FROM LONDON
Sedef Kokcuoglu has filed her London
Fashion reviews, and reports that the
overall London Look remains youthful, quirky, and joyous. It was
great to see supermodel Naomi Campbell back in London where she
started out at the tender age of 15.

FROM MILAN
Sedef Kokcuoglu covered
Milan Autumn 2005 and tells us that Black
is Back with a vengeance. When Christian Lacroix designs a Pucci collection
with serious black overtones, we can concur that Black is the
new Black and all the other one liners we know and love about
this often-seen
fashion phenomenon.

FROM
PARIS AND THE PYRÉNÉES
Our Paris friends Josiane and Daniel
Fruman have created one of the largest and best collections
of European liturgical embroideries between the 15th and
18th centuries, as well as American quilts they believe are the
first beginnings of Pop Art. These priceless treasures may soon
have a permanent home in a palais épiscopal
in the beautiful town of Mirepoix, located in the Pyrénées.
We will keep our readers updated about the progress of
this new museum which is so important for the history of embroideries
and therefore couture itself.
Maison des Pyrénées, 15, rue Saint-Augustin,
75002 Paris 01.42.86.51.86 or mairie@mirepoix.fr
