Lors de cette fashion week, Charlène et moi avons pu voir pas mal de designers portugais dont Luis Buchino. Pour sa collection Printemps-Eté 2013, Luis Buchino nous invite dans un univers épuré où la majorité de ses créations sont monochromes. Pour casser cette pureté, Luis Buchino joue sur les matières brutes comme le coton, la soie ou encore le lin. Luis Buchino joue également sur les coupes avec des superpositions, des pliages et les découpes. Au niveau des couleurs, la collection est duale entre couleurs douces (blanc, beige) et couleurs fortes (cuivre, bleu métallique), le tout dans un esprit résolument féminin et élégant. Je souhaite remercier L'appart PR pour l'invitation ainsi que Jean-Luc Ruffinel pour les photos.
During this fashion week, Charlène and I had the chance to see several fashionshows of portugese designers including Luis Buchino. For his Spring-Summer 2013 Collection, Luis Buchino invited us in an uncluttered universe where the majority of the pieces were monochromatic. To break this purity, Luis Buchino played on the raw materials such as cotton, silk and linen. Luis Buchino also played on the cuts with folds, overlapping and cutout. Concerning the colors, the collection is dual with soft colors such as beige and white and statement colors (brass and metallic blue) which results in a resolutely feminine and elegant collection. I would like to especially thank you L'appart PR for the invit and Jean-Luc Ruffinel for the photos.
On ne dirait pas comme ça mais la semaine de la mode, c'est assez éreintant. Notre dernier défilé à moi et Charlène fut celui de Fatima Lopes. Ce fut l'un des plus beaux comme pour finir cette semaine de la mode en apothéose. Pour son défilé Printemps Ete 2014 appelée Odyssey, Fatima Lopes nous accueille dans les galeries de l'hôtel des Invalides. L'Odyssey a une signification assez spéciale car le restaurant qui a ouvert dans l'hôtel où j'ai effectué mon dernier stage s'appelle l'Odyssey. La présentation fut à la hauteur du lieu. Thème grecque oblige, la déesse vêtue de blanc immaculé et ornée de sa couronne est le thème central de la collection. Pour moderniser cette déesse, Fatima Lopes joue sur le contraste des matières, sur la transparence et les longueurs des silhouettes. En résulte une collection graphique et résolument féminine. On retiendra néanmoins les chaussures qui sont de loin les plus originales de la fashion week, les mannequins marchaient pieds nus avec un talon en forme d'éclair.
It doesn't look like so, but fashion week is exhausting! Our last fashion show with Charlène was the one of Fatima Lopes. It was one of the most beautiful shows we ever attended, it was perfect to end the fashion week. For her Spring Summer 2014 Collection called Odyssey, Fatima Lopes welcomed us in the galeries of the Invalides. Odyssey has a special meaning to me since the restaurant that opened during my last internship was named Odyssey. The presentation was beyond amazing. As the theme was greek, the godess all dressed up in white and her crown was the center of the collection. To modernize this godess, Fatima Lopes played on the materials contrast, transparency and the lengths of the silhouettes which makes the collection stands out by its graphical aspect and its truly feminine spirit. The shoes should be pointed out also as they are the most original shoes we saw during this fashion week, the models were walking barefoot with a heel in a flash shape.

Les accessoires étaient aussi à l'honneur lors de ce salon Première Classe Printemps Eté 2014. Parmi les designers d'accessoires japonais, Charlène et moi avons fait la connaissance du créateur Inari, jeune marque de lunettes de soleil. Inari a commencé sa carrière aux Etats-Unis avant de revenir au Japon pour travailler chez un opticien à Nagoya. En 2013, il lance sa marque eponyme. Audacieux et moderne, les modèles Inari ne sont pas des accessoires, mais des pièces aussi importantes que les vêtements, des statements pieces à eux tous seuls.
Accessories were also under the spotlight during the Premiere Classe Spring Summer 2014 Tradeshow. Among the designers of Japanese accessories, Charlène and I got acquainted with the creator Inari, young brand of eyeswear. Inari began his career in the United States before returning to Japan to work for an optician in Nagoya. In 2013, he launches his eponym brand. Audacious and modern, the Inari sunglasses models are not accessories. According to him, they plays a part as much important as clothes in fashion, they are true "statement pieces".
