Shedding some light on how magazines really work:

With The Devil Wears Prada proving a huge success at the box-office, Daily News sheds light on how über-designer Tom Ford interacts with the world's best magazine editors when it comes time to launch a new fragrance;

Clad in a gray three-piece suit, white shirt unbuttoned, and tan as ever, Tom Ford personally greeted high profile editors this morning, including Anna Wintour, Glenda Bailey, and Robbie Myers at special one-on-one appointments to introduce his new women's fragrance, Black Orchid. Held in a townhouse on East 64th St. between Fifth and Madison, guests were met by an enormous, snowball-like, bouquet of purple orchids at least 5' x 5' in size. Accompanying the fragrant florals were super shiny, polished displays in black Lucite.

As word has it, no black orchids existed until Ford approached a botanist with the idea of creating a one-of-a-kind flower for his fragrance. Headspace technology was utilized to extract the scent from the sole flower developed. The main note is the black orchid, naturally, but is accompanied by a patchouli base and hints of chocolate. The result is a scent that is spicy Orientalnot super heavy, but at the same time, a personality smell that is immediately recognizable.

When it comes to fashion, Ford just can't seem to put a foot wrong.

Now... it seems awfully generous to be giving away your ipod... Don't even think for a second I'm going to swap your mini for my nano!! ;P

As for Tom Ford, he is always so impeccably dressed. Black orchid with patchouli and chocolate sounds wonderfully exotic - looking forward to trying it.

Yeah Tom ford is a god he single handedly got YSl back on the charts!!But its truly fashion editors are really DEvilish!!!

Anyway, back to the Devil Wears Prada here are some cool articles about

Anna Wintour is changing her office because of The Devil Wears Prada

Ever wanted to know who the real Emily was, find out here =]

I totally agree with Anna Wintour on updating her office, hopefully she'll get something bigger that one looks so clutered!

Two excellent finds Allan! The similarities between the offices are particularly fascinating!

The set designer for the movie said he made it from a photo of her office he found on the net.

Also I hear Emily has a friendster profile :)

i liked it but it did stray from the book a whole lot. too happy, i liked the book. it felt a lot more real especially the last bit. oh well, the clothes completely made up for it... and then some.

Anyone want to go see it together? when it comes out we could make a night of it and have drinks afterwards.... or perhaps im just in alco how will bring my hip flask in the movies anyway, lol

Certainly could be an excuse for a Victorian get-together :)
