Louis Vuitton store opens in Ramat Aviv Mall

       Behind the two large dark wood doors, the latest Louis Vuitton VIP room in the world is an elegant oasis in the middle relax a little hectic around the Mall Available by appointment, buyers chairs in cream, enjoy a complementary drink, and with a presentation about the goods by the seller to be.

While this may seem straight from Paris or Milan, the VIP room is located in the upscale mall in Ramat Aviv, a suburb of Tel Aviv. The only Louis Vuitton store in Israel, it moved in mid-June and is one of only seven of its stores in the world with a VIP room.

Currently, the room offers rare and exotic collection, a group of handbags with variations from animal skin and Louis Vuitton canvas. The collection also includes the most expensive bag in the store, the handbag "bowling". To NIS 70,000, bowling Louis Vuitton canvas, python and crocodile skins is.

"We have one of the seven VIP rooms [in the world], because there is such a demand here," said Ayelet Dobkin, publicist for Louis Vuitton. "This business is built three times greater than the first Louis Vuitton store in Israel."

Louis Vuitton sales associate Asaf Mizrahi agreed that it was important to add exclusivity to the shop Ramat Aviv. One of the core values ​​of Louis Vuitton, he said, is rare. That's why they do not overcharge the store, receiving one or two of each of the pockets to keep them in the back.

An example is the iconic Speedy bag in blue. Displayed in the "space" icon directly to the left when you enter the store, it is part of the pre-fall collection designed by Michael Kors. Nestled in sequins, this is a fresh look at the Speedy, which was created in the 30s, and was the first Louis Vuitton handbag sold.

"Louis Vuitton is the history and the heritage combine at the same time adjusting to life and a modern way," Dobkin said. "It is the combination of two worlds."

Legacy is important for society, as demonstrated in front of the same store through their ad for luggage. If Louis Vuitton, the company began in 1854, were the only things he made square strains that differ from the average, rounded boxes, people with at this time.

In this way, Dobkin said, it revolutionized travel time. The elongated shape meant that people pack more, and would therefore travel more often.

The Ramat Aviv memory was one of the first Louis Vuitton trunks, a gift from the Paris Museum. Shown with lights and a plate, next to the modern bags that the store sells travel. Customers have the option to have their initials on travel bags as initials painted bright colors on the old trunk. Celebrities like Katie Winslet and Blake Lively have been made in this historic ritual.

If customers do not want their initials in large letters on the bag, they can choose to have their branding on the label of their pocket free.

"Each of ... symbolizes the spirit of the trip," Dobkin said. "You can see that in the Lockit shoes that are very popular. Manufacture a small padlock hanging from the zipper."

Another part of the legacy is that everything is handmade in "studios" in the store. The bags are workshops in France, the leather of France and Spain, and shoes from Italy.

"Even the holes in the seat on the inside to match the color of the upper hand will be canceled," Mizrahi said.

This sense of culture is not only in the summer and pre-fall collections, which offers shops, but also in the store itself. If the Greek architect Panagiotis Chatzinas designed, he wanted to be like the other Louis Vuitton stores worldwide be it. But there is also the addition of works of Israeli art in the store.

Therefore, while the guests a taste of European culture, the Louis Vuitton store reminds Israelis that they are still at home.

