Berluti: French Synonym for Refined Style, Elegance and Incomparable Craftsmanship

Fashion Outfit Post January 10, 2025

My dear fashionistas, welcome to another fashion story on the Mr.M blog in the new year 2025! I hope you are well and ready for a new dose of fashion. At the very beginning of this post, I would like to take the opportunity to congratulate you on the New Year and Christmas holidays. I wish you all the best in 2025, primarily good health and perhaps most of all what we need in life – a little luck and may all your wishes come true, the small ones as well as the bigger ones! Today I’m going to introduce you to a new friend of the Mr.M blog, an unusual luxury French brand that I’m sure you’ve had a chance to hear about by now if you love the world of fashion – Berluti.

Berluti is a well-known French fashion house founded in 1895 by the Italian maestro Alessandro Berluti, which produces men’s shoes, leather goods, and men’s clothing. Today, Berluti is owned by the LVMH group.

How was the Berluti fashion empire created? Mr. Alessandro Berluti was born in 1865 in Senigalia, a village on the Adriatic Sea. There he learned the trade of a carpenter from a local craftsman. He also acquired knowledge in the field of leather. Alessandro Berluti left Italy at the age of 19 and went to France. He first spent several years on the road with a troupe of actors for whom he made stage shoes. He settled in Paris in 1895, as a shoemaker. The Universal Exhibition of 1900 in Paris was a turning point in his career and a special opportunity for Mr. Berluti to expand his clientele and conquer some new markets. He created models for several prominent personalities of the time, some of them were: Isadora Duncan, Helena Rubinstein and Elizabeth Arden.

After the First World War, the Berluti Oxford shoe model was offered to all lovers of luxury footwear. This model was made from one piece of leather, and the seams were invisible thanks to the three-eye method. These shoes were polished, which gave them a shimmering color, like a mirror. The Duke of Windsor was one of the loyal customers of Berluti shoes. This fashion story was continued by his son Torello, who succeeded him in 1928. He opened the first boutique workshop at Rue du Mont-Thabor 2 under the name “Berluti, luxury shoemakers”. As the boutique eventually became too small, it was moved to 26 rue Marbeuf during World War II. The Berluti brand created the uniforms for the French Olympic and Paralympic team for the opening ceremony of the 2024 Summer Olympics.

In 1959, Talbinio Berluti launched “luxury ready-to-wear shoes”, offering lower prices. With this, he expanded Berluti’s clientele. He was joined by Olga Berluti, née Squeri, who would learn the shoemaking trade with him after completing her apprenticeship in the workshop. During the 1960s, Berluti sold abroad and counted Warhol, François Truffaut and Yves Saint Laurent among his clients.

A little later, in 1970, Olga succeeded Talbini at the head of Berluti and was Berluti’s artistic director from 1961 to 2011. She supported the modernization of the house and its growth. The turning point in the work of this brand was in 1993, when the Berluti brand was bought by the LVMH-Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton group. In the early 2000s, against the background of a simmering conflict between the Gucci group and LVMH, the Italian brand Gucci copied two of Berluti’s flagship models, each creation of which was registered: the sanctions for the “act of counterfeiting” were severe, and Berluti refused to make a compromise.

Olga will continue to take over the artistic direction of Berluti until September 2011. Berluti’s international development is progressing: the brand has more than thirty boutiques in major world capitals. Received the title of Chevalier de la Legion d’honneur from Bernard Arnault, by decree of December 31, 2012.

Starting from July 2011, Mr. Alessandro Sartori, who developed his skills at Ermenegildo Zegna, takes over the position of artistic director of Berluti. Diversification in clothing production began in January 2012. Alessandro Sartori presents the first collection of 400 pieces. In the meantime, the executive director was changed and Mr. Antoine Arnault was appointed in 2012. LVMH’s purchase of Parisian tailor Arnys in mid-2012 allows for a line of bespoke suits called “Berluti by Arnys”, an acquisition that was followed a few months later by that of Anthony Delos.

In September 2016, Haider Ackermann was appointed artistic director until April 2018, when he was replaced by Chris Van Asche.

The company’s communication is based on leather (specifically Venezia leather) and its fit. Bespoke or ready-made, Berluti shoes are presented “raw” and then coated with a specific patina similar to Japanese lacquer. This patina consists of essential oils, shoe polish and water. Berluti’s advertisement says that each custom shoe requires 250 operations performed in their workshop and nine months of creation.

From the 1960s onwards, Olga Berluti proposed leather as an extension of the line. In the 1990s, she decorated her creations with scarification, piercings and various forms of tattoos.

The fame of the Berluti brand is built around Olga Berluti and her high-profile clients: Andy Warhol, the Duke of Windsor, Jean Cocteau, Jules Brinner, Marcel Achard and Claude Francois are among the famous clients. The Berluti brand is also present in the cinema. Olga was nominated for Caesars several times. She won Best Costume for Arthur Joffe’s Harem in 1986. A few years later, in 1995, she won the David di Donatello Award for the film Farinelli. A pair of Berluti boots from the 1990s was cited in the Dumas affair, a scandal involving former minister Roland Dumas.

The Berluti brand is also known for its marketing event, the “Swann” club, named after Marcel Proust’s dandy. Once a year, it offers its loyal customers group “skating”. Its members met for the first time in 1992 at the Hotel de Crillon.

In today’s post, you have the opportunity to see an interesting piece from the latest autumn-winter Berluti collection for 2024/25, which is a cashmere jacket in a beautiful honey color. The cashmere camel jacket is a classic cut with brown leather details and is a must-have for every style-conscious man. The jacket is made of the finest cashmere and is filled with down. What I can say after trying on several outfits, this jacket definitely gives every outfit a special elegant and understated touch, which will definitely make you stand out wherever you go.

We continue today’s fashion story in Italy with another new friend of the Mr.M blog, a visionary fashion brand that proves that age doesn’t matter! BoB Company is a menswear brand born in Prato, the heart of Tuscany.

The BoB brand was created by designers who did not want to be satisfied with men’s fashion dictates, but wanted their customers to explore real masculine elegance worthy of dreams. The philosophy of the BoB Company brand is quite direct and simple: clothes for men who like to stand out, to be different, original and maybe sometimes a little unpredictable, but who did not want to hide under a mask. Imagine how boring a white polo shirt is when you can add an original and discreet touch to it: embroidered flowers, colorful stitching or a touch of color. This is a brand that changed the rules of the game in the fashion world!

Men who have chosen BoB creations are ready to adopt a new state of mind whose thinking is a little outside the mold or box, a little artistic, possessing a new idea of independence and freedom. Polo shirts with unusual bright motifs, jackets with hand-embroidered details or sweaters in bold colors are produced with joy and happiness by the BoB team in the heart of Tuscany in the cradle of fashion – Italy.

In today’s post, you have the opportunity to see a sweater from the latest Autumn – Winter BoB collection, which, in addition to the interesting work of the braids, has another addition, a material similar to the lining of the jacket that allows you to feel extra warm, so you can also wear some lighter jackets due to the exceptional thermal insulation in the form support on the back. Apart from being an unusual fashion piece, it is also extremely practical. The color is beautiful and easy to blend, so it can be worn with all current winter colors.

If you want to stay up to date and find out what new products Bob Company has to offer us this season, follow them on Facebook and Instagram.

Everyone who follows the Mr.M blog knows that I am a big fan of quality and interesting shoes, regardless of whether they are sneakers or elegant shoes, I always try to pay maximum attention to fashion details such as footwear. Today we’re meeting again with a famous French house whose creations I adore and you’ve seen before on the Mr.M blog.

I got these Christian Louboutin shoes from my dear friends Mytheresa Man, a shopping platform. The Louis Flat High-Top model in question is made of real python leather in the shade of chocolate brown.

If you want to find interesting fashion pieces and a special collection of shoes, you can find them on the Mytheresa online shopping platform where all fashion lovers can find something for themselves!

There is no person in the world who cannot hide the joy when you feel the smell of the new Italian leather. Today, we are once again hanging out with the Italian family workshop for handmade Restelli gloves, a place where the art, tradition and beauty of handicrafts meet every day, which is the true definition of the Italian style and way of life in general.

Making gloves is not only a job but also a real art. Passion, emotions, tradition and knowledge have been passed on to the third generation after 100 years! Raffaella Restelli has fully accepted the challenges of the new fashion era in which the market and the way of selling have changed with deep respect and belief in tradition and a love for lasting masterpieces!

