In assessing her work, Hansen ex-
plains that she was only embodying a

and personal branding. She was in ser-
vice to the fiction, not the star of it.

“It’s the editors who make the story,
not the model,” she says. “They chose
me. They chose the clothes.”

It’s the model, however, who brought
the clothes to life and made them real.

Even now, when discussing the

Fall 2018 trend report: What the new season entails

BY CAROLINE LEAPER
The Telegraph

The fall 2018 fashion season is immi-
nent ...

The seemingly endless summer is
cooling off a little, it appears, which
sounds like the perfect opportunity to
cast our thoughts forward to the in-
coming new fashion season. Fall 2018
promises to bring with it a batch of
fresh ideas, from spins on iconic heri-
tage looks, to yet another revival of ’ 80s
style. There are updates on how to wear
your coat (a technique-led trend that
anyone on any budget can accomplish)
and new ways to wear neon (it looks
great, honestly). The only question to
ask yourself; Which trend should I try
first?

Extreme layering
Why choose one favorite coat for
the new season, when you could wear

Balenciaga, Simone Rocha, Missoni and
more shows for autumn 2018, where
looks came with an abundance of lay-
ers. Blanket throws, puffa jackets, capes
and waterproofs all now go together. In
real life, you might want to simplify the
styling by just adding a thick coat over a
thinner one in a contrasting color. Snug.

New York and head of its petroleum department. His final employment
was as a Limited Partner and Senior Vice President at the investment
banking firm Drexel Burnham Lambert. In 1980 Bill joined his longtime
friends Tom Lugaric and Peter Shea in founding Hydrocarbon Energy,
Inc. With this partnership the three combined their considerable talents to
identify and conduct oil and gas drilling operations in Texas, New Mexico
and Oklahoma on behalf of their investors. They had a grand time doing it.
In the 90’s Bill and Josephine began traveling the world in earnest, and winter
vacations in Vero Beach in the early 80’s, extended to full-time residence at
Windward in the Moorings. More golf, music, opera and dancing ensued.
Tall, slim and reserved, Bill was known for his gentlemanly manner and
dress. If there was music playing, he could usually be found out on the dance
floor. We have some recent videos of Bill doing the rumba to prove it.
Bill was devoted to his family and he will be greatly missed. He is survived
by his sister, Virginia Baldinger of Washington D.C., his brother-in-law
Paul Emery and wife Katherine of Pittsburgh, his children, Lisa Waag of
Moss Beach, CA, Carol Waag and husband Jay Swift of Middlefield, MA,
and Richard Waag and wife Grace of Sherman CT, his grandchildren, Greta
Waag of Nahant, MA, Lauren Waag of Denver, CO, and Seth Waag-Swift of
Minneapolis MN, as well as his honorary daughter Mako Mochizuki Lutyens
of London. The family wishes to express their profound gratitude to Bill’s
caregivers Donna Galluzzo and Cheryl MacDonald.
