Poeting Justice: 8 pages of Burberry



 

Androgyny, country life and military accents – Christopher Bailey’s latest collection for Burberry pays homage to dear old Blighty and Virginia Woolf’s Orlando.

Styling: Anson Lau
Make-up: Marian Woo
Hair: Jean Tong
Styling assistant: Jan Li
Models: Edwina P at Starzpeople, Youri at Primo Management Ltd and Natalia
Photography assistants: Quentin Pitingo, Aaron Kohler and Rafael Raya Cano
All outfits: Burberry

NOTES: 

A dream team behind the scenes and in front of the camera, this shoot with Burberry is just the dreamiest. 

It is really important to pull together a great team - and leave them the fk alone so they can create without pressure and Dino delivered. And how. Easily one of my favourite shoots in the past decade. 

Overbearing editors and publishers on a shoot - when they know little about the gig - has ruined many a shoot. Either you're helping or you're hurting and I noted while working with Dino - a hands off approach works best.

At Galaxy Macau with Ana R


Behind the scenes with Ana R; 

At Galaxy Macau with photographer Until Chan and HK's very own model-icious... Ana R. 



Ana Rivera, widely known as Ana R., is an international model, actress, and entrepreneur who established herself as a prominent figure in Hong Kong’s fashion industry. Born in Texas to a Korean mother and a Puerto Rican father, she began her modeling journey at the age of 13 after winning a talent contest in Orlando, Florida. Her career quickly took off, leading to international modeling opportunities in Canada and other countries and capitals worldwide.

Rivera moved to Hong Kong after opening a major runway show for Gucci. Her distinct look and strong professional presence rapidly made her one of the region’s most sought-after models, appearing in numerous campaigns for high-profile luxury brands, fashion magazines, and commercials over the decades.

Leveraging her extensive experience within the fashion industry, Rivera transitioned into talent management and business leadership by founding Model One, a top modeling agency based in Hong Kong. As the co-owner and director of Model One, she plays an active role in scouting, mentoring, and developing local and international models, helping shape the landscape of Asia's modeling sector.

In addition to her modeling and business endeavors, Rivera is married to Brad Garland and is a mother of two children, Maya and Ryan. Balancing the demands of managing an agency, public appearances, and family life, she continues to maintain Hong Kong as her permanent home base while remaining a key personality in the local entertainment and fashion scenes.

Car & Tech The Eight Dream Machines to Know: The Best cars of 2026... so far!


From a three-row Audi flagship to a hand-built Pagani built to mark its founder’s 70th birthday, here are the automotive launches worth your COE this season.

Singapore’s car market runs on a peculiar arithmetic. A Certificate of Entitlement can cost more than the car you’re actually buying, which means every purchase is, by definition, a considered one. It also means that when a marque unveils something genuinely new, that release will demand closer attention.

This season has delivered an unusually rich crop of debutantes: flagship SUVs from Germany, a Bushido-inspired one-off from Italy via Japan, a divisive electric Ferrari that sold out despite (or perhaps because of) the internet’s disapproval, and a Pagani built to celebrate its founder’s 70th year on earth. Here, a guide to what has caught our attention.

GQ Singapore: The Drinks That Are Defining 2026

So many reasons to celebrate – with these exceptional drops. 

 By P. Ramakrishnan 15 September 2026

Every August brings a fresh wave of “best of summer” press releases, most of which say the same thing in different fonts. But look past the marketing calendar and 2026 has quietly produced one of the more interesting runs of drinks news in years: a whisky maker willing to abandon her house style, a 208 year old Champagne maison finally admitting it had been hoarding a secret recipe, and a handful of grower Champagnes that Singapore’s more serious cellars have started rationing. Here is what belongs on your radar, and on your bar cart, before the year is out.

A Mechanical Jewel: Blancpain Ladybird Tribute to Betty Fiechter

Seventy years after Betty Fiechter built the world’s smallest round movement, Blancpain has reworked her Ladybird idea into a spherical mechanical jewel called Blancpain Lady B.

There is a version of watchmaking history that gets told and retold: complications, chronometers, the men who ran the great houses. Betty Fiechter rarely features in it, despite having done more than most to keep one of them afloat. In 1932, Frédéric Émile Blancpain died suddenly, ending two centuries of family leadership at the Villeret manufacture. With no heir willing to take over, Fiechter and commercial director André Léal borrowed heavily to buy the company. Swiss law at the time would not let a firm trade under the Blancpain name without a family member at its head, so the business became Rayville, a phonetic anagram of Villeret. Léal died just before the Second World War, leaving Fiechter alone at the helm of more than 200 employees, at a time when Swiss women could not yet vote.
