As a boy of 8, Pari Dukovic would pick up his camera, a gift from his father, and explore his native Istanbul. He learned to station himself on the street corners, hoping for just the right light to show off the city at its most shimmering. Soon enough, he was turning his lens on people.…

Marc Bohan, the longest-serving creative director at Christian Dior, who spent nearly 30 years spinning out classically attuned looks with a touch of whimsy that, however resplendent, were meant to be worn, not gazed at on mannequins or in fashion magazines, died on Wednesday in Châtillon-sur-Seine, France.

But the reasons for the slowdown — and its duration — are not well understood. Our article…
Había comprado un cubrecama de algodón de colores, una hamaca que colgó fuera entre los postes del toldo, una olla de peltre azul para que pudiéramos cocinar en la fogata de ladrillo y dos cuencos de peltre azul a juego.
