When you've been encouraged to stay active while sheltering in place during a pandemic, you may turn into Kevin McCallister...

My staircase is keeping me occupied...

Safety first!

Backstage after Stella McCartney’s show at Paris Fashion Week on Monday, the designer posed for photographs with ‘models’ wearing fuzzy animal mascot suits. They’d walked in the catwalk finale - think Tony the Tiger, but swap his signature bandana scarf for a handbag. There was a crocodile carrying a crocodile bag, a rabbit swinging a shearling one - Stella’s latest, all animal-product-free of course, as she famously doesn’t use the real stuff. 

reevaluate how they do business. Do fashion houses really need to produce eight-plus collections a year? With far-flung shows that are good for Instagram, terrible for attendees’ carbon consciences?
