
Meet the Deus Squad And anyway, who says you have to pick just one pursuit? Californian Forrest Minchinton, who’s passionate about surfboards as well as motorcycles, is a prime example. “It’s all about a life well ridden, and if you can stop time while keeping time, all the better,” says Minchinton. He’s part of the triumvirate of Breitling’s new Deus Squad – which also includes Hawaiian competitive surfer Sierra Lerback and French motorcycle engineer and designer Jeremy Tagand. All three have been involved with Deus Ex Machina for years and are now a part of its rugged and fearless DNA. Breitling is excited to have them on board for the launch of a timepiece that expresses their no-limits approach to life. March, 2021

MOSCHINO | FALL/WINTER 2021
120
This season starts with the concept of a show within a show within a show within a show, fueled by a dash of time-travel to the sophistication and grandeur of early Hollywood. It’s a mashup of Moschino-isms, stage-lit by a golden spotlight and dappled in escapist nostalgia. The revered, ahead-of-its time 1939 George Cukor film The Women—in which no male character is seen or heard— influenced Scott. In particular, there is a Technicolor fashion show scene that struck a chord (here, too, this links to the meta observation of one vignette within another). The Women’s plot kicks off at an expensive Manhattan salon, where society ladies go to get the newest nail color: Jungle Red! Presented through a short film named for that same varnish hue, Fall hosts a panoply of items and ideas, ranging from reworked pinstripe suiting to an iconic-ironic prairie dress allover printed with physical cows on the prairie. Scott also takes such mundanities as potato sacks and cuts them into bellsleeves, poufs and bows, imbuing irreverence and confidence into something otherwise deemed largely ignorable. The agricultural then gives way to a full-on fauna moment, with a high-shine power-suit made of faux gold croc, complete with
a tail. There are strapless sequined giraffe dresses and beaded leopard frocks, and a show-stopping mini with an embellished flamingo, its neck itself becoming the garment’s neckline. From there, the trip continues: an outdoor series features full skirts, puff sleeves and a belted trench, along with an on-the-go kit holding everything you’d find on a lady’s vanity table. Brushes for blush, hair combs, tweezers and even a compact shaped in Moschino’s signature teddy bear, all included! As we progress, the collection begins to boast ball gowns in voluminous silhouettes, appearing to be hand painted in postImpressionist brushstrokes. At the conclusion, Scott enters the realm of 1940’s evening, with pale pink, fuchsia, black and goldcharmed dresses that seem as if they’re reincarnated off of a midcentury red carpet at Los Angeles’s Biltmore Hotel. Business attire? Check! Ladies of leisure? Check! A night at the opera? Check! Hollywood heroines? Check! Remember, though, no matter the scenario, you should always consider one thing: wearing Jungle Red! www.theciin.com

BOSS launches Spring/Summer 2021 campaign
138
An international cast of up-and-coming talent, led by South Sudanese supermodel Adut Akech, introduces the new collection in a bold campaign directed by Fabien Baron. Fusing elegance and ease, the looks are more relaxed than ever before. The work of artist William Farr, who combines flowers with found objects such as wire, is a rich point of reference, inspiring the use of metal eyelets throughout the collection. For men, the new season offers agenda-setting updates of classic BOSS pieces. Graphic patterns combine with new shapes, such as in the combination of a check jacket with tracksuitstyle pants. The result? A relaxed, easy-wear outfit that is every bit as elegant as a suit. The sophisticated use of stripes, camouflage and a bold logo graphic across knitwear, sweaters and outerwear underlines the contemporary mood. Colors range from conker, a masculine red brown first seen on the FW20 runway, to fresh blue and yellow tones. A selection of updated neutrals, including a rich camel brown and crisp off-white, round out the palette. Worn in combination, the shades infuse each look with an uplifting and dynamic feel. For women, the collection has a sense of the playful, yet retains the precision and sharpness that defines the BOSS aesthetic.The relaxed mood is evident here too, with elegantly draped fabrics and loose fits providing a contemporary take on femininity. New combinations, such as sharp www.theciin.com

