yesterday i went to melbourne, to check out 'the secret of the jacket' exhibition @ the chanel boutique on collins street. it was brilliant, taking you from vintage chanel, by coco herself, right through to modern day chanel under the deft hand of karl lagerfeld. it featured many drawing, fabric samples, editorial shots and vintage pieces from chanel's vast and exciting archive. i was also a tad frivolous... i bought the latest issue of 'i-d,' unfortunately i was unable to get the limited edition issue with sasha on the cover, sad...
...i also picked up this witty little pocket book of sartorial tid-bits by esquire magazine. a thorough and humourous essay for keeping the modern man stylish and in vogue...
plus, the forth book in a series on developing ones skills as a fashion designer/stylist... a great reference, as are the preceding 3 books
i also visited 'miss louise' and much to my delight, they had just recieved new stock of alexander mcqueen spring 2010, including this, the 'jellyfish de-manta clutch.' it is stunning, the colours in real-life are so vivid and sharp, and that amazing shape really make it a stand-out. they also a 1m x 1m cashmere scarf in the same print *heart-breaks,* but @ $995, it will forever be only a pipe-dream
