Interview

How has men’s fashion changed over the past few decades and what challenges does the fashion industry face? We asked JAN MANGOLD, managing director at Windsor. We also talked about the size of his closet at home.

Stefan Buescher was appointed CEO of Porsche Lifestyle Group last summer, so if you want to know what makes the brand tick and what defines the Porsche way of life, he’s your man. We thought we’d go ask him in person.

A Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 and a somewhat surprising headline at first glance. But then it fits damn well. How did we come up with it? The owner explained it to us.

When it comes to brand experiences, especially in the luxury sector, people like to talk about the customer journey. But what exactly is this customer journey? A good person to ask is Matteo Atti. After all, his job is all about sending people on a journey – by private jet.

Volkswagen is a multi-brand group. Each brand is to have a unique appearance - and the respective design is to be given a holistic meaning. This was emphasised yesterday by Group Chairman Oliver Blume at the Volkswagen Group Design Night. We spoke exclusively with him and the Head of Group Design, Michael Mauer.

Happiness? You can force it. Through hard work, for example. Says Montez. The twenty-nine-year-old is not only one of the most successful songwriters in Germany at the moment, he’s also an entrepreneur passionately realizing new ideas.

AXEL MEISE, the founder and chief designer of lighting company Occhio, has a clear idea of what his lamps and lighting systems should achieve: they should make people feel good. The sixty-one-year-old’s definition of good design is just as simple: It should provide years of enjoyment.

Jude Law celebrates his 51st birthday today - and we congratulate him with a very good interview he recently gave us. He spoke openly about his personal happiness, the massive self-doubt that used to plague him and his goal of continuing to make the most of his opportunities.

Between the years is exactly the right time to reflect a little: on what you have achieved and what you want to achieve in the coming twelve months. We're happy to do so - and therefore look back on five highlights of our ramp year.

Fireworks for the senses. With a power unit. This Ferrari 512 BB Competizione as a Le Mans conversion is not user-friendly despite being road-legal. What's more, the driver seems irrelevant. And a passenger is a nuisance anyway. Which makes the car something very special. And so we leave the year 2023 behind us.

You’ve got to get up pretty early in the morning to top the likes of KYLIE MINOGUE. She’s been in the business for over three decades and has celebrated more than one “comeback” in her career – with the latest happening right at this very moment. For her, life is like surfing a wave: with ups and downs and quite a bit of paddling around. Did we mention what an incredibly nice person she is?

A careful approach doesn't work. The Countach slams into your consciousness. And always all of a sudden. You see it - and WOW! A bizarrely jagged silhouette like an apparition from another world. The perfect car for Feast of Fabulous Wild Men Day, which our friends in the USA brought to life at some point.

Porsche will be presenting the electrified Macan next Thursday. The switch away from the combustion engine was both a blessing and a challenge for the design team. The aim was to find the right balance between "quintessentially Porsche" and "innovative". Michael Mauer reveals how exactly this was achieved.

Conducting an interview with Christian Bale is a contradictory experience - and a way of gaining a good understanding of the Brit. Bale doesn't like such compulsory exercises - for reasons that he is happy to explain. On his 50th birthday, we remember a special conversation with the actor.
