Marni and Ladurée: For a Lavish Macaroon

Marni Ladurée

Is the greed a fault? Nonsense!

In such lovely boxes, created in limited edition for Ladurée, by Consuelo Castiglioni, the fashion designer of Marni, those macaroons are so tempting! 

XXS sized fashion victims:  forget them! For the others: let’s ourselves be tempted! What a great idea! 

From December the 1rst in Ladurée’s shops in Paris, London, Dublin, Tokyo and Switzerland.

Tribute to serial shoppers: here the exclusive designs of Marni’s bags and doll for the VOGUE Fashion’s Night Out. Next September 10, the international editions of VOGUE are partnering with designers, to create you an evening of an extravaganza shopping (thanks to recession) around the world: in Paris, New York, London, Milan, Tokyo, Berlin, Madrid, Moscow, Athens, New Delhi, Sao Paulo, Beijing and Taiwan. For example: the VOGUE Paris will organise events in the gorgeous avenue Montaigne, rue François 1er and avenue Georges V. Maybe you’ll have a chat with Carine Roitfeld about the ultimate trends. Or discover the exhibition of Jil Sander’s photos published in VOGUE for 30 years, in Jil Sander‘s shop. Then enjoy a cocktail at Diane von Furstenberg’s and continue at… What night!

Old Street & Bricklane, London

Yeah yeah sexy Moss is everywhere ? You nearly do an overdose : not me. Old Street : I feel a small twinge of sadness. I lived a bit there, not so far away. When there were just empty offices and an impressive number of underground artists, not called « Hype » yet. It was dirty and barely deserted… Today the district is unrecognizable: I love fast changes.

I haven’t got enough time to go to “my” more favorite place in London, the Tate Modern (Rothko’s exhibition from September 26 to February 1/09). To compensate for I went to many galleries: this one is also an advertising company…

A stop at Hassan’s shop and studio, he is a photographer, an art director and an interior designer and lives between London and Marrakech: www.hassan-hajjaj.com

Going to Bricklane, Club Row… Of course you’ve heard of Damon Albarn, Blur and Gorillaz singer: he might have a studio in this old school called Rochelle School (on the picture below: the big building behind the wall) and some other famous artists too. I read recently the A Fondation for the visual art and culture art development was settled to provide studios and an exhibition gallery to artists.

Here I am in Bricklane, very alive in the week-end and pretty dead today. Vintage lovers, you are actually at the doorstep of paradise !

  

Vintage for me, I enjoy it in pictures, not to wear. I do prefer buying fresh new outfit. I’ve just received the flyer of the next Viens Dans Mon Dressing in September in Bricklane. A week-end to discover twenty two coming up fashion designers: www.myspace.com/viensdansmondressing
