Men’s: Ethno-Crush. Givenchy SS14

20130628-104732 PM.jpg

Nobody does menswear as good as Givenchy. Precisely, nobody does menswear as good as RICCARDO TISCI. The Italian designer of luxurious, high street fashion label Givenchy just did something in his collection, that have just hit me. Few seasons, Givenchy was a bit, I would say, same to the previous ones. Still, it was cool, but there was a lack of something fresh, a bit couture and strange. But, thanks god, definitely within this collection of menswear that changes- there is now a new crash of the prints, colours and everything else!
The SS14 for men was presented in a Parisian garage parking- it felt industrial and I (still, viewing on life stream) thought it will be minimalistic. But I was mistaken! The first look was like an arrow sent from an Amazonian local warrior- colourful jacket, full of prints of something similar to airplanes, palms, ethnic figures and stripes- like a crash of airplane in a jungle- as you see most models have some hind of paintings on their faces, that may be connected to new Riccardo’s inspiration- Ethnic Cultures! Everything else was as great as that- and on my wish list have already landed the sweatshirts with human faces covered with feathers and other decorations print. By the way one of these jackets would be a perfect match for me! That is an awesome collection. Here are real, out of heart, congratulations for Tisci. I love this type of fashion moments!

Biarritz: Thom Browne X Dita

20130628-073320 PM.jpg
These mind blowing sunglasses, handmade in entirely Japan and taking inspiration from architecture and machinery of the mid-20th century, these come from Thom Browne in collaboration with California-based eyewear manufacturer, Dita. When I saw them, here in Biarritz, I was like wow! They look really amazing! And this vintage appeal… They are both in white and black- unisex.

Biarritz: My Favourite Spots

Biarritz, on the coastline of the Biscay Bay, maybe isn’t too famous, but it has it’s own specific “style” that is very different from Paris and another French cities. Here, there are two really amazing boutiques that just can’t be passed unseen! It’s IN THE MIDDLE and LES ENFANTS TERRIBLES! Both got rare and super trendy labels like Stussy, and have a selection of most cool pieces!

In IN THE MIDDLE I bought this amazing floral logo Stussy t-shirt from -20% Sale (that happens only in France…) and I am very happy because it was last one in M! Stussy is a fresh label from New York, very vintage styled, thats usually worn with the Pyrex Vision thing. The shop- my personal Must Visit in Biarritz. Great shoes, American and Parisian labels, caps and sunglasses. All in pretty low prices but super chic! And I nearly bought that Levi’s denim jacket with the cat on back… Maybe? Really, I recomend this place to every fashionista!

LES ENFANTS TERRIBLES is a off duty shop with unknown labels of unknown designer with very clear and strong meanings! The t-shirts here are full of colours and great prints, plus you can try out all of these thousands rings, necklace, earrings, broches, bags, everything and other. Indeed, the jewelery is very kitsch and a bit enfantile… This boutique is full of youth spirit and fun!

Men’s: Les Tres Hommes

HAIDER ACKERMAN- This is his first menswear collection since 2010! From this time I was waiting and waiting and now it is- Haider Ackerman SS14 for men! It is really superb! Of course everyone knew how it more or less will look like- very Haider style. The presentation was similar to women’s- satin, chiffon, silk, dark colour palete were seen and this type of clothing like crotch pants and loose tops. I called this collection an Andalusian chic. First of all the colours- red, orange, kakki, all in dark tones. And it’s all super male style and modern at the same time! Plus the model’s tattoos look marvelous. This collection beats all menswear SS14 for now! 20130627-101954 AM.jpg20130627-102024 AM.jpg20130627-102047 AM.jpg20130627-102036 AM.jpg
RAF SIMONS- the designer of Dior didn’t suprise nor was bad. It was very Raf- minimalism, prints, shorts, socks and broques. I would wear SOME of these T-shirts, but the rest wasn’t my type. The prints were all about industrial packages, like for example of clusters. But in reality the collection wasn’t very different from last Summer. However it was good!

VALENTINO- it was very classy and still was connected to last season- camo. The sweatshirts and shoes were all over covered with camo! The rest was just as great as this print. Sophisticated sport elegance, leather pockets on shirts, cool trousers and beautiful colours of blue and orange. That was a very casual collection mixed with luxury and cool touch! Love it!

Hitchcockian Seduction

20130626-040340 PM.jpg
Hermes by Christophe Lemaire for AW13 is revisting the Hitchcock woman into a new generation- perfect anonymous chic to provide a subtle charge. This is what Parisian Hermes should be like- a bit menswear, elegant and super chic. This is a antidote for the colour splash on the street style, that for a long time won’t wear Hermes for everyday. But why? Too expensive? Yes it is,but not form these Russian girls and American billlionaires. Hermes clothes do not have a label name EVERYWHERE. Ok, when Mira Duma wears this black tweed costume with fur pompon, there is no double C on it, but everyone who is interested a bit in fashion knows it’s Chanel. What I love in Hermes is the classical touch and this simplicity in every cape, fur… That is so beautiful!
