She also brings her own distinct personality, making her the perfect personification of the modern Rabanne woman.” — Jerome Leloup, Vice President of Rabanne

  • Carolina Herrera presents the Spring 2025 Collection at NYFW

    Credits: Carolina Herrera Press The Carolina Herrera collection begins with a study in black and white, with a sharp focus on an element that accentuates each look. A precisely tailored high-waisted pant, paired with an oversized floral top in textured cotton. An immaculate dress in optical white lace and guipure. A stunning organza and polka-dot coat with flowers in contrasting sizes, worn with a skirt in the reverse color. A strapless dress with a profusion of ruched polka dots and handmade flowers, offering an optimistic and playful take on black and white. The collection then blooms into color, with a rigorously edited palette of four bold shades. Creative Director Wes Gordon strives for perfection in each piece through the most precise choices of color, cut, and silhouette, with an exacting dedication to graphic glamour. The joyful approach to dressing applies to both daywear and eveningwear, from a perfectly tailored cotton dress with exaggerated puff sleeves in Herrera red to the striking silk faille gown in a vision of Delphinium blue. One cannot help but smile at a relaxed knit dress in Happy pink or a tulle creation in Taxi Cab yellow. Matching handbags and delicate jewelry bring a playful and irreverent touch to dressing, showcasing the unparalleled expertise of our New York-based atelier. Adorned with yellow roses in their hair, models move through the circular Sunken Garden installation (1964) by American sculptor Isamu Noguchi; an ode to perfection in simplicity that resonates in this collection, where polka dots playfully converse with the concentric circles of the sculpture.

  • Zaia Angelo celebrates international recognition and speaks about activism: "My works portray trans people far from marginalization."

    Photo Disclosure Press The visual artist has already worked with Fafá de Belém, Anitta, Lexa, Blogueirinha, and other personalities. Zaia Angelo’s artistic journey has always been intertwined with activism. From a young age, the artist noticed the differences between people and began depicting them in her works, even before fully understanding the impact of her art. "It's always been a part of me. Since I was little, I noticed that people were different from each other, and I reflect that in my works." At the time, the word ‘representation’ wasn’t yet a trend, so I had no idea of the power my works held," Zaia comments. As a trans woman, Zaia finds in LGBTQIA+ themes an inexhaustible source of inspiration. Her art aims to give visibility and prominence to the trans community, challenging the marginalization imposed by society. "My works portray trans people far from marginalization and the suffering that cis people expect from our experiences, instead showing them in positions of power, places of achievement, and prosperity," says the artist. However, the path has not been easy. Zaia has faced censorship and resistance when addressing issues considered controversial, such as the portrayal of Adam and Eve as trans women in her piece "The Origin." The work was censored twice in exhibitions in Brazil but found recognition in Portugal, where it was nominated for an international award. Reflecting on this duality, Zaia says: "I’ve always had to deal with people’s ignorance and the strength of Brazilian conservatism. My work as a visual artist will never cease to be made, and I will never change my themes to please a hypocritical cisnormativity." Photo Disclosure Press For Zaia, art holds a transformative power, capable of changing perspectives and inciting reflection. "Art has the power to move people, whether through music, drawing, cinema, or theater. If used correctly, it can raise awareness," she emphasizes. She believes that young artists play a crucial role in the fight for social and political change, especially in times of technological advancements like Artificial Intelligence. "Young artists need to be more and more authentic and realize the power that art has to give voice to what we believe in," she highlights. When it comes to criticism, Zaia remains open to it, as long as it’s constructive. However, she notes that many of the criticisms she receives are often driven by prejudice. "I’ve been heavily targeted for portraying trans people in positions of power, being happy, fulfilled, and prosperous. Society is still very uncomfortable seeing trans people succeeding far from marginalization," she laments. Zaia Angelo's artistic future promises new fusions and experiments. Her next project will combine literature and visual arts, with works accompanied by poems that complement her visual creations. "I’m working on continuing my exhibition ‘Transgression,’ but this time the works will be accompanied by poems," she reveals, eager to explore new forms of artistic expression and continue using her art as a tool for activism and transformation.

  • COACH PRESENTS FALL CAMPAIGN "UNLOCK YOUR COURAGE"

