VUITTON PARIS 2024

There are sometimes internal struggles in the creator competition that are beneficial to certain groups. The arrival of Pharrell Williams at Vuitton Homme has probably propelled the creator of Louis Vuitton Femme out of his lethargy. It was yesterday at the carrousel, in the square courtyard of the Louvres, which hosted the tents, as in the past, by the very late great Jacques, whom the couturiers had left little by little to present elsewhere, thinking that the center of Paris was not not relevant.

A large transparent marquee imitating for the occasion the Baltard pavilion that Verlaine called the Vulcain laces. But who will have noticed it in this crowd of 4,000 invited people who came to put the neighborhood and the rue de Rivoli in turmoil this Tuesday evening to close Paris Fashion Week.

A collection that presents the best of Nicolas, for a long time, with this chic and futuristic sportswear, which defines his couture which from time to time can be daring. Like this Norfolk jacket from the Duke of the same name, but who, in reality, was called Henry Fitzalan Howard for those close to him, a great fan of hunting before the eternal who ordered this jacket in 1860. Like a study of the spatiotemporal fault in opposing the future and the past, he achieves a visionary approach like the little Jura resident Louis in his time.

CHANEL AND DEAUVILLE

The House began in Deauville. The creation of her hat shop in 1912, followed quickly by the first clothes in her visionary, radical style. Gabrielle Chanel began her career here. Virginie Viard confides that this story is very close to her heart.

HERMÈS THE RAIN PASSAGER

The face of the sky is gray, the ground shimmers in the rain, a dark rain that falls from the ceiling as if to illuminate fashion. Unquestionably the cuts, which appear, are perfectly executed, and even if the leather is not worn in the rain, we have a collection as a whole that flirts with luxury. Continue reading

IRIS APFEL LAST SHOW FOR NEW YORK

Iris Apfel, super eccentric New York fashion icon, Instagram star and high priestess before the eternal, died Friday at the age of 102. With 3 million followers on Instagram, the centenarian still attended the presentations of great fashion designers, in a wheelchair. Born in Queens, Queen Iris Apfel had studied art history, making her the cultured aging bimbo extremely rare in the profession.

An interior designer, she participated in renovations to the White House for nine presidents, from Harry Truman to Bill Clinton. For decades, she had amassed clothes from the greatest designers of the 20th century, which fill two floors of her Park Avenue apartment. She used to say that someone had said to her one day. »You’re not pretty and you never will be, but that’s okay. You have something much more important: you have style.” So do it…

YSL DIFFRACTION OF FASHION

The “Transparences” exhibition currently taking place at the Yves Saint Laurent Museum in Paris is recording record attendance, a funny coincidence. On Tuesday evening, Anthony Vaccarello, constructed almost his entire fall collection with flimsy silk hosiery fabrics, which he said were a nightmare to produce.

Saint Laurent via a sensual nude outfit, while exalting the master’s legacy of transgression, liberation and empowerment of women. The models’ heads were covered in bonnets and their wrists covered with large transparent bracelets, as well as jewelry on their backs.

Vaccarello said he had the idea for this pure extravagance before the YSL museum revealed the theme of its spring exhibition, sure!. But I think it’s good that there is this link with the foundation also to make it clear that here it is also a house of transparency. Really very, very transparent in fact.

BURMA 2024

Paris is living in the Roaring Twenties, when Gaston Doumergue inaugurates Boulevard Haussmann with silver-gilt scissors; he cuts the symbolic ribbon criticized by some. At the time, Joséphine Baker had just performed at the Folies Bergères, with the revue Nègre. In the heart of the theater district, Maison Burma opens its doors and signs a style, in line with the new modern, emancipated and bustling woman.

Independent since its creation in 1927, faithful to the creativity and quality of the Maison’s creations, with a festive heart, a light spirit, with jewelry that marks the present time. Paris was the center of the international literary scene in those years, and writers like Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Gertrude Stein, and James Joyce participated in wild literary circles.

In Paris, fashion at that time was also driven by renowned designers like Coco Chanel who revolutionized the industry with their innovative designs. Burma plays a decisive role, because with an international reputation for its magnificent pieces set with these precious gems, it imposes its creations.

KIM SHUI NY 2024

When Kim Shui graduated from Duke University with a degree in economics in 2011, she didn’t intend to become a fashion designer, and that sounds like a former plumber wanting to become a digestive tract surgeon. This is the meeting of the Bling dynasty and US-trash on Roosevelt Avenue, that of sex workers. Two muses, dressed in gold nightgowns, appeared and came to the center of the stage to show off fashion so Putinist.