'The Bling Ring': luridly compelling cautionary tale of Sofia Coppola

Few filmmakers working today to create an atmosphere like Sofia Coppola. His beautiful first film from 1999 "The Virgin Suicides" of "Lost in Translation", "Marie Antoinette" and "Somewhere," Coppola proved a rare filmmaker willing to overthrow the tyranny of the narrative structure and tidy three acts instead of taking advantage of the film industry for its rich textures,miu miu bag references and expressionistic visual depth. Coppola brings this poetic "The Bling Ring", a cautionary tale to young Unleashed today, that for all its ripped-from-the-headlines news, still breathing a dream, the scent of the other world. Based on the story disguised a group of teenagers from Los Angeles and robbed the homes of Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan and other celebrities, type "The Bling Ring" in the same fear and terror voyeuristic characterized in that teenage problem over the decades: Whether bikes, street gangs, marijuana or sexuality, there has never been a cultural fear that the film could not be treated Entertainment alternately dark and scolding. Today, of course, our concerns about the technology - both for what kids are doing it with and how it affects the frontal lobe malleable with their moral training centers yet. In addition, the proximity of celebrities and media culture through the unjust dependence photos of other people out stuff and get "The Bling Ring", as the cooling of a portrait of amorality as a teenager more alarmist B-movie 1950 from the years, but much more beautiful pictures and the best music. From the end - with Bling ring member Nicki (Emma Watson) must be tried ditzily announcement that his life of crime "a huge learning lesson for me," was - "The Bling Ring" on flashing as it all began in Los Angeles s' beige, featureless San Fernando Valley. A bored student named Rebecca (Katie Chang) meets a new boy named Marc inadequate (Israel Broussard), which proves that he knows is fast Miu Miu and hair extensions. Soon he was comprises part of the cast of Rebecca, who Nicki, her best friend-slash-sister, Sam (Taissa Farmiga) and Chloe (Claire Julien), all wrote in the rhetoric of self-esteem, autonomy and the world selfie centered narcissistic Facebook and its satellite. Powered by the free-flowing alcohol, weed and Adderall that mom Nicki every morning passed as corn flakes, children recognize that, thanks to Web sites like TMZ gossip, they can understand if some famous people from the city, with GPS and Google Maps, they can just as easily find where they live. And now the stars are not like us - they do not lock their doors - and it was not long before Rebecca and Marc open thread their friends on a series of robberies of millions of dollars of clothing, jewelry, and household items. The flights take a monotone gray in "The Bling Ring" - a scene in the home of the real life of Hilton, left altar of his character, where the pads are placed with his picture - loses punch the thieves come back and still (probably did not notice his possessions were gone early). And the characters are so flat, without self-consciousness or true soul, it is difficult to sustain the interest of their exploits. Take a hard look exhausted their rage is only with Marc Broussard with vulnerability deserves sympathy. Nicki Watson in turn could be a satirical character in the form of the brilliant Nicole Kidman in "To Die For", but it is easy to make and lip gloss - be suitable for the actual person who plays, but strenuous repetitive anyway. But Coppola has no sense of irony and contempt of a scathing comment. Instead, considered, and is thus able to find the unlikely transcendence. Best moment of the movie, filmed in the late filmmaker Harris Savides, a documented flight in a night shot captured through the hills a glass house in which two thieves steal the interior decorating in a quiet, strangely beautiful pantomime. "The Bling Ring" is full of such visual richness, recalling "Marie Antoinette" in lush arrangements of material objects and stunning locations. But for all the bravery Coppola with images, it is called the means of assessing his rebellious protagonist. (As for "Antoinette", the viewer sometimes wonders if Coppola materialism and ruthlessness, has decried that chronic or intervene in it.) If the director throws in "The Bling Ring", is squarely addressed his parents, they are ahead, with their children in classes and auditions, or as the New Age-y single mother Leslie Mann, home school their children in a curriculum based on the book by self-help action "The Secret." The dark irony of "The Bling Ring" is that, while compulsively documenting their crimes on social media, the thieves become even famous (at a time when Mark compares the ring for a modern Bonnie and Clyde) and fame turned out, their his downfall.Miu Miu handbag As an attractive space lambent mirror, "The Bling Ring" makes the venality of celebrity culture training Wreck, effort and self-deception to dramatize a fact that as it is so delicious depressing: If a member of the Bling Ring goes to jail, sharing a cell block with another young woman recently arrested for stealing, and that is Lindsay Lohan herself.

