{verte + blanche}

Green and white for an early August night . . .

{Have never lived in any places with green, either on the walls or as accents, and yet always seem drawn to it in the homes of others . . .}

Andres Sarda - Lingerie on the Catwalk

We love it when a high-end lingerie label does a runway show, and almost every season we can count on Andres Sarda to strut its stuff on the catwalk. We have posted on Andres Sarda before, but for those of you just joining our blog, Sarda is a nearly 50-year-old luxury lingerie label from Barcelona.
The images shown here are from its Fall/Winter 2008 show. To be honest, we've seen better runway pictures from this brand in the past, but these are certainly worth showing. The above images look very ready-to-wear, and the bottom images are very much lingerie. We would like to see more images of the nude/shimmer outfit (below on the blonde) - it looks like something we would have purchased, if we could (you know how it is with runway...it's not always a reality when it comes to the actual pieces sold in stores).
We suggest that you check out this older post with previous Andres Sarda runway pictures - one of our favorites!
You can purchase Andres Sarda products here.

{a perfect time}

A new week, a new month, and a perfect time to start anew, fresh and with blank a canvas, finish last month's projects, and plan for the adventures ahead . . .

Rosamosario on the Runway

images via Fashion Wire Daily

Rosamosario took part in a runway show in Rome as a contender for the 'Who Is On Next' fashion award. The show, organized in part by Vogue Italy, featured young talent emerging in the fashion world. Though the brand did not take home the top honors, it certainly was in good company, and did get selected as a finalist among 300 candidates!

We enjoyed this quote as reported by Fashion Wire Daily:

Rosamosario, an eccentrically edgy lingerie line whose theme was wearing underwear on the outside, because as its designer Carlotta Danti explained, “Italians do not like to hide things. They don’t buy a Lamborghini to put it in the garage, but to drive to St Tropez and meet a beautiful girl.”
