The ambassador of Italy gave very high praise to prof. Lubomir Stoykov
Prof. Lubomir Stoykov’s new book World Fashion. Part Three: Italy is already a cultural and aesthetical fact.
During its official premiere at Vitosha Park Hotel, it was presented by H.E. Stefano Benazzo – ambassador of Republic of Italy to Bulgaria who is also author of the introductory words.
Mr. Benazzo notices: The work of Prof. Lubomir Stoykov has the merit to tell the story of the evolution of the Italian fashion through the stories of our biggest designers from the post-war period until the present, showing that fashion is most of all a result of the labour of really unusually people rather than of more or less inspired persons, more or less anti conformists.
I am grateful to Prof.

Winona Ryder hasn't had surgery - she just eats salad
The 'Stay Cool' actress, 37, has amazed fans with her line-free face but her make-up artist insists her youthful looks are all natural.
Kim Collea said: "She hasn't aged and let me tell you, she has had absolutely nothing done.
"She is a very healthy eater, and I think that is a big part of it. It sounds boring, but the girl eats a lot of salads. And you know those giant Big Gulps cups that most people fill with soda? She's got hers filled with water."
Winona prefers a natural look and only opts for make-up in neutral tones.
Kim added to People magazine: "When it comes to Noni, less is always more. With her I did a mix of Neutrogena, Chanel, and this stuff called Alison Raffaele which is a natural line. She likes everything to be natural. Her palette is all ivories, and beiges and very light browns."
Kim is a big fan of her friend and client's style, in particular Winona's ability to accessorise.
She added: "She has the most amazing handbags.

Kimono baby shoes collection - Born out of a recycling box
Hunting through the workshop recycling box, the idea for the Hetty Rose Baby shoes was born.
Ethical shoe designer Hetty Rose, who is known for creating beautiful shoes and accessories with stunning vintage kimono fabrics by hand, got together all the remains of fabric and leather scraps and came up with her new collection – for babies.
The Baby Shoes are aimed at 6 to 12 months and are made from vintage kimono fabric and brightly coloured leather for the padded soles. They are £25 for a pair, or £45 made to order up to size 2 years.
The designer said: “I have been asked by past clients if I made baby shoes and had just never got round to making the patterns. People can have bespoke baby shoes in any fabric and made to measure - if the baby will stay still long enough for me to measure them!.

Gisele Bundchen
Gisele Bundchen was delighted when she was approached by a model scout because it was the first time someone had called her "pretty".
The Brazilian supermodel - who has graced the covers of over 500 magazines and was named the world's best paid model after earning $25million in 2007 - was discovered at a Sau Paulo amusement park which she was visiting after completing a modeling course.
She said: "My sisters and I had driven 29 hours to go there. I couldn't be more excited! I was eating at a food court in the shopping mall, and this guy from Elite Model Management came and said, 'You should be a model.' It was the first time in my life that someone thought I looked pretty."
Gisele, 28, was initially shocked at the idea of pursing a modeling career as she had always been embarrassed by her lean appearance.
She told Vanity Fair magazine: "I was tall and really thin - the kids in school called me Olive Oyl and Saracura, which is a bird with really skinny long legs.

Jason Wu didn’t know Michelle Obama was planning to pick one of his creations for her Inauguration Day ball gown
The 26-year-old designer - who created the iconic white, one-shouldered gown Michelle wore to celebrate her husband Barack Obama becoming US President – only found out when he saw the ceremony on TV.
Jason said: "I was approached about designing clothes for her so I set to work and then delivered them to the offices myself. But I had no idea she was going to wear any of them. She looked fantastic and I love how it got people talking about fashion - without conversation we don't have fashion."
In March, Michelle appeared on the front cover of US Vogue wearing a magenta silk dress also designed by Jason, but he admits he is yet to be introduced to her.
He told Vogue.com: "I'd love to meet her - but it hasn't happened yet.

Giorgio Armani says his career is “linked for life†to Richard Gere
The Italian fashion designer claims his livelihood was transformed when his clothes were featured in Richard’s 80s movie ‘American Gigolo’, and credits the actor’s good looks with getting people interested in his brand.
He said: “Director Paul Schrader selected my designs for his film. The look was revolutionary for the time - when menswear turned elegant, with casual tailoring.
“Richard Gere was the dream actor and model - he had a sensuality in the way he moved. His character mixed rebellious unconventionality with style. Our careers are linked for life.â€
The 74-year-old designer is equally as enamoured with Hollywood star Jodie Foster, who he dressed for the Academy Awards ceremony in 1995.
He said: “Jodie and I have similar personalities - we both know what we want and are clear in our decisions. When we started working together, twenty years ago, I appreciated the fact that she declared, ‘I’m an actor.

