Savage Beauty

It is undoubtable that Alexander Mcqueen is an artist and a visionary. They day he lost his life, the fashion world lost a lot. So the Metropolitan Museum of Art has organized a gala for the grand artist. A hundred of his most iconic pieces will be exposed in the museum for everyone to discover til the 31st of July. The exhibition is called Alexander McQueen: Savage beautyand will gather creations belonging to most of his collections highlighting his "dramatic, barroque, ornamental and painfully beautiful style" (vogue.com)

If I could I would buy myself a ticket right now to NYC and experience the beauty of his artwork in person, so if anybody has the chance the experience it and recommend they attend the exhibition !

Es indiscutible que Alexander Mcqueen es un artista y un visionario. El día que perdio su vida la industria de la moda perdio mucho. Por eso el Museo de Arte Metropolitano a organizado una gala para commemorar al gran artista. Alrededor de cien de sus piezas más icónicas seran expuestos en el museo hasta el 31 de julio. La exposición fue bautizada Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty (Belleza Salvage) y reunirán la mayoría de sus creaciones y "podrán en relieve su estilo dramático, barroco, onírico y dolorosamente bello." (Cecilia Casero, vogue.com)

Si pudiese me compraría un ticket ahora mismo e irme a la bellísima cuidad de NY para presenciar la grandeza de sus diseños en persona, osea que alguno de vosotros puede ir os lo recomiendo !

Balmain SS2011

With every season my love for Balmain grows stronger. This season it's all about the rock 'n roll and I couldn't be happier with this edgy collection.
Christopher Decarnin toughed out his collection adding studds to biker jackets and blazers and pins and holes to strap t-shirts and skinny jeans. The bleached skinnies and tie-dye shirts are defenetly the center of attention, turning something so hyppie into something so punk. Even tough, in my opinion the collection has some ressemblences to Isabel Marant's F/W 2010 collection, it's defenetly much more punk but keeping true to his rock 'n roll soul.
I for one loved the collection !

Traducción: Balmain me enamora con cada collection que estrena en la pasarela. Esta temporada su esthetica rock 'n roll se ha vuelto más hardcore añadiendo techuelas increíbles a las americanas y las biker jackets y agujeros entornadas de imperdibles en los pantalones y camisetas. Pero el centro de attención para mi fueron los pitillos blanqueados y las camisetas tie-dye, que eran tan hippie, Christophe decarnin a sabido apropriarse de ellas y convertirlas en algo mucho más punky !
