The Shanghai Tang Polo Cup took place last weekend, staged in Mongolia’s spectacular Orkhon River Valley, Karakorum at the Genghis Khan Riding and Polo Club (GPS N.47’ 04’72.6” and E.102’ 70’76.0). It was held during the first International Polo Nadaam, and the resulting pictures are pretty spectacular…now that’s a press trip we wouldn’t mind going on next year - time to brush up on those polo playing skills!

Found this little guy in the office (From Swarovski’s Lovelots collection) - how do they make crystal look so sweet? His name is Shady…
Corinne Day, the fashion photographer made famous by her candid, confessional style died on Friday following a battle with brain cancer. Made famous for often working with unconventional models and with a confrontational or documentary style, Day questioned gender stereotypes in the mainstream media and magazines that dominated the glamorous models of the late 80’s. She contributed work with a documentary feel and more confrontational approach to magazines such as Dazed and Confused, British, Italian and Japanese Vogue, Vogue Homme, The Face and Ray Gun. Vogue editor Alexandra Shuman paid tribute to Day, saying: “Corinne was a photograper of huge talent and integrity. Her work for British Vogue was entirely original and will always be remembered. She could capture raw beauty like few others.” Day has had work exhibited around the world including the National Portrait Gallery, the V&A, The Tate Modern and at The Andy Warhol exhibition at the Whitney Museum.

Our summer postcard from the lovely Christian Lacroix…how very thoughtful.
The weekend before last some of the Tank team went along to Vintage at Goodwood. It was full of vintage lovers dressed up in their best 50 and 60s attire. Our Because Editor Georgie got up to her usual mischief and enjoyed having her photo taken…

Check out the first trailer for Black Swan, the new film by director Darren Aronofsky (Requiem for a Dream, The Wrestler).
