Lacroix is back!
Today the couture shows started. One of my favorite times of the year, it's like my Christmas and that's specially when the king of haute couture is back with all his tulle things, puffy silhouttes and bows: LACROIX!
After the sad closure of the house of Christian Lacroix in 2009, he's now back to revive the House of Schiaparelli. An 18-perfect-piece collection presented in Les Arts Decoratifs with everything that made him famous and unique, full of theatrics and drama.
"It’s
as if it was a musical about Schiaparelli, and I’m in charge of the
costumes"
"I love that — how to be witty, spirited, elegant, Parisian, even during
the war ... Colors, ribbons, whimsical hats — everything I love is
coming mainly from her," said Christian.
Honestly I'm the happiest! I've always admired his work as a designer, his attention to details, embroidery, ribbons, bows, embellishment, everything! He truly is a genius and I hope he could back on business either he stays at Schiaparelli or starts as creative director for some brand.
Always & forever Lacroix ♥

Royal Ascot 2013
I have always have a thing for hats, caps, headpieces or whatever you can put on your head. I remember that when I started studying Fashion Design my goal was to be a Millinery Designer like Philip Treacy or Stephen Jones but at some point reality hit me and I realize that to be a hat maker I will have to live in England and made just a few amazingly absurd hats per year... Not profitable.
But anyways, whener I made a collection or a design or even a sketch there's always a Millinery element in it. And maybe that's my muse and number one love is always and forever Isabella Blow.
I guess that British do it better!
