14 YOUR SUITE IS READY, MR. CHURCHILL
Although Egypt has recently descended into chaos and a
mob-rule mentality, for much of the 20th
century Cairo was an exotic and grand metropolis for
internationalists, adventurers and the anointed to play
in—and Shepheard’s Hotel was the place to stay. Its
residents ranged from kings and princes to spies, movie
moguls, prime ministers and cabaret stars, and for a while,
Shepheard’s was the most celebrated hotel in the world.
TREATS! looks back at the halcyon days when if you
weren’t staying at Shepheard’s—and imbibing in its
infamous Long Bar—then you were nobody.

24 ROBIN THICKE
He’s #1 in 102 countries. His daring and controversial video
for “Blurred Lines” has set the Internet on fire—from
Lithuania to New Zealand—generating millions and millions
of views. He’s breaking records set by The Beatles (his
favorite band). And he wants to thank TREATS!. We spend
a day with Robin Thicke and find a man humbly strapped
to the rocket ride of his life—and in the mood to talk about
TREATS!’ role in inspiring the notorious “Blurred Lines”
video. BY ROB HILL PHOTOGRAPHY BY STEVE SHAW
60 100 YEARS OF COOL
A century ago, two friends in England, Lionel Martin and
Robert Bamford, thought they could build a car that was
faster and sexier than anything out there—and Aston
Martin was born. Surviving multiple near bankruptcies, two
world wars, numerous ownership changes, and oil
embargoes, today Aston Martin is not only one of the
coolest brands in the world, it is synonymous with Britain’s
most famous export: James Bond. TREATS! charts Aston
Martin’s winding course. BY ROB HILL
108 MICK ROCK
For over 40 years, no other rock n’ roll photographer
has captured more iconic images than Mick Rock. From
Syd Barrett and David Bowie to Iggy Pop and Lou Reed,
Rock has often been called “the man who shot the ‘70s.”
TREATS! drops by his Manhattan studio and finds a man
obsessed with chronicling Kabuki theater, publishing
new books and creating groundbreaking collages.
