  • Bloodletting at Getty

    Just in time for the company's 3rd quarter earnings report on Oct. 24, Getty Images is cutting staff this week.

London's Daily Mail reports that the city's mayor, Ken () Livingston is considering ending funding for fashion shows unless size-zero models are banned. This is just ridiculous.

  • Getting Ready for the Close Up

    In a small uptown studio once owned by Richard Avedon a sprightly young man in a button-down, a dress vest, jeans, and white tennis shoes is addressing a small crowd of New Yorkers in his endearing British accent.

    This is Suite A, Avedon's renovated studio at 75th and 1st, on Wednesday night, and the man is the well-known and loved portrait photographer Platon. Having recently released a retrospective book, Platon's Republic, he has come as the first photographer to lead what will hopefully be a regular slide show at the studio.
