Terry Richardson

My favorite irreverent photographer

Sammy Davis Jr.

Sophia Loren

Stunning beauty, a survivor's spirit and enduring devotion to her partner Ponti, are just a few of the qualities that make Loren so inspiring. When asked, after her husband's death, if she would ever marry again she replied

"It would be impossible to love anyone else."

Shown top with Ponti, an example of how she often perfectly blended masculine and feminine attributes before it was chic

Jefferson Hack

Publisher of the hipster bible, Dazed & Confused, and Editor in Chief of AnOther magazine, Hack reveals monthly to the British masses what it means to be dandy

Diane Kruger

Iris Apfel

"I was given three gifts at birth... a sense of humor, which I couldn't live without, a sense of style and a sense of curiosity."

Truman Capote

Brigitte Bardot

If Don Juan were a woman...

Tom Ford

David Bowie

"I always had a repulsive need to be something more than human."

-The Brilliantly Mad Bowie

Carine Roitfeld

Carine does it all... in heels

Benicio del Toro

Carlton Cole

Mark Ronson

Katharine Hepburn

The quintessential Born With It woman, she possessed an inherent, timeless style accentuated by a mien of confidence, honesty and charisma