outerwear worn with trackpants, or tailoring with a logo sweatshirt, are both confident and contemporary. Colors echo those in the men’s collection, with a particular emphasis on zesty yellow and timeless black. Patterns are a key feature here too, while the use of metal elements references William Farr’s juxtaposition of the natural and industrial and reveals the power of contrasts. South Sudanese modelof-the-moment Adut Akech stars in the Spring/Summer 2021 campaign alongside a new generation of faces, emphasizing the forward-looking mood of the collection. With photography by David Sims, the visual language of the season offers a bright and optimistic attitude for the start of the year and beyond. March, 2021

The new Mercedes-Benz C-Class: Sedan
157
March, 2021
W
elcome to a new, even more digital and efficient world, and welcome home: the new C-Class stands for both, and in all respects creates a futureproof comfort zone in a time of worldwide transformation. As the first classic model series from Mercedes-Benz, the new C-Class is electrified throughout thanks to plug-in hybrids and mild hybrids with 48-volt technology and integrated startergenerator. Due to a high-efficiency battery system, it achieves an electric range of about 100 kilometres (WLTP[1]) as a plug-in hybrid. That is unprecedented in this category to date. It also sets standards with respect to sustainability. And because the C-Class is one of the company's highest-volume model series, this systematic electrification has a correspondingly strong effect on our carbon footprint. Other technical refinements include optional features such as DIGITAL LIGHT and rear-axle steering. The first units of the new C-Class Sedan are expected to arrive in the region by the second half of the year. The new C-Class already looks to be in motion at a standstill with its dynamic proportions, thanks to the combination of short front overhang, long wheelbase and rear overhang. The sporty bonnet with power domes accentuates this urge of forward motion. The windscreen and passenger cell have been moved to the rear for these classic proportions known in the industry as "cab-backward design". The preceding model was already a great step forward in terms of a high-value appeal in the interior, and the new C-Class goes even further with respect to modern luxury. The interior adopts highlights from the new S-Class, adding a sporty touch. Other features producing the sporty, superior appearance include the wide track and the flush 17- to 19-inch wheels in modern designs.

unmistakable day and night appearance. In the Sedan, the lamps for the first time have a two-piece design in the C-Class, with the light functions divided between the side wall and boot lid lamps. Their precisely configured interiors also showcase the standard of particularly high quality in detail. Optional or line-specific trim in the rear bumper attractively rounds off the rear view. Three new paint finishes – spectral blue, high-tech silver and opalite white – have been added to the colour range. Interior design: sporty touches thanks to the driver-centred design The dashboard is divided into an upper and a lower section: into a wing-like section with new, flattened round vents reminiscent of aircraft engine nacelles, and into an opulent expanse of trim. The latter flows from the centre console to the dashboard without interruption. Driver-focus adds to the sportiness: the dashboard and central display are slightly tilted towards the driver by six degrees. The driver area features a high-resolution LCD screen. It is freestanding and appears to float in front of the wing profile and the expanse of trim. This sets the driver display apart from traditional cockpits with classic round dials. Customers have a choice between a 10.25-inch (26.0 cm) or a 12.3-inch (31.2 cm) version. The paradigm change to digitisation is also obvious in the central display: the vehicle functions can be controlled using the high-quality touchscreen. Its portrait orientation is particularly advantageous for navigation. The touchscreen likewise appears to float above the expanse of trim. Like the dashboard, the screen is slightly tilted towards the driver. The central display has a screen diagonal of 9.5 inches (24.1 cm) as standard. A larger version measuring 11.9 inches or 30.2 cm is optionally available.
The brand's hallmark radiator grille characterises the front. All models feature a central star, with the design and character of the radiator grille differing in the details. The base model has a central star and louvres. In the AVANTGARDE line, there are additional decorative elements in the louvres, while the radiator grille and front apron feature chrome surrounds. The distinguishing feature of the AMG Line is the diamond grille with the star design in chrome.
The special design of the optional AVANTGARDE or sport seats of the new C-Class uses layers and enveloping surfaces to create a visual impression of lightness. A dashboard covered with manmade leather and featuring nappa-look beltlines is available for the C-Class (optional equipment, standard with AMG Line). The range of available trim showcases innovative surfaces. These include new interpretations of open-pored veneers in brown tones and a black, open-pored wood veneer featuring fine inlays of genuine aluminium that follow the dashboard's contours. Latest generation of MBUX: intuitively operated and learning

