illustrator sarah ily back. in signed by side when celebrity chef twins cook up a storm. the biggest names in old couture showing off their spring collections in paris this week so what better way to start off our show than with one of the greatest of couture designers of his generation laura reese now his glamorous robes were worn by stars such as pardo grace kelly so feel around and elizabeth taylor well after his death in two thousand and three the fashion house changed hands with a luxury label is now relying on a young unconventional fashion designer to pick up where mr left off. was nick seemed similar ends second to al sheen for. the for the show this thirty three year old french design i was busy multitasking backstage. he prefers to put

the finishing touches on himself. yet as lost as you have it i'm a bit nervous but that's normal but i can say with a clear conscience that i gave it all i've got the need to pull the hand i have a clear vision that people will like or not pay me. simone's find his skills working for such a list could surely ase as shown full christiane to your and. then he turned to approach a porsche take loads for men under his own label he was appointed artistic director at a zorro last year breathe new life into the fashion house. these awards of all can. get experience too strong decades but then it got a bit musty with the various designers trying to revive the brand but it didn't work. now might seem is here if you don't hold your direction it's much more

interesting for investors to try to revive these illustrious houses of those events or create new brands out of nothing did nothing could have said look this is. the as our label turned fifty last year it was founded by telling design a lorises to build a celebrity following within a station defined by luxury and. i hope the constellation of stars warriors galton the one nine hundred seventy s. including jane birkin and still leader. supremely as our own wants to make women more beautiful stylish very feminine glamorous and extravagant community unlike my own style which is more stuff but i tried to combine the two which was very stimulating and a real challenge them all in some but i think the best you.

a perhaps more like rock which for young trained and wealthy fans men and women alike. but you build the feeling i wanted the stars for men and women not to differ wildly to be androgynous fictional and offered to do some still very glamorous fashion but obviously unisex. goal was to mix up the wardrobe. and for men's wear women's jackets and women to wear men's shirts. it's a topical concept but not a new one it's an open question whether similar ones will win over investors in a shorter amount of time. to deceive us and it's hard for a young designer to redefine a brand and to make it successful again people may think it's easy but it's not supposed to don't it takes time and today the fashion houses don't give their designers time to find themselves and their place. to form a unit with

a label so that it succeeds again. nowadays fashion houses switch designers to fast. or. maybe even exceed similar way ends meet style will help green is our road back to new heights of success at any rate he stands for a new generation of designers who could put on is after the show he put the crowd and enjoy the meet. and staying with fashion another famous name in the world of couture also didn't disappoint on the runway in paris plus elton john has made a big announcement those stories and more coming up and express. valentino turned out a tour de force of theatrical elegance at the paris old couture shows on wednesday p.-r. paolo pichel these collection featured feathers ruffled some pose and theatrical

to make it's how long it takes us to make an album now we're going to try to find new ideas but that's what the album is about still trying to find new ideas we have to balance between sounding like o.m.d. but still trying to do something new and interesting. yet to some it still sounds as if time has stood still. doesn't appear i listen to this band in my youth you know one can equal the early hits that's clear but these guys still rock boil solid. they've been great since the eighty's the new record is simply brilliant. paul humphreys and andy mccluskey were school friends who just wanted to play music they never dreamed o.m.d. would go down in music history l d was going to be one cult that one called subtly

in one nine hundred seventy eight we and eric slip in the pool we happened for joy division and that was office cake and it was only ever going to be one concert and it was just it was that's why we picked the stupid name again massa did not say i'm . a little did they know thirty years later they're thirteen studio album the punishment of luxury has met with critical success and they'll be touring with it till october. i. in our series this week we're meeting up with successful twins and one of the things that all these identical twins seem to have in common is that no matter what branch of the working in one is the creative force and the other has a knack for the more practical side of the business while the boxy twins from belgium are no different they're professional chefs and with them instead of too

many cooks spoiling the broth their two sets of hands are better than one. sauteed lobster scallops with tiny butter gourmet dishes created by top chefs in the comfort of your home christophe and stephan boxee operate belgium's most exclusive catering service since their childhood the two brothers have been standing side by side at the stove two chefs one shared taste experience. not a surprise really considering the men are identical twins. the looks of souls which normally i hate to be honest we make it all our way. it's very intense it's very intense but has no burger to taste we don't play it like that on the wing the sos and i like it very and we love you very of course say

that's all you have show a lot of taste. this is where the boxy twins unusual dishes are created on the outskirts of ghent in northern belgium the modern design of their kitchen bears testimony to their french and for experimentation. rebounding and it got this in its journal real well known that will remember there was a bit too much purity. of gold you know just run. today the boxes are trying out a new appetizer made with the dried leak chervil root puree and nk they know down each new creation with all the ingredients down to the very last gram the division of labor is also clear. stefan is creative. while christoph is pragmatic his brother's creativity sometimes makes him nervous but

they work very well together as a team. in the other kids. and that has something in. my life. was this. to have a problem and then have to call my brother divined what i know and i can follow his thoughts and that's why we're twins i mean that's the over the event it's in between that that. that's the whole thing in between is that i can often. guess what you're thinking and what you're doing. the twins have made a name for themselves with their unique creations they've written several cookbooks and even have their own t.v. show. in twenty fifteen they toured through brussels with a hidden camera sampling restaurant fare and doing what they like doing best eating chatting arguing then eating again this twin pack is

a marketing dream too for the price of one of the boxes were born in one thousand nine hundred sixty one and from the outset they were inseparable they even discovered their passion for cooking together you know when know when people play with cars and. legal and whatever you can imagine and soldiers and things like that we played the parts. they opened their first restaurant at the age of twenty one for many it was too expensive and a bit too different and crowds stayed away but the twins stuck together giving each other more all support and refusing to give up. their persistence paid off with a mission on star. they gave up their restaurant on long time ago and switched to catering instead tonight they're cooking for small event but sometimes they provide food for up to two thousand people and even after thirty years of the stone they're still worried

about whether their guests will like their food. or still have it every time and three to feel really contentious a little bit. i've always tried to make food in the troop people feel comfortable and happy to go but i think being at the v.a. when eating is a big family is having. after dinner it's time to clean up even tough cooks can't avoid that but it's not so much more if they do it together. and that's where i'd say triplets come in handy and with that it is time to say goodbye well don't forget to check out our website to see the reports again as always and thanks for tuning in and we're seeing again tomorrow. on the next edition of your own max an open air hotel with bunker service concept artist frank patrick have shot to fame with ideas like their zero star hotel the
