Some call it tagging, some call it writing, still others call it bombing--it's all graffiti. Whether it's art or not is another matter, but it's undeniably illegal. Tony Silver and Henry Chalfant's historic PBS documentary Style Wars tracks the rise and fall of subway graffiti in New York in the late 1970s and early 1980s. At the peak of its popularity, graffiti was as much a part of B-boy culture as rapping, scratching, and breaking. The filmmakers present a sympathetic, but well-rounded portrait of their subject through extensive interviews with taggers--notably Seen, Kase, and Dondi--art collectors, transit authorities, and even Mayor Ed Koch, who would eventually put the hammer down. Along the way, they documented the burgeoning breakdance scene, with a focus on the world-famous Rock Steady Crew. The soundtrack features selections from Grandmaster Flash, the Treacherous Three, and other tagger-approved icons of old-school hip-hop. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Here’s Carmen, my Spring Into Style Fashionista with limbs spliced in from a playline Wonder Woman and MTM doll hands. I swapped out the legs by using hot water and it was a relatively easy mod.
I added in the forearms by cutting off the original forearms and drilling into the upper arm to accept the WW arm pegs. I then did the same with the wrists to give her wrist joints.
While I would love Mattel to make curvy bodies that are jointed I’m tired of waiting.

All the actors who’ve inhabited the role of James Bond have enjoyed the trappings of style—killing bad guys in Savile Row bespoke—but only one of them can truly be said to have style. (And no, we’re not talking about George Lazenby.) Sean Connery is still the yardstick by which all other Bonds are measured—the arched eyebrow, the dry wolfish smile. But we at GQ think it mostly has to do with the way he moved. It only looked effortless: Before he was cast in Dr. No, Connery was an ardent student of the Swedish movement teacher Yat Malmgren, whose book on body technique became Connery’s bible. That’s how the former bricklayer from a hardscrabble section of Edinburgh learned to walk with (in one observer’s memorable phrase) “the threatening grace of a panther on the prowl.” Read it as a gloss on his penchant for violence or his sexual prowess: It works both ways.
• The little things make the man. Notice the cufflinks and the pocket square. But also notice that they’re subdued—white handkerchief, understated links. And the suit, shirt, and tie are also subtle. Look chic, not like a mobster.
"The International Style" is an apt name for buildings of this type. I ran across this one in a totally undeveloped area of Tel Aviv - between a power plant and a military base, but buildings like it can be found all over the world. Here it would be considered a Bauhaus - it lacks color and decoration and its shapes are typical of the style.. But at the same time it has a softer and more romantic feel than the usual TA Bauhaus. I am not sure where the line should be drawn.
“Take Ivy,” originally published in Japan in 1965, presents candid photographs of collegiate style on American Ivy League universities captured in 1964, mostly at Brown, Dartmouth, and Princeton. The book was republished by powerHouse Books, Brooklyn, in 2010.
