Couture Fashion Summary

This year’s London Fashion Week has closed and for anybody interested in fashion it is time to sit back to take stock of what they have seen. What are the lessons from the London Fashion Week ?

It was a week with a very busy schedule and around 50 shows, too much for anybody to take in.

Here at PAIRFUM we investigate trends in fashion due to the intrinsic link between perfumery and fashion.

Sadly though, we cannot attend all 50 shows, which is why we prefer a simply summary for the events we could not attend.

Luckily, here is an interesting article with the 25 Lessons from The London Fashion Week.

During this week of fashion excellence, it is worth looking not only at what is being shown on the ‘cat walk’ but what is being worn outside on the street.

Here is a photo series with the best street style fashion looks spotted during the week:

Harmonious Design.

This modern apartment in Kiev accentuates beautifully strong contemporary interior design against classic ornamentation. We would have liked to see more of this intriguing contrast.

The apartment has some spectacular views. We find though that the grey colour pallette, with only variations of brown as an accent colour, dominates too much throughout this luxurious home.

What do you think ?

We are missing some fragrance in this home: perfumed candles, reed diffusers, fragrant hand wash or lotions, eau de parfum sprays.

Good Design ?

Here is a link to a photo gallery for an unusual cabin in the woods in the Sugar Bowl Ski Resort of Norden, California.

In our opinion, it could blend in more harmoniously with its surroundings. The concrete foundation and the angular lines are not what one would have expected of an alpine cabin. We suspect as well that the tar-treated wood will probably overpower the fresh, ozonic fragrance of the spruce in the woods  and mountains, at least at the beginning.

The views from inside out are fabulous though.

Colour is the result of the reflection or refraction of light coming from the objects that surround us, the result of the interaction between light and matter. It is not an intrinsic property of matter.

Chromatic Glass celebrates colour through mudac’s contemporary glass collection by presenting a selection of 50 pieces from renowned artists (1960s to the current day), with a sensory, scientific and fun approach to the medium.

Design Inspiration

A young designer transformed her apartment in an old school house flat into a cool loft apartment, with the colours black and white. The warehouse-style flat was stylishly renovated with a new black kitchen, white floorboards and an abundance of natural light.