Heidi Klum doesn’t care she has been branded “too heavy†for the catwalk
The German model laughed off remarks made by designer Woolfgang Joop – who claimed Heidi has “too big a bust†to be a runway model – claiming she pays no attention to negative comments.
She said: “Do I look like I care? I really don’t think about Joop or what he said. What am I supposed to say? It’s his opinion.
“It’s a life where everyone can say what they want to say and everyone can have their opinion - that is his. In this business you have to be fit, but I always try to be a good role model and not too thin.â€
Wolfgang launched an astonishing attack on Heidi, claiming there is “no way†she would ever be a catwalk success.
He said: “No way, she is no runway model! Heidi Klum is simply too heavy and has too big a bust. And she always grins so stupidly.

Rachel Roy hopes her New York Fashion Week collection will help women survive troubled times
The American designer is keen to do all she can to help women get through the current global economic crisis, and claims her new designs will do just that.
She said: “With so much going on in the world right now, I wanted the clothes to be secondary to what women are doing, the problems they are trying to solve.â€
Her collection included strong-shaped power pieces in delicate, feminine fabrics – successfully mixing supremacy with softness.
The models wore cropped wigs and strong make-up while wearing heavily tailored outfits with a distinctive lace lingerie touch.
She added to vogue.com: “That’s why it’s about monochromatic dressing.

Plunge, Balconette and Bandeau Party Bras and Basques by Panache Lingerie
Panache Lingerie is featuring teal as a colour. There are models in teal coloured satin with chocolate brown accents in the ribbons and black with a teal lining and very soft lace.
Another mysterious colour they use is called Coquette. The pants are sexy too with elasticated ruching up the back which helps define the shape of the cheeks, they feel very soft so even though they are hipsters they do not tend to cut into the hips.
The brand also offers a long line basque which really accentuates ones figure and a balconette bra set. Both the bra and the basque are true balconette bras, low cut to work under party dresses and yet give fabulous uplift.
The plum coloured bra called Harmony is such a flattering every day bra, the lace is beautiful and has give in it so as not to make a hard line across the bust which would show under clothes. The colour is warm for the winter months.

The "SHOT OF LOVE" by Manuel Bozzi’s cufflinks
A clear message of PEACE at ROCK’N’ROLL rhythm plays with harmony in MANUEL BOZZI’s luxurious cufflinks
The Italian designer MANUEL BOZZI, always following to his conceptual art that extends to the parody and the irony with unusual depth of contents, he realizes a mini-series of sterling silver cufflinks that represents typical war symbols like bullets and guns but originally reinterpreted with an important message of Peace.
The sterling silver - favourite metal by the designer – it becomes “animated" and it takes life expressing a message, a feeling which is the real feeling belonging from the aim of the artist. The born accessory is incredibly precious; it shows class, elegance and non - conformism with a great value more: a message of Peace.

A shoe for all seasons
Delicate embroidery and luxury Kimono fabrics, splashed in rich golden materials, were carefully sourced from small villages, tucked away in the depths of Japan, as part of shoe designer, Hetty Rose's next collection.
With a desire to create something different and unique, the designer found unusual fabrics and used them to create key significant pieces in strong, bold designs as part of her new collection.
Hetty said: 'It's much harder to find the highly detailed fabrics I've used in this collection and there is much more work involved in working with these heavier fabrics, but I really wanted to show that Japan has something more to offer than the traditional Asian fabrics we often see.'
Most of the designing was done when the designer was in Japan earlier this year, travelling between the three main cities sourcing fabrics. While travelling on the fast trains, she was inspired by the strong architecture, temples and huge skyscrapers.

A snug embrace, an exuberance of colours, a triumph of style, an irresistible source of temptation
A snug embrace, an exuberance of colours, a triumph of style, an irresistible source of temptation. This is the United Colors of Benetton women’s collection for next winter. Look after look, everything is unexpected, elegance, trend, originality and allure...
New Woman - The minimalist response to a legitimate desire for something new. The little textile or knitted coat is the passport to the future. Made of luxury materials, it clings to the body and complements knee-length skirts, stretch stirrup pants, cropped jackets and boleros. All in black and earth.
Sweet Military – Little roughness, lots of tenderness for the military look. There’s green, there are short jackets, parkas and cargo pants too, but our feminine soul surrenders to soft skirts, little dresses, crossover knitted tops, and to lilac, apricot or alabaster ponchos. Soft fabrics, silky cottons and wash-tempered leather.
Hot Road Folk – Demureness on a motorbike.

