Villa Moda Al Manshar is Close to Reality

Villa Moda's official group on Facebook has invited its members to submit questions for the first live video interview with the team behind the concept for their 4th location in Kuwait: Villa Moda, Al Manshar (Madinat Al-Fahaheel, Kuwait) which is due to open at the beginning of 2008 with the unique concept brought by Sybarite UK. Here are some sketches of the concept which was displayed by Villa Moda's group. Click on the images for a larger view:





The concept of Villa Moda Al Manshar, carried out by Sybarite, is an architectural and design practice that aims to tease all of the human senses and to sculpt architecture into the living environment in which it exists, whilst retaining complete functionality.

Sybarite UK are already responsible for stores such as, Marni (Milan), Joseph (London), Junko Shimada (Tokyo / Paris) and now Villa Moda (Al Manshar - Kuwait).

A selection of 15 final questions shall be chosen for the interview. The deadline for sumitting the questions on facebook is 20th November 2007.

I assure them of my custom provided they offer me a free chopper ride from a convenient nodal to Al Manshar and back.

Spare me the ordeal of signing up on Facebook. You can forward to them my question for what it's worth.

Haute couture pour homme in Kuwait is in the dumps today. What can Villa Moda do, in coming years, to shake up things in this department to make fashion more men friendly?

First of all thank you 'Confashion' for helping push the PR of the group.

Bashar, thank you.

Goda zayaani, kindly noted.

61 year old virgin, no need to sign up for the full use of facebook, it can purely be for the group or if you send us your email we can store you on our soon to be monthly newsletters.

Your question is a good one and my shortest response would be to look out for the unique and villa moda commissioning of the traditional 'dishdashas' designed by TOM FORD.

Thanks again all.

Chanel Dubai Cruise 2015 Collection

I can't remember if I shared my views about Chanel's Dubai Cruise 2015 Collection on my blog or not, but I thought I'd share with you some photos of the pieces on display now at Chanel Boutique in Kuwait, Prestige in the Avenues and Salhiya Complex. I wasn't too crazy about the clothes. However, I did like some of the bags which had pompoms and tassels on them, as well as the gigantic pearl clutch. I also loved the Moroccan-inspired pointy flats and the silver jewelry adorned with coins and crescents. Of course the shoes were sold out in my size and I wasn't so crazy about the patterned ones. I LOVED the flap bag with Pom Poms, but it was above my budget. Overall the collection felt more Moroccan than Dubai-an. I wish if they have incorporate more of the our gulf region's culture into the designs. Oh And I added to this post photos of Chanel's milk carton shaped python clutch bag embellished with a CC signature. They're not part of the Dubai colle

Altuzarra or Aquazzura?

That is the question. It took me a whole season to finally tell these two brands apart, and this season, there's no mistake, each brand is now engraved in my fashion database like a personalized Tiffany's pen. And this Resort 2015 season, I'm head over heels with their flats, on display now at AlOthman Boutique . Altuzarra's version comes in a tonal-gray water snake and are decorated with beige shells, red beads and silver sequins. Aquazzura's lace-up sandals come in a beautiful shade of apple green, and will work with white or bright colored casual summer outfit.  After much thought and sole-searching, I have decided to go for the  Altuzarra   sandals. They're safely stored in my closet, waiting for the dust and the cold to go away.  Which pair would you go for?

To New Beginnings...

"What did this Corona crisis teach you?" my friend asked. My first thought was thing crisis has opened my eyes on the simple pleasures of life. My priorities have changed. And I feel every day is a new beginning. First of all, it made me realize how much I miss blogging. How simple and mentally satisfying it was to jolt down my thoughts on a field that I was very passionate about. I have to admit that I'm not as passionate now. Don't get me wrong, I still like fashion, but it's now on the bottom of my priorities list. I would like to blog about other things too that I feel much related to. I recently discovered that I do enjoy cooking. For the longest time, cooking to me was a nightmare.  This corona crisis has taught us that we can look forward to a new day with new possibilities to contribute or to help another, or to simply approach things differently, and most importantly to make the most of each day we have and share that goodness with others.
