High Jewelry Signature Collection Lion Gabrielle Chanel was born under the sign of Leo, her birthdate August 19, 1883. Like the lion, Mademoiselle was majestic, instinctive, radiant, powerful and fiercely protective of the things that were hers.

LION BROOCH A profusion of white diamonds creates a handsome frontal lion, while carefully calculated volumes ensure the most flattering portrait. Handcrafted in 18K white gold*, this High Jewelry brooch represents Leo, Mademoiselle’s zodiac sign. *White gold plated with thin layer of Rhodium for color.

HP MAGAZINE

In 1919, Gabrielle Chanel fled Paris to Venice, the city of the lion, devastated by the loss of her great love, Boy Capel. While there, under the watchful eye of the Lion of Venice, Coco found new inspiration and the courage to go on.

LION RING The ring's majestic pavé-diamond lion, handcrafted in 18K white gold*, stands boldly upon the summit of an internally flawless, custom 5.28-carat Marquise-cut diamond of radiant and staggering beauty. *White gold plated with thin layer of Rhodium for color.

HP MAGAZINE

“I’M A LEO AND LIKE HIM, I SHOW MY CLAWS TO PROTECT MYSELF, BUT, BELIEVE ME, I SUFFER MORE BY CLAWING THAN BEING CLAWED.”

Throughout her life, Mademoiselle always kept figures of lions, the emblem that would be engraved upon the buttons of tweed suits.

Forever protecting Mademoiselle, the lion is the spirit of CHANEL High Jewelry.

LION NECKLACE A transformable lion necklace begins with a river of diamonds encircling the neck, creating a classic style when worn on its own.

The detachable lion is added for a longer, bolder necklace, the Leo sign emblazoned with diamonds, amidst a constellation of pear­cut, oval­cut and cushion­cut diamonds and handcrafted in 18K white gold*. *White gold plated with thin layer of Rhodium for color.

A DAY WITH TIFFANY CHAMPAGNE

HP MAGAZINE

Hi, could you start by telling us a bit about yourself?

I am a Published Cover-Model and a Card-Carrying actress. You might have recognized me from print, videos, or film. I am originally from NYC, where I grew up and started modelling Junior Fashion. Since I was friends with several ladies in private schools, who were models. I went to see their modelling agent one time.

And to my surprise, she took me on for modelling, and I was ecstatic.

But my parents weren't too happy. Nonetheless, I was modelling and enjoying it. It was a very creative and sophisticated life more than an average sixteen-year-old would experience. For example, the make-up artist would do heavier eye make-up for the shoot. So when I would come home from the shoot, I would wipe it all over my mother's white towels, and she was agitated and mad at me. My girlfriends frequented very sophisticated clubs and went shopping for designer clothes. I learned all about style, modelling, and how to be refined.

15

INTERVIEW

I had the best time of my life.

I love New York City, but now I am used to Hollywood. However, I enjoy both coasts equally well.

Tell us about your journey so far?

After modelling in NYC, my folks moved to Los Angeles, I continued my modelling here with an agency, and then Playboy Models signed me on were for print and videos. I enjoyed going to the Playboy Mansion, and everyone was friendly to me there.

How would you describe your style?

I have a more glamorous style with a sexy edge. But I also have secretarial pieces in my wardrobe and sporty outfits.

I also have a lot of sexy lingerie pieces from Agent Provocateur and Honey Birdette as well as Victoria Secrets because I love glamour lingerie— bikinis and swimwear. I wear fashion designer dresses from Herve Leger and Azzedine Alia that show off my figure.

HP

HP MAGAZINE

Tell me about your experience as a model.

Because I am an exhibitionist, I love modelling. I modelled different genres. I started with a junior look, then an ingenue, and now I am mainly doing glamour, lingerie, and some fashion.

When I do shoots, I feel very sexy when I get attention from men, and I am appreciated. I love it when men say they like my look and tell me I am sexy.

These are some of my projects: Eclair Magazine (Cover) 7SINS Magazine (Cover) Lavishly Magazine (Cover ) S&G Magazine (Cover) Stare Magazine (Cover) Flirt Magazine (Feature) Stunning Beauty Magazine (Feature) Dreamvixens Magazine Pierre Magazine (Cover).

INTERVIEW

How has your life changed since then?

I get up early for the shoots, and I have to be well-rested and focused on doing the job. Also, when I am on a movie set, I have to be at the studio very early and know my lines. It looks glamorous, but it's dedication and concentrating on the work.

How would you describe your talents to someone who doesn't get it?

