Haute Couture 2016 – asaltul italienilor

March 30, 2016

Haute Couture este unul din subiectele mele preferate în ultima vreme. Îmi place să fiu surprinsă de oameni pentru care limitele de a crea și a transmite o stare nu există. Când însă lucrurile nu sunt asumate până la capăt, devin pe jumătate făcute – și te simți ca la un restaurant de lux unde mult lăudata friptură de rață cu portocale ajunge nefăcută în farfuria rece, în plus chelnerul ți-o pune în poală. Cum atacurile teroriste de la Paris…

Spring 2016 already in stores

March 26, 2016

It is not yet warm, but spring collections are ready and awaiting colorful for clients in parisian stores. I always loved to see summer pieces at the beginning of the year, it is like a hint of what summer will feel like and sound like. And this gives you good vibes even in the most grey and rainy day ever, the usual treat of the parisian weather. This time I got so excited about the summer feeling that my smartphone…

Justin O’Shea – waking up on the fashionable side of the bed

March 23, 2016

The new creative director at Brioni is an unconventional choice for the 70-year-old luxury company and well known as a street style star. Which shows clearly the aspect of today’s new creative director job, as Justin O’Shea has no training or experience so far as designer. This happens also because today the responsibility of such position goes far beyond designing several collections a year. “An unconventional profile for such a position, Justin brings a holistic approach and strong understanding of…

Lanvin’s new head designer Bouchra Jarrar

March 11, 2016

She’s far from being a newcomer. Bouchra Jarrar, 45 years old, had launched her own Haute Couture brand since 2010, after working for 10 years for Jean Paul Gaultier and as collection director at Balenciaga. After Albert Elbaz very surprising exit last october, Jarrar will be in charge of the ladies’s collection, knowing that dutch designer Lucas Ossendrijver will (continue to) take care of the men’s collection. Closer to a Gaultier style and sense of tailoring rather than the feminine…

O discuție recentă cu amicii la un pahar de rosé m-a pus pe gânduri. Subiect – ‘Cultura americană’. Interlocutori – ‘Visul american e încă valabil’. Din obscuritatea memoriei și a subconștientului au răsărit sinistrele bancuri cu “Ce avem noi și nu au americanii”, ca într-un performance cu o instalație luminoasă ghidată de acorduri muzicale. Chiar așa, ce avem noi și nu au americanii în 2016? ‘Să ne uităm în jurul nostru’, a spus unul dintre interlocutorii mei. Evident, nimic nou…

The Senior Cool Hunter – le livre “Le charme discret de l’intestin”

March 1, 2016

When my friend Sabrina asked me to draw a tattoo for her legg I was surprised. It was the first time I had to think about one of my drawings to be indefeasible marked on a living person. It was certainly more fun to play with lines and volutes and butterflies for me than for her ! But the result is there and I’m very proud of it. Sabrina was very happy and gave me as a present an absolutely…
