Max Mara Fall 2015

La plus récente collection de Max Mara était très figée sur les manteaux, et nous a d'ailleurs appris comment les porter. Les bras croisés serrés contre le corps, les mannequins défilaient sur le catwalk le remplissant d'une ambiance fifties. En effet, Marilyn Monroe était la muse de la collection, d'où les cheveux courts et ondulés et les lunettes papillons à la Pola Debevoise - personnage joué par Marilyn dans How To Marry A Millionaire. Ambiance fifties, disions-nous ? Cela a donc inclue tenues près du corps avec des jupes crayon arrivant aux mollets et mocassins. Cependant, les manteaux étaient loin d'être serrés, ils étaient même assez larges ce qui a crée un contraste intéressant. Dans l'ensemble, une élégance pure et simple comme on n'en avait pas encore vu cette saison, car la façon de porter les vêtement est ici aussi importance que les vêtement eux-même.

Max Mara's most recent collection was all about coats, and it actually tought us how to wear them. Crossed arms tighted against the body, the models walked the runway filling it with a fifties vibe. Indeed, Marilyn Monroe was the muse of the collection, which explains the short and wavy hair and the butterfly glasses that reminded us of Pola Debevoise - character played by Marilyn in How To Marry A Millionaire. Fifties vibe, were we saying ? So this includes close-fitting outfits with tight calf-length skirts and loafers. However, the coats were far from being tight, they actually were kind of oversized which created an interesting contrast. All in all, a simple and pure elegance like we haven't see before  this season, for the way of wearing the clothes is here as important as the clothes themselves.

Harry Styles, a fashion icon who breaks the rules

Harry Styles is known for being part of the well-known band One Direction, but also for his outfits and his taste for fashion. Indeed, at 21 years old only, the singer's looks helped him gained eminence in the fashion world, even though he is already considered a fashion icon. Harry's style is very particular. He usually wears extra-skinny jeans, printed shirts widely unbuttoned and boots. He wears a lot of Saint Laurent – which is doubtless his favorite brand – as well as some Marc Jacobs and Louis Vuitton. He kind of is the new Mick Jagger, in terms of fashion. In fact, his style could be described as rock n' roll chic, which explains his love for Saint Laurent – whose image was reinvented by Hedi Slimane . If Harry was a brand, he would definitely be Saint Laurent, which is one of the biggest names in fashion nowadays, especially in menswear. We would love seeing him walk for the iconic brand he does justice and is loyal to. But you know that for ...

PFW: Viktor & Rolf Couture Fall Winter 2015/2016 - "Wearable Art"

This wednesday Viktor and Rolf  presented their latest Haute Couture collection in Paris they named "Wearable Art". If you don't know it yet, the two designers revealed they would follow the steps of Jean Paul Gaultier by only focusing on Haute Couture. This show truly showed how fashion is a full art - wearable art to use their own words. While a lot of people question the true meaning of Couture, defining it as a bunch of expensive clothes you will never wear, Viktor and Rolf got things straight: fashion should not be considered only as a way to look good and following trends is boring - even though it is kind of important since it portrays a certain generation. Fashion should be considered as art on the same level as painting, architecture, poetry, music... If you are going to spend tons of money on a painting, why not on an outfit ? Both are different kinds of art. Anyway, it is interesting to see how the show evolved. The first looks consisted on denim sm...

CHANEL supermarket 2014-2015

"C'est la première fois que je mets les pieds dans un supermarché. C'est fou - fascinant ce que l'on peut acheter" avait déclaré Karl Lagerfeld lors d'une interview pour le magazine ELLE, en 2012. Eh bien pour son défilé, Chanel a monté un supermarché au Grand Palais, ce qui en a impressionné plus d'un. Une mise en scène exceptionnelle rappelant l'excellence de la maison Chanel. Les tenues et accessoires correspondaient complètement au décor: pochettes Chanel posées dans des petits paniers, sacs à main en forme de bouteille de lait sur lesquelles figurent les inscriptions "lait de coco". Superpositions qui n'en finissent pas et assemblages de matières et de motifs différents ont composés le défilé Chanel. Nous avons craqué pour les leggings en latex, départagés entre le côté chic et sportwear représentatif de l'ensemble de la collection. En effet le mélange de styles était omniprésents: entre les fameux colliers à...
