Edited by Jessica Lapidos
In a nasty case of the ex-fiancé’s wily new grilfriend, the crazy bitch stabbed her man’s ex in the chest. Repeatedly. After keying her car. Meanwhile, if she was going to kill her, what was the point of keying her car? But looks like the knife wasn’t quite long enough to cause damage to any major organs.

Designer Daily: 10A Suspender Trousers Company
Edited by Jessica Lapidos
The name 10A Suspender Trousers Company is quite literal, like antiquated tailoring shops of eras past. What started as a small tailor workshop called AAAAAAAAAA™ between Daria Dazzan and Matteo Cibic, making 10 one-of-a-kind suspender trousers per month, two years later has become a full collection in a range of fabrics and sizes under the full name. With Daria’s experience under Veronique Branquinho and Hussein Chalayan, and Matteo’s expertise in product and art design, the men’s brand is concisely crisp and extremely well made.