weeks of British fashion for men: The main players

Today is the opening day of London Collections: Men, a fashion festival three days for the stock with a schedule that is strong enough to crack. This is a good indicator of Britain's position in the arena of international men's fashion - which now accounts for 50 percent of the global market for luxury goods worth over ￡ 24,000,000,000th But honestly, this adobe schedules are nothing intimidating bar for a fashion journalist. Sleep, it seems, is for the next season.chanel 2.55 classic flap bag For Spring / Summer 2014 Burberry Prorsum is the big story: namely, the first exhibition of menswear brand in the London calendar. They raised their sticks usual Milanese territory and it makes perfect sense, signature trench coat brand is much more comfortable in the rain flooded London on sunny climates of Lombardy streets. A wet Kensington Gardens, showing the position of the brand, it feels much more British. Burberry and many more. There is no preview of the Burberry collection first: Creative Director of the brand, Christopher Bailey, a nannying the press infiltration stops possible. In fact, the live stream viewers will get to see the clothes in front of the press, such as Burberry is broadcasting live backstage. Verbalize about the collection a few days in advance? No dice. It's a preview video on YouTube that shows some adaptation blue sky and sunny yellow. Wishful thinking for the summer of 2014? Your guess is as good as mine. Fortunately, some of the other creative talents were in London is ready to give an insight into their rail Menswear before the performance. For a journalist, this is golden. It allows you to discuss with their clothes one by one, unraveling (figuratively of course) their inventions. It would be impossible to have a clock speed through the snake Richard Nicoll model is woven rather than printed, for example, or crispy JW Anderson knits are double-sided, concealed with smocking. You have to turn inside out in order to understand. It's the same with the heads of designers: How could the link between fences and knitted network of brothers and sisters? Or colored E Tautz Patrick Grant Agreement and the first of three pieces of Charles II supported. The brains of these designers make them and their clothes so brilliant. Exclusively in the run-up to London Collections: Men, says The Independent on Sunday by a quartet of the best British fashion and shows a little of what they have in store for Spring / Summer 2014. Brothers and sisters Sid Bryan, Joe Bates and Cozette McCreery are the trio behind the brother label knitwear. The word "knitting", but burdened as it is folk cable with moldy imaging Aran knitwear and sweaters, seems an inadequate description of what they do. Brothers and Sisters was inspired by the London riots 2011, Richard Hell, Leigh Bowery and Paula Yates, while knitting a denim jacket for a fox fur with the head and feet or encrusted leopard cardigans sequins. For their spring 2014 show tomorrow, she watched West Side Story, with the inspiration of the esoteric (grid of New York basketball) to the obvious (the Jets and Sharks logos are broadly defined). Everything is knitted, but decorated with elaborate engravings by artist Richard Woods or embroidered emblems and tattoos cheesecake pinup Laura Lee. It's also a good dose of Miami Vice worthy knit pastels and a touch of lace: exactly the kind of thing that might have you seen a Fifties New York punk swaggering around "masculine men can wear things that are really girly" McCreery says, with a medallion cardigan height Then she laughed. "I mean, God, West Side Story is so camp!" J W Anderson There was not much hanging on the rail when I visited the studio of Jonathan Anderson on Monday. Well, that's a lie - it was his great resort collection 2014 for women and some guys wavy neutral knit like the bark of the tree, and three pairs of wool pants pocket Oxford. The rest was, in his own words, a "work in progress", even if it was only one week until the work was advancing on the podium. But Anderson, 28, lives in the tension last minute - it's part of what makes their clothing so electrifying. Knits cardboard cut-out shapes and subtle eighties avant-garde antics of Rei Kawakubo and Yohji Yamamoto to be victims Resort references are a good indicator of the next men's fashion. His boys and girls still share a wardrobe: the last season, witness the love-it-or-hate-it ruffles and headbands. For the spring 2014 Anderson has a special focus on the silhouette. It is like a column dress, he said - but for him. It also throws words like "modernity", "clean" or "sterile". But they are against the creeping sensuality Halter Neckline sits exposed and chopped meat and wrapped in the body until in the final result looks like a cross between Araki bondage, obi belt and fabric origami. E Tautz "We do not need too much to the idea of ??marrying suit," said Patrick Grant said. It is in the Norton & Sons Savile Row HQ as he says, and you expect an angry group knife to cut down his door at any time to the honor of the E Tautz, a former tailor Sir Winston Churchill, under which label Grant, right, shows in London Collections defend. Branch men Schneider Grant, about Norton & Sons, doing business in the pound sterling in the department and appropriate start time. E Tautz where subsidy can experiment. For spring, he was looking at the opulence of the menswear Sixties legends Mr. Fish and Granny Takes a Trip, Blades and Savile Row wild children and Tommy Nutter, who drove back to the 1660s, and Charles II, "the first attempt - Brocade .. silk panties petticoat "It's fair to say, E Tautz dandy looks for spring 2014. Richard Nicoll chanel 2.55 bag Richard Nicoll is a realist. This is something that always the female fashion GENUINE Australian London-based designer has failed. It was a refreshing adequate sensitivity since its introduction in 2005. It is also the foundation for his men's collection, is now in its third season. "This is a line of jeans really," Nicoll said modestly, the spring / summer collection 2014 is later today. And in fact there is a humility to fabric - canvas, denim, cotton lawn. Inspiration Nicoll's "Individualism and beautiful ugliness", references, portraits of the new wave and punk inhabitants of Zurich in 1970. He speaks of glamor and DIY undercurrent gay. But the underlying Nicoll is a lot more down there so much, garish fashion offers gay grab bar. The only explicit key? A series of engravings of suggestive and semi-clad boys cut snakes porn mags and collages by the legendary world of art punk and long-term employee Nicoll Linder Sterling, the first part of an exclusive collection, designed together.

