T
his year, we were a proud nation as London
played host to one of the most exciting,
anticipated and auspicious events of the
year – the 2012 London Olympics and Paralympic
Games. As we watched our countrymen and
women compete, we proudly cheered Team GB on
as they notched up a total of 65 medals, more than
what was achieved at the Beijing Games in 2008.
Hopefully, our wonderful athletes will be able to
surpass that number at the Rio Games in 2016 – let’s
keep our fingers crossed.
The wonderful and delightful Nelly Furtado made
her way back to the charts with ‘Big Hoops (The
Bigger The Better) earlier this year after a short and
much needed break. We welcome Nelly’s return and
look back at her music career that first got us hooked
on the catchy debut single, ‘I’m Like A Bird’ in 2001
and see how her music has evolved over the years,
shaped her style and her voice with collaborations
with the talented Timbaland and other producers.
Once again, we applaud the fashion graduates that
showcased their designs at Graduate Fashion Week
earlier this year, and get a glimpse of the inspirations
behind the collection of five Istituto Marangoni
graduates. We also ask the question, where do the
graduates go from here, once the show is over?
As always, we bring you our catwalk report of the
latest and hottest designer collections at London
Fashion Week, provided by our online fashion
correspondent and blogger, Stacy-Jayne Archer.

mood with partying themes in cities around the world,
including celebration of the 2012 Olympic Games. And

newhero, the Vanquish and get excited at Brands Hatch
Grand Prix as racing cars old and new hits the tracks.
