SARA Black celebrated her 36th birthday this month bedridden with a hip fracture after a biking accident. Still, the photographer and former model looks as radiant and fresh as ever.

The past two weeks saw a series of eye-popping news: reports Raf Simons’ installment at Calvin Klein following his departure from Dior last October; the collapse of Brit department store BHS under the stewardship of Topshop entrepreneur Sir Philip Green; and the surprise sale of DKNY by LVMH to the G-III Apparel Group.
