METAVERSE AND EU

Here I am caught in the spider’s web of Copenhagen Fashion Week. First step on the circle of solitude where I was slowly sliding into the labyrinth of the inhuman. Here is the search for the “Kilo Dior” in “Kilo ugly” mode for a more historical-artistic fashion approach, praising an original craft. Extravagant and unique silhouettes are created each season by founder Amalie Røege Hove. We don’t question her Master’s degree in textile design from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, but rather her years of experience as a knitwear designer mentioned on her website.
But, on the other hand, I can’t shoot them too much because they were kind enough to invite me. I was squeezed in between two Scandinavian blondes who were cocooning like a Sephora store on fire. Dressed as if they had dressed Corinne Masiero in Chic, you know the image of Captain Marleau in stilettos. Continue reading
In a constant wait and search for hope within dystopia and poetry, menswear label ISO.POETISM BY TOBIAS BIRK NIELSEN, arises from the Danish mist with its artefacts crafted in Copenhagen, Denmark and manufacturing in Italy. Continue reading
Hero of a night or hero of a life? Yesterday or the night before, it doesn’t matter we fly on the Paradis Latin river for “On Aura Tout Vu”. The night is blue, with a strange scent of clove, under the cold and slippery cobblestone, we were off to conquer the night and its aftermath. Dressed in an innocent vision to control the power of the image that will fly on our page and explore this world where the “Avengers” Heroes are everywhere and reign. Out of this Fashion Week soiled with all its evils, the two designers represent in our eyes freedom and humanity alone.
They both walk to the sound of the bell of time, like Lancelot whose pride made the ripe wheat of the mythical campaigns to sow hope, where the wrongdoers of preconceived ideas are rampant.
Their destiny was forged in the flame of a pyre of racism. Heretic yesterday, they will be the holy heroes of tomorrow to claim the great look of the fashion of yesterday. They are among our favorite designers because they innovate and shake up conventions without making us believe that the Black Power of the suburbs is a tsunami on which we must absolutely surf.

Without Josse’s Couture, without the grace of an intelligent heart, it would be inaccessible to us forever. And without his sensitivity, the misery of the world, too great, too deep, would be unbearable. Men have barbaric ideas, and sometimes the snakes, in the depths of the heart, hide from us the beauty and sweetness of some.
Of a designer and his work, we can know at least this, that both walk together in the most perfect labyrinth that one can imagine a long winding road where their destinations merge with their stories and with an ever present variant, the solitude of the designer. Thus, the silk organza is a very appropriate material to sculpt the vision of happiness that one wishes to find, after the sadness of a confinement. While the life of before was moving away, this one seems closer and more real, on the spinning wheel of the past silently spinning unknown patterns so complex but beautiful, wounds that seem to be able to close an era.
Suddenly, the light reveals itself and strikes my ardent pupil in a single jet; the three-dimensional embroideries explode in various trompe-l’oeil ornaments. The leather molded on the bodies, I look with a pleasure burst of freshness at the hooped sleeves sublimated, by small hands, called “Apollo of Versailles”. In the ambient candor of winter, surrounded by bimbos, I admire the dresses that advance like feathered bushes, and more particularly, this dress of the sun woman, for women who radiate, made from gold ornaments and festooned points.
It is the poetry of the bizarre and the surprise in a prose of imagination à la Elsa.
The surprise of others is always the test of the true in the designers. The whole sky finally stars for a next night of dreams to die for, where everything is luxury, calm and pleasure.

