  + stars: | 2024-03-03 | by ( Vanessa Friedman | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
I was thinking about that a lot over the weekend, in part because of the designers here who, like Ms. Apfel, have built empires (or at least small fiefs) on a willingness to go their own way — Rick Owens, Yohji Yamamoto. Designers with a deep understanding of the rules and history of fashion and an equally powerful ability to rewrite both, and to imagine a different world. One whose uniforms can look bizarre and outrageous, but which create a sense of thrilling possibility: clothes like permission slips to think out of the box. And also because in Seán McGirr’s debut at Alexander McQueen, a house that once did all of the above, it got so very garbled.

Celine van HeelCNN —He’s louche and sun-kissed, effortlessly cool and 91 years old. Today, with a sizable social media following and major campaigns for Zara and adidas under his belt, The Spanish King is one of the oldest working models in Europe. Celine van Heel began photographing her grandfather while staying with him during Covid-19 lockdowns. “His look, the way he looks at the camera — it’s simple, but it really defines him,” van Heel said of the image. Van Heel believes her grandfather is the perfect example of why no one should feel the need to act their age.