I tell them that I am a creative person and enjoy modelling and acting.

It's a career I love because I am an exhibitionist. I love when photographers take photos of me, and I get in the mood to make love to the camera. Also, I am a people person and love getting to know everyone and having a great time. So I take my time to get the assignment perfect.

2020 has been the strangest of years. How did you find lockdown? Any lessons or discoveries?

HP

HP MAGAZINE

It was a lonely time. But I found it's best to use time productively.

I caught up on certain errands and tasks. I made new friends and explored new interests.

Who has been some of your favourite collaborators so far in the industry?

I have shot with famous photographers who are fabulous.

Barry Druxman shot these photos of me for this magazine. He's a famous Hollywood Photographer.

I also worked with Julian Wilde, Mario Casilli, Will Santillo, and others. My make-up artist is usually Victoria Rubell in Hollywood, but I worked with many others, such as Vincent Longo and Claudio Riaz.

What first piqued your interest in fashion and modelling?

I love style and design and discovering the latest trends for the season. I love everything beautiful. Such as designer clothes, expensive jewellery, or a great piece of furniture. I love Art and love shopping for expensive clothes.

19

INTERVIEW

What is the biggest highlight of your career so far?

Being on Magazine Covers, I love it. Due to the many photoshoots which require being on location, I love to travel. Discovering diverse cultures. I meet inspiring people. I am a people person and love pleasing people and making them happy. I am in a very positive space currently.

Do you have a favourite designer?

I adore anything Chanel and also Herve Leger and Alaia. For sportier times I wear Balenciaga or Gucci.

What is your greatest strength?

I know my craft and know-how to pose for different shoots. I have taken up years of acting classes from famous coaches. But for every project, I enjoy getting to know the people around me, making everyone feel at ease.

I also have a sense of humour which helps with every project I do, as I give it my all. But also enjoy it when it's well done.

It's a matter of adopting

everyone around you and spreading happiness.

What are your goals as a model?

To enjoy modelling and want to do as many projects as I can.

Because I love it so much and those around me.

A Breakdown Of Our New Breakthrough Cleanser

HP MAGAZINE

BEAUTY

The cleansing step in your skincare routine is not only the first step, but arguably the most important. Clean skin is happy skin; and it creates a blank canvas for the rest of your regimen. What’s tricky about cleansers, though, is that they have a bad rep of being harsh and drying in order to achieve that deep-cleansing effect. At Biossance, harsh formulas are not part of our M.O., so we decided to master the cleanse to provide a product that achieves the pore clarifying benefits we all search for, while also revealing hydrated and healthy skin.

We know what you’re thinking—isn’t that what our Squalane + Tea Tree Cleansing Gel achieved? We know how much you all love that formula, but that’s why you have to trust us when we say we’ve created something even better. As an innovative beauty brand constantly re-evaluating our products and formulas to provide the best in clean skincare for our customers, so meet our Squalane + Amino Aloe Gentle Cleanser, your new go-to formula for clean, happy skin. We think it’s the best clean cleanser ever.

It’s like a clean slate for your skin; a fresh start. It couples the deep porecleansing and skin-balancing benefits of our beloved Tea Tree Cleanser with a trio of skin-loving antioxidants including amino acid, aloe vera, and moringa to also soothe, calm, and protect. It’s a universal cleanser that’s not only effective at keeping your face clean, but our oceans clean as well. Believe us when we say it’s everything you’ve ever wanted and more for the first step of your routine.

Heathy Skin, Healthy Oceans Ingredients are important to us and to the well-being of our oceans. Every beauty product starts and ends in the environment—from where the ingredients are sourced to where it goes when it rinses away. That’s why we paid close attention to what we used to formulate our new breakthrough. It was important to create something that not only delivered powerful results, but also stayed true to our commitment to our oceans.

Many cleansers contain detergents that can linger even after wastewater is treated, but our new Squalane + Amino Aloe Gentle Cleanser is different. It’s formulated with pure, sustainable ingredients from the lab that allow water to return to the source in a pristine state. Your skin stays fresh, restored, and purified. And our oceans stay healthy, unpolluted, and thriving.

