Vintage in Pills GIVENCHY Fall 1996 Paris – Fashion Channel

For the Fall/Winter 1996-1997 ready-to-wear collection, John Galliano drew inspiration from Spanish heritage and theatrical elegance, presenting a wardrobe that blended tailoring with romantic flourishes. Pinstriped matador-inspired jackets, high-waisted trousers, gray flannel jumpsuits, and sculpted coat dresses were accented with bows, gilt braid, and sharp, refined silhouettes.

Ruffled polka-dot dresses, sweeping white capes, strapless gowns, and frilled details introduced a sense of movement and drama, while lightweight fabrics contrasted with the traditional expectations of an autumn wardrobe. The collection reflected Galliano’s signature storytelling, combining elements of Givenchy’s couture tradition with youthful, expressive ready-to-wear design.

The Front Page is a 1931 American pre-Code screwball black comedy film directed by Lewis Milestone and starring Adolphe Menjou and Pat O’Brien. Based on the 1928 Broadway play of the same name by Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur, the film was produced by Howard Hughes, written by Bartlett Cormack and Charles Lederer, and distributed by United Artists. The supporting cast includes Mary Brian, Edward Everett Horton, Walter Catlett, George E. Stone, Mae Clarke, Slim Summerville, and Matt Moore. At the 4th Academy Awards, the film was nominated for Best Picture, Milestone for Best Director, and Menjou for Best Actor.

In 2010, this film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant”.[2][3][4] The film is in the public domain.[5] The February 2020 issue of New York Magazine lists The Front Page as among “The Best Movies That Lost Best Picture at the Oscars.”[6]

Two versions of the film exist, each made up of different takes, one for the international market and director Lewis Milestone’s preferred version for its original U.S. domestic release. Both versions are available on home video.[7]

In the film when the sheriff asks who threw a bucket out the window, Walter Catlett’s character replies: “Judge Mankiewicz threw it,” a reference to Hecht’s friend Herman J. Mankiewicz.

Plot
Duration: 1 hour, 40 minutes and 50 seconds.1:40:50
The full film
In an unnamed large city with multiple daily newspapers, star reporter Hildebrand “Hildy” Johnson and his Morning Post editor, Walter Burns, hope to cash in on a big story involving an escaped convicted murderer, Earl Williams. Williams is scheduled to go to the gallows at 7 o’clock the following morning for an anarchist-related murder of a black policeman. Esteemed newspaperman Johnson is about to quit the journalism trade and is on his way to marry his sweetheart Peggy Grant and relocate to New York City where an advertising job awaits him. Not surprisingly, his unscrupulous boss Burns does not want him to quit. He wants Johnson to remain on his staff so he can cover the major news story for the Morning Post.

Although he is an avowed anarchist, it is revealed that Williams is likely an innocent man who has been wrongly convicted of the policeman’s murder due to rising anti-red sentiments in his city.

Accordingly, Burns will do anything to make sure Johnson works on that angle of the story — including delaying his wedding trip. Hours before Williams’ scheduled execution, while being interviewed by an Austrian alienist and reenacting the murder, Williams manages to escape custody with the help of Sheriff Pinky Hartman’s gun which the inept lawman had carelessly loaned to the doctor. With the assistance of Johnson and Burns, the newspapermen hide the fleeing Williams in a rolltop desk in a room usually occupied by a bevy of newspaper reporters gathered to cover Williams’ execution. Johnson’s soon-to-be mother-in-law, Mrs. Grant, sees Johnson and Burns hide Williams in the desk. To silence her, Burns has some of his cronies roughly escort her out of the building.

Sheriff Hartman and the mayor of the city get a missive from the governor. It is a reprieve for Williams. However, Williams’ execution would be a political boon for the two men in an upcoming election, so they refuse to accept it. Instead, they send the messenger away with a bribe and the address of a house of ill repute. Johnson’s future mother-in-law eventually returns to the press room and Williams is found in the desk. The reporters all rush to call bulletins into their editors, each with widely varying and greatly exaggerated details about how the fugitive Williams was re-arrested.

Johnson and Burns are about to be arrested by Sheriff Hartman for aiding a fleeing criminal and kidnapping Mrs. Grant when the messenger from the governor reappears. Saying he is happily married and his conscience cannot let him accept the bribe, he tells the reporters about the politicians’ refusal to accept the governor’s pardon for Williams. The politicians quickly agree to drop their charges against the reporters in exchange for them not mentioning their own wrongdoings in the newspapers.

Despite offers of a promotion at the Morning Post from Burns, Johnson says he is retiring from the newspaper business to go on his wedding trip. Burns seems to accept Johnson’s career decision gracefully, even giving Johnson his prized gold watch as a thank-you gift for his services as a star reporter for the Morning Post. However, moments after Johnson and Mary depart for the railroad station, Burns arranges for the police to arrest Johnson at the train’s first stop on the pretense that Johnson has stolen his watch.

Vintage in Pills FENDI Spring 2010 Milan – Fashion Channel

Fendi’s Spring/Summer 2000 collection embraced a light, ethereal mood built around ivory and ecru tones, muted pastels, delicate fabrics and unfinished edges. Karl Lagerfeld introduced a subtle Parisian lingerie influence, seen in pieces such as a cream silk playsuit with a high neckline and a dotted tulle top layered over a frilled bra.

The softness of the collection was balanced by more rustic elements, including pale blue linen wrapped around the body like raw fabric. Fine craftsmanship came through in supple trousers and intricate leather-and-feather treatments applied to tulle outerwear.

Accessories added another dimension, with wood-handled bags featuring interchangeable embroidered or needlepoint fabric covers. The most striking pieces were transparent Perspex evening clutches with beveled edges, treated almost as sculptural objects rather than conventional handbags.
