Then there are dozens of little labels: Miss Sixty, Juicy Jeans, Paper Denim. "It's a wild thing from a fashion standpoint to keep up with this," says Robert Burke, senior fashion director at Bergdorf Goodman. "Consumers move on with these brands very quickly.

Beginning with “Visions of Paradise,” Jagger undertakes the previously unimaginable task of coming to terms with the fact that he is possibly the only man alive over the age of 50 who is still allowed to wear denim jeans and a leather jacket, bed supermodels and sing about it in front of thousands of people.
