‘HISTOIRE IDÉALE DE LA MODE CONTEMPORAINE’ VOLUME I AT LES ARTS DECORATIFS

Les Arts Decoratifs opens a new exhibition tomorrow exploring contemporary fashion, as defined by fashion historian and curator Olivier Saillard in his recent book Histoire idéale de la mode contemporaine, a detailed analysis and chronology of the last 40 years of fashion shows. Saillard attempts to pinpoint the most influential designers that have moved fashion forward, the famous ones of course, but also the lesser known ones who experimented and pushed the boundaries. Split into two parts, ‘Volume I’ will showcase creations by some of the most emblematic designers from the 70s and 80s, including Yves Saint Laurent, Issey Miyake, Karl Lagerfeld, Claude Montana, Thierry Mugler, Yohji Yamamoto, Comme des Garçons, Azzedine Alaïa, Christian Lacroix, and Jean Paul Gaultier.

Bric-à-Brac Emmaüs

Charity organization Emmäus has inaugurated an innovative idea with a new city-wide network of 10 charity shops called ‘bric-à-bracs’ where you can go to drop off your old things and shop for bargains. The ‘one’s man trash is another’s treasure’ idea helps not only raise funds for the poor, but creates jobs to fight against poverty in Paris in a unique way, and the goal is to have a bric-à-brac in every main neighborhood of the city by the end of the year. The first store opened at the cavernous art institution 104 in January, and the warehouse-type ambiance of the 104 is the perfect setting for rummaging around for treasures amongst piles of second-hand furniture, kitchenware, electronics, all types of home décor and even clothing.

Starbucks launch two more beverage sizes this fall

Derived from Italian word for plentiful or small, the Plenta™ delivers coffee lovers record amounts of the world’s finest coffee beverages while the Micra™ delivers a quick and satisfying morsel of goodness.
Starbucks is also suggesting several subsequent uses for the Plenta™ cup post coffee enjoyment. Suggested usage options include popcorn receptacle, rain hat, perennial planter, lampshade or yoga block. The Micra also serves as a convenient milk dish for kittens, soft boiled egg cup or paper clip holder.

Levi Vintage

Chambray shirts are the hot trend right now, and none are better than this one by Levi’s Vintage. The 20’s shirt lives up to Levi’s heritage with a 100% English cotton broadcloth and selvedge edge detailing.

Levi’s Vintage is also doing some great things below the waist too with raw denim in keeping with its heritage.
With over a hundred an fifty years of history behind it, Levis is THE all American jean brand. The last several years have brought many new players into the American denim market and Levis has been quietly retooling itself and coming back as a serious player in the American-made jeans market. For one of it’s comebacks, Levis is using its classic 501 XX (which makes sense since the model marked the beginning of blue jeans). Since the original model was made to be worn over your street clothes while you worked in the mines, the limber mills or the railroad, or spent your day on a horse, the re-issued jean obviously has some tweaks like slimmer and straighter in the leg. The bottom fly red tab jean uses 14-ounce high end denim that is strong and develops its typical shades when washed. The new 501 XX are available now and you can order them.
