I admit being a Burberry girl. Ever since I saw their Spring Summer 2009 ads I knew it: this season it’s going to be Burberry or nothing at all! I can’t stop looking at those shoes and find them perfect! The shape, the heel… I rarely stare with that much admiration but those platforms stubbornly [...]

Everybody (and their dog) has (at least) a bag these days. And by “having” a bag I mean having a bag designed especially for you! Bryanboy has one! And not just any, a Marc Jacobs! Now Lindsay Lohan joins the very exclusive club of bag designer-owner. As the new Fornarina spokesface for their Spring Summer [...]

Gwyneth Paltrow, our leggy darling has done it again! She pulled a super mini number for the Grammy Awards 2009 where she announced the Radiohead representation. Her gold sequined Versace dress was matched with silver tights (which was rather coherent since the inferior part of her strapless dress was silver sequined). However, I’m not sure [...]

Since I talked about La Perla earlier, I thought I’d give you the reason I like it so much. So I searched (and found) the latest collection signed by La Perla: Spring Summer 2009, Prêt-à-Porter.

The result wasn’t really what I expected, so it’s double the pleasure of finding out that Repetto comes from [...]

Christian Lacroix eclecticism is always interesting to watch. I may not agree with his choices, I may as well love them, Christian Lacroix is to me an artisan of fabric, colors and influences. This new Couture collection is no exception either. I sometimes take every collection (especially the Haute Couture ones) as a movie and [...]

Lagerfeld’s Chanel Haute Couture Spring 2009 Collection was, contrary to the Kaiser’s saying, quite recession-ish. It was like a dance, a dance with 65 brides and widows. I can’t help but noticing the brides largely outnumbered the widows since there was an outstanding majority of white, white-ish, butter-ish creations on the catwalk. (don’t miss the [...]

After Alessandra Facchinetti’s two seasons-tryout chez Valentino, she left the maison. The blurry situation wasn’t even clarified when Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pier Paolo Piccioli were appointed as the new creative team chez Valentino. Yesterday the accessory team, today the designers behind Valentino, Maria Grazia and Pier Paolo made a true show out of this [...]
