Paris fashion week: new proposals and much criticism
February 4, 2009Last Sunday, January the 25th, Paris Fashion Week switched off its reflectors on the men’s autumn-winter 2009/2010 collections presented by the most famous French fashion houses and emerging designers. As you already know, this important show was preceded by another fashion event, Milan Fashion week where many world famous and Italian designers presented their own collections. Because of the closeness of these two events, fashion journalists and critics have had the opportunity to analyze and compare both these “fashion weeks” in a very detailed way and many criticisms have been made of both the events.
Before discussing this subject, let’s see in more detail what was proposed at the Paris fashion week by French designers:
Perfect Valentine’s Day Gifts (and one from us to you!)
February 2, 2009It’s not long now till Valentine’s Day, the day when lovers all over the world celebrate their love, exchanging gifts and cards as a token of the depth of their feelings. For this special occasion too, we thought we’d put together some tips for those of you who still haven’t decided what to give your partner.
We have come up with various ideas to suit your needs, whether you are looking for a simple gift, a romantic gesture or something on a grand scale.
ALTA ROMA FASHION EVENT
January 30, 2009Starting today, January the 30th, until February the 3rd, Rome will be the wonderful setting of the ALTA ROMA FASHION EVENT, an important show in which some Italian and foreign fashion houses take part in order to present their new creations. This year, the list of designers seems shorter than last year, probably due to the economic crisis which has obliged many fashion houses to postpone the showing of their new models.
Dear Men, Will your tote bags still be fashionable next year?
January 30, 2009Many of the top, world famous fashion houses took part in this show and it would be almost impossible describe each of them in detail. So we have decided to concentrate just on those designers who, more than others, have prioritized the usage of prestigious exotic leathers in the making of their masterpieces or have re-proposed the use of handbags and suitcases for men too, because, in our opinion, they are more relevant to our business and to our projects than the others.
