Shopping: Saint Tropez Style

A handful of streets that lead off from Place des Lices, the main square which houses a street market, very similar to Forte dei Marmi’s, on Tuesdays and Saturdays: this is where you’ll want to go shopping. Rue Gambetta, Place de la Garonne, Rue Francois Sibilli, Rue Georges Clemenceau and Rue General Allard are lined with designer boutiques such as Dior, Hermès, Céline, Alaìa, Chloè, Rykiel, Dolce&Gabbana, Gucci, Valentino Bulgari, Armani, Versace, and many more. Not big boutiques, but offering very carefully selected items and a lot of deluxe limited-edition pieces. …

Saint Tropez: all the charm of the Côte d’Azur

Have you ever watched… And God Created Women? It was summer, 1956, and Saint Tropez came into the spotlight, along with the star of the film, Brigitte Bardot, who purchased a villa there, the famous Madrague.  Film shooting began on May 3 and this small fishermen’s town became known to the world. The story of Saint Tropez’s fame, however, started many years earlier, in the early 1900s, when the town became an extension of Paris’s Rive Gauche, as the summer holiday retreat for Juliette Greco, Boris Vian, Sartre and Picasso. …

Shiny and attractive with glitter trends

We are going to look as shiny and attractive as a box of chocolates in our sequin dresses, but also jackets, pants and jumpsuits made with sparkling materials such as crystals, Lurex or new glitter fabrics. All-over fabrics are the most popular choice: according to Alberta Ferretti and Margiela, we are going to shine from head to toe. Louis Vuitton pairs Lurez with trimmings. …

Long dresses and sheer fabrics

Long dresses are back and with the body covered up down to our ankles we can still flash a bit of flesh by wearing sheer fabrics: tulle, chiffon, organza and also glossy and reflective hi-tech materials. Underwear on show, of course, by Blumarine and Dolce&Gabbana, but also by Fendi, Maison Margiela and Paco Rabanne. Miu Miu puts see-through pieces over more opaque layers. Very practical and chic! …

Fringes trends: sexy and feminine

I love watching fringes swinging around the body, it’s so sexy and feminine. We will be all swaying like soft waves with very long multicolored and multi-material fringes by Balmain, Calvin Klein, Céline, Erdem, Loewe, Nina Ricci and Paco Rabanne. Smaller-sized but swinging all the same are those by Fausto Puglisi.  …

Bewitching Feathers

Like birds-of-paradise: we were bewitched by Yves Saint Laurent’s stunning models, who swayed down the runway in black mini-dresses full of feathers and we are trying to recreate their charm with the colored feathers by Rodarte, Nina Ricci, Balmain and, of course, the  supreme Yves. …

Long dresses: not only elegant, but easy-going, fluid and versatile

Long dresses are not synonymous with elegant evening gowns anymore: we’re going to see women in daylight wearing skirts to the ground – even soft overlapping panels – increasingly easy-going, fluid and versatile. Colored and floral dresses by Marni, Balenciaga, Philosophy by Lorenzo Serafini are paired with thin and invisible sandals or, on the contrary, with bold accessories. …

Choose your favorite bag

The belt bag, never a favorite with the fashionistas, is all the rage on the runways. The trendiest one is the Balenciaga logo belt bag. Bags, with or without fringes? As you please, but always add a touch of ethnic style and plenty of embossed leather such as by Bottega Veneta. Two must-haves: Valentino’s waist-bag, which can be worn around the waist or like a small backpack, and Chanel’s plexiglas purses, simply lovely. …

Shoes…cowboy boots make a comeback

Cowboy boots make a comeback, but high-heeled and in precious skins such as reptile and crocodile. Seen at the Givenchy and Chloé shows. High-heeled sandals laced up to the knee by Altuzzarra and lace-up fishnet-style boots by Dior.  Both very sexy. Fly to the moon on the Enterprise with the Perspex boots by Chanel and Balmain. Ladylike kitten heels by Bottega Veneta, but in order to play down any formal look you need Dolce&Gabbana shoes. …