BEAUTY

The powerhouse ingredients packed in this dirt-fighting, hydrating gel cleanser are truly what make the formula so special. Clean, hydrating, and effective ingredients to give you the best deep cleanse for your skin: Amino acid complex dissolves makeup and conditions Organic aloe vera leaf juice gently hydrates, calms, and refreshes Moringa extract purifies and dislodges impurities and environmental pollutants Squalane leaves skin soft, supple, and hydrated

The Ultimate One-Step Cleanser What exactly do we mean when we say we’ve mastered the cleanse? We mean our new breakthrough checks all the boxes—it’s the ultimate one-step cleanser. Use it to break up debris, dirt, and makeup, remove remnants of environmental pollution, and uplift and invigorate the skin with its gentle foam texture and a spa-like scent. How do you incorporate it into your routine? As the cleanser and the first step in your routine, mix a small amount with warm water and work it into a lather. Massage it onto your face, and then rinse it with water to reveal a complexion that’s happy and clean.

Plans for $400-billion new city in the American desert unveiled

ARCHITECTURE

The cleanliness of Tokyo, the diversity of New York and the social services of Stockholm: Billionaire Marc Lore has outlined his vision for a 5-millionperson "new city in America" and appointed a world-famous architect to design it. Now, he just needs somewhere to build it -- and $400 billion in funding.

The former Walmart executive last week unveiled plans for Telosa, a sustainable metropolis that he hopes to create, from scratch, in the American desert. The ambitious 150,000-acre proposal promises ecofriendly architecture, sustainable energy production and a purportedly drought-resistant water system. A so-called "15-minute city design" will allow residents to access their workplaces, schools and amenities within a quarter-hour commute of their homes.

Although planners are still scouting for locations, possible targets include Nevada, Utah, Idaho, Arizona, Texas and the Appalachian region, according to the project's official website. The announcement was accompanied by a series of digital renderings by Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG), the architecture firm hired to bring Lore's utopian dream to life. The images show residential buildings covered with greenery and imagined residents enjoying abundant open space. With fossil-fuel-powered vehicles banned in the city, autonomous vehicles are pictured traveling down sun-lit streets alongside scooters and pedestrians.

Another image depicts a proposed skyscraper, dubbed Equitism Tower, which is described as "a beacon for the city." The building features elevated water storage, aeroponic farms and an energy-producing photovoltaic roof that allow it to "share and distribute all it produces."

The first phase of construction, which would accommodate 50,000 residents across 1,500 acres, comes with an estimated cost of $25 billion.

The whole project would be expected to exceed $400 billion, with the city reaching its target population of 5 million within 40 years.

ARCHITECTURE

Funding will come from "various sources," project organizers said, including private investors, philanthropists, federal and state grants, and economic development subsidies. Planners hope to approach state officials "very soon," with a view to welcoming the first residents by 2030.

In addition to innovative urban design, the project also promises transparent governance and what it calls a "new model for society." Taking its name from the ancient Greek word "telos" (a term used by the philosopher Aristotle to describe an inherent or higher purpose), the city would allow residents to "participate in the decision-making and budgeting process." A community endowment will meanwhile offer residents shared ownership of the land.

In a promotional video, Lore described his proposal as the "most open, most fair and most inclusive city in the world." Lore founded jet.com before selling it to Walmart and joining the retail giant as head of US e-commerce in 2016. He left the company earlier this year, saying that his retirement plans included working on a reality TV show, advising startups and building a "city of the future."

BIG's founder, Danish architect Bjarke Ingels, is meanwhile quoted as saying that Telosa "embodies the social and environmental care of Scandinavian culture, and the freedom and opportunity of a more American culture."

It is not the first new city being planned by Ingels' firm, which famously installed a ski slope on top of a Copenhagen power plant and has codesigned Google's new headquarters in London and California. In January 2020, Japanese carmaker Toyota revealed that it had commissioned BIG to create a master plan for a new 2,000-person city in the foothills of Mount Fuji. Although significantly smaller than Telosa, the project, dubbed Woven City, promises autonomous vehicle testing, smart technology and robotassisted living.

Gloves Are Your Greatest Party Accessory This Season

FASHION

Gloves are a winter essential, but set aside the heat-tech pairs and consider those that serve the sole purpose of looking completely fabulous, because opera gloves are trending.

The Fashion Awards provided plenty of inspiration: Kristen McMenamy sported gloves that stopped just above her elbow; Priyanka Chopra, Elsa Hosk, Kosar Ali, Rina Sawayama and Addison Rae modelled cheerful pairs by Richard Quinn; Griff complemented her whimsical Simone Rocha dress with mesh gloves; while Winnie Harlow, Precious Lee and Alexa Chung did costume gloves like pros.

The spring/summer 2022 shows proved that gloves are going nowhere. Balenciaga presented a pair that nearly touched the models’ armpits (Kim Kardashian has been a champion of the brand’s gloves from previous seasons); Gucci featured short pairs in hot pink and long, fingerless leather iterations; Erdem showed demure lace styles; Moschino models looked pretty in kitsch pastels; and at Saint Laurent, they were colourful and adorned with chunky gold jewels.

