One walking be the Printemps department store in Paris will be admired by Chanel dolls installed at the displays. Lovely dolls were inspired by Chanel Paris-Moscou collection and really represent the russian spirit.

Too much of Louis Vuitton

December 20th, 2009 Daria 2 comments

I doubt that if the founder of the world most popular fashion house was still living he was impressed by what his successors are doing. Countless collaborations with Murakami, Marc Jacobs who is definately becoming way to crazy and some other stuff that just pieces off. Of course, when we speak about fashion markets we can’t count on Asia, but look at other brands such as Chanel, which makes its Asian invasion wisely and without pushing. Plush toys and ridiculous paintings! Come on, even the Japanese don’t need that anymore. What all fashionable people do really need is a sophistication and a notice of even little beauty in what famous brands are doing today.

Why do I need to even talk about such unprecious things? Well, I saw a picture today, that just showed me once again how far does LV with all its crazy collaborations go. May be at some point they really do need to stop and continue making their classy things as travel tranks.

You really need to be stupid enough to sleep in such a bedroom. But if it was made even for an exhibition they might think that there are such people who’d like to have such a bedroom. Oh, what am I thinking about? Of course there are such people! And that’s a pitty not even for modern fashion, but for a modern society.

Louis Vuitton winter garden

November 30th, 2009 Daria No comments

Saks 5th Avenue in New York displays Louis Vuitton winter garden to promote Cruise 2010 collection.

Isn’t it absurd? Certainly with winter cold we want to be back to spring again and see blooming flowers but as even Christmas hasn’t knocked to the door yet it’s a bit early. Even if I’m on my way to islands on winter holidays I prefer to feel the time and enjoy winter displays as long as I can.

Nor that those displays aren’t fabulous they are as almost everything created by the house of Louis Vuitton, but fashion is becoming way too fast in changing seasons.

Space resort

November 7th, 2009 Daria 1 comment

In 2012 we all will have opportunity to stay in Space Hotel. Hrdly all of us because three-night stay will cost 3 million euros.

The first space hotel will be opened by a private space tourism company, Galactic Suite Limited.

Galactic Suite plans to transport its travelers to space via Russian rockets from a spaceport to be built on a Caribbean island. The project was firstly financed by anonym oligarch with $3 billion. The wjole project is still in design while there are 43 people already who have put their reservations to stay in the hotel. The mysterious $3 million trip to the hotel will take one day and a half and guests will undergo an eight-week training course in the Caribbean prior to launch.

Luxury resorts are not something special nowadays and obviously rich people want more extreme and unusual ways to spend their money. Even if they stay in a hotel, they’re not satisfied with Earth-based Ritz or Plaza.

Murakami’s Cartoon for Louis Vuitton

June 24th, 2009 Daria No comments

Another surreal cartoon about girl in dream world of Louis Vuitton is released this year. Looks like someone’s love for Louis Vuitton has no any borders :) Definitely LV – Takashi Murakami relations are special.

In September we’ll be pleased (I mean those whom LV bags and luggage have influenced to be LV-victim) by the book “Louis Vuitton: Art, Fashion And Architecture” by Takashi Murakami.

Despite Murakami’s “multicolor” role (the collection of bags and accessories with milticolor monogram firts appeared in 2003) in creating image of Louis Vuitton, I prefer to be old-fashiond wearing accessories with classical monogram.

This amazing building is the result of Murakami’s influence. Lighting, amazing, but not usual Louis Vuitton building, that will always remind me of Asia :)
