“She’s brought a ludicrously capacious bag,” Tom Wambsgans (Matthew Macfadyen) sniffed at the $2,890 Burberry tote on the shoulder of Greg Hirsch’s (Nicholas Braun) date. The worlds of high fashion, film, and TV have long influenced each other in a feedback cycle that creates, reflects, and responds to social trends and cultural attitudes. 2023 was the undeniable era of “quiet luxury,” an aesthetic that champions simplicity and subtlety over flashy designer branding.

By the time they made The Red Shoes (1948), Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger were major figures in the story of British cinema. Under the unique, joint credit of ‘written, directed and produced by’ – and with a talented team of regular collaborators by their side – they created an unrivalled series of bold and beautiful films that continue to influence contemporary fields of art, design, music and dance. The Red Shoes is often described as the zenith of their filmmaking.

From cancer genomic research to in-vitro fertilization to the polio vaccine — our modern world owes much of its scientific advancement to a story we should all know by now. In late 1951, Henrietta Lacks passed away from aggressive cervical cancer at age 31.

Take Your Child to Work Day is an excellent idea, but why, oh why is it held during the school year? One more day of classroom instruction is thereby lost.
