Prom party
For our summer shoot we’re strolling beside the sea in crisp, bright separates, sleek swimwear and smart sunglasses. The location? A once-mocked resort with some new-wave architecture.
Heady days
Specialist scents by small artisanal producers are making a big splash with retailers and consumers. Monocle visits a Milan trade fair to discover the growing niche market for unique fragrances.

Family jewel
While still a schoolgirl, Caroline Gruosi-Scheufele was representing her family firm Chopard and visiting clients including Imelda Marcos. With her brother and her parents actively involved, business is full of kindred spirits.
Inventory No. 43
Wooden games, fine chocolate, olive oil and extra-slim soap bars are on the Monocle shopping list this month
Playing footsie
Monocle pulls back the tablecloth at our favourite brasserie for a flash of heel, a hint of calf and a couple of handsome ankles and some good brogues, wedges and loafers.
One to watch
The BaselWorld watch fair is ticking over nicely. With watchmakers posting healthy profits, everything from jewel-encrusted timepieces to golden age classics are on display. And the trade chatter? Chinese and Brazilian markets.