In today’s post, you had the opportunity to see Restelli gloves made of special peccary leather. These luxury leather gloves are made of the highest quality leather. The lining of these gloves is made of cashmere.

Restelli gloves are not valued with money, but with tradition and history full of love and patience that are priceless.

My dear fashion lovers, we have come to the end of another fashion story in this year 2025, where together we discovered the beauty and splendor of fashion with the iconic French fashion house Berluti, the beauty of urban cut with the Italian brand Brunello Cucinelli, the visionary Italian knitwear brand BoB, as and the unique quality of Italian craftsmanship with the iconic leather goods brand Restelli, partners with whom fashion stories are a real adventure. I sincerely hope you got some inspiration for your ideal winter outfit!

Max Mara: Ludmilla, An Iconic Coat with a Flowing Lines, Hand-Stitched with Two Layers of Cashmere…

Fashion Mrs. Mom November 22, 2024 6 Comments

My dear fashionistas, welcome to my first Fall fashion story on the Mr. M & Mrs. Mom blog pages this season. I sincerely hope that this season I will justify your trust and that I will be able to inspire women in their prime to change the way they look at life and introduce novelty into their everyday life through my vision of fashion. Today I will do my best to present you some new autumn fashion novelties that have arrived in my wardrobe, with which we will open the Fall – Winter season on the Mr. M & Mrs. Mom blog.

This unexpected hobby of mine and writing fashion stories became interesting to me because I noticed that people found my stories interesting and inspiring. Honestly, I did not expect my writing of fashion stories to experience such success and I am immensely grateful for your wonderful messages, as well as your selfless support.

When I start something, I always think carefully whether to accept something because every challenge is a responsibility, and so is my writing of fashion stories. I was skeptical at the beginning of this year because of all bad things after cosmetic surgery had happened, whether I would even be ready to embark on the adventure of writing spring and summer stories, but at the persuasion of my family, friends and my psychotherapist, it turned out that this type of work was healing for me and that I somehow managed to prove to myself with this challenge that I can push the boundaries regardless of the difficulties that may arise during the process. Everything in life requires self-confidence, courage and self-love so that a person can achieve higher goals. This autumn I am more prepared and slowly getting used to the new situation in my life.

I believe many of you have heard about MYTHERESA shopping e-commerce on Mr. M & Mrs. Mom blog, but I would like to introduce you to this online fashion paradise. MYTHERESA is one of the leading global luxury e-commerce platforms operating in over 130 countries. Founded as a boutique in 1987, MYTHERESA launched online in 2006 and offers ready-to-wear, shoes, bags and accessories for women, men and children, as well as lifestyle products.

The MYTHERESA online store was founded in 2006 by Susanne and Christoph Botschen and is connected to the multi-brand store in Munich (formerly the THERESA store). In 2014, the THERESA store and mytheresa.com were acquired by the American luxury retailer Neiman Marcus for €150 million, giving Neiman Marcus greater access to international customers and strengthening their e-commerce technology.

During Neiman Marcus’ bankruptcy in 2020, the company began the process of spinning off Mytheresa as an independent entity. In January 2019, Mytheresa launched a children’s clothing category, and in January 2020, Mytheresa Men was launched. In May 2022, a new homeware and lifestyle category followed. In 2022, Mytheresa expanded its luxury offering to include home decor and lifestyle products.

The novelty they presented this year is the launch of certified second-hand watches from over 25 luxury brands, such as Audemars Piguet and Cartier, in cooperation with the Swiss jewelry and watch company Bucherer. As a global retailer, Mytheresa operates in 8 languages: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese and Korean.

In today’s post, you will see some fashion pieces from brands that you can find on the MYTHERESAonline shopping platform, such as: Max Mara, Loro Piana, Saint Laurent and Tod’s.

We start today’s fashion story with old friends Mr. M&Mrs. Mom of the blog – Max Mara. Max Mara is a world famous Italian fashion brand. It was founded in 1951 in Reggio Emilia by Mr. Achille Maramotti. This legendary brand sponsors and awards the Max Mara Women’s Art Award. Achille Maramotti started creating wardrobes in 1947, and officially founded the Max Mara fashion house in 1951. How did the brand name come about?

The second word of the brand – “Mara” was derived from Mr. Maramotti surname, while “Max” referred to Count Max, a local legend, who was rarely sober, but always so classy and stylish! Mr. Maramotti was one of the first to see that the future of women’s fashion lay in the mass production of designer quality clothing. He also wanted to put his Max Mara brand at the top in front of the names of individual designers, although he hired Karl Lagerfeld, Jean-Charles de Castelbajac, Dolce & Gabbana, Narciso Rodriguez and Anne Marie Beretta. The company is still in the hands of the family and is one of the best family fashion businesses in the world.

The Max Mara group has 35 brands in its fashion empire, of which the Max Mara brand remains the heart of the company to this day. Other brands include Sportmax, Sportmax Code, Weekend Max Mara, Marella, Pennyblack, iBlues, MAX&Co. and Marina Rinaldi. An interesting information is that Marina Rinaldi is a brand founded in 1980 and named after the greatmother of Mr. Maramotti.

Max Mara is my favorite brand because it absolutely meets my criteria when it comes to wardrobe, which are: quality, interesting models and cuts, good selection of materials, as well as fine processing of them. I’m sure you’ve all seen by now how much I love cashmere, so this Ludmilla coat is my new fashion love that I’m sure I’ll wear for a long, long time. This coat is made from the finest pure tobacco cashmere, hand stitched in Italy with two layers of soft cashmere.

Made of hand-stitched pure double cashmere, the Ludmilla coat shines like satin. Its shine is the result of a carding process that releases impurities from the fabric, making it flawless to the touch and visually. Finishing the coat with a custom binding that makes it unique, it epitomizes a relaxed attitude and attention to detail. This coat is made for true connoisseurs, when one hears the call for special luxury or the art of choosing the best without boasting, the instinctive answer is Ludmilla.

A timeless piece from the Max Mara collection, the Ludmilla coat epitomizes laid-back appeal that doesn’t sacrifice luxurious fabrics and impeccable attention to detail. Reinterpreted in 2016 and reintroduced in all collections since then, it is one of the iconic pieces of Max Mara style. It stands out with its generous silhouette that hugs the body, and can be adjusted thanks to the coordinated belt. Kimono sleeves and large patch pockets emphasize its understated, refined luxury.

In addition to the excellent material processing, the model of this coat itself is modern and unusual. Depending on what you plan to wear with this coat, it can be nicely combined with elegant outfits, as well as with some relaxed everyday casual outfits. In addition to the coat, gloves and a bag are also part of the Max Mara collection. This bag is part of the old Max Mara collection, but because I really wanted to have this bag, the Max Mara team found it in their archives and I got this wonderful bag because I had it on Pinterest as my favorite piece, but that’s why the gloves are part the latest Max Mara Fall – Winter 2024 collections.

I would like to write a small note for all interested ladies who want to own a Ludmilla coat. This coat is significantly oversized and I chose an Italian size 36, but it’s a little big on me and I think I should have taken an IT34 size, since I lost a lot of weight and I weigh significantly less, so I wasn’t sure which coat size would suit me, that’s why I took the IT36 size, and my son urged me to take the IT34 number, honestly right now I feel a lot of guilt for not listening to him.

Certain pieces from the Max Mara women’s collection can also be found on the MYTHERESA e-commerce shopping platform.

If you want to know more about the Italian fashion house Max Mara and discover what the Maramotti family has prepared for the new fashion season, visit their official online store and follow them on Facebook and Instagram.

Loro Piana is an Italian company specialised in clothing and textile products. This fashion house is considered the largest producer of cashmere and also the world’s largest artisanal company processing the luxury fiber.

The Loro Piana company has three divisions (textile divisions): a division that deals with the production of high-quality materials using precious fibers such as cashmere and baby cashmere, vicuna, linen and merino wool, a division that deals with the creation of luxury fashion items(production and distribution of men’s, women’s clothing, footwear and fashion accessories) and the interior design department – production and distribution of interior design products.

In today’s post you have the opportunity to see two interesting pieces from the women’s Loro Piana FW24 collection, which is just a small part of my favourites this season because of its distinctive elegance and my love for bright colours and soft pastels. Drap color pants are perfect for all occasions and can be easily combined with other colors, they are made of cashmere. On the other hand, a Loro Piana beige roll made of the finest cashmere.

Certain pieces from the Loro Piana women’s collection can also be found on the MYTHERESA e-commerce shopping platform.

