Mass hysteria alert: David and Victoria Beckham will be at the New York City 34th Street Macy's on Friday! If you're in the vicinity and want a chance to meet Bulging Becks himself, be one of the first 300 people in line and you can get his autograph...and maybe touch him. [The Cut]

Open for Business: Zaha Hadid's Neil Bartlett store in Tokyo. Plus Bloomingdale's in Dubai.

Tom Ford will finally get to indulge his fantasy of being a director. It's being reported he's wrapping up his own adaptation of Christopher Isherwood's 1964 novel, A Single Man, and Colin Firth and Julianne Moore are set to star in the lead roles. No doubt they will look impeccably fabulous in every scene. [Popnography]

Stefano Pilati has the secret to style, or so he says. "It's all about how curious you are about, like, constantly observing beautiful things," he, uh, observed in his Screen Test for The Moment. That's a golden nugget of wisdom if we've ever heard one. [The Moment]
