Sugar, and Spice....

Louis Vuitton's Primavera/Estate 2012 conjures up images of
cupcakes, fine pastry, and powdered sugar!

The setting for the advertising campaign is in a pasticceria!
Models Daria Strokous and Kati Nescher are photographed by the

American photographer Steven Meisel.

I love the textures and the colours!

About

Costume Design transports us to various places and time.
Perfect Millinery is achieved when the finished hat
“seems to have been blown together by the wind”, a beauty of nature.
Pattern-making is drafting shapes on paper which create
three dimensional beauties.
When Draping one molds the fabric to create something amazing.
And when Sewing one gives life to fabric.
Welcome to my little part of the world. Enjoy your visit!
American Sarta

Moda esiste in cicli. Costume Design ci trasporta
in vari luoghi un tempo di.
Millinery perfetto si ottiene quando il cappello finito
“sembra essere stato bruciato insieme dal vento”,
una bellezza della natura.
Creazione di modelli sta elaborando forme su carta,
che creano tre bellezze tridimensionali.
Quando Drappeggi si stampi il tessuto per creare
qualcosa di incredibile.
E quando si cuceuno dà la vita al tessuto.
Benvenuti nella mia piccola parte del mondo. Buona visita!

Italian Couture- Gattinoni

Studing fashion as I grew up I know that Milan, Italy is the fashion capital of the world. But everday I learn of new amazing Italian masters!

Fernanda Gattinoni, Italian born in 1906 moved to London in the 1920's. There he perfected his interest in design and tailored clothes. He has worked with icons such as Gabrielle Chanel, Audrey Hepburn, Ava Gardner, Ingrid Bergman, and Ian Claire.

In the 1930's he returns to Italy. He opens up the couture house, Ventura in Milan. Four years later headquarter are opened in Rome. It not only represented a growing business but a econonic and cultural renewal for the county. An area of one hundred and twenty thousand square meters for workers is set up.

Fernanda Gattinoni dies on the 26th of November 2002 in his home in Rome, he was 96 years old. Today Guillermo Mariotto runs the couture house.
