Anthropologie Selling The Ugliest, Most Offensive $400 Candlestick Ever
Anthropologie has been known to hawk some unreasonably expensive, outrageously ugly wares. Remember that $2,200 beribboned rickshaw? What about the $800 paper mâché rotary phone?

Shrek Goes Glam For V Man
We all know that despite the importance fashion puts on appearance, it’s what’s inside is what matters. And no film exemplifies this more than Shrek. For Issue 18 of VMAN, photographer Ellen von Unwerth shot the Ogre and his fellow castmates, along with models Agnete Hegelund, Emma Dumont, Paolo Anchisi, and Francisco Lachowski, in honor of the 4th and final chapter of the Shrek movies.