    Photos Disclosure COACH The campaign is led by the new global ambassadors Elle Fanning, Charles Melton, Nazha, and Storm Reid, along with long-time Coach family members Jayson Tatum, Kōki, and Youngji Lee. NEW YORK, NY – Coach launches today the “Unlock Your Courage” campaign, starring new global ambassadors Elle Fanning, Charles Melton, Nazha, and Storm Reid, alongside Coach family members Jayson Tatum, Kōki, and Youngji Lee. The campaign showcases Coach’s Fall 2024 collection through a series of stories about having the courage to choose authentic self-expression over the idea of perfection. This is the latest installment of “The Courage to Be Real,” Coach’s initiative that, through its platforms, inspires people to express the many sides of who they are. The “Unlock Your Courage” campaign reshapes the brand’s talent lineup with the addition of new and exciting ambassadors – a global squad uniquely aligned with Coach’s core purpose, The Courage to Be Real. Each of these individuals, in their own way, embodies authenticity, a courageous spirit, talent, and style that make them stand out in their fields, serving as examples of how to confidently explore the different facets of their own identity. The Fall campaign reflects how today’s generation can sometimes feel constrained by their own expectations of perfection. From this initial vulnerability, the campaign’s stories flip the narrative, with each character unlocking their inner courage to break free from ideas of perfection and instead celebrate their unique self-expression. "My approach to the 'Unlock Your Courage' campaign was similar to my design process for the Fall collection," said Stuart Vevers, Creative Director. "We focused on the tension between something romantic and picturesque and something very real and spontaneous; a sense of being lived-in, but with an appealing aesthetic that epitomizes the spirit of New York. Elaine's dynamic photos with our house friends amplify this message of authenticity and the beauty that comes from embracing the imperfections of a well-lived life in well-loved fashion." In the campaign films directed by Camille Summers-Valli, Coach bags act as catalysts for the characters’ transformations, coming to life to help each individual access their inner confidence. Elle Fanning plays a young woman preparing for an audition, who receives a burst of confidence from the Brooklyn bag she carries. Charles Melton’s character is heading to a first date when his Hitch backpack helps him present himself authentically. In Nazha’s film, she plays a young woman on her way to a crowded party, and her Times Square Tabby bag gives her the confidence to arrive authentically. The new ambassadors join the veteran Coach family members in the campaign films, such as rapper Youngji Lee, who plays a young woman initially feeling insecure at a family gathering, before her Tabby bag helps her come out of her shell. These films are complemented by a series of photographs by British photographer Elaine Constantine, capturing relaxed moments of inner liberation and featuring the entire cast, including Storm Reid, who makes her debut with the brand in eyewear, and Jayson Tatum, in glasses and watches, alongside Kōki, with the new Times Square Tabby. Constantine worked closely with each individual to achieve a natural and uninhibited portrait style that evokes spontaneity and human emotion. “Self-expression is one of the fundamental pillars of Courage to Be Real, our purpose at Coach,” says Sandeep Seth, Global Chief Marketing Officer of Coach and Chief Growth Officer of Tapestry. “We’ve found time and again that the pursuit of perfection can prevent us from expressing ourselves authentically. ‘Unlock Your Courage’ aims to inspire our consumers to break free from this impossible standard and embrace the many facets of who they are.” Another star of the campaign is the iconic Tabby bag, which appears in new silhouettes and finishes with the launch of the Times Square Tabby. Alongside the new Brooklyn bag, this latest iteration of the Tabby is a highlight of Coach’s Fall 2024 collection, inspired by Creative Director Stuart Vevers’ vision of youthful interpretations of Coach’s American design language. The campaign also features tailored silhouettes and essential ready-to-wear pieces, including jeans, tops, and knits, as well as a variety of New York-inspired charms, such as yellow taxis, postcards, and the Statue of Liberty. “Unlock Your Courage” follows the “Find Your Courage” and “Wear Your Shine” campaigns, rooted in the concept of Expressive Luxury, Coach’s vision of a new kind of luxury focused on self-expression, as defined by today’s generation.

  • Is there prevention for throat cancer? Learn what head and neck surgeon, Dr. Debora Vianna, has to say

    Photos: Guilherme Rossi Throat cancer is a type of cancer that can affect the pharynx, larynx, or throat. This condition can be caused by factors such as smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, exposure to chemicals, and infection with the human papillomavirus (HPV). Fortunately, there are measures that can be taken to prevent throat cancer. Risk Factors Head and neck surgeon Dr. Debora Vianna believes that the best way to prevent throat cancer is to avoid risk factors like smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. "Smoking is one of the main risk factors for throat cancer, and quitting is the best thing you can do to reduce your chances of developing the disease. Excessive alcohol consumption also increases the risk, so it’s important to limit the amount of alcohol you consume," notes Dr. Debora Vianna. HPV as a Risk Factor Another crucial measure, according to the head and neck surgeon, is the importance of protecting against HPV to prevent throat cancer. "HPV is a sexually transmitted infection that can increase the risk of throat cancer. To protect yourself from HPV, it is important to practice safe sex and consider getting the HPV vaccine." Healthy and Balanced Diets Can Prevent Throat Cancer "Make sure to consume a variety of healthy foods, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Avoid processed and sugary foods, which can increase the risk of obesity, a risk factor for throat cancer." Regular Checkups and Preventive Exams are Essential "Regular doctor visits and preventive exams, such as throat screenings, are crucial for early detection of any abnormalities. The earlier throat cancer is detected, the greater the chances of successful treatment," concludes Dr. Debora Vianna, a specialist in head and neck surgery.   In general, when diagnosed in its early stages, throat cancer is treated through radiation therapy or surgery (removed via laser or robotic surgery). In the intermediate phase, the disease is treated with chemotherapy and radiation therapy or surgery. In advanced stages, the treatment consists of surgery followed by radiation therapy and chemotherapy. By Jairo Rodrigues / Journalist

