I GOT STRIPES

Sixties, in the wake of the optical paintings of Bridget Riley (in turn inspired by the works of Victor Vasarely), the stripes alternating black and white horizontal, vertical, oblique, gives the feeling of immersing the visitor in space. In fashion stands out on this wave André Courrèges with its clean lines and simplicity of the cuts, and Yves Saint Laurent with "Hypnose" series of 1966.

 Anni '60, sulla scia optical delle tele di Bridget Riley (ispirata a sua volta dai lavori degli anni '30 di Victor Vasarely) , le righe si alternano bianche e nere orizzontali, verticali, oblique dando la sensazione di immergere il visitatore nello spazi. Nella moda si distingue su questa ondata André Courrèges con le sue purezza delle linee e la semplicità dei tagli, e Yves Saint Laurent con la serie "Hypnose" del 1966.

SOCIALITE (YESTERDAY AND TODAY):BABE PALEY-OLIVIA PALERMO

“Mrs. Paley had only one fault: She was perfect; otherwise, she was perfect,” the writer Truman Capote once wrote of his dear friend Babe Paley.
 Paley maintained her position on the best-dressed list fourteen times before being inducted into the Fashion Hall of Fame in 1958. She regularly bought entire haute couture collections from major fashion houses like Givenchy and Valentino. Her personal style was inspirational to thousands of women who tried to copy her, but as Bill Blass once observed, "I never saw her not grab anyone's attention, the hair, the makeup, the crispness. You were never conscious of what she was wearing; you noticed Babe and nothing else."

Olivia  Palermo  is an American socialite, model and actress, and above all she 's a fashion icon. She was a cast member of MTV's reality television show The City. 2008. She signed on to Wilhemina Models in 2009, and in March of 2010 debuted her jewelry line. Olivia Palermo launched her personal website, consisting of a blog about her travels and fashion pieces by herself and two other full-time writers.
