Designer we love: Fausto Puglisi

Le sicilien Fausto Puglisi habille déjà les plus grands, d'Anna Dello Russo à Madonna. Pourtant il n'a pas encore la même notoriété en France. La faute à ces tenues dignes des plus fastes années de Gianni Versace où les ornements d'or se mêlent au cuir sans crainte d'en faire trop! Nous en tous cas on adore!! Plus sur son site ici

Designers we love : Una Burke


Úna Burke is a luxury leather accessories designer who utilises traditional leather-working skills in the creation of sculptural belts, corsets, jewellery, handbags and abstract body pieces. I love her use of the craftmenship in leather with such skimpy and complex shapes. Uncomfortable but amazingly impressive!