Time for a change from the old square scarf
As a designer/seamstress for more then 30 years now, I have created, designed, and sewn many Items, but my love for scarves grew into a real passion. I discovered that wearing a scarf not only adds dimension to what you are wearing, but it also redefines and compliments your wardrobe! I started making my own scarves, I received so many compliments that I decided to make scarves and hold scarf shows, teaching other women how to wear them. However, I found the traditional square scarf to not only very limited in ways to wear, but I also found it too complicated and time consuming in folding and tying. If you weren’t going to just fold it in a triangle and hang it around your neck, it took too long trying to figure out how to wear it, or how to tie it, or drape it, by that time you`re ready to throw it back in the drawer and forget it.

Acne Womenswear a/w 2008 - youthful and mischievous
Imagine the fierce and powerful matador Juanita Cruz, battling a heaving, bloodied bull in Mexico in 1945, in a full skirt. Then consider the contemporary matador champion Christina Sanchez in her traje de luces, her bullfighter’s suit of lights, a heavily decorated jacket with extreme shoulders, and the now customary Capri pants. These are the heroines that have inspired Acne’s a/w 08 collection, with their fearlessness, courage, strength and creativity. The collection is eclectic in style, with tough leathers combined with soft cashmere, transparent mesh with heavy velour and futuristic neoprene with fine silks. Aspiring to be as youthful and mischievous as the female matadors, with their audacity to question the conventions, Acne’s a/w 08 collection features a masculine T-shaped silhouette, with broad shoulders and a nipped-in waist, unexpectedly combined with the most delicate of skirts, bursting with frills, tucks and folds.

A spontaneous style yet with fashion detailing
Brilliant colours, dynamic style, young glamour, international mood. Four definitions which, in a harmonious whole, sum up the UCB collection for the next spring and summer season. A spontaneous style yet with fashion detailing, true to itself, while incorporating lifestyle changes.
New Woman, or formalwear from 8 in the morning to 8 in the evening, with strictly classic items featuring low waists, ultra-narrow hems, basic colours and stripes in all widths and all directions. Outerwear, long or short, has trench details; the shirts, the current must-haves, also influence the cut of the t-shirts and minidresses which become shirt dresses.
Her like Him, basic men�s styles with feminine charm. Neutral tones with a touch of rosewood. Slouchy trousers top the bill yet when it�s the turn of skirts they must be fluid and floaty above the knee.

La Perla Black Label collection - intense and striking sensuality
Crystal crosses and references liberally taken from the texts of medieval copyists. Like a Gothic novel, the La
Perla Black Label collection recounts the tale of a lady imprisoned in an ancient castle on account of her flaming
desires... Garments with an intense and striking sensuality. Neo-Gothic references to depict beauty and dark passions.
COLOURS: pitch black, flaming red.
SEXY PROHIBITIONS
Shiny satin and daring transparency effects, in which the lightness of lace is overshadowed by fascinating tricot-effect knitwear. The geometric figures of the lace on the impalpable tulle have an aggressive allure. A LITTLE HEART PENDANT, silver coloured, reads "MADE WITH LOVE", personalising the garments. An unexpected touch of sweetness in a totally black look.
OBSCURE PASSION
Seduction hovering between eroticism and romanticism: LUREX, but in an embroidered version with Gothic characters for the Black Label logo that lights up the bra cups and the back of the briefs.

The future, science fiction and space in Sisley Limited Edition
The extremely stylish and chic characteristics of the Sisley Limited Edition collection are perfectly reflected in its very elegant symbol, a black feather.
The collection takes its inspiration from different worlds: the future, science fiction and space as imagined or seen in the movies are blended with memories of historical costume, from the Middle Ages to today.
Thus metallic fabrics and studs, high-tech materials and precious silks, jewel buttons and leather thongs, zips and buckles, trench belts and obi belts, sweetheart necklines and cut-out necklines, floaty chiffon and pressed-cloth, coated jersey and handmade tricot work all together in perfect harmony.
A sophisticated world which comes to life after dusk and is dyed in night shades, cut with metallic flashes: deep and matte black, cosmos blue, mercury, asphalt and stone grey, the gloss of lam and #233;, of lurex and of coated leather.