Vince: Understated Concept of Everyday Luxury Essentials…

Fashion Outfit Post August 16, 2024 5 Comments

My dear fashionistas, welcome to a new fashion story on the Mr.M blog. I hope you are well and ready for a new dose of fashion. We start today’s fashion adventure with new friends of the Mr.M blog, an interesting fashion brand from California that cultivates a concept of everyday luxury essentials that I’m sure you’ll love at first sight!

Vince is a brand that creates “understated luxury from California”. Their design atelier was founded in Los Angeles to capture the legendary freedom and effortless allure of coastal living. Enduring materials – rich, buttery leather, plush cashmere, glowing silk and the softest wool, are executed with exquisite precision and nuanced details that make each piece feel like a personal gift.

A quiet sophistication is found in all their creations which are true little heroes, moving with ease through spaces, seasons, occasions and phases of one’s life. All creations differ in texture, color and pattern. Since the brand’s inception in 2002, every addition to the women’s and men’s ready-to-wear, fashion accessories and home collection has been made to inspire timeless confidence, allowing us to think more clearly and creatively to help us create an image of true luxury and simplicity. This is the conceptual vision and work concept of the Vince brand.

Vince is a brand that uses unparalleled quality materials and meticulous craftsmanship to create their products, which set the foundation for their women’s and men’s collections. All yarns and fabrics are sourced from Italy, Japan and beyond to produce the highest quality cashmere, silk and leather that is resistant to wear and tear and weather. Saturation is enhanced and softened until perfect color is achieved, and detail is refined down to the last stitch.

Clothing items are created to live in, to spend time wearing each silhouette, but also to feel good in that wardrobe. What materials does the Vince brand use in the production process?

Cashmere
Vince has been making items from their signature, ultra-soft cashmere with the same Mongolian and Chinese cashmere goats and in the same factory since they were founded in 2002. Sourcing only long fibers for the softest sweaters possible, over 20 years of working with their cashmere factory has allowed them to customize every step of the process for the most luxurious and essential products, weight, color, tension and finish.

Their design team pays close attention to every detail of the design: every seam is precisely made, every edge is fully formed – the sign of a true luxury sweater.

Silk
Vince’s signature silk was chosen for its unparalleled luster and dream weight: supple, fluid drape delivered in a feathery feel. The crepe lining provides a hint of structure for the fit that follows, but never clings to the body. Their silks continue to grace Vince’s timeless blouses, bias-cut dresses and effortless skirts in an ever-changing spectrum of hues.

Leather
Vince design team hand-select soft, buttery lambskin leather in Italy, France and Turkey for the fewest seams possible and a natural, semi-matte finish to ensure lasting quality. Each selected piece lends refined drape to Vince’s luxurious skirts and blazers, and supple structure to more sculptural trousers and blouses.

In quietly unexpected hues and classic neutrals, Vince leather is often lined with soft twill for calibrated comfort and always finished with color-coordinated hand-dyed trim. The result: forever wardrobe essentials that stand the test of time, trends and taste.

Pima Cotton
Pima is the softest and smoothest cotton because of the extra long cotton fibers used to make it. The Vince team further refines by calibrating the ideal weight, as light as possible for the most elegant finish with enough weight for opaque coverage in Peru, where they have been producing their pima cotton for over a decade.

Fewer longer fibers also make pima cotton extra shiny and durable, able to maintain the color and integrity of the material through multiple washes to keep it looking as beautiful as when it was purchased.

In today’s post, you have the opportunity to see two products from the latest Vince SS24 collection: a hand-painted silk shirt and lightweight navy linen trousers. Both pieces are so perfectly designed that you can make the most of the summer period, unhindered without the obstacles that sometimes the clothes themselves can make more difficult.

This shirt is definitely one of the fashion pieces that marked this summer due to its texture and print that was obtained by hand painting silk. On the other hand, the simplicity and elegance of timeless linen, as well as the dark color itself, is just an addition to this refreshing summer outfit.

Shirt: Vince

Watch: ENVISION

Trousers: Vince

Sneakers: Lanvin via MYTHERESA Men

We continue today’s fashion adventure with new friends of the Mr.M blog that you had the opportunity to meet in one of the previous stories. ENVISION is an interesting watch brand that is proof of Italian perfect design and Swiss precision! Envision is an Italian brand born from the vision of its founder and designer Alessandro Bambini in the productive heart of Italy – Modena, whose passion for watchmaking leads to the creation of wristwatches made in Switzerland with highly innovative designs.

ENVISION aims not only to create watches, but also to design wearable works of art that can seamlessly integrate into the rhythm of modern life and evoke emotions even in the brief moment when we look at the time on our wrist. The ENVISION brand originates from Modena, in the productive heart of Italy, the land of elegance and innovation, with the aim of creating unique and stunning timepieces that embody the art and craftsmanship of Swiss watchmaking.

In the vast and competitive landscape of watchmaking, creating something truly unique and new is an extremely ambitious challenge. That is why every ENVISION model is the result of many years of study and research. However, that alone is not enough. Offering products with avant-garde lines without ensuring that the quality meets expectations would be a challenge lost from the start. That’s why ENVISION makes sure that every watch it creates meets the high standards they set for their brand, while ensuring timely and attentive customer support.

Today I will introduce you to Prisma, the first creation of the Envision brand that deeply embodies the vision of this exceptional Italian watch brand.

A masterful blend of Italian design and Swiss technology, Prisma represents the pinnacle of watchmaking art. Packed with a Sellita SV200-1 automatic mechanical movement tuned by the Envision team, a stainless steel case and sapphire crystal, a Prisma Sapphire Blue blue dial with a sunray finish and an integrated stainless steel bracelet, this watch is the perfection of luxury in every detail that will grace your wrist. This watch represents an uncompromising choice of style and precision.

The 316L stainless steel case surrounds a high-quality sapphire crystal that features a prismatic cut that captures light beautifully. Each reflection creates a play of light, color and shadow, giving the watch a unique and attractive look.

An expansive dial with a sunburst finish, applied indexes expertly crafted with alternating polished and satin finishes, and glossy dauphin hands all contribute to a unique wrist experience unlike anything we’re used to.

What adorns the Envision Prisma watch model is the innovative integrated bracelet that extends around the case. Each link, crafted with care and dedication, is a continuation of the ends of the case, encompassing the wrist until it reaches the opening clasp that subtly displays the brand’s engraving. Each component, created with care and passion, undergoes rigorous checks by the Envision expert team to ensure quality and durability.

Inside each Prisma’s case beats the Swiss automatic heart, the Sellita movement, which needs no introduction. With 26 jewels, a frequency of 28,800 A/h set internally by the Envision team, and a power reserve of 38 hours, it ensures Swiss reliability and precision.

In addition to Prisma Sapphire Blue, Envision has 3 more colors in its offer: Prisma Space Gray, Prisma Emerald Green, Prisma Ruby Red. In the following fashion stories, I will also introduce you to the Envision Prisma Sapphire Blue!

I’m sure you want to stay updated and find out what all the models Envision watch brand has prepared us, visit their official online store and follow them on Facebook and Instagram.

Lanvin is a French luxury fashion house based in Paris. Founded in 1889 by Jeanne Lanvin, it is the oldest French fashion house still in operation. Since 2018, it has been a subsidiary of the Lanvin Group based in Shanghai. The House of Lanvin was named after its founder Jeanne Lanvin in 1889. Lanvin was founded in 1867 and opened its first store in rue du Marche Saint Honore in 1885.

Lanvin made clothes for her daughter Marie-Blanche de Polignac, which began to attract the attention of many wealthy people, who were looking for creations for their children. Soon Lanvin was making dresses for their mothers, who were included in the clientele of her new boutique on rue Faubourg Saint-Honore in Paris. In 1909, Lanvin joined the Syndicat de la Couture, marking her formal status as a couturier. The Lanvin logo was inspired by a photograph taken of Jeanne Lanvin while attending a ball with her daughter in 1907. As Albert Elbaz said, “It is not a lion and it is not a horse. It’s mother and daughter, I find the logo very emotional.” Since 1923, the Lanvin empire has included a paint factory in Nanterre.

When Lanvin died in 1946, ownership of the company passed to her daughter Marguerite, who shared the management of the company from 1942 with a cousin, then an expert in the fashion industry. Since Marie-Blanche de Polignac was childless when she died in 1958, ownership of the House of Lanvin went to a cousin, Yves Lanvin. From the mid-1960s until the takeover by L’Oreal in 1996, Lanvin was led by Bernard Lanvin. The export department was in the original factory in Nanterre where all the perfumes were produced and bottled. The administrative seat was in Paris. In 1979, Lanvin bought its independence from Squibb USA and Paris organized a major PR promotional tour in the United States that same year. Midland Bank bought a stake in the company from the family in March 1989 and hired Leon Bressler to restore the firm’s faded image. However, in February 1990, Midland folded and sold Lanvin to Orcofa, a French holding company run by the Vuitton family.