  • "Understanding how Alzheimer's affects the brain can help in the search for more effective treatments," says neurosurgeon

    Photos: Luiz Mendes (Vugulu) It is estimated that 50 million people worldwide suffer from dementia (a group of brain disorders that cause the loss of intellectual and social abilities), making discussions about Alzheimer's disease a public health issue. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), Alzheimer's accounts for nearly 70% of dementia cases. In Brazil, the situation is particularly challenging, as the number of people living with dementia is expected to triple by 2050, according to a report by the organization. Neurosurgeon Dr. Cesar Cimonari, a specialist in the treatment of brain, pain, and spinal disorders, states that Alzheimer's is a complex condition affecting millions of people worldwide. "Understanding how it affects the brain can aid in the search for more effective treatments. In the brain of a person with Alzheimer's, there is an abnormal buildup of proteins called beta-amyloid plaques. These plaques accumulate between neurons, interfering with their communication and eventually leading to neuronal death." The neurosurgeon explains that another hallmark of Alzheimer's is the presence of neurofibrillary tangles, which are clusters of a protein called tau. "These tangles form inside neurons and disrupt their normal functioning, contributing to the loss of neural connections. As plaques and tangles accumulate, synapses—the connections between neurons—begin to deteriorate. This interferes with the brain's ability to transmit electrical signals and process information, resulting in symptoms like memory loss and difficulty in thinking." Cerebral Atrophy: Dr. Cesar notes that while Alzheimer's is a devastating disease, understanding how it affects the brain can help in the search for more effective treatments. "As the disease progresses, the brain of a person with Alzheimer's may begin to shrink or atrophy. This is caused by the progressive loss of brain cells and neural connections, affecting various regions of the brain responsible for memory, language, reasoning, and other cognitive functions." The doctor adds that as the disease progresses, the brain of a person with Alzheimer's may begin to shrink or atrophy. "This is caused by the progressive loss of brain cells and neural connections, affecting various regions of the brain responsible for memory, language, reasoning, and other cognitive functions." It is important to emphasize that while Alzheimer's may not have a cure, the earlier it is diagnosed, the better the treatment can be to slow the progression of the condition and alleviate symptoms, providing the patient with a better quality of life, which also brings relief to families and caregivers.

  • Do You Know These Styles? The Aesthetic Battle: Clean Girl vs. Messy Girl

    Image Disclosure Pinterest Fashion often reflects the spirit of a generation, and right now, two styles are dominating social media, each representing a distinct worldview: the Clean Girl and the Messy Girl. If you’re not familiar with these terms, get ready for a journey that goes beyond clothing and makeup, delving into the behavioral nuances of each aesthetic. Clean Girl: The Pursuit of Minimalist Perfection The Clean Girl represents the pinnacle of organization, self-care, and minimalism. Inspired by a lifestyle that values clarity, precision, and lightness, the Clean Girl aesthetic is about looking effortlessly impeccable. Think of glowing skin, subtle makeup, perfectly styled hair, and a wardrobe of neutral, classic pieces. Here, less is more: beauty lies in subtle details, harmony, and balance. This aesthetic isn't just about appearance; it also speaks to a mindset that seeks order amid the modern chaos. The Clean Girl is disciplined, goal-oriented, and projects an image of success and tranquility. It’s a style for those who value skincare routines, meticulous self-care, and an organized lifestyle. Messy Girl: The Rebellion of Organized Chaos On the other end of the spectrum, we find the Messy Girl, a movement that directly counters the perfection of the Clean Girl. Inspired by the 90s grunge movement, the Messy Girl celebrates chaos, imperfection, and authenticity. She rejects conventions, opting for a carefree, disheveled look that reflects a free and untamed personality. While the Clean Girl seeks perfection, the Messy Girl embraces chaos. She chooses comfort over conventional aesthetics, sporting messy hair, smudged makeup, and oversized clothing. Her nights are spent dancing without concern for the consequences, and the dark circles under her eyes the next day are worn with pride. For the Messy Girl, beauty lies in authenticity and the rejection of social norms. Reflections on Fashion and Identity But what do these styles really mean? Both the Clean Girl and the Messy Girl go beyond appearance; they are manifestations of how we see ourselves and how we want to be seen. Each of these aesthetics invites us to reflect on our own choices: are we seeking order or chaos? Perfection or authenticity? However, as these styles gain popularity on social media, the question arises: do they remain authentic or become just another trend to follow? Fashion, after all, should be an expression of who we are, not just a reproduction of a viral aesthetic. Whether Clean or Messy, the most important thing is that your style reflects your personality and authenticity. So, which of these styles resonates more with you? Whether you're a Clean Girl or a Messy Girl, what really matters is staying true to yourself. After all, in fashion and in life, authenticity is always the best accessory.
