Thirty Days…

Up, up and away: Elizabeth Haidle's beautiful illustration for aerostation, one of the hundred entries in "Encyclopedia of the Exquisite," which launches in one short month.

In just thirty days—November 2—Encyclopedia of the Exquisite will hit bookshelves all over. Besides the big book shops, amazon.com, etc., John Derian in New York will sell Encyclopedia as will Marc Jacobs‘ BookMarc.  To say that I’m excited is an understatement. And along those lines, please see this month’s Vogue, where Mark Holgate mentions the book, complete with a pretty photo on page . Off to a good start, no?

I hope you won’t mind this rather non-poetic update. Whatever poetry I can muster is being posted here right now—live from Paris until the end of fashion week.