In today’s post you have the opportunity to see their new model of Bumper sneakers that are completely made in white leather. This model exists in various variations and combinations of materials and each sneaker is unique and unusual.

Fashion Diary of Mrs. Mom: Fratelli Rossetti reinventing the Rules of Feminine Elegance

Fashion Mrs. Mom Outfit Post July 30, 2024 5 Comments

My dear fashionistas, welcome to my new summer fashion story on the pages of the Mr.M blog this season. It is a great honor and pleasure for me to have been able to inspire women in their prime to change their perspective on life and introduce novelty into their everyday life through my vision of fashion. Today I will try my best to present you some new fashion novelties that have arrived in my wardrobe.

This unexpected hobby of mine and writing fashion stories became interesting to me because I noticed that people found my stories interesting and inspiring. Honestly, I did not expect my writing to experience such success and I am immensely grateful for your wonderful messages, as well as your selfless support.

We start today’s fashion adventure with old well-known friends of Mr.M blog – Fratelli Rossetti. This Italian footwear brand that I’m sure everyone recognizes for their comfortable shoes that are made from the highest quality materials Fratelli Rossetti footwear is fantastic for the reason that this brand makes classic shoes that are elegant and simply unbeatable, shoes for all time! You had a chance to get know more about their shoes and leather goods in my fashion stories from Qatar last year.

What is the story of this brand? In the middle of the 20th century, more precisely in 1945, Mr. Renzo Rossetti started his story from scratch, where he worked alone to cut leather for several types of sports shoes. His shoes were sold at the famous Brigatti store in Milan, one of the few remaining stores of its kind in the city. After a few years, Fratelli Rossetti saw success, but, wanting to develop further, they transferred the brands and equipment for this special production to Atala Sport in Padua.

So they decided to start their story again from the beginning and decided to switch to the production of classic shoes. Those were the years between 1952 and 1957, which witnessed the orientation and acquisition of new skills in the creation of women’s ballet flats and elegant, simple men’s footwear characterized by extremely flexible and high-quality workmanship. All this led to the creation of a small collection of men’s shoes with contours that differed from the various styles sold at the time. Renzo Rossetti consequently engaged in work that demonstrated his aesthetic sense and artistic perfectionism.

The story of the Fratelli Rossetti company is an inspiring story of a successful Italian family business that opened its doors in 1953. This is not just an ordinary company story, but a family story: the founder, Renzo Rossetti, and his wife, Lisetta, were dedicated to their work all their lives. The Fratelli Rossetti company is currently run by the second generation of the Rossetti family, the brothers Diego, Dario and Luca, who, due to their different roles and by developing their own different skills, have successfully brought their company to its 60th anniversary, always in search of quality and united by their passion with strict respect for tradition.

Fratelli Rossetti has a long tradition of “big little innovations”. In this company, tradition and quality have always gone hand in hand with insatiable curiosity and commitment to innovation. From the introduction of tassels and the invention of shoes designed to be worn without socks, to stylistic innovations and the launch of the “masculine” style, to the application of colors in unique chromatic shades. It was Renzo Rossetti who emphasized the importance of embracing new materials, styles and shapes: as early as the 60s, he was already experimenting with different color combinations on leather. Today, the company continues its research and development activities thanks to the knowledge of its craftsmen and the creative spirit of the styling department.

Fratelli Rossetti in its collections for women has timeless classic lines that you can find in their offer, some of the models are: Hobo Sport, Magenta, Hobo, Brera, Green Side.

In today’s post, I present to you two exceptional pieces from the latest Fratelli Rossetti SS24 collection, which are rose gold woven slippers and a bucket bag. These sophisticated, exclusive rose gold braided soft leather slippers are crafted from thin strips of leather, which are expertly stitched along the upper, creating a Hobo flower in the toe area. These shoes have a comfortable and soft leather sole.

In addition to these unusual slippers, my outfit today is also adorned with the famous Fratelli Rossetti bucket bag, which is the trademark of this Italian house of luxury leather goods and shoes. This bucket bag with an unusual combination of colors like milk, soft pink and rose gold makes every outfit special, chic and versatile at the same time. Crafted from soft leather with a nappa effect, the bag can be worn in multiple ways with a removable handle and shoulder strap. This is a real ladies handbag, dimensions: height 25 cm, length 24 cm and width 15 cm.

If you want to stay freshly updated and find out which models of shoes and leather goods the Fratelli Rossetti brand has in its offer, visit their official online store and follow them on the social networks Facebook and Instagram.

Dress: IKKS

Earrings: Vintage earrings from personal collection

Bucket Bag: Fratelli Rossetti

Slippers: Fratelli Rossetti

We are moving from the Italian fashion scene to the French one and I am sure that many of you have at least one of their creations in your wardrobe – IKKS.

IKKS is a French ready-to-wear brand founded in 1987 by Gérard Le Goff in La Seguiniere. The brand was part of the Kidiliz Group for several years before being sold to the White Knight LBO France fund in July 2015. It is one of the first French players in the ready-to-wear medium and high-end range with wide distribution.

How did the IKKS brand get its name? Gérard Le Goff originally wanted to call his mark “X”. As this name was transferred to clothing originally intended for children, the designer chose the name IKKS, which is actually pronounced “X”.

IKKS is undertaking a sincere process of transformation, a comprehensive transformation, which will be applied to every aspect of the company, retaining the strength anchored in their DNA and improving the weaknesses that are observed today. They engage in a resilience approach because IKKS Group management believes that everyone has their share of responsibility. Sometimes it is also difficult because you have to be able to make firm decisions even if their implementation is not easy. But it’s never too late to question yourself and try to do things right. One of their key initiatives is the decision to stop using one of the biggest scourges in the textile industry: virgin polyester.

A transformation has begun to achieve this ambitious goal by 2025. The IKKS teams are sure that it will be difficult, but they are also sure that this decision will have a big impact on their company and that they will have to make certain compromises, but they feel that it is their moral duty and responsibility to show everyone that it is possible. IKKS wants to change without leaving their DNA, without claiming to be something they really aren’t. Making choices means doing nothing more, and that’s something the IKKS team won’t hesitate to do in the coming months and years.

The responsibility of IKKS concerns the entire ecosystem which consists of: People, the core of their business. That is why IKKS works hand in hand with its partners, suppliers and employees. Traceability, a major issue today, to secure their processes and control their supply chains to guarantee product quality. Their materials are becoming more and more ethical. Their skills, expertise and their integrated operational excellence, especially through their partners. IKKS has obligations for the land, the sea and the environment as a whole, to do something sincere and lasting for the planet.

Their “IKKS works better” program is focused on five priorities: Reduce carbon emissions, Develop more ethical materials to reduce their impact on the environment; Guaranteeing social standards throughout the IKKS supply chain; all information about IKKS products is transparent and available to everyone and the reduction of plastic.

What sets IKKS apart from other brands on the market is the excellence of the unique skills that form the heart of the “IKKS works better” approach. Seamstresses, pattern makers, design office, style studio, quality control, CSR teams: IKKS has all the expertise in conceiving and designing the collections in-house in Saint-Macaire-en-Mauges and Paris. It’s local expertise, highlighted every day by a team of passionate people.

As quality goes with things that last, the IKKS teams are dedicated to the task of guaranteeing that customers around the world have desirable and durable products. A team of 22 people based in Saint-Macaire-en-Mauges is fully dedicated to prototyping IKKS models, developing more than 2,500 prototypes per year. This phase, which is very important in the creation of IKKS collections, guarantees the quality of the clothes and that they fit well.

My outfit today is made up of a pink IKKS dress, which I can say is one of the more interesting colors I’ve had the chance to wear this season. I have not worn this color many times in my life, I was pleasantly surprised how this color can really refresh a woman in her prime to look even younger and fresher.

If you want to stay updated and find out what all the novelties IKKS has to offer us this fashion season, follow this French fashion house on Facebook and Instagram.

