Crystal lovers...Diego Dolcini

Diego Dolcini is an up-and-coming shoe designer that is really valued for the futuristic and rock taste that his creations belong. In particular, he put into he same shoes, in this specific case, the crystals, the leather, "rock" colors (gold, silver, black and "red-gold crystals") and a very slim heel: wonderful result!!!

So I believe that we can consider these shoes as a kind of artwork.

Crystal lovers...Emilio Pucci

This is the last post about Crystal Lovers project. I didn't speak of all the designers that took part in this project but if you are interested about them you could go on LuisaViaRoma and look to their creations. In fact I didn't speak about, for example: Balmain, Zanotti, Ferragamo...Because I've thougth that their creations were not enoguh interesting and new...

In the specific case this mini-dress is decorated by the caleidoscopid print and has a beautiful taste of infinitive. Then, the crystals make the cocktail dress more youth than the other mini-dresses. In fact, I love these projects because allow the designers to went out from their "clichè" and, so, they can develop new ideas.

Crystal Lovers...Casadei

Personalmente apprezzo molto poco le scarpe di Casadei: spesso troppo improntate sul lusso e troppo poco sul design. Nel caso specifico, non riesco a farmi piacere (stranamente,d ato che adoro completamente questa collaborazione) i diversi colori dei cristalli posti vicini e la notevole dimensione degli stessi. Inoltre penso che il costo di quasi 6000 euro per queste scarpe sia davvero esagerato (mi paiono proprio "cheap e brutte")!

I don't like a lot Casadei's shoes and also in this case I don't like them (it's strange because I like everything of the Crystal Lovers project). The crystals are too big for me and the match of the color it's strange...Or better it appears as it was done in a casual way. Then the classic type of the shoes (boring...) and the price almost 8000 $ (crazy for these shoes, as was crazy 1000$ for the Balmain t-shirts with the holes...): they don't help me to try to like these shoes.

Crystal lovers...Roberto Cavalli

So often people think to Cavalli as a volgar, inelegant designer. But it's not so and he is one of the most important designer that create evening dresses.

For the Crystal Lovers project he went out his classical style of ethnic and urban-warrior women and went into a more sweet and romantic style. The cocktail-dress is developed on a soft light pink organza silk and it's decorated with Swarovski elements: perfect for a lovely evening with the partner or for a cockatil party with the friends.

With today I want to show you some of the products that are born by the collaboration between LuisaViaRoma, Swarovski and some of the most important contemporary brands (Pucci, Cavalli, Ferragamo, Zanotti, Balmain...). Each brand purpose a different creation that's decorated with the wondeful crystals.
