Big Bantjes spider on my desk!
A few years back the incredible Marian Bantjes sent me this wonderful Hallowe’en poster. Earlier the same year, I had put her work in an exhibition.
Marian’s post on heraldry is one of my favs. And check out her 10th Anniversary cover for GQ Italia, ’10 designers, 10 covers . . . 10 years of men, stories, adventures and style.’
Happy Hallowe’en!

And this over-the-top cookbook – which features funky recipes from the best restaurants in the world (at the time) – is a testament to his love of good food. [Read more →]