The jewelry I wear always has a special story and that’s why I like to wear it. I received these earrings almost 45 years ago from my late mother-in-law after marrying my husband. These earrings belonged to her grandmother, then to her mother, and through a combination of life circumstances these earrings found their way to me. When I wear them I always think of my late mother-in-law who was an extremely brave, strong and wise woman. These earrings have no particular material value, but for me they have an incredibly high sentimental value because I received them from a woman who inspired me in the most important period of my life.

Before today’s photo shoot, I felt nervous and nervous because of the high temperatures and Marko was helping me choose jewelry and he found these earrings in the jewelry box with the question: “Mom, what do you think about these earrings for today’s post?”. When I saw them, the feeling of nervousness disappeared because I was overwhelmed by the feeling of self-confidence because I received these earrings as a gift from a lineage of very strong and self-confident women.

I hope you enjoyed my fashion story today. Soon I will show you other summer outfits that can serve as inspiration for this fashion season. See you in a few days at the same place, with some new interesting story. I will try not to take long breaks and I hope you understand the reason for my unexpected absence, but there will be time to catch up and I am sure I will meet your expectations.

Best Regards,

Rose

DAMIAAN: A Brand that combines Refined Simplicity and An Unbridled Fantasy…

Fashion Mrs. Mom Outfit Post June 28, 2024 8 Comments

My dear fashionistas, welcome to my first summer fashion story on the Mr.M blog pages this season. It is a great honor and pleasure for me to have been able to inspire women in their prime to change their perspective on life and introduce novelty into their everyday life through my vision of fashion. Today I will try my best to present you some new fashion novelties that have arrived in my wardrobe.

This unexpected hobby of mine and writing fashion stories became interesting to me because I noticed that people found my stories interesting and inspiring. Honestly, I didn’t expect my writing to be such a success. I have to admit that your messages have given me extra strength to carry on through the difficult period after the surgery in Egypt and to get back to blogging again.

Today I have the great honor and pleasure to introduce you to an unusual new Belgian brand of luxury leather goods that combines refined simplicity and an unbridled fantasy in the creation of its fantastic bags – DAMIAAN.

DAMIAAN is a new luxury Belgian leather goods brand, created by Christina Zeller and Damian O’Sullivan in 2022. With refined simplicity and unbridled fantasy, their creations have surprised and seduced clients across Europe through elegant eccentricity. Driven by their imagination and passion for leather goods, this creative duo pushes the boundaries of the possible, respecting the rigor of the craft and maintaining the greatest degree of artistic freedom.

An unusual combination of traditional form with bold imagination, DAMIAAN presents a collection of bags that bring an unusual blend of refined and simple elegance and grace combined with a unique imagination without limits. The current collection of the DAMIAAN brand consists of two models of bags: Snakebag and Bootbag, this collection is inextricably linked to the imaginary world of surrealism.

Through its first collection, DAMIAAN begins a new creative journey where each bag will carry its own story to tell together with you. I would like to take the opportunity to introduce you to the creators of this amazing brand of leather goods. Damian O’Sullivan, after graduating from the Royal College of Art, he knocked on luxury fashion heaven where he was met by the then director of Hermès, Jean-Louis Dumas, who immediately liked his designs. This fairytale beginning launched a creative journey that would see him design a monumental tower in London for Thames Water, as well as helping Anish Kapoor build his epic water sculpture ‘Decension’. His career was also marked by moments such as designing shoes for Asics and Camper and many porcelain creations for Royal Delft, Rosenthal and Vista Alegre.

For the past fifteen years, he has worked for the famous French houses Hermès and Louis Vuitton, designing tableware, leather goods and home accessories. After thirty years, Damian returns to his very first love – creating unique bags. You must be wondering, why bags? Although it may not be the oldest profession in the world, bag making goes back millennia. Practical and useful then and now, these days, bags are expected to carry stories, and those are the stories that DAMIAAN wants to tell.

Having earned a master’s degree in journalism, Christina Zeller was not destined for her professional career. On the runway as a model at the age of 23, she discovered the world of fashion, which she has never left since. She worked for the biggest fashion houses and designers in France and Belgium. Karl Lagerfeld gave her wings, boldness, fantasy and the privilege to experiment. Working with Christian Lacroix, she learned the rigor of research that always seeks the exceptional and never settles for second best. Her close collaboration with Riccardo Tisci led to the development of all his fashion accessories. Enriched and emboldened by this experience, she joined Delvaux in 2011, where she spent nine years at the helm of the creative, marketing and communications department, contributing to the brand’s luster and brilliance. She once stated: “I have always worked with passion and I was lucky enough to start each day with a smile. With DAMIAAN, I have come full circle and I can feel all the emotions and excitement as if it were the first time.”

In today’s fashion story, I present to you the Snakebag model that is made in France and its classic crescent design belies its clever construction. How else would you get a writhing snake to hold a bag while holding its tongue? The almost invisible seams require exceptional craftsmanship, which our craftsmen have perfected through trials and tribulations to maintain the allure and mystery of their sinuous tail. As real as the snake looks, if you are afraid of snakes you don’t have to shy away because this charming snake will brighten your day!

Snakebag comes in two sizes: small and medium. This model can be found in several color combinations. The decision was difficult, but I decided on a white Snakebag with black details.

Another interesting model in the DAMIAAN collection is the Bootbag, which is made in Italy, bringing together two separate crafts: boots and bag making. Exceptional skills are required in making this sophisticated handbag model, where one craftsman works hand in hand with another to make the bag look its best. The Bootbag will have you wandering around impervious to all the elements, and its leather sole will withstand even the occasional puddle or two you encounter. Stranded or carried by your hand in the air, the Bootbag isn’t afraid to bare its sole. This bag model is made in one size and there are several price variations.

The second brand that I want to introduce you to today comes to us from France and I am sure that many of you have at least one of their creations in your wardrobe – IKKS.

Every outfit looks more interesting and chic with the Poppy Red Double-Breasted Blazer. This blazer has a modern cut with two side pockets with flaps, long sleeves. This blazer features an exclusive IKKS jacquard lining with skull motifs. The blazer has a double breasted, button fastening and a straight fit.

If you want to stay updated and find out what all the novelties IKKS has to offer us this fashion season, follow this French fashion house on Facebook and Instagram.

The Loro Piana company has three divisions (textile divisions): a division that deals with the production of high-quality materials using precious fibers such as cashmere and baby cashmere, vicuna, linen and merino wool, a division that deals with the creation of luxury fashion items (production and distribution of men’s, women’s clothing, footwear and fashion accessories) and the interior design department – production and distribution of interior design products.

In today’s post you have the opportunity to see an interesting piece from the latest women’s Loro Piana Spring – Summer 2024 collection, which is just a small part of my favorites this season because of its distinctive elegance and my love for bright colors. The white colored trousers are perfect for all occasions and extremely easy to match with other colors, they are made of silk.

Regarding the story about the jewelry, I got the necklace from my husband as a gift for our 30th wedding anniversary, I remember that we all went to the capital of Italy – Rome as a family to celebrate our wedding anniversary with our children. On the first day while walking around the main street for shopping, I spotted this necklace and told my daughter how beautiful and unusual it was, then we continued our walk. The daughter conveyed my findings to her father and they made a plan to buy the necklace. I was shocked and positively surprised when I saw the Bvlgari shopping bag at dinner the next day when we were celebrating our wedding anniversary and as I needed time to compose myself, Marko unwrapped the box and put the necklace around my neck. I wore this necklace several times during the celebration of important events in our family and today I am sharing this memory with you.

On the other hand, I bought the Cartier earrings when I went on a press media trip with Marko to Qatar last year and I couldn’t resist them. These are my go-to iconic earrings for all time, unique and will be trendy this season as well as seasons to come.

I got the brooch as a gift from my dear friends from the fashion house Max Mara and I think it is now on sale, Marko just told me that he saw it in Berlin a few days ago, so he told me the interesting thing is that it is on a seasonal discount.

I believe many of you have heard about MYTHERESA shopping platform on Mr.M blog, but I would like to introduce you to this electronic fashion paradise. MYTHERESA is one of the leading global luxury e-commerce platforms operating in over 130 countries. Founded as a boutique in 1987, MYTHERESA launched online in 2006 and offers ready-to-wear, shoes, bags and accessories for women, men and children, as well as lifestyle products.

In today’s post, you will see a fashion piece from one of the brands that you can find on the MYTHERESA online shopping platform – Jimmy Choo.

These Jimmy Choo flats are crafted from the finest suede leather with beautiful floral buckles encrusted with Swarovski crystals. The shoes are extremely comfortable for long walks and very practical and easy to match with other colors. I wanted to emphasize the note of elegance of today’s outfit with these black Jimmy Choo flats and I think I succeeded in fulfilling my mission.

