June 6 marked the one year anniversary of when I first began working out three times a week, every week. Quite an achievement, given that my relationship with physical fitness of any kind has always been a difficult one, having always been slight with little or no effort. There is a thought in our circles that you are either in business or you’re fit — said, of course, in jest — but the sub-text is that keeping fit takes an enormous amount of time and energy, and if you are running a successful business, you most likely do not have the time and energy that it takes to sculpt a perfect body. And perhaps there may be some truth to that.

IT HAS ONLY BEEN a little over one year and five months since Alessandro Michele was appointed the Creative Director at Gucci after over 12 years working behind the scenes at the Gucci design studio, and in that time, he has not only revitalized the 95-year-old Italian brand, thrilled both critics and the rest of the fashion world alike, but is also set to receive the International Award at the 2016 CFDA Awards in three days.
