Amazon to open first cashierless shop

london - Emiratesvoice
Online giant Amazon on Monday plans to open a convenience store in Seattle where hungry customers will be able to grab sandwiches and go, without having to wait in line or use a checkout.
The American group unveiled the concept for its cashierless "Amazon Go" shop just over a year ago, saying the 1,800 square feet (170 square meters) store would initially offer grocery products to its own employees before being opened to the public.
Early testing however revealed bugs, leading to a delay.
In a message Sunday on its website, Amazon said it had created "the world's most advanced shopping technology so you never have to wait in line."
But if the rollout has taken some time, it's now ready to Go.
People armed with the app are able to pick up items as they roam the store and place them directly in their bags -- without the need for shopping carts or baskets.
Instead, items are automatically added onto a customer's online account when they're removed from a shelf, or taken off if the item is put back.
The system relies on a mix of cameras, sensors and artificial intelligence, according to Amazon.

to 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations. It includes the dress worn by supermodel Naomi Campbell, his longtime friend and muse, when she led