Exclusive: Louis Vuitton brands Dinosaur Posters

-bit-for-bit: Art and craft heritage equestrian define Hermès

       As a horse person and avid dressage judge, I had been many equestrian events. But this time it was different.

I went to Paris to enjoy the fourth annual CSI five stars Saut Hermès jumping. With top riders in the world competing on the historic Grand Palace, just a few minutes from the Champs-Elysees, he became one of the hottest tickets on the track jumping. "The Great Hall has a capacity of 4500," said Patrick Thomas, CEO and President of Hermes, "And this year we received more than 12,000 requests for tickets."

I arrived around lunch time as a guest of Hermes, a house that was built on the power since 1837 when its founder Thierry Hermes set up a harness and saddle shop in Paris. Since then the company has expanded far beyond the stool, and was known for impeccably crafted leather handbags, belts, and men's and women's fashion, which helped build the brand one of the world's most exclusive labels.

What made it different journey for me it was a rare visit to the Hermes factory, a look at one of the best brands in the world, where I learned that, although the scene before the Paris flagship store may have opened since 1880, not is much different in the workshop.

In the factory, Hermès still employs artisans trained in fashion each seat by hand. The newest addition to the family, jumping saddle Cavale, borrows from the world of beds as it is injected with a commonly used type of memory foam in the manufacture of mattresses. The result is a lightweight, comfortable saddle. I can attest to its comfort, because I could test on a horse in the Grand Palais.

How Hermes saddles are hand bags and scarves crafted by people with generations of know-how. The formation of new artisans will take several years before all the bags in all types of leather such as crocodile. I had the opportunity to both the bag and the silk scarf and commitment to quality is evident to visit plants. Worthy of the brand, Hermes products are expensive - a handbag Kelly can start at more than $ 8000 and a silk scarf 70cm costs about $ 375 - but here in the factory, you can see why. Produce a bag takes days during scarf makes a company more than 800 hours to workers.

With handbags, a single craftsman for production of a bag from start to in a nod to his roots equestrian is responsible ready, the saddle is still used today, and all prices are hand made in reverse only with the zipper and inside pocket sewn to the machine. "The bags can be ordered, for example, if you want to change the size of Kelly," says Jocelyn Zerbib craftsman "or they can be customized to include a variety of colors and gemstones or precious stones like diamonds." And, if repair is required, the bag is on the person or their teaching, where she was retired from the company.