The French fashion designer Thierry Mugler passed away on January 23 at the age of 73. Passionate about dance and theater, trained in architecture, the designer from Strasbourg had joined Paris at the age 21 in 1969 where he began in fashion design. After working for several brands, he signed his first collection in 1973. He met with success in the 80s before catwalking at the Haute Couture Week in the 90s.
In 1997, Thierry Mugler sold the brand that bears his name to the Clarins group, which will continue to develop the perfume and ready-to-wear business. He recently revealed that he had suffered a serious stroke in the gym, which apparently involved several facial reconstruction operations.
The transformation of the body is often in the designers as in their customers an act for the creative well-being. I remember him on rue aux Ours getting out of his convertible car with his Shar Pei under his arm, already furious about the traffic jams in the neighborhood. Continue reading
Pharrell Williams quits Chanl for LVMH and strode into Kenzo’s fall 2022 show in Paris on Sunday wearing almond-shaped sunglasses rimmed in diamonds and with an emerald studding each temple, teasing a new design project with Tiffany & Co. He said the sunglasses were the “first of many things that I’m gonna do with Tiffany.”
Asked about the collaboration, he retorted: “No, it’s different. It’s a partnership.…It’s about seeing things differently.” Pressed for more details about the glasses, and the partnership, Williams demurred: “I can’t give it all away now. I don’t want to go too much into detail, OK, because we’re here today to celebrate my brother Nigo.”
He was referring to the Japanese streetwear guru who was making his debut as the new creative director of Kenzo. The show attracted the likes of Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, Julia Fox, Pusha T, Tyler the Creator and Shygirl to a chilly, covered passage near the Place des Victoires. Continue reading
Like a meteoric rise, it took him only a few years to conquer the fashion world, with exclusive collaborations with Nike, and … The consecration comes when he dies. Virgil Abloh brilliantly shook up the codes with his signature street style, while preserving the heritage and know-how of the French trunk maker.
In the front row to witness it all, Vuitton boss Bernard Arnault, and most of his children, along with the entire elite of black artists and musicians. Continue reading
It’s the beginning of Paris Fashion Week, with still a little parmesan sprinkled on my jacket, I fall from the style to the blonde Bimbos, so appreciated by the French luxury brands, who appreciate that they do not write anything at all. Graphic trend where cabalistic signs of Catholicism are printed to transmit us the word “the cross” but it was the banner in subliminal image, for a Devil at the beginning of the show.
Fashion should be a form of escape, not a form of imprisonment, the two designers told us. Its culture is the juxtaposition between masculine and feminine, modernity and historical know-how, romance and rebellion, sustainability and creativity.
You talk about religion and thinking it doesn’t imprison anyone is the message marketers give us to stigmatize and really (“Con Fu Cius. I’d make it shorter on its DNA “move on” and put your outrage back on the pissing machine. EGONLAB will probably have tomorrow the honors of Vogue, with this maxim “fun or interesting!”, as the English say when they do not like it at all. Welcome to Paris Fashion Week. Continue reading
Fashion journalist, New York Times bestselling author and former Vogue creative director and editor at large André Leon Talley has died at age 73, corona indeed.
Prior to the release of his 2020 memoir “In the Chiffon Trenches,” Talley told, “People have done things to me that I have forgiven them for. There are things in the book that you can’t imagine the racism, everything. You don’t even understand how much I’ve gone through.…”
He was best known for his time at Vogue where he was fashion director between 1983 and 1987, before becoming its creative director and later an editor at large. A front row fixture known for his flamboyant style and storytelling, Talley was a close confidant of Karl Lagerfeld,
Upon being notified as a recipient of the de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres of France in April 2021, Talley said, “Of all the education and experiences that I have had in this world, I think this represents a great deal to my race and my people. Continue reading
Prada and the new fall-winter 2022 collection by Miuccia Prada and Raf “Si monster”, our favorite designer, the one who, at Dior, had raised the brand with brio! Day three of Milan Fashion Week, in the Fondazione Prada, for a fashion where leather and technical materials reign supreme, Waffen-SS style for trench coats with XXL shoulders.
Prada invited no less than a dozen movie stars to walk the runway! We could see Kyle MacLachlan, then Thomas Brodie-Sangster, Asa Butterfield, Jaden Michael, Damson Idris, Tom Mercier, Louis Partridge, Ashton Sanders, Filippo Scotti, but also Jeff Goldblum who closed the show. It was necessary to sublimate the pieces of clothing taken from the workers of Renault in 1960 with N.B.C. “Nuclear Biological Chemical” suits. For a collection, which bet on new trends, it is missed this year, because its flatness is absolute. Finally, the only interesting thing about this show is that it ended up stopping. When Ralf wants to be Nino, Continue reading
