Maggio 2009 posts

The Giglio group always welcome new experiences, as it might be a fashion event it could as well be the opening of an art exhibition, Giglio always have the curiosity to try new adventures! Today we would like to share some images from the photo shooting of the new Fergi Ad campaign, made exceptionally in one of our fashion stores.

And that’s how the Giglio woman store transformed into a fashion studio for a day, lending its spacious spaces to Fergi and their Ad campaign. The campaign was shot by the photographer Luca Lo Bosco, who by the way is the author of the extraordinary homepages at Giglio.com. The clothes were chosen from the Giglio store, for the occasion, by the staff Giglio.

High heels have always had a special appeal, a synonymous to femininity and sensuality. This year, different to the commune heels, we find some really architectonic highnesses. Plateau, stilettos, chunky heels or full of strass and wedge heels appear to be created simply to challenge the sense of vertigo!

Subtle and curved towards the sole is the icon heel of Roger Vivier, evergreen of the world when it comes to stilettos. Miu Miu instead goes for bamboo this spring/summer collection 2009, where pumps with maxi platform and heel are made in cork. This last material can be find as well in the shoes of Christian Dior combined with shinny colours.

Definitely more rock and rule-breaking the style signed Gucci and the Iman sandals, half stiletto half gladiator. Super plateau for Giuseppe Zanotti, like so for Prada and its platform sandals in raffia.
 

At the Cannes Film Festival Roberto Cavalli dresses haven’t for sure been missing, the creations so desired by the celebrities designed by Roberto Cavalli has really made him the protagonist on the red carpet. In occasion of the “Paris, Not France” cocktail party Paris Hilton wore a floral printed maxi dress from the absolutely adorable Roberto Cavalli spring/summer collection.

 
Penelope Cruz chose a creation signed John Richmond for the Hollywood Domino Party in occasion of the 62°edition of the Film festival. The Spanish actress wore a white silk chiffon gown in mermaid shape with crystal decorated bodice.

Yesterday we saw celebrities wearing Alberta Ferretti in occasion of this 62° edition of Cannes Film Festival. Instead today we’ll focus on an other designer who has rather conquered the red carpet of this special event: of course we are talking about Roberto Cavalli.

His unique style has really been the protagonist at Cannes this year. Numerous stars have in fact chosen Roberto Cavalli dresses for the events and premieres.

For instant, Asia Argento, who we spoke about wearing Alberta Ferretti in the previous post. For the premiere of Vengeance and the Chopart Trophy Event the actress wore two different Roberto Cavalli creations.

In occasion of the Chopard Trophy Event celebrities as Eva Erzigova, Clotide Coureau and the model Moran Atias all wore Roberto Cavalli gowns.

Also Eleonora Abagnato presented herself in Roberto Cavalli for the Chopard Trophy Event as well as the premiere of Looking for Eric.

At the yacht of the designer himself the famous American singer Mariah Carey showed up in a chain printed Roberto Cavalli maxi dress looking splendid.

When speaking about the red carpet it’s impossible not to talk about fashion. On May the 12 th Cannes film festival started and celebrities have already given our eyes satisfaction with their extraordinary looks and beauties. Let’s start our discovery on the red carpets and the events it follows, with the Alberta Ferretti creations which have been chosen by many Italian stars and more.

Member of this edition’s jury of the cinematic event, Asia Argento, wore a pink delicious and refine Alberta Ferretti dress with grey details and a silver coloured Fendi clutch.

Among other local celebrities to wear Alberta Ferretti we find Alessia Piovan, that already at the Sanremo Festival chosen the Italian designer, now at Cannes wearing two marvellous creations. For the Chopard party the model wore a cerulean blue drape dress with the smallest bracelets. The second still blue but this time a slightly more eye-catching shade for the premiere of Up, also this one signed Alberta Ferretti. 

A fusion between the new ethnic spirit and the traditional research of refine materials are the base for the new Dior Savane Chic bags and accessories collection.

The particulars of the bags, created for this spring/summer 2009, are their so cured and polished look where every part of the bag’s surface is taken in consideration. It’s the small but so cured details, like the metallic buckles, buttonholes and decorations that makes these bags unique and so wanted.

One of the different versions is the open-worked honey coloured bag with gold buckles or the white elegant with its buckles silver coloured. Both beautiful, simply a matter of taste.

The really irresistible Iman Gucci sandal, is one of the principal models in the new spring/summer collection 2009 designed by Frida Giannini. This super feminine gladiator is 105 mm high plus the plateau.

Combined with a python printed blouse, also this one from the Gucci s/s collection 2009, and ankle long trousers Rihanna succeed in wearing these extreme high heeled sandals with such coolness. Except the ones chosen by Rihanna, the sandal is available in different colours and versions. Such as Rocky black leather with metallic details in gold colour.

Looking at these images the first thing that pops up in mind is the undeniable fact that Giorgio Armani really is the king of elegance and style when it comes to men’s fashion. What to say then when the creations of the Italian designer is combined with the beauty of a model like the exceptional actor Wentworth Miller.

Protagonist of the famous Television series Prison Break, the actor photographed for the Italian edition of GQ, incorporate to the perfection the simple but at the same time so cured and detailed style by Giorgio Armani. We are talking about the simplicity that’s created from true elegance, with attention to the details and the fabrics excluding exaggerations, a new essential and unique appeal has taken form.

Feminine and seductive, the new Cesare Paciotti shoe spring/summer collection 2009 is characterised by dizzy heels and high plateau. The shades are eye-catching like fuchsia and purple, precious as gold and silver and sophisticated like black.

As king of the collection we find the crocodile printed all over the sandals and pumps. But the real newcomer this spring/summer is the tattoo decorated sandal, elaborated with open-works, which give the shoes a fairy tale like and unique look.