Best Regards,

Fashion Outfit Post May 31, 2024 7 Comments

My dear fashionistas, welcome to a new fashion story on the Mr.M blog. I hope you are well and ready for a new dose of fashion. We start today’s fashion adventure with old well-known friends of Mr.M blog – Fratelli Rossetti. This Italian footwear brand that I’m sure everyone recognizes for their comfortable shoes that are made from the highest quality materials Fratelli Rossetti footwear is fantastic for the reason that this brand makes classic shoes that are elegant and simply unbeatable, shoes for all time! You had the chance to see their most famous model, the Brera, in my Jordan fashion stories.

Fratelli Rossetti in its collections for men has timeless classic lines that you can find all year in their offer, some of the models are: Brera, Brera Sport, Hobo Sport, Yacht, La Giusta and the new line that you will get to know today – Green Side.

The Fratelli Rossetti Green Side line marks an important step on the way to respecting and sustaining the environment. The project begins with the launch of sports slippers that never neglect the historical values of the Fratelli Rossetti world, such as handwork and tradition. From the Spring-Summer 2023 collection, Green Side also conquers the festive line with one of the most representative models: the iconic Brera moccasins, which in this version stand out for their hand-knit mask with crochet technique, suede upper made of recycled material. material and for the sole made of recycled leather. In the slipper model, the sole is made entirely of natural latex, which makes the shoe versatile and comfortable. For both proposals, the inner lining is made of natural bamboo fibers and the removable insole is made entirely of Pet fibers, which guarantee high breath-ability and optimal moisture absorption. The cotton stitching is particularly impressive, emphasizing the appeal of the handmade product.

In today’s post, I present one of the Brera models. Brera is the bohemian quarter of Milan where, in the sixties of the last century, sculptors, painters and writers struggled to leave their mark with a new language and new forms. The liberal and cosmopolitan spirit was the source of inspiration for “Brera”, a moccasin with tassels, a style revolution in a country that is just rediscovering its joy of life. Brera combines different materials and colors as a true work of art. The special composition of materials and shapes makes moccasins a successful chapter in the history of Fratelli Rossetti.

Based on environmental awareness, sustainability and craftsmanship, this Brera moccasin model from the Green Side project is also reflected in the iconic value and beauty of the Brera moccasin. The loafers you can see in today’s post are made of soft suede and have a hand-crocheted penny bridge, which emphasizes the exclusivity of Brera moccasins. These moccasins have a leather sole.

Fashion Diary of Mrs. Mom: Why Everyone Still Loves Dior?

Fashion Mrs. Mom Outfit Post May 3, 2024 9 Comments

My dear fashionistas, welcome to my new fashion story on the pages of the Mr.M blog. I’m really glad that you like my take on fashion and that I inspire many women in their prime to change their minds and bring some novelty into their lives. Today I will try my best to present you some new fashion novelties that have arrived in my wardrobe.

I start today’s post with the answer to the question that you could read in the very title of this post. There is one very good reason why fashion lovers still love this undisputed French brand of luxury high “haute couture” fashion – Christian Dior, better known today as the rebranded DIOR. My task today was to create an unusual, extraordinary, minimalists and at the same time refined fashion outfit with the MYTHERESA shopping platform.

Dior is one of the few fashion houses that is based on the ideals of feminine beauty and classic, timeless fashion, over the decades it has evolved into an unusual bold, feminist and powerful design, which has remained somehow true to its roots. In today’s post, I will try to write you a little more about the history of Dior and how this French brand grew into what it is today.

In today’s post, you will see some fashion pieces from brands that you can find on the MYTHERESA online shopping platform, such as: DIOR, Roger Vivier, Max Mara and Cartier.

Let’s go back to the brand that is the subject of today’s fashion story. Dior as a French brand, dating back to the 1940s, provides fashion lovers around the world with some of the most beautiful garments, be it cocktail ready-to-wear or haute couture gowns on the red carpet or luxurious everyday pieces that are sure to catch the eye of everyone who they see you. This timeless brand has also stood the test of time, evolving with each creative leader who has passed through its doors. The fashion house has hosted some of the most incredible talent in the industry and I firmly believe it will continue to do so for years to come.

When and where did the fashion adventure called Christian Dior begin? Although it was unofficially created in 1946, the Dior brand states in its data that 1947 is the year of its beginning, because that is when the first collection of the fashion house debuted. Christian Dior launched the brand in Paris with a shop at the famous 30 Avenue Montaigne street. An interesting fact is that it took less than three months from the creation of the brand to present the first collection on February 12, 1947.

Mr. Dior had a deep love and respect for art and ran an art gallery in France before entering fashion. After closing his gallery during the Great Depression, he worked for fashion designer Robert Piguet and then-couture designer Lucien Lelong. Dior was still willing to have his work shown, which led him to create his own fashion house in 1946, and Christian Dior was born.

Soon, Dior became a globally famous fashion brand. He opened a store on the corner of Fifth Avenue and 57th Street in New York in 1948, making Dior’s first official entry into the American market. With the global launch came an expanded collection. Dior started with his fragrance notes, introducing Miss Dior, which he dedicated to his sister. It was around this time that Dior realized that his brand needed to provide an overall fashion experience in order to continue his conceptual vision and change the design of his brand.

Every Dior customer could have coats, shoes, hats and every other piece necessary to fully capture the new “fashion wave” from head to toe. The Dior brand continued to grow, and Dior himself continued to dress the biggest stars of the time. He even created the famous Marlene Dietrich for her role in the 1950 Alfred Hitchcock film “Stage Fright”. His creations remained a permanent part of her wardrobe, like many other divas of the late 40s and early 50s of the last century.

Christian Dior died in 1957 as a result of a massive heart attack at the age of 52. The entire fashion world mourned the loss of an industry icon who disappeared from the fashion scene too soon. To maintain the soul of the brand after Dior’s death, Mr. Yves Saint Laurent (Yves Saint Laurent) took on the role of artistic director of the brand. The 21-year-old continued Dior’s legacy, largely keeping the original creative vision intact. However, he sought to bring the brand to a softer silhouette, loosening the cinched waists and dropping some of the structure. The new collections were once unfailingly hit or miss as the industry scrambled to find someone else to lead the Christian Dior brand. When Yves Saint Laurent was called up to serve in the French army in 1960, he was released from the brand.

What is the story of the Lady Dior bag? This star of the French fashion house Dior was born in 1995, this bag first appeared on the hand of Lady Diana, Princess of Wales on her trip to Paris. Before that moment, this Dior bag didn’t have a name, but because of the historic moment with this bag on her hand, it got the perfect name: Lady Dior.

This bag is a testament to the exceptional taste in the Dior ateliers, the Lady Dior bag is a continuation of Christian Dior’s heritage, each element is carefully crafted, in line with the heritage of the house. The metal pendants that fall from the belt are inspired by the amulets he loved so much, and the signature stitching is familiar from the Napoleon III chairs that guests of Dior runway shows would sit on: a thread of history runs through each one.

The Lady Dior bag you see in today’s post is a mini version and is made of genuine python leather in pastel brown-gold tones with gold metallic details.

Another nice fashion novelty that I received from the MYTHERESA team are these beautiful Roger Vivier ballet flats. Roger Henri Vivier was a French fashion designer who specialized in shoes. He is best known for creating the modern stiletto heel and for placing a chrome buckle on the elegant black high heel shoe, which became a must-have fashion accessory for many celebrities and stars of the 50s and 60s. He named his brand after himself – Roger Vivier. Italian fashion group Tod’s SpA has acquired luxury brand Roger Vivier, adding the label credited with creating the heel.

Fashion-conscious women sometimes want to create the impression that they are a bit naughty or frivolous, thus showing the world that they are both fashionable and carefree. This diamond encrusted lizard brooch is a perfect example of jewelry produced during the Victorian Aesthetic Period. Crafted in 18K gold with shell-cut diamonds, it has a lovely curve, giving the piece quite the feel as if it’s ready to jump right onto your shoulder and join you for a dazzling stroll around town! I bought it a long time ago, maybe 20 years ago, in an old jewelry store in London. The jeweler had a wonderful display full of brooches from the animal kingdom and I just had to buy it.

Another piece of jewelry is pearls, which I simply adore. In collaboration with YOKO London leading luxury pearl jeweler. The brand, founded in 1973, has evolved over three generations of the Hakimian family. Their insatiable team travels the world to source the world’s finest pearls, many of which boast unique natural colors and exceptional sizes. Their talented designers and artisans work together in their London workshop to create pieces that follow all the trends in the jewelry world, combining contemporary aesthetics with timeless elegance.

