SUMMERTIME IN PRAGUE

Shadow Life

Vangelis Paterakis was born and brought up in Piraeus, Greece.

From the very beginning of his professional path he became a close collaborator of big advertising companies, editorial houses and magazines.

At an early date his photographs began getting published in numerous Greek magazines, including several covers. On the international front his work also began appearing in various printouts abroad such as the Wallpaper, the Architectural Digest, the Andrew Martin-Interior Design Review and many others.

Vangelis’ photographs have also been figuring in the pages and covers of books of both Greek and Foreign publications. These books range from architectural guides to decoration as well as cook books.
His studio collaborates with magazines such as: Maison and Decoration, Casa Vogue, Vogue, Status, House Life and Style, Real Simple, In Style, Marriage, Maison Figaro, Elle Deco, House and Garden, Viva Casa, EYZHN, BHMagazino, Olive, Fooding, and many others.

Vangelis’ main professional activity revolves around photo shoots of hotel spaces in Greece, on the mainland as well as on the islands. Some of these hotels are the Classical Hotels, Life Gallery, Periscope, Vedema, Rhodes Palace and Semiramis to name a few. Abroad Vangelis has done work for hotels such as Hilton Worldwide and Aman Resorts. Nonetheless, Vangelis also extends his portfolio to photo shoots of Food and Travel.

In the same way that Vangelis’ travels to Cuba and Japan became his source of inspiration and reason for his first personal painting in photography exhibition titled “Virtual World” in November 2006, the familiar images of people in motion portrayed in photographs taken then led him to his second personal photograph exhibition entitled “Shadows” in May 2008.

Besides his two personal exhibitions, in July 2007 Vangelis also participated in an ensemble exhibition on the island of Paros, purely focused on painting this time. Also, his work on images of foods entitled “fork D-tales” was presented at the Sani Resort hotel in Chalkidiki, Greece at the Annual Gastronomy Festival of May 2008 and recently, in December 2008, he was chosen among several Greek photographers to participate in the exhibition “Spira” organized by Flocafe S.A Greece.

Zimmerli

THE WORLD'S FINEST UNDERWEAR
Zimmerli
of Switzerland
Since 1871, Zimmerli of Switzerland has been producing Swiss underwear to meet the highest requirements. Natural fibres, comfortable cuts and careful production ensure the proverbial good feeling that has been associated with Zimmerli’s reputation for producing “the world‘s finest underwear.

A Zimmerli classic since the 1930s. The finest long twisted-yarn gives Richelieu its characteristic soft touch. The special knitting technique through machines exclusively made for this model, lends it a unique elasticity coupled with feathery and fluffy qualities. Single-unit tailoring makes each piece a unicum. Richelieu is probably the most widely filmed singlet in Hollywood; worn for example by Sylvester Stallone in Rocky, Joaquin Phoenix in Walk the Line, Jamie Foxx in Ray and Denzel Washington in Devil in a Blue Dress, Brand Pitt & Anjelina Jolie.

Madonna's private life is seldom out of the papers but this new Dolce & Gabbana campaign is unlike anything you have seen before. Exit the paparazzo, these shots by Steven Klein reveal much more than a grainy stolen picture, they showcase an intimate, real aspect to the ultimate icon's life.

"To have Madonna in our campaign is a dream come true," says designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana.
Madonna is prepping dinner, eating pasta and rinsing plates. All that while wearing expensive low-cut designer clothing. If you're worried that Madonna may "gain a pound", don't worry. She exercises way to much to "gain" any weight. So, Madonna's figure is not going anywhere, anytime soon."She loved the collection," said Gabbana. // "She is passionate and impressively knowledgeable about Italian cinema."
"Certainly," Gabbana said. "She's a very practical woman." // "Of course (she eats pasta)," Gabbana added , "and she can allow herself to with all the exercise she
