  • Work and plays: Meet Richard Bean, Britain’s most successful contemporary playwright

    July 2, 2015

    When Richard Bean’s One Man, Two Guvnors embarked on its first UK tour, every morning the dramatist would email James Corden (the lead) with tweaks and extra lines tailored to whatever audience he was facing that evening. Oh, you’re in Birmingham, swap line X with line Y. Leeds? Make sure you say Z. This tells [...]

  • It’s okay to forget the rings on your wedding day – just grab one of these extra special watches to celebrate instead

    July 2, 2015

    Among the seemingly limitless array of judgment calls that wedding planning involves (I’ve been learning this first hand over the past few months), the choice of rings seems relatively straightforward. Life slips into a mysterious parallel reality where canapé volumes, seating arrangements and – God help us – the merits of different shades of the [...]

  • Max Büsser’s 10th anniversary limited edition timepiece is a petrolhead’s dream

    July 2, 2015

    It’s 10 years since one of Switzerland’s most creative horological brains, Maximilian Büsser, set up his “Max Büsser & Friends” brand, with the intention of working collaboratively with the finest watchmaking talents to create the most unusual, highly-specified timepieces. This one is styled around 1970s digital driving watches, in which time was shown at the [...]

  • Summer watches: Don’t be fooled by these brightly coloured stunners; there’s some serious horological clout here

    July 2, 2015

    Summer: that time when every magazine lightens its pages with vibrant yellows, azure blues and that indefinable shade of pink that only surfaces between June and August (somewhere between “old lady” coral and Legally Blonde fuchsia). I thought I’d join the club. My esteemed peers and I sometimes have a tendency to get bogged down [...]

  • Head back in time to the bowling alleys of 1950s America for some retro style

    July 2, 2015

    Photography: Packard Stevens Styling: Ozzy Shah   Joe: Markus Lupfer jumper, £330, and trousers, £285, both markuslupfer.com Lizzy: Marco De Vincenzo top, £760, liberty.co.uk; Just Cavalli trousers, £320, harrods.com; Kate Spade New York rings, £55 and £80, and bracelet, £100, both katespade.co.uk   Pinko top, £183, pinko.it; Mikimoto necklace, £2,300, mikimoto.co.uk   Lizzie: YMC top, [...]

  • The Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale is an idiosyncratic beast but spend some time with it and you may just fall in love

    July 2, 2015

    The Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale is a mysterious beast, alluring and confounding in almost equal measure. The “Stradale” tag indicates it’s a road-going version of a racecar; a lean, focused, road warrior – which it most certainly is – but it’s also got two rather roomy seats in the back. And don’t let the name [...]

  • La Dolce Vino: A visit to Italy reminds me that there’s more to Tuscan wine than hype

    July 2, 2015

    I had a long weekend recently in Florence, cautiously reacquainting myself with the pleasures and pitfalls of Tuscan wine – and came away feeling that I’ve been too timid about the region for too long. With good reason, I might add. I have drunk more duff bottles of wine from Italy than any other nation [...]

  • Fifty scents: Richard E Grant on being led by his nose, speaking to peacocks and watching his neighbours at it

    June 4, 2015

    “Two blokes meet in a staff ante-room in the Hurlingham Club. It’s a s***hole. It’s 4pm on a Thursday afternoon. He’s wearing a black three-piece suit and a white shirt. I’m wearing a grey blazer, jeans and sneakers. We begin talking at 4.05pm.’” This is how Richard E Grant says I should start this interview. [...]

  • World wide: New exhibition offers a rare glimpse of Alighiero Boetti, a true 20th century maverick

    June 4, 2015

    Alighiero Boetti 1989 embroidery on fabric, 103 x 107.5 cm, courtesy of the Mazzoleni London   Alighiero Boetti (1940-94) is a refreshing antidote to all the things “conceptual artist” has come to connote: sterility, aloofness, opaque jargon that says too much to say anything at all. While his work is complex and its meaning elusive, [...]

  • Beyond memory: Tomoko Yoneda’s first UK solo exhibition in 10 years

    June 4, 2015

    Nothing in the zen-like spaces photographed by Tomoko Yoneda indicates the destruction that once reigned in them, but the titles offer a clue. In Lovers After the Thaw (pictured), a couple embrace in a swimming pool in post-Cold War Hungary. In Sniper View, a nondescript city-scape is injected with a sense of danger when you [...]
