Chanel Spring 2021 Couture

February 3, 2021

 

Every time Chanel presents a new collection , I feel like being in a place of a special celebration..!

This season, Chanel’s creative director Virginie Viard , designed for a marriage party composed of her haute couture cabine, some 32 models in all.

These are not, as Viard says, the conventional fancy nuptials one might expect from a Parisian couture collection, but instead “more bohemian style—more a wedding or a family celebration in a village than at the Ritz!” complete with “the mother and the aunt, [and] the 15-year-old girl dressing up for the first time”—the latter in a tiny little grown-up black dress of spangled black tulle worn with 1980s opaque white tights.

Chanel’s Métiers d’Art Collection to the Château des Dames

La Pausa, Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel’s  fabled house in Roquebrune in the south of France, was probably the inspiration for one of the most spectacular , recent fashion shows we had the opportunity to enjoy.

Chanel’s creative director Virginie Viard was taken on a tour of the storied Chateaux of the Loire. At the time, she was more impressed by the splendors of Chambord than the more intimate charm of the fairytale Château de Chenonceau. Revisiting Chenonceau earlier this year, however, when the castle was planned as the setting for an in-person Métiers d’Art show  Viard was struck by how closely the atmosphere of the place evoked La Pausa.

Emily in Paris , all you need to know…!

October 31, 2020

 

 

Whether you are a Netflix lover or you simply don’t want to spend your free time indoors, you’ll have undoubtedly heard of Emily in Paris, the glitzy and glamorous new show from creator of Sex and the City and released in early October on Netflix.

Starring Lily Collins as the titular Emily (a less psychotic Carrie Bradshaw stand-in), the show is so delightfully true-to-life, despite being as fantastical as one would expect from a series called Emily in Paris, because of how blissfully basic its American-Girl-In-Paris protagonist unknowingly is. That, however, must be the result of really good writing, because there’s just no way they could have captured the essence of such basicness if it wasn’t on purpose.

From her mannerisms to her Insta captions, click through for a recap of every embarrassingly relatable thing Emily (in Paris) does in Paris.

Besides , the show is a real heaven of fashion treasures from ZARA to CHANEL and so on…!

October 5, 2019

 

From the Temple of Poseidon on Cape Sounion, in Athens , one the most amazing and unique places in the world , Mary Kantrantzou, presented her latest collection for summer 2020.

“I did a collection based on ideas that were birthed here in the 5th Century BC when the temple was built,” Kantrantzou said, “From trigonometry to physics to biology to geology to philosophy.” As she pointed out in her show notes, the very word “idea” was invented in Greece.