Elfen Watches

ABOUT ELFEN A gentleman's choice of timepiece says as much about him as his Saville Row Suit. At ELFEN our aim is not just to create a watch but is to provide a unique experience to our wearers. ELFEN is India's first brand for premium wooden watches. All the watches have been made using 7 different types of natural wood namely Mahogany, Ebony, Pine, Oak, Zebra, Walnut wood and Sandalwood.

The brand was founded with a belief that beautiful watches can be made from wood - a renewable resource with a significant advantage over other commonly used materials.

We show the world how age-old craftsmanship can be used in modern-day products to form ethical and sustainable designs for the conscious yet stylish individual.

ELFEN

HOW DID IT ALL START? Back in 2018, i was working in a corporate job, and my co-founder had his own Fashion-Accessories store in Pune. We always used to discuss starting up with something niche and unique, something which can provide a lot of value to Indian consumers. We realised that the watch industry is saturated with very limited designs and patterns, especially in India. All the usual brands were offering similar-looking stainless steel designs in watches, which are not only quite heavy on your wrist, but also not that versatile for every occasion.

It's then when we came up with the idea of wooden watches. We thought why not try creating a watch from a renewable resource such as wood. Not only did the watches came out to be super lightweight, they were also the quite strong inbuilt quality and durability. We thought to take it big and take it to the entire Indian and global market and that's when the idea of ELFEN was born. We started operations on 5th August 2019, and by taking continuous feedback from our customers and working on those to improve our processes and end-product, we have been successfully able to create a product that is both supreme in quality and high on style quotient.

THE HURDLES? Well, the main challenge was to create that end product. With none of us having a background in production and manufacturing line, we had to go through a lot of failed attempts and iterations to finally develop our first successful prototype. It was a watch made of Zebrawood, and we are proud of the fact that we are a fully homegrown brand. The other major challenge was to take this completely new watch segment to the Indian market. We were very sceptical, how it will be viewed by the consumers and would they be actually receptive to the idea of a wooden watch?

One thing that kept our belief high was the fact that everyone that we hadshown the watch to, absolutely loved it.

HP MAGAZINE

70

We just had to position ourselves in a right and aspirational way to the Indian consumers. One thing we had very clear in our mind from the very first day, that we are not going to target every consumer in this country. We knew that our target customer will be a value-driven one who makes a purchase because he/she believes in that product, rather than buying something just because they are at a heavy discounted price. All our ad campaigns and social media strategies were devised to target that value-driven customer, and we saw some really great results. Till date, we are following the same notion of providing as much value to our consumers as possible for their purchase with us. Our packaging is one of the best in the industry, our product return rate is one of the lowest in the industry which clearly shows that despite all the hurdles we faced, we tried to learn from them and improve continuously.

TREE PLANTATION INITIATIVE Our mission has always been to provide as much value to the our consumers as possible. We decided to give people unique experiences by introducing something as unique as a wooden watch. The majority of our products are handmade, with an emphasis on quality at affordable prices. As a responsible and sustainable brand, we have always believed in giving more to mother nature than taking away from it. Keeping up with our core principles, for every purchase you make we plant a tree in your name. ELFEN has partnered with TreeNation whose focus is on reforestation and the reduction of the most pressing threats to the diversity of life on Earth. Every time you buy an ELFEN Wood Watch, a tree will be planted in your name! As soon as you place the order on our website and make the payment, you will receive an email from Tree-Nation, with the details of the tree planted in your name. You will be able to see all the details of the tree like its LIVE Google location, the farmer taking care of it, the crop that it will be a part of the harvest, etc. Along with this you will also receive a tree - plantation certificate over e-mail.

The link in the certificate will take you your tree with its details.

ELFEN

HOW ARE WE PROGRESSING?

We are glad to tell that we have been very well received by our customers and the indian market at large. Ours sales have been growing pretty well and most of our customers are repeat buyers. We provide custom Gift wrapping and messaging service, and lots of our customers prefer to gift it to someone everytime there is an occassion. We are growing at a very good pace, but our customer centric approach is something we would never want to compromise for growth.

FUTURE PLANS

Future seems very exciting. We are introducing 6 new designs as part of our new collection along with custom engraving services. Customers will be able to get their message or a picture engraved at the back of the watch. We are working on our packaging and are trying to create one of the best packaged brand in india. We are also planning to target global markets now like Europe and canada.

In fact We have already started shipping to USA and UK.