Each pearl is hand-selected for each design, and the creations are intricately crafted to celebrate the stunning beauty of these precious gems. Their dedicated team has been known to spend up to a year finding a single pearl that is perfect in size, color and quality to complete a design.

This classic pearl necklace features a striking string of 6mm Japanese Akoya pearls attached to an 18k yellow gold ball clasp. A timeless piece, this necklace will add a touch of glamor to any outfit it’s paired with. Each pearl is perfectly matched and hand strung by experts in the UK.

Max Mara is a world famous Italian fashion brand. It was founded in 1951 in Reggio Emilia by Mr. Achille Maramotti. This legendary brand sponsors and awards the Max Mara Women’s Art Award. Achille Maramotti began creating wardrobes in 1947, and officially founded the Max Mara fashion house in 1951. How did the brand name come about?

Max Mara is my favorite brand because it absolutely meets my criteria when it comes to wardrobe, which are: quality, interesting models and cuts, good selection of materials, as well as fine processing of materials. Today I decided to show you my favorite piece from the latest Max Mara collection for SS24: a timeless dress with an unusual cut made of satin.

I really like the new collection of this Italian fashion house and I’m glad we have a nice collaboration. In a future post during this summer season, I will try to style this beautiful dress that I received from my dear friends from Max Mara Germany.

I have always admired women with longer and well-groomed hair, but unfortunately I have had short hair all my life, but with the help of Ellen Wille wigs (supllied by Perike In) I managed to fulfill my long-term dream and I am very happy about it. Wigs have become a trend today, because wearing a wig opens up a number of new possibilities for you to experiment and change yourself, without having to make any permanent changes to your natural hair.

Also in addition to the aesthetic transformation, wigs can provide you with good protection from frequent treatment and heat, keeping your natural hair healthy. The history of Ellen Wille began with a suitcase full of ideas. Ellen Wille is a self-made hair designer who built a global brand from a small company. After completing her studies in Paris, the company was established in 1967. The corporate philosophy is shaped by commitment to the highest quality, and this is what the Ellen Wille name stands for.

For over 50 years, Ellen Wille designs have been inspired by international fashion trends. Her passion for wig perfection is evident – she guides every meticulous detail and each Ellen Wille wig is unique. All aspects of an individual style, from the hair fiber to the coloring to the cap design, is about ensuring the most beautiful look, natural movement and comfortable fit. Ellen remains involved in every detail of design, from the first idea, to the finishing touches of each style.

When someone thinks of having to wear a wig, most people get scared thinking that it will take too much time to maintain them. Fortunately, that is not the case at all. Ellen Wille wigs are very easy to maintain and there are many products that will make them last a long time and look the same as when you bought them.

I hope you enjoyed my fashion story today. Soon I will show you other spring outfits that can serve as inspiration for this fashion season. See you in a few days at the same place, with some new interesting story. I will try not to take long breaks and I hope you understand the reason for my unexpected absence, but there will be time to catch up and I am sure I will meet your expectations.

Best Regards,

Rose

Loro Piana: Casualness and Refinement as Symbols of Prestige…

Fashion Outfit Post February 9, 2024 6 Comments

My dear fashionistas, welcome to a new fashion story on the Mr.M blog. Today we are again meeting again with a famous and iconic Italian brand, Loro Piana, and I present to you my favorite piece from their new winter collection. The special deer leather jacket that you have the opportunity to see in today’s post is a model that can always be found in every Loro Piana collection, only in accordance with fashion trends some new color palettes are introduced and some new interesting details are added.

Chocolate brown is back in fashion this season, a color that has found itself in the spotlight this fashion season and I tried to combine it with my new Aida Barni houndstooth pattern sweater from their new winter collection.

The Loro Piana company has three divisions (textile divisions): a division that deals with the production of high-quality materials using precious fibers such as cashmere and baby cashmere, vicuna, linen and merino wool, a division that deals with the creation of luxury fashion items (production and distribution of men’s, women’s clothing, footwear and fashion accessories) and the interior design department – production and distribution of interior design products.

In today’s post you have the opportunity to see a brown leather jacket from the latest Loro Piana FW23 collection, which is just a small part of my favorites this season due to its distinctive elegance and my love for pastel colors. Crafted from the finest deerskin and lined with baby cashmere, this exquisite dark brown jacket is perfect for the man who pays attention to detail and leaves nothing to chance. Camel trousers are perfect for all occasions and can be easily combined with other colors. They are made of pure baby cashmere.

If you want to stay updated and find out which pieces the Loro Piana brand has in its offer, visit their official online store and follow them on Facebook and Instagram.

Today’s fashion adventure continues in Italian style with our old friends, I’m sure you remember the brand Aida Barni, which is synonymous with the perfect softness and refined Italian processing of cashmere. Last season we enjoyed the beauty of bright colors, while this year I decided to paint cold winter days with pastel colors. Soft, light and warm cashmere items are also a good investment and practical during winter. When you give someone a cashmere sweater as a gift, it is a gift from the heart because a cashmere sweater carries with it a certain symbolism.

Aida Barni is a brand that belongs to the Annapurna group. Founded in 1978, the Annapurna Group has become one of the leading Italian and world manufacturers of high-quality cashmere knitwear with its two fashion lines, Annapurna and Aida Barni.

Annapurna uses all the latest production techniques available on the market, from cotton looms to the latest and most advanced knitwear machines of all sizes. The current production capacity is about 120,000 pieces per year. It is important to note that the entire production cycle is performed in Italy, more precisely in the factory of the company located in the city of Prato, which is also the center of the province of the same name located in the heart of Italy – Tuscany.

“Made in Italy” is more than a production concept, but this brand has proven to be much more than the perfect cashmere sweater on a store shelf. It is love at first touch, an impression to remember.

Annapurna is a name that evokes everyone with exceptional mountain landscapes, especially the mountain range in the Himalayas where goats live with their winter fleece, hiding the soft, warm “cloak” that made them so famous.

Aida Barni is an iconic and fascinating name for a fashion line that produces high quality knitwear from the finest cashmere. Aida Barni is a symbol of a goal for a woman who decided to enter the world of business in the late seventies and reach the very top of this challenging and one of the most difficult sectors of the market.

The Aida Barni brand was created as an artistic expression of the way of life and existence, the essence of unstressed chic, refined luxury. A collection for men and women dedicated to everyone who loves timeless and elegant knitwear that encompasses true elegance in the preciousness of materials, shapes and details.

The man who wears Aida Barni knitwear does not follow trends, but creates and adapts to the needs of everyday life. The men’s collection is made up of cult clothing items of sentimental value, which evoke a healthy and environmentally friendly way of life. Customers of the Aida Barni brand love natural and fine yarns, enjoy comfort, but do not give up the elegance and sophistication of cuts and models.

Aida Barni concept of men’s “sports elegance” is simple and with style, but rich in materials and inconspicuous details that make this brand cult because it represents an expression of uniqueness and special class.

The sweater with houndstooth check pattern you see in today’s post is from the latest Aida Barni FW23 collection, a wonderful camel – beige color and is made of pure cashmere. Refreshing color for the new season!

You can buy Aida Barni cashmere items in multi-brand stores and department stores across Europe and the world and through authorized online stores. When you give someone an Aida Barni piece, it is more than respect and love because you are giving a piece in which love and deep respect for art that is not worshiped every day is woven.

For all Aida Barni fans in Germany, I have discovered two men’s spots where you can find and enjoy in the beauty of Aida Barni incredible knitwear: Braun Hamburg and Mientus retail stores.

If you want to stay tuned and find out all the news that Aida Barni is preparing for us this fashion season, follow them on the social networks Facebook and Instagram.

AIDA BARNI: Feel the Finest Cashmere from the Heart of Italy…

Fashion Outfit Post January 5, 2024 5 Comments

My dear fashionistas, welcome to the first fashion story on the Mr.M blog in 2024! Winter is my favorite period of the year, when we are able to dress in “layers” and when we can take out our favorite knitwear pieces from our wardrobes that keep us warm during the lower winter temperatures.

I started today’s fashion adventure with old friends, I’m sure you remember the brand Aida Barni, which is synonymous with the perfect softness and refined Italian processing of cashmere. Last season we enjoyed the beauty of bright colors, while this year I decided to paint cold winter days with some warm pastel colors.

