Giorgio Armani made this page’s top billing last week following a nearly 4000-word portrait in the Wall Street Journal, but today makes a splash for considerably fewer words, 140 characters’s worth in fact. Armani is set to air live discussions of timely fashion topics on Twitter beginning this Friday at the legendary Italian designer’s “One Night in Beijing” event. The opening live-talk will feature amongst others Vogue China editor Angelica Cheung. All discussions will of course be hashtagged under #ArmaniTweetTalks. [WWD]
Festival de Cannes 2012 concluded Sunday evening in France with Austrian filmmaker Michael Haneke’s Amour claiming the Palme d’Or. Haneke also took top honor in 2009 for his film The White Ribbon, thereby joining just five other directors to have won the prize twice. Amour tells the story of an elderly Parisian couple played by Jean-Louis Trintignant and Emmanuelle Riva who are slowly preparing for death. [Guardian]
