It’s Fashion Week In Brazil. Yes, Again.
When it comes to fashion weeks, in Brazil too much is never enough—in addition to São Paulo and Rio’s offerings, there’s also Capital Fashion Week, under way this week in Brasilia, a city better known for Oscar Niemeyer’s iconic architecture. But why not? With a bullish domestic market and explosive international growth (if only the U.S. could say the same), it makes sense that this South American superpower would put on the fashion full-court press. The week highlights included exceptional regional talents such as Carla Amorim, who presented a treasure trove of gold, diamond, and semi-precious jewelry, and designer duo João e Maria, fresh out of fashion school with an ingenious, eighties-inflected collection featuring transformable pieces (pants become a shirt, etc). As for Brazil’s hectic show schedule, is this the country’s final fashion week entrant? Who knows…after all, there are still 25 other states left.

NUTS HISTERIA

Are Nut Bans Promoting Hysteria? Worries about nut allergies are intense in some circles. (Lars Klove for The New York Times) Every parent of a school-age child has heard the warnings about nut allergies. Some schools ban nuts entirely, while others set aside special nut-free tables. Parents are often quizzed about the ingredients and preparation methods for birthday treats they send to school. One parent told me she was asked whether a clean knife used to cut brownies had ever been used to spread peanut butter. While nut allergies are clearly a risk to some children, often the response to this health concern represents “a gross overreaction to the magnitude of the threat,” argues Dr. Nicholas A. Christakis, an internal medicine doctor and professor at Harvard Medical School, in a recent column in the British medical journal BMJ. In the column, Dr. Christakis points out that about 3.3 million Americans are allergic to nuts, and even more — 6.9 million — are allergic to seafood. But of ...