Soft, light and warm cashmere items are also a good investment and practical gift during the fall-winter. When you give someone a cashmere sweater, it is a gift from the heart, because a cashmere sweater carries a certain symbolism with it.

The turtleneck sweater with zipper you see in today’s post is from the latest Aida Barni FW23 collection, a wonderful camel color and is made of pure cashmere. Refreshing color for the new season!

For all Aida Barni fans in Germany, I have discovered two men’s spots where you can find and enjoy in the beauty of Aida Barni incredible knitwear: Braun Hamburg and Mientus retail stores.

If you want to stay tuned and find out all the news that Aida Barni is preparing for us this fashion season, follow them on the social networks Facebook and Instagram.

All the people who have been following my blog for years know that I have a great love for Burberry trench-coats and coats, honestly I don’t even know how many of their fashion pieces I own anymore, but I know that this is my one of the favorite colors that I always like to wear – the color of tobacco. Soft pastel golden tobacco color that blends very easily with other colors.

Burberry trenchcoats and coats represent the pinnacle of world fashion and have become indispensable fashion classics today. These coats were created by the founder of the Burberry company, Thomas Burberry, more than 100 years ago, inspired by the British heritage, and at the same time introduced elements of urban fashion.

You can find all classic Burberry coats in 5 basic models: Legendary Kensington, Westminster, Chelsea, Waterloo and Pimlico. All models are named after London districts. What is the difference between these models?

The Kensington – a classic model with a modern cut that easily adapts to any silhouette. The most popular model, which is available in four basic colors: gray, navy, honey color (camel) and black. Also, this model is made in two lengths. The coat you see on me today is this model.

The Westminster – a model that is extended (oversized) and lightly cut for a draped silhouette. Basic colors: honey color (camel) and dark green (khaki). Also, this model is made in two lengths.

The Chelsea – a model characterized by a slim fit (narrow form close to the body) with narrow shoulders and a cut waist. The basic colors are honey and taupe and it is also available in two lengths.

The Waterloo – A more comfortable fit, a longer model than the classic with a subtle and relaxed fit that is ideal for layering. This model is usually made in three basic colors: maroon, black and honey-camel and is available in only one length.

The Pimlico, a simple flat cut decorated with a single-row fastening of a minimalistic character and a modern cut. This model is usually made in navy, biscuit (biscuit color) and honey color – camel. This model is also only available in one classic length.

I would like to note that all the listed colors are only classics that are always produced, but the Burberry company introduces seasonal colors to enrich its offer.

Most Burberry coats have been hand-crafted in Castleford, Yorkshire for over 50 years from gabardine – a revolutionary fabric that Thomas Burberry proudly introduced in 1879. Polished, light and practical, beautiful cotton resistant to all kinds of weather conditions that remains at the heart of the Burberry brand to this day.

The classic coat model originated and developed from the basic form of the Tielocken coat, which was patented in 1912 by Thomas Burberry. A simple but refined unique shape that has been adapted over the years and has become a recognizable Burberry coat.

Each Burberry coat is special and has its own story – one that is made to last and write new pages of life’s chapters together with you. Buying a Burberry trench or coat is an investment, it is a fashion piece that can really be worn nicely and for a long time with proper maintenance and it is a thing you can leave for generations to come. I inherited my first Burberry coat from my grandfather and today I keep it carefully and wear it on special occasions because it has a special sentimental value for me.

When the time comes to buy a Burberry trench, it’s a big deal and especially if you are buying a coat for the first time it is very important to buy a “iconic” piece that you can combine with your items from your wardrobe and it is best to buy a coat in your favorite color, without blindly following trends.

The trench coat or a coat are pieces that are worn over other pieces of clothing, so it is best to look at your favorite pieces of clothing and shoes before buying and judge for yourself which are the two or three colors that might come into consideration when buying a coat. The color of tobacco is a neutral color and blends with other colors with great ease, but each of us knows our wardrobe best and you may find the ideal solution since buying a Burberry coat is a real investment.

In today’s blog post you have the opportunity to see a classic model of the Kensington coat made of the finest cashmere in the color of tobacco, which in my honest opinion is one of the most beautiful colors and the easiest to match with other pieces of clothing from your wardrobe.

Did we fit in nicely at the end? Honestly, I believe we are. After so many years of loyalty to this British brand and because of my personal interest, I have learned a lot about their offer and I am lucky to always be able to show my favorite pieces from the fashion house Burberry on my blog.

BURBERRY: Festive Beauty of Urban British Elegance…

Fashion Outfit Post December 29, 2023 3 Comments

My dear fashionistas, I hope you are ready for a new fashion adventure. Winter is the most interesting fashion period when we all tend to experiment a lot and play with fashion. A cashmere coat is the best investment with which you can always create a large number of outfit combinations without much thought. My story today will be dedicated to my most favorite British fashion house that you had the opportunity to see years ago on the Mr.M blog – Burberry.

All the people who have been following my blog for years know that I have a great love for Burberry trench-coats and coats, honestly I don’t even know how many of their fashion pieces I own anymore, but I know that this is my favorite trench and the color that I always like to wear – the color of honey. Soft pastel golden camel color that blends very easily with other colors.

I would like to note that all the listed colors are only classics that are always produced, but the Burberry company introduces seasonal colors to enrich its offer.

To the readers of the Mr.M blog, I have become a recognizable symbol of autumn and winter precisely because of the Burberry trench coats and coats and I have received numerous questions about the advice for smart purchase of a Burberry coat. I have tried to highlight important questions and provide you with adequate answers that can help you during your purchase. All answers represent my personal opinion and certain observations, so don’t generalize things, take this as buying advice.

What are the basic colors you should think about when buying a Burberry trench or coat? There is no universal answer to this question, but I will share with you my opinion and some of my colleagues and fashion experts with whom I like to exchange opinions. I think that for a start, there are 3 colors by which the Burberry trench or coat is recognizable, and they are: Beige (washed stone color), Camel (honey color) and Black color.

These three colors are some fashion statement basics, but as I said it all depends on the taste of the owner of the new Burberry trench, maybe that customer thinks that the basic colors in the palette are: red, purple and olive green. Therefore, a person will decide to buy a coat in one of those colors, which Burberry has in its seasonal offer.

Is the length of the coat crucial when making a purchase decision? Of course! I always try to advise people to buy iconic items in classic cuts and lengths and not to blindly follow trends. Trends are changing, one season there are modern coats of casual cuts with puff sleeves quite long length to the ground, after two months or a year later another trend comes. My most honest advice is to buy a coat of length that suits your body constitution in proportion to your own height. Burberry trench coats exist in several lengths and I am sure you can always find the ideal coat for yourself.

Once again, is it worth investing money in a honey trench coat? If you are a fan of camel color and have a lot of things in pastel or neutral colors, then I think you know the right answer. If you feel some kind of insecurity while trying on a camel coat and reconsider your decision several times, I think it’s best to try another color. When you buy an expensive item like a Burberry coat it is something that must be accompanied by a feeling of fulfillment and security.

The trench coat or a coat are pieces that are worn over other pieces of clothing, so it is best to look at your favorite pieces of clothing and shoes before buying and judge for yourself which are the two or three colors that might come into consideration when buying a coat. Camel color is a neutral color and blends with other colors with great ease, but each of us knows our wardrobe best and you may find the ideal solution since buying a Burberry coat is a real investment.

In today’s blog post you have the opportunity to see a classic model of the Kensington coat made of the finest cashmere in the color of honey, which in my honest opinion is one of the most beautiful colors and the easiest to match with other pieces of clothing from your wardrobe.

Tod’s as a brand stood out for its quality leather and models originating from artisanal shoemakers. Mr. Diego Della Valle’s idea was to create a shoe suitable for both formal and informal occasions, with a casual, comfortable, simple but refined taste.

Today, the Tod’s brand represents the pinnacle of Italian fashion and, in addition to footwear, produces clothing, knitwear and fashion accessories that have found their place in the hearts of celebrities across Hollywood.

This brand stands out from other brands for its sophisticated blend of Italian elegance and functionality. Creating their sophisticated and exclusive clothing, the MooRER fashion house stands out for the accuracy and precision applied to their production processes, focusing on simple and refined looks with special attention to detail.

However, the MooRER philosophy really differs in that they always choose only the best materials, in order to achieve the highest level of quality and comfort, which is what “MADE IN ITALY” really means.

Jeans are an integral part of the wardrobe of almost every man and woman, so I decided to try MooRER jeans, which are made of the highest quality Japanese denim with the help of the production method on old looms.