The vehicle interior becomes even more digital and intelligent, as both the hardware and software have made great strides: Brilliant images on the LCD screens make it easy to control vehicle and comfort functions. The driver display and media display offer a holistic, aesthetic experience. The information is presented in a clearly structured way. Mercedes-Benz developed a new display aesthetic for the S-Class, which now is systematically used as the basis for other models. The look of the screens can be individualised with three display styles (Discreet, Sporty, Classic) and three modes (Navigation, Assistance, Service). In "Classic" style, the driver is welcomed with a familiar display environment. The proven display with two tubes and changing content between them provides all the information relevant to the driver. "Sporty" is dominated by the colour red, with dynamic design of the central rev counter. In "Discreet" style, the content is reduced to what is essential. In addition, both screens can be shown in seven colour schemes with the ambient lighting. This makes for an impressive colour experience in the interior. In "Assistance Mode", the traffic situation is shown in real time supplemented with important display information. The full-screen navigation was adopted from the S-Class, and gives the driver the best possible guidance on a journey. Powertrain: systematic electrification of the modern fourcylinder engines Thanks to systematic electrification and intelligent downsizing, the new C-Class sets new standards in efficiency. The engine range has only four-cylinder units from the current modular FAME (Family of Modular Engines) Mercedes-Benz engine March, 2021
family. Accordingly, the engine range plays a major role in the flexibility of the international production network, with needsbased electrification. In addition to turbocharging, the petrol engines now have an integrated starter-generator (ISG) for intelligent assistance at low engine speeds as a mild hybrid of the second generation. This ensures outstanding power delivery. The ISG uses a 48 volt on-board electrical system that ensures functions such as gliding, boosting or energy recovery, and makes significant fuel savings possible. The engines also start very rapidly and comfortably as a result, so that the start/stop function is almost as imperceptible to the driver as the transition from gliding with the engine switched off to strong acceleration under engine power. When idling, the intelligent interaction between the ISG and the combustion engine ensures outstandingly smooth running. Transmission: Automatic now standard across the board The 9G-TRONIC transmission was developed further for adapting the ISG, and is installed in all C-Class models. The electric motor, power electronics and transmission cooler have now moved into or to the transmission. Previously required lines are eliminated, which offers advantages with regard to installation space and weight. In addition, the efficiency of the transmission has been increased. Amongst other things, the optimised interplay with the electric auxiliary oil pump reduces the delivery rate of the mechanical pump by 30 percent compared with the predecessor – good for efficiency. Furthermore, it uses a new generation of the fully integrated transmission control with multi-core processor and new design and connectivity technology. In addition to the increased computing power, the number of electric interfaces has been drastically reduced, and the weight of the transmission control has been cut by 30 percent compared with the predecessor.
BREAKFAST O’CLOCK! by travel-expert José Berrocoso
ORGANIC BREAKFAST TO BOOST YOUR MORNING Summer House on Music Lane, the full service restaurant at Hotel Magdalena in Austin, is inspired by the casual sophistication that defines a lake house weekend. 160 w w w. h o t e l m ag d a l e n a . c o m Organic breakfast products are an easy and affordable way to dip a toe in organic.

