Agenda: Paule Ka; Edie Campbell; Crossfire Hurricane; The Master and Margarita
Fashion: You have to hand it to 'em
French brand Paule Ka and its founder Serge Cajfinger are having a bit of a moment – not only has the Duchess of Cambridge been spotted in one of the label's chic skirt suits, but this week sees the opening of its latest store on Mayfair's hip epicentre Mount Street. Expect feminine luxury and Gallic chic topped off with an injection of modernism and mayhem.
Opens Tuesday, London W1, pauleka.com
Face to watch: Edie Campbell
She's worked on campaigns for Stella McCartney, Marc Jacobs and Burberry, all while "doing a Lily Cole" and juggling her modelling career with a degree in Art History at the Courtauld Institute. We predict huge things on graduation.
Lexpionage: Shoepidity, *.
The moment you see ridiculously OTT footwear that will likely not only cripple the wearer but (even worse) make them look like Lady Gaga – and yet against all reason still really want a pair yourself.
