Tsumori Chisato at Villa Moda Mubarikiya

Tsumori Chisato is one of those designers whom I'm passionate about and almost every season I tend to buy a piece or two from her collection. Tsumori Chisator is known for her eclectic pieces and quirky designs. Not everyone will appreciate her work and her designs are definitely not for the minimalists. They can be described in two words: Bohemian Chic.

Villa Moda is the only store in Kuwait where you can buy Tsumori Chisato's collection. And Villa Moda Mubarikiya has just received TC's Fall 2007 collection (with a hefty price tag). Unfortunately, I was slightly disappointed with her collection this season. Something was missing. Anyhow, here's some of what's available in store now.




And here are some pictures of Tsumori Chisato's pre-fall collection which are also available at Villa Moda Mubarikiya.

Tell me something, which of these do you write for: Alef, Thouq or Bazaar? And you still haven't spilt the beans on that price tag of a Tsumori Chisato ( blimey! what a mouthful). Out with it now! In some ways I can almost begin to see a "Aki Narula" of sorts emerging right there in this collection. Who btw is the chief merchandiser for Villa Moda Mubarakiya? Also do they home deliver stuff to friends and relatives for you in the festive season?

Well, Thank you very much, I'll take that as a compliment ;)
Tsumori Chisato's prices ranges between KD 200 and KD 700. Most of her casual cotton tops are no less than KD 200 or KD 150 minimum.

I'm not quite sure who's the senior fashion buyer at VM. I think he/she is doing a good job in terms of the selection of designers but need to work on the selection of items a little bit. VM offering at home personal shopping service? highly unlikely. Then again, I wouldn't know. They might give it to their V.V.I.P clients?

Saks In Bahrain

I went to Saks Fifth Avenue store in Bahrain. The two-level store is located in City Centre Mall and has a collection of American and international clothes designers for Men and Women as well as jewelry, accessories, handbags, fragrances, cosmetics, intimate apparel, bridal, and children's apparel. However, I was slightly disappointed by the small selection, maybe because all items were on sale? Or the number and variety of brands were limited? Anyhow, my favourite section at Saks - Bahrain was Saks's world-famous 10022-SHOE salon (shown in the photo below). It had the same look & feel of the NY's shoe salon but of course not the same space. The Shoe Salon had really nice selection and they were all on sale! I have been told by Saks Sales Assistant that they will be hosting numerous special events throughout the year such as fashion shows and personal appearances by designers. Now that's something I'd be interested in! In addition, they currently offer in-st
