Munich: Maison Martin Margiela

August 10, 2013August 10, 2013 | Design & Culture by Ed

Munich is a great place for visiting, not only because of the great museums and monuments, but also for superb shopping! Today I will show you my three favourite places up here! And, if you want to see what is in stores, just see the labels on my Pages footside!

So, my first favourite place is Maison Martin Margiela boutique, hidden as always from tourists. All in white, with surrealistic furnitures and with mirrors around, you shall see the Moleskine cotton paper notebook and beautiful “things” like shoe candles and ink pens. But, the coolest are of course clothes! For women I found most shoes and bags exciting, and at mens the fur coat stole the spotlight. The service was very nice, and soon you will see what I bought! P.S. I still have white dots behind my eyes of that intense colour use in the store! 😄

Saint Laurent Boots

For two months I am a number one fan of Saint Laurent AW13 collection by Hedi Slimane. I am in love to death with the California grunge inspired looks full of checks, leather and mini dresses. And these LA musician influenced boots are like the best thing in the collection. But why the #%^*@ are they so, so expensive? Hey, 5685€ is alright? No, not Hedi is mad Cathy Horyn, but the person that is dealing with commercial part for SL. These boots with the “DIY” decoration are beautiful, but not for 5000 and more euros. But, Slimane thought of more normal people and created the cheaper version of these boots for 1500€- without anything special. Just black, normal grunge boots. This is not same effect, but what shall I do? Still cool… 😋😋😋😋

Acne in London

The new Acne Studios boutique in London on Pelham Street 93 have just opened! It’s the newest store of this Swedish label that has it’s own, unique touch- concrete, marble and pink velvet sofas! The store is already supplied with Acne’s Pre-Fall collection that I simply love! Till now I remember the warm atmosphere of New York SoHo Acne boutique, with great customer care and amazing wardrobes… The new hot spot of fashion is for sure the Pelham Street 93.!
