Behind The Curtain: 'Ricochet HOMME'

Dear Audiences


It is my pleasure to take you behind the curtain to witness the exclusivities by RICOCHET, the brand with the most solid character.

Effortlessly, RICOCHET stays adhere to the true self through seasons and pieces. And, latter most, genders.

I was given neither notice nor hint regarding the menswear collection beforehand. Therefore, it is at my delight to finally meet the boy version made by Boom Thananant, the creative director of RICOCHET.

This boy was born in 2014, however, he wishes badly to be living in the '50s. He is quiet, but expresses himself quite loudly for his style is outstanding with the palette of dark colour, tailored suits and flare trousers.

You could finally meet him, observe him, and even take him home with you.

Whisper secret in your eyeballs, he has a surprise prepared for you specially for this Valentines'.

At best,

Fall Ready-to-Wear 2014: "ROCHAS, the limelight."

Marco Zanini's departure for the revival of Schiaparelli does put the spotlight on the house of Rochas. All the fashion academia would obtain knowledge in respect of the talented Elsa Schiaparelli; but for those who are not into Fashion History 101, the brief definition would be she is the greatest rival of Coco Chanel whose creation appeared on iconic figures such as Duchess of Windsor. 

For someone to be trusted on the reincarnation of such legendary name would have to be very talented, obviously, and Zanini has been in charge of Rochas for over five years - mirroring the fact that Rochas has seen impeccable productions and supervision over 10 seasons straight. 

It does come in naturally that I, whom had not been previously taken much by, began to notice and looked forward to appreciate the creation made under the roof.

Alessandro Dell'Acqua, from No.21, was replaced as creative director and he does not disappoint me. The bejeweled gloves are weaponry, along with the use of fabric; simplicity from afar and killing details in close-up. It will serve for no exaggeration to say that every items put together for the collection are massively significant and alone would be a4 to-die-for statement. 

R's Of The Moment: "Lana Del Rey, Tropico."

The just released short film from the pretty face with mourning voice, Lana Del Rey, called 'Tropico', consisted of three songs and impressive quotes in between.

You may or you may not know how religious Del Rey is. I personally don't know for a fact whether she is a strict Christian, or she just carries the love in conveying God and Jesus within her words and rythme.

Watch how Lana Del Rey interprets the idea of the Garden of Eden.
See how she translates the virtuous messages written in the Bible.
Witness her Adam and Eve escape from the garden of God, then, of Monsters.
Allow yourself to gain visual pleasure through beautifully edits and filters.

I really hope you enjoy.

Once Upon A Time... by Karl Lagerfeld.

Dear Audiences


In these past few days, the hype has been all about The Met Ball "Punk: Chaos to Couture" of which sparked my excitement for this event like never before - one reason may be because my love for Tisci. I personally think this year's fashion and the variety of figures attended very much impressed me. 

But, it is not what I am going to be posting about. 

My current hype right now is the latest short film directed by the most powerful figure and genius of the era, Karl Lagerfeld.

"Once Upon A Time..." sets in the 1913 during the first days of the House of Chanel. It's starred the British beauty who has just got married in the most adorable and low-key dress made for her by Uncle Karl himself, Keira Knightley.

I love all the looks featured in the film, even though, many characters appeared on screen just walking without any speaking line or interaction.

Love Lindsay Wixton!

MY FAVOURITE LOOK!!!!!

The last look is my most favourite! Obsessed with the gothic aura! LOVE!

Like the detail on Boy's shirt collar.

Well, personally, I think this is the most film-like among many produced by Monsieur Lagerfeld so far. I adore the fact that it is in black&white, very very classic. 


Be those among the first! It's just premiered today!

And be anticipated for the cruise collection to be shown to the world in Singapore tomorrow! 

Keep up with me so I'm sure to bring you the recap and review!
