Jefferson Hack is a traditionalist at heart. The leader of the indie publishing pack likes the idea of setting one night aside during the Milan shows when all the fashion tribes can congregate under the aegis of his Another Magazine to unwind over dinner and drinks. Better still, the location is the classic Le Langhe on Corso Como, where the food is never going to distract from the social intercourse. Saturday night's get-together was a case in point. Margherita Missoni fessed up to Michael Roberts about her nerves on the eve of the launch of her first full accessories collection for her family business. After owning up to his profound love of horror movies (but his reluctance to see Paranormal Activity), Raf Simons told Suzy Menkes about a frightening mid-sea experience he had while on holiday in Puglia last year. Of course, fear can be a man's best friend at such an insider-y fashion function, which is maybe why those steeling themselves with a cigarette in the street outside included Carsten Höller, Olivier Zahm, PR maven Gillian McVey, and the host himself.