Black-jack collection A/W 2007-2008
Think of the jazz age, of night clubs taken by storm by an entire population thirsting for merry-making. Think of the first spoken movie in history (The jazz singer - 1927). Emancipated women wearing flappers, flaunting their lack of inhibition. Dusty dressmaker's shops. Tailor-made clothes. Think of gangsters and their double-breasted elegance. Think of speakeasies, the clandestine bars where people met and drank alcoholic beverages despite the Prohibition. Think of gamblers.
Cycle's AW0708 collection draws its inspiration from that history, from that concept, from that feeling.
Men's.
Super-slim trousers or loose fit and high waist, in fabrics like mini-jacquard wool and linen, or wool and viscose hound's tooth. 3-button flannel jackets with wool and cachemire tricot details; tight-fitting caban jackets that look sober but are to be worn with a touch of irony. T-shirts that turn into elegant shirts in filo-di-scozia jersey or Bengal stripes.

Mutations, evolutions, transformations in Benetton Playlife collection
Mutations, evolutions, transformations. These are the keywords and guidelines for the new direction of Playlife in the collection for next autumn and winter. Sportswear here is regenerated and is born to new life to tell a totally new story. An overall vision first and a close-up look later reveal creativity, a will to change, exploration and a stimulating ability to reinterpret a style, revolutionising it completely.
Thus the most classic of the classics, College, daringly introduces for him a padded bomber jacket in resin-coated cotton with Prince of Wales check, yarn dyed and with wool cloth badges embroidered in gold.

Sisley - Cinema mon amour
Sisley launches a decidedly star-struck advertising campaign for autumn-winter 2007/2008, perfectly in tune with the collection's movie mood.
Looking at the pictures, we cannot fail to wonder which films inspired Terry Richardson's voyeuristic lens.
As she seductively embraces young men in Sisley Uomo fashions, is Stephanie Seymour, a beauty icon of the 90s, alluding to Mrs Robinson's smouldering eroticism?
And does the naughtily innocent glance of the women's campaign protagonist – a sweet Heather Marks with flame-red nails – hint at Lolita?
Questions that go unanswered, left to linger in the movie memories of those who look at these highly-charged sexy pictures shot in a New York hotel suite.
A backdrop well-suited to Richardson's creativity. It goes without saying that he doesn't mimic but reinterprets his film recollections.

Sisley - F/W 2007/2008 Accessories collection
For the past couple of seasons Sisley has been focusing on perfecting top-quality accessories, well made and highly structured, emulating fine craftsmanship from times gone by. The collection for winter 2007/2008 is born of a classic concept, bon ton for her and dandy for him, resulting in highly creative and on trend results, a significant innovation on the general scene.
The main collection of bags is the jacquard all-over “S” motif, in shiny/matte fabric and high-gloss waxed material in basic colours. The designs also combine the jacquard with other materials – plain and croc stamped leather, suede, fur and rhinestone – for the handles, flaps, fastenings, buckles and pure decoration. The shapes are convex, rigid, average size, bowling bag, cylinder and case.
The ultra-classic messenger bag and the tote with two handles and a much longer shape are available in plain croc stamped leather.

Undercolors of Benetton Spring/Summer 2007
Next summer’s underwear and beachwear collection moves in new directions. Not just because of the obvious style changes that distinguish the seasons, but for a decidedly creative guiding principle. Undercolors proposes styles, materials, colours, decorations and atmospheres, but matching the various pieces, colour schemes, the mood of a lingerie set or beach outfit depend entirely on our individual flair and creativity. The collection is divided into four main themes, but each piece is totally individual and can be mixed and matched freely in unusual, untrivial ways, reflecting associations perceived and enhanced by individual taste.
Sweet days. Romanticism with a hint of ironic disenchantment: tiny flowers, pastel colours, broderie anglaise and silk voile slide almost unwittingly towards pop-art flowers and little animals, ethnic seamless, striped cotton. At the end, a hippo, which is almost a cartoon, tells us that a real friend is a real treasure.

SISLEY FALL/WINTER 2007/2008 WOMEN’S COLLECTIONS TRENDS
Wall Street. A tough NYC look is created by a hard-hitting smoky black wardrobe, with a sophisticated sex appeal. A selection of contrasts offer various options: Short and boxy trench coats or long, sleek and elegant ones with fur collars. Trousers are either wide with many darts or tapering and very slim. Sweaters are either wide one piece garments or figure-hugging with parts in quilted nylon. Shiny minis or Bermuda shorts in cool wool.
Top Gun. For the determined woman there is a provocative rethink of the tracksuit and the aviator jacket. Slim-fit down-filled jackets and jogging shorts, form-fitting jeans with striped sweaters. Knits are romantic and relaxed, and shirts are arabesqued and shiny like a fuselage. The main colours are air force blue denim and khaki.
Gosford Park. A soft and feminine look for the country. Faux fur or hand knitted boleros, frock coat jackets in waterproof cotton or wool worn with long trousers or shorts.