Ant this is the late motiv at Summer House on Music Lane, the restaurant of Hotel Magdalena, in the United States, the newest hotel from Austin’s acclaimed Bunkhouse hospitality company in collaboration with renowned architecture firm Lake | Flato. "I encourage everyone to grow your own food. It’s so very rewarding and also delicious. We’re so lucky at the hotel to have a garden on-site. We are currently fermenting chile piquin chiles to add to our house hot sauce, and we grow so many different flowers and herbs to use in our cooking and plating. I’m looking forward to spring when we’ll see poppies, a number of different chile varieties, hoja santa, and basils” says Jeffrey Hundelt, Executive Chef at the property. Our breakfast recoomendation: eggs in Purgatory (herbed pesto, aleppo, lentils, za’atar toast), smoked Salmon Tartine (house rye, whipped cream cheese, tomato, caraway crunch) with a breakfast Sandwich (everything brioche, scrambled eggs, bacon, fresno hot sauce) and a selection of pastries (including scones).

TAKING OFF

THE ARCHITECTURAL WONDERS OF DUBAI In a city known for superlatives, you’ll find eye-popping architecture on every corner. From the world’s tallest tower and most luxurious hotel to space-age structures that defy gravity. 162
www.theciin.com
Architectural styles in Dubai have changed significantly in recent years. While architecture was initially traditional, Dubai’s current modernist architecture features innovative exposed-glass walls, stepped ascending spirals and designs that offer subtle nods to traditional Arabic motifs. When the World Trade Centre was erected in 1979, it stood as the sole skyscraper in a mostly empty desert. Many observers scratched their heads, wondering what the point was of a high-rise in the still sleepy town. Even as late as 1990, most of Sheikh Zayed Road remained an empty sandpit. But today, the World Trade Centre appears antiquated next to the sleek high-rises that stretch as far as the eye can see. Building materials used for Dubai skyscrapers are simple, with most structures made of concrete and glass. Most of the taller buildings in Dubai are residential, with some buildings also designated for commercial purposes. The most recent innovation to architecture in Dubai is the 3-printed construction of structures. Dubai is home to the world’s first-ever 3D-printed office and a 3D-printed two-storey building. It’s remarkable how far the architecture in Dubai has come and it looks like the city has plenty of exciting new additions coming soon!

The symbol of Dubai
One of the most prominent displays of Dubai’s modern architecture is the Burj Khalifa. Since its completion in 2008, the Burj Khalifa remains the tallest building in the world with a total height of 2,722 ft. The building was designed to be the symbol of Dubai – unique, progressive and touching new heights. Its design is inspired by Islamic architecture, rising up from a flat desert foundation in a spiral pattern. Each cross-section of the tower is aligned to minimize vibration from the wind. At the top of this grand structure is a 660-foot-high steel spire that houses communication equipment. The symbol of Dubai was designed by Chicagobased firm Skidmore, Owings and Merrill, the winners of an invited design competition, and features a triple-lobed footprint inspired by the spider lily flower.
Burj Al Arab
164
Created by architect Tom Wright to resemble the billowing sail of an Arabian dhow, the massive Burj Al Arab (which translates to "Arabian Tower") extends 321m (1,053 ft.) to the sky. The iconic structure, which rises from its own man-made island, dominates the Jumeirah Beach coastline, eclipsing the wavelike-shaped Jumeirah Beach Hotel just in front. The Burj is made of a steel frame exterior wrapped around a concrete tower, with white Teflon-coated fiberglass forming the building's white "sail." At night, the Burj is lit up in a spectacular show of changing colors. A helipad and glass-enclosed restaurant extend from the top. The expensive hotel features the world's largest atrium, and the opulent interior design includes 8,000 sq. meters (86,111 sq. ft.) of 22-carat gold leaf.
Dubai Frame
Nowhere in the world is the clash of old and new more apparent than Dubai. In the north of the city, Old Dubai is a maze of alleyways, lively souks and centuries-old fortresses. To the south, the Downtown Dubai skyline looks to have been plucked straight from the script for “Blade Runner.” Perfectly positioned between the two, the Dubai Frame in Zabeel Park captures that juxtaposition, presenting scenes of the “old” from one side, and the “new” from the other. Dubbed the largest picture frame in the world at 492-feet-high and 344-feet-wide, the gold structure opened in January 2018, offering visitors 360-degree views from the glass-bottomed bridge that spans the top of the frame. www.theciin.com
Dubai’s home for future innovation
The Museum of the Future will feature interesting displays explaining how technology can evolve in the next 20 years. Founded by the Dubai Future Foundation, the museum will demonstrate how technology can enhance our bodies and minds, as well as manage social and economic solutions. The museum’s framework, comprising 2,400 diagonally intersecting steel members, was completed in November 2018; the facade panels now are being lifted into place. The museum is due to open. The architectural world defines the futuristic shape of the museum as a torus with an elliptical void, but a giant hula hoop might be a more accessible point of reference. Together, the calligraphy and the building’s unconventional shape have made this one of the most complex construction projects ever attempted.
Much more
The largest artificial islands in the world sit off the coast of Dubai in the Gulf. Collectively, the Palm Islands are considered by some to be an Eighth Wonder of the World. The Bluewaters Islands is the latest addition. A new vibrant destination that combines architectural, entertainment and theatrical lighting by neolight. The iconic destination is also home to the tallest Ferris wheel in the world, the Ain Dubai, along with one of the most famous hotels, Caesars Palace and 200 exclusive shops and restaurants.

