“Jeanne” by Beatrice Brandini

“Party” by Beatrice Brandini

Wandering in the city I photographed the outfits most precious ones you would feel the protagonist of a fairy tale, but also the most original,  hoping to make you come some idea. However in the end it does not matter if what you wear will be precious and luxurious, it will be the last year, or the market under the house. Feel a “Princess” (or Prince) and probably will become.  Happy New Year to all! Read more →

“Beautiful” by Beatrice Brandini

If there is an item that I would like to own more than a piece of jewelry or anything else “important” is (together with the library of Sottsass, the “Carlton”), the Proust chair by Mendini.

Poster of the exhibition “David Bowie is”

“Ziggy” Beatrice Brandini

I could not visit the beautiful exhibition organized by the Victoria & Albert Museum in London “David Bowie is”, but I could see the film that the director Hamish Hamilton turned filming the show (you can not go and see something that you would love to be crazy, for logistical reasons, economic or working, so go to the movie theater and sit comfortably see it, almost as if I were there… Oscar for those who have had this idea!).

“David Bowie is” is the path along 50 years of one of the most interesting, eclectic, creative and talented characters of our time. Read more →

The trends that have developed for Spring Summer 2016 involving five themes of the season. Each of them brings together the range of colors, inspirations cultural and artistic (art, design, inspirational images ..), the silhouette of the catwalks, those arising from street style and personal designs that interpret the theme. It is 11 pages per theme for a total of 55 pages and a great introductory offer unmissable.
