The Viktor & Rolf ‘Top Belt Jumpsuit’

The Viktor & Rolf ‘Top Belt Jumpsuit’ takes the concept of high-wasted bottoms to a whole new level. The off-white one piece builds on the length of pants, extending them from the lower half of the female body to the very top. The detachable belt covers the upper width of the design, allowing for custom adjustments based on size and desired look.
This full-length piece provides a twist on the classic dress pant style. Many women pair them at business and gala events with chiffon blouses, effectively eliminating pant-only options. The Amsterdam fashion label has turned this norm on its head via the wool-based strapless design, sure to attract fashionistas from all over the world who wish to do away with chic norms.

The Bugatti Wei Long Year of the Dragon Edition

The Bugatti Wei Long Year of the Dragon edition Grand Sport model was amongst the premium lot unveiled at the Beijing Motor Show, also carrying a premium price tag of $2.09 million (€1.58 million). However, the one shown at the event remains a one-off piece, making it yet another exclusive edition after the Visette series, L’o’Blanc Porcelain edition, and the ‘Sang Blanc’ version, which were all unique faces of this supercar.
Offering a 987 HP output power from the 8-liter W16 machine, the Grand Sport Year of the Dragon Bugatti can now declare far and wide, about an optimum speed of over 400 km/ph.

The reason this collector’s item got the attention at the event was the aesthetics, which the company redrafted the car in, with the collaboration of Königliche Porzellan Manufaktur. With porcelain being the new fabric of choice with the Bugatti designers, this special edition has been given the body of the same fabric in white color, whereas the interiors have been given a vibrant red coloring, but with special Dragon motifs all around. However, one will also notice the carmine red with the brake calipers of the 20-inch alloy wheels of the car.

3D chocolate printer

Choc Edge Ltd at UK is launching a commercial 3D chocolate printer. Lead scientist Dr Liang Hao, from the University of Exeter, founded the Choc Edge company to commercialise the device after interest from retailers. 3D printing using plastic, wood and metal is already widely used by industry to create objects ranging from jewellery and footwear to human bones. Dr Hao told the BBC that chocolate printing, just like any other 3D printing technique, starts with a flat cross-section image – similar to that produced by ordinary printers turning out images, and then prints out chocolate layer by layer to create a 3D shape, without any moulding tools. “We’ve improved and simplified the machine, so now it is really easy to use,” said Dr Hao. “You just need to melt some chocolate, fill a syringe that is stored in the printer, and get creative printing your chocolate.”