In the factory scarf Lyon, the process is just as intense. Hermes buys his own silkworms and produce high quality custom silk. "For 50 years we have bought our silkworms China," said Tidiane Kamel, Director of Communications, silk. "But now we have the source of Brazil because they have better quality and consistency of the Hermes thread needs." Most competitors ready-made silk printing to reduce costs. Hermes artisans weave their own, which is more expensive, but a part of their philosophy on quality, engraving a color acetates to time to the fabric for ties, hemming and hand cut and roll the edges of the scarf.

In a world where goods assembly lines are the norm, that Hermes still insist that most of its products by hand, puts the same way he has done for over 175 years, its market - an exclusive no doubt, but one that appeals to all who appreciate quality.

"We are never in a hurry. We step by step," says Thomas. "We want the best quality and it takes 10 years to produce a product, it's perfect for us."

   But, he said, now has his own industry is a big change, because it's hard to compete with a competitor more: technology.

"The technology has killed my area," says John.

"If you and I get a check for the work, or an allowance, we bought a new outfit for a few weeks or months," says John.

"Well, kids nowadays their control and they have a cell phone bill, they lost their charger, they have downloaded 17 applications and have Netflix or 19 have the new iPad and Bluetooth."

Were in a survey conducted in the United States, young people the opportunity to an item they want to have more or buy, where to buy it last year to choose. Thirteen percent said they would prefer a computer, while 12 percent chose a cell phone.

Only 9 percent said that they would like to buy a new pair of shoes - the same party, they would prefer to buy a new book, and only 7 percent took a pair of jeans, according to data from NPD Group, said the market research company, the survey carried out.

"With the realities of the information age, young people access to many forms of communication, sophisticated brands and retailers to develop strategies to educate the public," said Marshal Cohen, chief industry analyst at the NPD Group within.

The seemingly constant release of new gadgets surely pierced a new generation of tech buyers.

Every time Apple's latest tablet is released, some young buyers inevitably align the device to fetch for hours in person. Other scour the Web for sites that could be a new Samsung smartphone or video game consoles from Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo.

Of course, technology manufacturers seem scatter the public release dates for popular today strategically throughout the year devices.

"In some ways, the consumer electronics industry is no different than the fashion industry," says Tim Tang, a technology analyst at IDC, a market research company.

"There is usually a spring collection and a collection [case]. Some designers buy, buy something off-the-peg, some even" Rent the Runway ".

Mr. Tang is not a joke about renting electronics.

In recent years, online businesses emerged around the world as the runway hire, rent luxury and fashion, and offered designer clothes, jewelry and handbags for short term rental. Similarly, companies such as Australia and Rent Smart renta computer, the offices in 1,500 cities around the world, especially for people who are ready devices such as laptops, digital cameras, TVs and tablets will create.

The technology sector has turned inspire the fashion world when it comes to design some equipment. Dell, for example, used the expertise of the designer Vivienne Tam few years ago. Before Fashion Week in New York, Ms. Tam made his debut as a pocket netbook Hewlett-Packard models held in her hands as she strutted the catwalk. Each laptop with peonies and butterflies on its bright cover.

More recently, Bluetooth headsets are marketed as fashion accessories on the market, although some of the high-fashion industry putt were read in the image.

Then there is the category of portable devices even more, the high-tech wireless glasses and bracelets fitness includes monitoring how the Nike + FuelBand or Jawbone Up.

"The Nike FuelBand looks like a Livestrong [charity] band," said Steve Koenig, director of industry analysis at the Consumer Electronics Association, a trade group.

"This is a good way to mix technology with fashion and function. I think this is a way for wider acceptance."

Mr. Koenig also notes smart watches can be the next big "it", which has become in technology, thanks to its mode of action.

