MICHAEL STILL REIGNS AS KING

Slow Release Week Will Leave Him on Top Again, With Fabolous Biggest Bow
The dog days of August commence this weekend, and it doesn’t look like there’s any relief in sight to the retail doldrums.
Based on one-day sales reports from those still keeping their doors open, Michael Jackson’s Number Ones will once more top the HITS Top 50, with the best-selling album in the country probably racking up another 120k or so, even if it does drop another 25%, though it’s a little early for estimates.

TAYLOR MADE!!!!! I NEED THAT RIGHT THERE
Rag & Bone

Until very recently, if you wanted a personalized suit from Rag & Bone, you needed a personal relationship with Rag & Bone—made-to-measure was the privilege of friends, industry insiders, and VIPs. And while we’re all for making nice with your favorite designers, we’re glad to say the option’s now available to all. If you’ve got the desire (and the means) for made-to-measure, it’s yours—and if you’re a guy who’s never been on friendly terms with off-the-rack, that’s good news indeed.
Designer Marcus Wainwright cautions that the custom Rag offerings—which come, like the ready-to-wear suits, from tailors’ tailor Martin Greenfield—aren’t traditional, tabula rasa bespoke. “It’s not a Savile Row thing where they’ll start from nothing,” he says. “The lapel won’t change, the pocket shape won’t change, and it’s our lining, our trim, our detailing; we have a specific color of pick stitching and French facing, and metal buttons. It’s still a Rag & Bone suit.”
Except for the most complicated of fits, the s hapes will be based on one of four existing styles: the Razor (with its narrow lapel), the Scissor (with a narrower shoulder and cropped lapel), the Scalpel (single-button, peak lapel), and Straight (with patch pockets). The fabrics, on the other hand—including, for spring, mohair and linen blends and a Loro Piana wool—are fully customizable for all. Fully, that is, within reason. “We’re quite conservative, so you can’t get a pink Rag & bone suit,” Wainwright says. “Well, you probably could if you really wanted it—I just don’t know where we’d get the pink.”
Rag & Bone made-to-measure, from $2,000, at Rag & Bone, 104 Christopher St., NYC, (212) 727-2999, rag-bone.com

Ferrari 458 Italia Unveiled

The curvy accomplishment sitting before you is the newly-unveiled Ferrari 458 Italia, which will replace the F430. While the car won’t be shown in public until the Frankfort Motor Show in September, Ferrari has released the details and given us an intimate glimpse of what to expect with these stunning renderings. “Designed for owners for whom the priority is uncompromising on-road performance with occasional track day capability, but who still demand a car that is useable in day-to-day driving”, the 458 Italia features a direct-injected, mid-rear V8 good for 562 horsepower and 398 lb-ft of torque. A seven-speed dual clutch gearbox provides seamless shifting and control while a steering wheel with integrated controls keeps nearly every necessary adjustment at the driver’s fingertips. The 458 tops out at 9000 rpm and Ferrari redesigned the gear ratio so that 80% of its torque is available at the low 3250 rpm. The powertrain combines with the compact, aerodynamic shape and lightweight aluminum structure to provide a 0 to 62 time of 3.4 seconds and a top speed of 202 MPH.  The 458 gives
