My Fall 2010 RTW Men Collection favorites

Sorry guys. I’m running late. I’m 12 hours a day at the office. Not as much time as I’d want to feed my blog.

I tracked Milan & Paris Fall 2010 Men collection with delight. I feel like that there’s more creativity in Men Collection because they can’t be very creative. I mean girl wear long knee length short skirt or dress, full or cropped pants, kinda skirt-pant and everything in between while men have pants and bermudas … and shorts …

You see what I mean? And so I’m always in such a joy to scrutinize Men Collection, because it doesn’t look like a lot what is going on out there. Girls are allowed to be creative in big cities. I feel like gentlemen aren’t.

Madeleine Vionnet, a fashion purist

“What I did is not fashion. It was designed to last forever” said the woman known as the architect of dressmakers. I attended Madeleine Vionnet, puriste de la mode, exhibit last week at The Musée des Arts Décoratifs (107 rue de Rivoli, Paris, Mo Palais Royal). Thrice I was in Paris in the last months, twice I couldn’t attend the exhibit. You imagine how I was thrilled to eventually do it last week. The exhibit lasts until end of January 2010 and showcases more than 130 (fairy) dresses that Vionnet fabricated. I was stunned to figure out how modern the dresses are. They date back to the beginning of the century and they look like contemporary dresses. If you pay a visit, do not hesitate to take the guided tour to understand the era’s context and get full explanation about Madeleine Vionnet’s talent.
