This stuff annoys me. I'm her age. And like her, I was blessed with far-below-average-wrinklage (my older sisters and I regularly thank our pop for that). I've met people 10 years younger who have loads more wrinks. It's the luck of the draw (though hard livin / chain smokin / overexposure to sun can have some

It's on HBO so there will be sex and violence. Once you get past that, there isn't a show on TV with more substance. The entire cast is good, but Lena Headey, Charles Dance, and Peter Dinklage (among many others) are putting out some of the consistently best acting I've ever seen.

Interestingly, the person described as warm and kind and personable and liked by almost everyone - the kind of description that often is seen as best for women - is the new *male* editor - Baquet. So will that temperament work out for him in the long run, or not?

I think we're on the same page. And for the record, I don't think the use of these mannequins is particularly responsible, given the track record of the fashion industry, etc, but I don't think we should frame it in terms of "this body type is gross or unattractive" but rather talk about the abnormal (in that normal

Just so you know, some people have a shape (with visible ribs/bones) naturally. Body shaming in all its forms - denigrating someone's body or saying someone is 'ugly' just because of their body type, especially when you don't know their actual health status - should be avoided.

Waistcoat below the tailcoat. DID HE RENT THIS ????

You beat me to it. The waistcoat is too long.

They raise money for the museum, that's all I care most. $12M this year alone!

Ford unconsciously contrasted Cumberbatch's classic upper-class to-the-white-tie-born old world look with his American try-hard-and-look-too-perfect new world look.

Agreed. All his details, the tie, the shirt, are more correct than Cumberbatch's. But Ford's look is little too "try hard" compared to the effortless, I-just-threw-this-on-and-its-perfect look he managed to give Cumberbatch.

Tom Ford did Cumberbatch RIGHT. He looked FANTASTIC. Perfectly turned out. Better even that Ford himself, who looked like a cartoon superhero of a fashion designer in his white tie.

I'm just impressed that that is a REAL FUCKING BOWTIE.

Yeah, here's the thing for me. If you google "white tie" you run into a list of really explicit rules for what men wear. Like, no thought involved. I appreciate someone like Kanye putting his own spin on it by saying fuck the tie or whatever, because that fits his persona, but come on people, this is not hard. I also
