高級時裝/MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA COUTURE FW13

MARGIELA_LATEX

美妙地傳譯著日常白Tee配牛仔褲的配搭。Maisan Martin Margiela重新想像了這個常青組合,以乳膠物料展現高級訂造服於天橋上。比例完美,意念無敵。

What an amazing interpretation of the everyday staple of a white t-shirt and jeans. Maison Martin Margiela has re-imagined it for the haute couture runway no less in a latex material. The proportions are perfect. The idea A-grade. Chutzpah!

再见/GOODBYE MARC JACOBS

GOODBYE_MARC

在SS14 Louis Vuitton發佈會中,官方證實與Marc哥的結束16年關係,這個消息對Louis Vuitton的粉絲十分失望,因為Marc哥在這16年內為LV掀起不少熱話,如經典的村上龍聯名合作系列。但經典只能回味,我們只能在這裡說:再見,Marc哥。

Wasn’t Marc Jacobs’ run at Louis Vuitton one of the most successful ever? From his appointment under great scrutiny, didn’t Louis Vuitton and Marc Jacobs evolve into the perfect match? He must be remembered for propelling a storied ‘luggage’ house into the stratuspheres of contemporary fashion. There were times where, under his leadership, Louis Vuitton could have been considered the pinnacle. To truly acknowledge the reality of his departure, a passing salutation of respect would be an insult. A chorus of ovations would be the least apropos. Some of his women’s collections for me, were the epitomy of creative brilliance. From Fall 2007 to 2009, Marc ‘dun run tings’. That period was spectacular. Mr. Jacobs was always able to distill his ideas into wearable forms. He had the ‘pulse’, it seemed, innately. Could he be the trigger point of street fashion’s appropriation to the runway? The ‘bunny ears’ collection, ‘tribal’ the season before, outstanding! On to the next Marc Jacobs. Please continue to inspire us!

毒品/BENEDETTA BRUZZICHES PURSE

親愛的Benedetta,我經常幻想你是一位來自意大利的女強人,一位擁有著無限幽默感的女性,就如《Dolce Vita》的女主角。只有你才會創作出如此有時尚感的設計——金色禮物包的clutch。這充滿創意的設計,將會於全球的Harvey Nichols有售。

Oh Benedetta, Benedetta. I imagine you as a strong Italian woman. One with a strong sense of humor and mischief, living the ‘Dolce Vita’! Who else would design a clutch as a gold wrap gift! Not only a great concept but proportionately well executed as well. A very slick piece available at Harvey Nichols worldwide.

毒品/HERMES ‘NOMBRE D’OR’ JEWELRY

這一季終於有一些飾物可以吸引到我們的眼睛-它就是Hermès(愛瑪仕)的珠寶。可能這一季的珠寶整個系列都是艷麗的玫瑰金色和配上一個合適的名字「Nombre D’Or’」。不僅如此,以我們細膩的雙眼看到這首飾系列當中有2款新設計- 1多鍊式手鐲-我們在照片中放大了當中的細節位;另外一款是扣環式手鐲和編織的細節。對於一些不熟悉的人,就好像我們,原來Hermès的珠寶是由Pierre Hardy設計。這個秘密的合作…這一年Hermès已全力以赴在珠寶的系列上,各位同行請留意!

Some great pieces caught our eye this season from Hermès jewelry. Perhaps because this season the entire jewelry line was done up in rose gold, and appropriately named ‘Nombre D’Or’? No, well not only. Our discerning eye noticed 2 pieces that were new designs, and we approve! One, a multi-chained bracelet, which we have magnified for detail in the photo above, and another bracelet, with a buckle center piece and braid weave detail. For those who didn’t know, like us, Hermès jewelry is designed by the master Pierre Hardy his bad self! These secret collaborations… This year Hermès has really pulled out all the stops with the jewelry line, Niloticus, Niloticus, Niloticus…stay tuned.

AMEN PAPA的“LOL“網狀毛衣實在一絕。以往總覺得玩味重或太玩message的設計不會被穿衣者”玩得起“。AMEN PAPA這件卻體貼地可穿性甚高。香港的Bauhaus有售。

Definitely loving this mesh ‘LOL’ sweater from AMEN PAPA. Always feeling fashion that carries a fun and playful message that doesn’t ‘play’ the wearer. Still retains a very understated and wearable sensibility. Available at Bauhaus in Hong Kong.
