Plus: Max Mara and Prada at Milan Fashion Week
| | It is a scene that will be familiar to anybody who has ever set foot on a cruise ship.
Upon taking your seat for dinner in one of the ship’s glitzy restaurants, you are greeted with a torrent of uninspiring small talk from your neighbour. Or perhaps, worse still, you are seated beside another sort of the cruise-diner undesirable: the insatiable chatterbox; the personal-space invader; the dreaded inappropriate subject bringer-upper. The variations are almost as endless as they are horrifying.
Thankfully, writer Nicole Carmichael has provided an in-depth survival guide for exactly this situation, covering everything from dress code faux pas to conversational pitfalls.
Elsewhere, Lisa Armstrong visits Milan Fashion Week, where she witnesses two highly contrasting shows from heavyweight brands Max Mara and Prada.