The Meydan Bridge in Dubai is an architectural marvel. Connecting the Meydan hotel to the main road, its undulating wave form and striking construction are seen by millions every year. In order to elevate the prominence of this route and to create an architectural landmark in the city, it was decided that the bridge should be illuminated.

This month is dominated by ambitions and personal goals, the professional life being at the maximum point since March 20. You will also enjoy many financial opportunities, but in love, you might hit the jackpot.
The most favored Libra people now are those who are married or who are involved in a stable relationship. Now is the moment for most Libras to decide if they want to enter into a partnership, to choose a new partner for their business. The New Moon in Pisces supports the long-term connections of Libras.
The professional side is well-represented, but not as well as the romantic life, which is at its peak. Spiritually, a visible improvement occurs, and this will encourage you to focus more on your personal goals.
166
Until March 22, some family issues might keep you stressed out, but fortunately, with the help of your lover, you will manage to overcome them. The romantic life, in turn, is at its peak, and it is not out of the question to increase your family size soon.
In terms of career, the situation will change for the better, new advancement opportunities occurring, but the financial aspect, unfortunately, will be in regress. Pay special attention to your couple’s life – Mercury and Jupiter will form a coalition and put spokes in your wheel!
Social intelligence is essential during this month if you want to achieve your professional goals. Saturn will influence your financial situation and will determine you to work even more. It is why, after March 20, love gets complicated.
The energetic presence of Mars enlightens the house of humanitarian activities and groups. The Cancers will socialize more than usual, attend fundraisings successfully, and help many people by volunteering in various forms.
Maybe you will buy some home décor, and if it is possible, make sure you pay it up in installments, so you don’t spend all the money at once. You succeed in anything that has to do with documents and exams, you solve some matters that hold you in place, and you also receive a helping hand from your acquaintances.
Maybe you can do something to make things a bit easier regarding your monthly installments, better dealing with your expenses, and having some money for fun. You will save some money for a lovely weekend up in the mountains, or visit some friends, and recover both physically and mentally.
Perhaps you will reconsider the relationship with some of your friends, so you don’t give up on them, but see each other in certain conditions. Maybe you will start a new professional adventure and be delighted with the results and this enthusiasm that will accompany you throughout the project.
Uranus, the planet of unpredictability, will be in conjunction with Mercury, the ruling planet of Virgo, during the same period when the New Moon rises in Pisces, starting from March 13. The entrepreneurial Virgos seem to be successful. The New Moon in Pisces opens the path of the house of capital, of cash flow. The Virgos can “play” with an infusion of risky capital, pay an exorbitant short-term insurance policy, or receive an inheritance.
You will gain more money because, perhaps, you will work additionally and have some partnerships, if time allows it. You may start new projects that will highlight all the qualities that you didn’t have the opportunity to show, and you will reinvent yourself – it is a good time for your career.
