Paco Rabanne...Le 69 Bag!

The bag was launched in 1969 and it was called "Le 69" bag that was made up of metal plates. Now Rei Kawakubo, Comme des Garçons, re-edit this bag with acrylic, gum and aluminium. The shape and the model are the same of the past. I think that this bag is really interesting because it's an innvoative model, or at least a good reinterpetation, and now there aren't so many bags that are similar with this one. The color is quite good and the shape is classic but nice. In the end, it's one of the most wearable pieces that Kawakubo had ever made.

Dior Homme...jackets!

Dior Homme, or better Van Assche, realized these amazing jackets. The first is a wool coat that is interesting for its belt (also used in this f/w 2010 by Prada) and for the softness. The second is a wonderful jacket really "adherent" on the body and in the end that amzing jacket that has into itself a scarf. In fact, the "new idea" is about the insertion of a scarf  into a jacket. I'm fascinated from the wonderful use of cachemire and wool made by Dior Homme. Love it!

Tao Kurihara...skirt!

I chose this skirt because the prints and the patchwork are two trends of this winter; but it's unusual to find these trends in the same cloth. In particular, I love the ethnic taste of the colorfull print matched with the "strong" black border that breaks the vintage style of the skirt.

Roger Vivier

This clutch made in marmot fox is from Roger Vivier. Bruno Frisoni is a genius and this bag represents it. There are two different, opposite, sensation that the bag gives to us: first of all the nice taste of sweetness that every animal should inspire in the humans being and on the other side the sensuality of the black and strenght of the ctystal eyes and the anger of this "fox face".

Rodarte...skirts from f/w 2010!

When I saw these skirts I couldn't avoid to show you them...They are a bit expensive but please go on and look about their perfection. The vintage style of them, made by Rodarte, is mixed with a sense of movemente that it's so strange and unusual in "vintage inspired" clothes. But it's useless to speak abotu any kind of style when we speak about Rodarte: it has its style and it's truly stupid try to put it in a "classic style".
