As excited as we get watching the collections, the fun really starts when we begin translating the themes to our pages. First stop: Los Angeles, to showcase the season’s tweed (“Boss Tweed,” p. 344), which throws off its polite professor’sblazer rep for some punk attitude.

Y’all do a wonderful job, and I look forward to the next issue! —Suzanne Anderson, Atmore, AL RISE AND SHINE Thank you for “Say It Loud!” on iTunes Beats Music head of global consumer marketing Bozoma Saint John. To read about a strong African-American woman who started from nothing to rise to the top in corporate America was a pleasure. She is a great example of taking risks, staying true to your style and personality, and focusing on what you want to make it happen.