"The Pebble is an interesting mash with fashion and technology in a convenient format: a clock," he said.

But what may seem an excessive amount of bids, the industry could see a similar technology in industry response recorded?

The young, urban men, the segment of the apparel manufacturer, was served complete corporate "imitators," John said.

He argues that pushed too many options on the market for consumer and voter fatigue has set in. "It is not the biggest concern," he said. "The boy is gone now back to the point:" I want a pair of Levi's and a T-shirt. "

But at the same time, the aftermarket for this client group is booming. "Things are moving props," says Jean. "It will buy 15 different belt colors, 19 G-Shock watches, a couple of different hats and a pair of basic jeans and a T-shirt."

In some ways, the strategy of John is the battle against technology companies for a larger share of consumer spending seems to run on the old adage: If you can not beat them, join them.

Therefore, it is why the use of its brand Fubu sought, while the granting of licenses to other companies, such as manufacturers of coaches and even manufacturers of headphones is.

"The kids are everything," says John.

Chic by numbers: forecast the trend of fashion

  With offices in Manhattan, New York, Sharon Graubard makes his company to monitor all the fashion trends of the world and turn them into discussions, which can be followed by the customers Stylesight - a trend forecasting company they
is senior vice president.

For men, she says Graubard sees more t-shirts, sweaters, blankets and other such drop-crotch pants, who are hated by people older than 30 years guys.

Drop step haters are more interested in a "luxurious, but very clean" look with buttons shirts and jackets with front zipper net stylish slide.

In the women Graubard sees a "look of film noir", with curved sheath dresses, mannish jacket and dark wine lips.

And the current 1990s revival means grunge is back on the road - but a "neo-grunge" more chic in luxurious materials thinking velvet pajama pants, a plaid shirt and a fur coat chiffon ..

So, how does Graubard with this stuff?

Churning is behind his advice trend is a great company with its own proprietary software and analysts comb through images of fashion teams most influential websites and images of people on the streets. The goal is to discover what is "trendy".

Customer Stylesight run the alphabet of Abercrombie & Fitch to Zara. The company's CEO, Franklin Bober said the volume of images, the geographical distribution of where they come from and how quickly everything can be collected, transformed as trends are born.

"Why we agreed that we would be affected by the technique in many areas of our lives, but we believe that the creative process would be exempt from this?" He asks. "Why do we think creatively not be affected by technology? This is simply not true."
A dynamic business

Forecast fashion trends can be used to organized and prepared cuts and color patterns to work filled with drawings look books. They were sold as concrete and static guides that clothing must be designed so that the trend within 12 or 18 months, which was delivered in the branches.

Today the static Lookbook is over. has moved predict trends online and there is a lot of collaborative and interactive process.

And it is in great demand. Bober was recently in Australia to supervise, an increase in the activity of the local Stylesight - the number of employees has doubled to about 15 and a new office in Sydney is open.

Local clients include Myer, Fusion Retail Brands and Rip Curl.

Bober said that his inclinations come from three sources. First, there are professional forecasters look into the history of the models for what might come.

Stylesight also has its own scouts on shows, events, festivals and hunt around in the shops.

Finally pictures are uploaded by their customers Stylesight tabulated and classified topic.

"We get thousands of pictures in places like Copenhagen, Paris, Milan, Seoul, Shanghai., But a party does not know the photos of other people take," Bober said.

"So our editorial office in New York and London are looking at these pictures and they are in search of subjects. Others words, images that might be similar. Will they start to have someone in Copenhagen see that his left sleeve rolled up and right arm down, then they will see that. several other cities, and it's like a signal "

And that's where the magic taste quotient decisions Stylesight offers its customers.

"This is how trends come, they will not hit on the head. Signals are that you see in the streets and then combine that with what is on the line, which is in the forecast and that is retail" , Bober said.

She used to say that if you know what women want to wear, look Parisian. This is partly still true - except that these days its an algorithm that helps to do research.
