Azzedine Alaia to Open First Store in Decades

Jul 9, 2012 @ 5:30 pm

Now we have another reason to dream about jetting off to Paris! Azzedine Alaia, whose body-conscious designs are loved by celebrities like Katie Holmes, Paula Patton, and Gwyneth Paltrow, is opening his first store since his New York outpost closed in 1992. The flagship, which debuts next spring near Avenue Montaigne, the heart of Parisian luxury retail, will feature five floors and a courtyard area—the perfect setting for outdoor parties. While the designer has dressed his star clients for some of their most important moments—remember Sofia Coppola’s wedding gown and Kim Kardashian’s Oscars dress?—he prefers to keep a low profile, making this launch on the luxury shopping scene even more exciting!

I totally agree with you. Fashion shows are for eodbyrvey, but there are fashion shows and fashion shows. There are still those for the rich and famous only and others for people like you and me. In Madeira, where we have to make do with what is available, sometimes we have fashion shows in shopping centres, which can be attended by anybody and are usually during the afternoon. However there are also others, at night and of a more sofisticated kind, in more selected venues, for a selected public. Taking place in Madeira, I wouldn’t say these are for the rich and famous only, because the island doesn’t have that many of those people, but they certainly are for upper-middle class people. It has already happened that a fashion show was organized by a stylist living in mainland, bringing models, clothes, acessories everything from over there. Lots of airport transfers they must have needed
