Uğurlu Lanvin kedileri

Steven Meisel'in Lanvin'in kampanya çekimlerinde kullandığı kara kedileri görünce saçınızı çekmeyin. Bunun yerine sonbaharda battal ebatlarda kolyeler ve öldüren platform topuklularla (aka killer heels) baş başa olacağımızı aklınızın bir köşesine yazın.
Neden Alber Elbaz'a tutkunum PS'i. Çok disiplinli olmasıyla tanınan Elbaz, tasarımlarını hisleriyle karıştırarak servis ettiği için elinden çıkan her şeye bayılıyorum. Hangi sayısı olduğunu hatırlayamadığım Acne Paper'da kendisiyle yapılmış bir röportajda sarf ettiği sözcükleri not aldığım defterimi buldum. İşte röportajdaki en etkileyici kelamları:
"When I started to work here in Paris something happened that made me skeptical about my ability to design. Everything that I really hated became best sellers. So I started to think that maybe I had the wrong taste. It kind of bothered me. So when I started at Lanvin, after a year and a half of thinking I decided to do things differently. I decided to only do what I love, with those I love. These are the only clothes that people cannot copy because when you work with emotion it's something that's authentic. And authenticity is elegance."
"I'm always fascinated by stories of people when they tell you: 'Oh my grandmother was so chic. She only wore Balenciaga and my mother kept all her Dior dresses.' I didn't have that. But I had fantasies and I had dreams. When you have everything, you can only think and calculate whether you have too much or whether you don't have enough. When you have nothing, you can dream. That's the only way to survive. When you come from the suburb, you come with a lot of dreams."
