Bite Autumn 2012

DITOR’S LETTER Natasha Yexley Editor at large

A PROUD MOMENT IN HISTORY

T his year, we were a proud nation as London played host to one of the most exciting, anticipated and auspicious events of the year – the 2012 London Olympics and Paralympic Games. As we watched our countrymen and women compete, we proudly cheered Team GB on as they notched up a total of 65 medals, more than what was achieved at the Beijing Games in 2008. Hopefully, our wonderful athletes will be able to surpass that number at the Rio Games in 2016 – let’s keep our fingers crossed. The wonderful and delightful Nelly Furtado made her way back to the charts with ‘Big Hoops (The Bigger The Better) earlier this year after a short and much needed break. We welcome Nelly’s return and look back at her music career that first got us hooked on the catchy debut single, ‘I’m Like A Bird’ in 2001 and see how her music has evolved over the years, shaped her style and her voice with collaborations with the talented Timbaland and other producers. Once again, we applaud the fashion graduates that showcased their designs at Graduate Fashion Week earlier this year, and get a glimpse of the inspirations behind the collection of five Istituto Marangoni graduates. We also ask the question, where do the graduates go from here, once the show is over? As always, we bring you our catwalk report of the latest and hottest designer collections at London Fashion Week, provided by our online fashion correspondent and blogger, Stacy-Jayne Archer.

French Tuesdays never fail to keep us in the party mood with partying themes in cities around the world, including celebration of the 2012 Olympic Games. And we watch with eager eyes as Aston Martin reveals their newhero, the Vanquish and get excited at Brands Hatch Grand Prix as racing cars old and new hits the tracks. Full of news, reviews, beauty and fashion with exciting content, we invite you to take a bite and discover why The Bite Magazine is essential for you.
