CULT Fashion: Paris Fashion Week AW13
CULT Fashion: Balmain Homme AW13 Paris Fashion Week
I’m not that enamoured with this offering from Balmain, in fact this boxy silhouette emerging particularly in Paris I find unflattering, but there are some strong looks (shown).

The Day I Did The Can Can.
As it was my birthday Tuesday, I decided to get away to Paris for a few days.
Josephine Baker
One of the worlds most enduring icons is Josephine Baker, a pivotal legend of the Jazz Age and a woman who is still admired and revered to this day, the world over;
‘Josephine Baker sashayed onto a Paris stage during the 1920s with a comic, yet sensual appeal that took Europe by storm. Famous for barely-there dresses and no-holds-barred dance routines, her exotic beauty generated the nicknames “Black Venus,” “Black Pearl” and “Creole Goddess.” ‘
What many people don’t know about Baker is that she was actually a member of the French Resistance during WWII.;
‘Josephine served France during World War II in several ways. She performed for the troops, and was an honorable correspondent for the French Resistance (undercover work included smuggling secret messages written on her music sheets) and a sub-lieutenant in the Women’s Auxiliary Air Force. She was later awarded the Medal of the Resistance with Rosette and named a Chevalier of the Legion of Honor by the French government for hard work and dedication. ’
CULT Watch: Lily & Lionel Scarves
New to Liberty for this season, Lily and Lionel’s ethically sourced scarves are produced and made using skilled native craftsmen and come in a range of prints. I particularly like the Cityscape scenes (New York, London and Paris)
