CHRISTIAN LACROIX ON FASHION
Written by Saillard, Olivier
This is not a retrospective, but my own look at the costume collections of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, from which I chose pieces from all eras, some never before exhibited.

MOST BEAUTIFUL VILLAGES OF PROVENCE
Written by Jacobs, Michael
Provence is a land apart, a territory of outstanding beauty and distinction that has fascinated outsiders since earliest times. The Greeks, the Romans, the barbarians of the North, and the Moors have all left their traces in its villages, from the Luberon to the Alpes-Maritimes.
MOST BEAUTIFUL VILLAGES OF GREECE
Written by Ottaway, Mark
From the terra cotta and ocher of the Ionian Islands to the brilliant blues and whites of the Aegean, the villages of Greece and its islands are incomparable. The variety of village life and buildings springs from a multitude of histories and influences, yet these towns are all, in their separate ways, quintessentially Greek.
