...very often that new faces appear in the front row at fashion shows, so when a petite blond with Miu Miu eyeglasses occupied prime seats at the Milan and Paris collections last spring, veterans took note. They should have known: new luxury markets bring new editors into the fray, and the booming luxury-goods business in Russia has brought Evelina Khromtchenko, 35, to fashion's forefront. She's the clever editor in chief and creative director of the Russian edition of L'Officiel, a fashion magazine with 100,000 readers who can't get enough of Chanel, Dior and, lately...

But the July election, in which his party won 47% of the popular vote, together with the appointment last month of President Abdullah Gul, a conservative Muslim, appear to have emboldened the religiously conservative party. One of its main tasks now is to revise a constitution that was introduced by a military government after a coup in 1980. The government has assigned a team of academics and lawmakers to come up with a new one. Wording of a first draft was recently leaked to the Turkish...
