While visiting Versailles, Patuna had the initial idea to design each creation in one piece of the famous castle; the colors found their origin from there. The choice of single threads, hooked by Patuna herself was like an invisible link symbolizing the distance between Paris and Tbilisi.
A woman of power, then, and a woman in motion, extracting herself from her condition by acceding to the world.
When the collection of silk and velvet satin appeared as a whole, it seemed evident to her that the serpent she had woven on each creation was that knowledge to which Eve had acceded…

LA PERLA is pleased to introduce the Corset Jacket, a key suiting concept from the new ready-to-wear collection designed by Julia Haart, Creative Director of LA PERLA. The Corset Jacket makes its worldwide debut in a striking photo of Kendall Jenner. The LA PERLA Corset Jacket represents Julia Haart’s vision to fuse LA PERLA’s unparalleled knowledge of the female form with a unprecedented devotion to how women want to feel: sensual, beautiful and comfortable — an offering only LA PERLA can provide. From boardroom to evening, the Corset Jacket translates seamlessly into every area of a woman’s life. The single layer of structured bi-stretch wool against the skin gently enhances the female form, while never sacrificing total comfort.
The LA PERLA Corset Jacket embodies the feeling and support of lingerie with internal cups, elegant hook fastenings and finely tailored darts. The bi-stretch wool Corset Jacket is sized according to bust for the perfect fit and can be worn as a single layer thanks to the built-in wireless bra. This refined piece, available in store today, offers the luxurious feeling of a single layer of fabric against the skin.
The campaign, photographed by Steven Klein, marks the heritage brand’s transition into a full ready-to-wear offering under the creative direction of Julia Haart, who took reins of the Italian house in August 2016.
The campaign photograph features Jenner streaked in light, emphasizing the curve and precise cut of the Corset Jacket. Behind her, we see an x-rayed image, kindly lent by the Victoria & Albert Museum, featuring a corset and its wearer, outlining the distorted effect corsetry had on a woman’s bones. The image is ingeniously juxtaposed by the comfort and structural support of Haart’s revolutionary creation. The days of women suffering for beauty is a thing of the past.
Jenner’s campaign image debuts only a few weeks following a recent sighting of Gwyneth Paltrow wearing the same Corset Jacket with coordinating suiting pant by LA PERLA, at Paltrow’s holiday opening of goop GIFT.

The LA PERLA Corset Jacket retails for $1,870.00, now available in store and on www.laperla.com

The Foundation Of A Fashionista!
Ever since I can remember, I was a lover of all things beautiful and always had a sense of style. I was the one who stood out in front of the crowd, whether at church or a birthday party or any event. Although very young, I always loved various vintage styles, sequins, and feathers. I loved black and white Hollywood classics of flashy fashions and striking styles.
January is officially Get Organized Month, and the P-Touch D210 is one of Khloe Kardashian’s favorite gadgets for organizing her jewelry, make-up, and more.
And as you can see below, she keeps it very close to her when she’s organizing her favorite accessories, including her signature hoop earrings. What makes the P-Touch fun as well as functional is the range of colors the label comes in (clear, black, red, gold, yellow) so that you can add that custom touch to your closet, jewelry case, etc…
Recently, I’ve added style photos to my social media feed. I wanted to share my personal style, which is categorized as chic and modern.
This leads me to the topic for the blog post. How can someone discover his or her personal style? Essentially it’s about self-awareness and understanding your clothing preferences. The definition of style is, “a distinctive appearance, typically determined by the principles according to which something is designed.”
The first step to discovering your personal style is identifyingastyle icon. Do you prefer the total appearance of Lady Gaga or Michelle Obama? Grab a few magazines and create a stylebook.
The next action is to visit your closet and examine pieces you have worn on numerous occasions. This could be a fedora hat or cardigan sweater. Are those items complimenting your features and body type (circle, triangle, hourglass, rectangle)?

Consider your lifestyle and occupation when curating your wardrobe. A corporate executive should invest in a high quality suit; same concept applies for weekly Pilates sessions.
Accessories are the best assets for discovering your personal style. They allow you to change a look without purchasing new clothing. A classic wristwatch can upgrade an inexpensive blouse.
Ultimately, it’s about feeling great and presenting yourself in a positive manner!
