Wow! Paris Fashion truly started with a bang! As quirky as this collection is, it truely is loveable!
A butterfly gown with 1500 multi-colored glow in the dark butterflies. Hand mudras on a shirt! Multi-colored hearts on a jacket. And that shoe!!
So whimsical but still loved it! Simply loved it!

Suneet Varma celebrated 21 years in fashion with a celebratory ball and fashion show and I must say I was really disappointed. Dominated by cutwork embroidery and mettalic hues, the collection was such a letdown.
I had so hoped to be blown away, considering the collection he presented at India Splendor back in August was so vibrant and regal! I gotta say it.. I totally hated it!

Marc Jacobs for Louis Vuitton’s Fall 2007 ready to wear collection did these super chunky, gladiator’esque shoes, almost invoking the inner dominatrix in a woman! And now, I notice the same sort of shoes being worn by Sarah Jessica Parker in the upcoming Sex And The City Movie! Do I smell a trend?

Oh, and incidentally, the shoes that SJP is wearing are Christian Dior’s! And if you fancy a pair, found one on Ebay, take a look!
Louis Vuitton is looking to set up a factory in Pondicherry, purpose of which would be to attach soles to its uber luxurious (and expensive) shoes. But, and there is always a but, the tag on those shoes will continue to read, ‘Made In Italy’ because thats where most of the work would’ve been done! Read more HERE
Louis Vuitton recently had a dinner to honor Wes Anderson and the movie “The Darjeeling Limited”. What piqued my interest about the event was the appearance of the “Mumbai” Travel Notebook by Louis Vuitton, which was given to every guest.
Mind you, this book is sold out! You can find every other travel notebook on E-Luxury except the “Mumbai” notebook. :(
The notebook consists of illustrations based on India by Florine Asch. Before you make a judgement about the illustrations (about having the “cliched” elephants, maharajahs and turbans), let me tell you that the book has illustrations on landmarks and city scenes(the mumbai dabbawallas!).
The notebook retails for $81, which in “LV” terms is pretty darn cheap, in my opinion. Gosh, now I gotta go and schmooze the sales guy at the LV store to get me one!
Check out the “Mumbai” Travel Notebook on the Louis Vuitton website by searching for “notebook”.
