The Best Dresses on the Red Carpet Claire Foy took home an Emmy for "The Crown." On the left, mounted in couture riding gear for a shoot with Vogue earlier this year; for the awards show, she wore white strapless Calvin Klein. Penélope Cruz fluttered in feathered Chanel Haute Couture, Tracee Ellis Ross went big, very big, in Valentino’s raspberry couture confection (next page). Poppy Delevingne dazzled in a fresh shade of mint in Giambattista Valli Haute Couture. Also opting for pastels were Vanessa Kirby and Alexis Bledel. Mandy Moore and Zazie Beetz were embellished and gorgeous. And then there were the ladies in darkly romantic black: chic, pretty, and a touch fearless all... Just like good TV these days.

One last link note that has nothing to do with left-handedness: If I owned one of these new link destros, I link would do something sacrilegious. I'd ditch the steel bracelet and throw it on a rubber tropic strap. This feels like the perfect GMT-Master II for that treatment. Put me in camp I like it.
Like many of us, he got into watches link through a connection to his family. "My uncle had – and this was a big deal for a Black man in the sixties – a Rolex. I remember he never talked about it. He wasn't ostentatious, but every once in a while, I would watch other people notice his timepiece and say, 'Hey man, that's link a link nice timepiece.' It wasn't a watch, it was a timepiece."
As is custom, the Vintage Team takes their pick from the bunch with Saori choosing an unexpected gem of an AP, Sean extolling on the icon that is the Rolex Submariner ref. 1680, and, finally, Rich brings a UG that exudes mid-century charm in every corner.
