<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">New signature parfum, <i>Bal D'Afrique</i> by Byredo picked up from <a href="http://www.colette.fr/" target="_blank">Colette</a> in Paris this summer. A warm and romantic vetiver inspired by Paris in the late 20's and its
infatuation with African culture, art, music and dance. A mix of the
Parisian avantgardism and African culture shaped a unique and vibrant
expression. The intense life, the excess and euphoria is illustrated by
Bal d'Afrique's neroli, African marigold, and Moroccan cedarwood.</span>Erika Dalya Massaquoihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02518592060653795670noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036961005901030117.post-30343803993011634842013-10-30T17:41:00.002-04:002013-10-30T17:41:46.938-04:00Wild Silk!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I've always admired Lisa's 60's inspired sensibility. She's a graduate of FIT and last year she spoke at commencement. Her clear lucite platforms were so insanely beyond chic--I almost snatched them off her tiny feet! </span>Erika Dalya Massaquoihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02518592060653795670noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036961005901030117.post-53798959218886288092012-07-08T18:05:00.000-04:002012-07-08T18:07:16.679-04:00Bedraggled Glamour<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Years ago I interviewed director/cinematographer Albert Maysles about he and his brother's
roles in the development of cinema verité documentary making and we discussed <i>Grey Gardens</i>. I never tire of this image--the brooch on the scarf and the holey fur--so broken-down, yet elegant.Erika Dalya Massaquoihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02518592060653795670noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036961005901030117.post-64355701511299224472012-06-10T00:05:00.001-04:002012-07-08T18:06:40.724-04:00Wardrobe essentials<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</div><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">This dress is so great for a museum or gallery show opening. Lisa Perry's back story of growing up with Marimekko, Saarinen, caftans, and textiles everywhere has always inspired me. I used to pop into her store when her flagship was in Soho--all glossy white and primary colors.

</div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I'm dying over here; the new Kate Spade campaign is sick! Loving that they've paid homage to Florence Broadhurst--designer of extraordinary hand-printed wallpaper in the 60s! Florence's flamboyant style had a variety of influences: her native Australia, Moroccan textiles, Renaissance motif. You know how I feel about a strong graphic statement--the black and cream floral--creamsicle and hot pink? Striking! The last photo is Ms. Broadhurts's <i>Cockatoos</i>, one of her more artistically successful wallpapers. </div>Erika Dalya Massaquoihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02518592060653795670noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036961005901030117.post-16294255020744234892012-01-27T15:34:00.002-05:002012-01-27T15:36:40.684-05:00Susie Bubble<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="225" mozallowfullscreen="" src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/35679299?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0" webkitallowfullscreen="" width="400"></iframe><br />

At school, we work with a lot of talented students and one of them, Jusil Carroll, was not only the recipient of the <a href="http://www.fitnyc.edu/8482.asp">CFDA Liz Claiborne Design Scholarship</a>, but today she just won the <a href="http://www.supima.com/see-whats-new/blog-post/supima_design_competition_at_mercedes-benz_fashion_week/">Supima Design Competition</a> at <a href="http://www.wwd.com/fashion-news/fashion-scoops/supimas-best-5124540">Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week</a>. We'll be able to say we knew her when!</div>
