GOTH LITTLE GIRL
'Vichy checks, see-through dresses, baby-inspired necks, bustiers and corsets, platforms and socks, big bows and golden crosses--it's these elements that lend this dark-cute look such a grown-up, sexy twist. Start with a base layer made up of soft colors and vichy checks, and add a dark leather corset for some contrast and structure. Then soften and blend the outfit together with a baby-inspired neck detail and a see-through black dress. '

This past month we had the pleasure of collaborating with a US pulblication, Lucky magazine. The images above are from their June issue. Over the next week we will be posting the trends that were featured in their blog. This is the first of five entries that talk about key ideas for this summer.
LADY WEST
"It's time to look back at all those Western movies to find inspiration for what is going to be the hottest look for the upcoming seasons. The long, heavy Victorian dress with puffy sleeves and detail-pleated front of yore is, today, a super-light, silky and sheer dress. Working with a very pale pink color palette, the strong Western touch should come from adding a super-wide black hat. To get the right twist, find a XXL sweatshirt and cut the sleeves by half--then layer it over your dress with a piece of thin (new) rope belted around around the waist."

JESSICA CRAIg-MARTIN
This book got to our hands not long ago, the minute we saw the cover, we thought "that was it", same vision and aesthetic as our trend "aristocracy". When we were putting all together the idea of building this trend, we had all of this pictures in our heads, but still we did not know about Jessica Craig-Martin, fashion photographer and artist. Get the book PRIVILEGE, it is published by RVB & Images en Manoeuvres. It is just perfect.
Here is our input on the subject. Many thanks to Sergio Esche, who was in charge of the hair style and make up, it was just grand!!

DEAD MAN (1995), MARIT ALLEN
Love in the Time of Cholera, La vie en rose, Eyes Wide Shut, Wind, Little Shop of Horrors are just some of the titles of the many movies where the great costume designer Marit Allen left her legacy.
"Dead Man", is the best western movie ever filmed since the "High Noon" in 1952. Here, Marit left for us an amazing costume design full of "out laws" wearing lots of great fur coats, big hats, boots and lots of layering with the best accurate period details.

Featured at スープ Magazine
A month ago I was so happy to receive an email from the people of Soup Magazine requesting a shooting and an interview for their February Issue. It was a pleasure working with the girls in charge of the pictures and the text and having them taking pictures at my place.
I have been able to understand just few of the contents on the text with my basic Japanese knowledge and it talks about the work I do for the website and a litlle bit about my favourite pieces plus an introduction to who I am and what I do with my spare time.
Now its time to keep working on the website and few other collaborations we have going on.