New York's RoxiesShop.com Receives U.S. Patent for Inventive New Fashion Tote Bag
Staten Island, NY (PRWEB) May 18, 2007 -- RoxiesShop.com announced this week the firm has just been granted a U.S. Patent for its acclaimed new fashion tote bag. Dubbed the "Beach Buddy," the creative tote bag is fashioned from a large beach towel that ingeniously fastens to the shoulder and waist to let the wearer carry everything needed for a day at the beach.
Beach Buddy looks natural and attractive slung around the shoulder and waist of a beach goer, making the bag the most important invention to grace summertime beaches in generations.
"I got the idea while watching beach goers struggle with towels, chairs, umbrellas, and everything else, sometimes making multiple trips from the car to their spot on the beach. It's hard to enjoy yourself let alone look fashionable when you're dropping your possessions on other beach goers," said Ricardo John, Owner/President of RoxiesShop.com.
The Beach Buddy fashion tote bag was awarded Patent Number 7,210,177 on May 1, 2007.

Are Babies the Solution to Global Warming?
It's in the news every day in publications from New Delhi to New York—global warming. There are many things adults can do to impact energy issues and conservation but how can babies do something? “Babies are the perfect way to spread a conservation message such as Stop Global Warming,” says Ellen McNeill. McNeill, along with her husband, Michael co-founded www.MyConservationBaby.com.
MyConservationBaby.com offers “Baby Apparel for the Eco-Friendly Baby.” Eco-friendly messages such as Protect the Environment and Save the Forests are silk-screened on baby onesies and toddler tee shirts. “Our goal is to help create awareness of conservation issues and the importance for each of us to take whatever action we can to positively impact the world around us,” says Ellen McNeill.
The concept of conservation messages on baby clothes is a hit with young moms.

Scientists prove nothing beats natural fur
Further to the call by Japanese designer Che Imai for young women to wear real fur for the sake of their skins, Reuters may be interested to know that this was confirmed by scientists in a study conducted in Germany.
Recent findings by the Bekleidungsphysiologisches Institut Hohenstein e.V. confirmed what designers and consumers already knew - that in the battle between natural and man-made fabrics to keep us warm and comfortable, natural fur is the best.
The study compared a faux-fur coat with two natural furs: coyote and mink. The natural fur coats were far more insulating at all temperatures than the faux-fur, and also had the advantage of allowing the wearer’s skin to breathe, in the same way leather does. Natural fur is softer, warmer and more wearable than any faux fur and much better for the skin of the wearer.
Across the four major fashion weeks (London, New York, Paris and Milan), fur was featured in over a hundred collections for the Autumn/Winter 07/08 season.

After the virtual-catwalk show in the VIP-Room Paris on 4th march, presented Edith A and acute;gay her new collection “dual body” fall-winter 2007/08 also during the Fashion Week Tokyo at 14th march in Izumi Garden Gallery Tokyo/Japan.
The inspiration of the new collection is based on the principles of geometry.
Edith A’gay uses transparent organza in pliss and eacute; and cuts in multiple layers which produces a visual geometrical effect and pattern. The material of the cloth is high quality silk in the basic colours deep red, white, black and silver-grey. The fashion was again completed by the wonderfully new Edith A’gay shoe-collection. These shoes are manufactured in the same cloth as the outfits in finest quality and in very feminine silhouette.
The collection ‘dual body..’ is to be understood as variable for a flexible conversion procedure of the outfits – reversible, convertible shapes – furthermore the outfits can also link a body to another body.

Sisley Young
SISLEY YOUNG
SPRING/SUMMER 2007
The collection uses decorative motifs to distinguish the three girl's themes and the three for boys. While the outfits' styling is “minimal”, their rich graphic decoration and countless colour schemes are explosive, to say the least.
GIRL
Silver and Gold Girl. Sophisticated colours emerge from jacquard motifs with lurex yarns, delicate sequin embroidery, beaded fine muslin. Pale backgrounds glow with abstract decoration around the hems.Sophisticated little girls of gold and silver.
Fashion Punk Girl. White and black with red accents define this edgy range for little girls with an attitude. Optical patterns emphasise the snazzy look: white embroidered scrolls and floral sprays on black backgrounds, or black on white backgrounds and lots of horizontal or vertical stripes.
Flowered Girl. Meadows in full bloom, vast expanses of wild flowers, abundant showers of printed or embroidered petals, stems and leaves.
