You know very well that I like to find events here and there and if I could, I would go and look around everywhere, meet new people and learn about their stories, their collections of objects, their products or artifacts. Today I want to highlight Mercanti in viaggio, a wonderful event about Vintage, handmade, design, new trends, vinyl, swing music and vintage happy hour, which will be held on October 5th and 6th in the beautiful setting of Quistini Castle and its gardens, in Franciacorta.

The main theme of the event will be the journey in all its forms, with trunks, suitcases, bags and hats as protagonists. Not only that, you’ll also find objects and furniture design, vinyl records, used items, recycled and crafts.

“Mercanti in viaggio” will be a must for all fashion enthusiasts, collectors and the merely curious who will have the opportunity to visit the magnificent gardens of the castle –  including mazes of roses, secret gardens, a bio-energetic garden and the orchard of ancient fruits – to discover the halls with their rich history, dressed for the occasion with a scenography from another time, in perfect harmony with the vintage atmosphere of the event.

Chanel Haute Couture F/W ’13-’14 http://www.daydreamland.it/en/chanel-haute-couture-fw-13-14/ http://www.daydreamland.it/en/chanel-haute-couture-fw-13-14/#comments Wed, 28 Aug 2013 08:40:43 +0000 Giò http://www.daydreamland.it/?p=270 photos: blacklog

Can fashion reflect reality, and through its language make us think?

Perhaps Haute Couture, an art form that’s the result of study and research, can do it, in its dialogue with the whole world.

Let’s talk about Chanel Haute Couture fashion show fall / winter ’13-’14, a fashion show that is almost equivalent to a perfectly staged theatrical play. And it is no coincidence that I’m talking about stage and scene, because the scene  that was set up inside the Grand Palais is a show that has been designed and produced in an entirely rebuilt theater: the stage with its curtain and the backdrop, the audience and its armchairs.

It is, however, a run-down theater, full of debris, dust, with ruined seats, a filthy curtain, scaffoldings holding up bits of a collapsed ceiling.

Chanel Haute Couture FW 13/14

It is, however, a run-down theater, full of debris, dust, with ruined seats, a filthy curtain, scaffoldings holding up bits of a collapsed ceiling.

A glimpse of a world in full decay, in which the audience probably will not even notice its current state and observes the future before him, motionless, while immersed in the uncertainties.

The curtain rises and the models parade on a futuristic backdrop, a bit aseptic, a bit unreal.

Everything is studied in detail, it’s a great scene that fits well one of the most anticipated and “illustrious” catwalks of Paris, like a large theater premiere.

Will it be enough to focus on creativity, on the genius of visionaries and artists? We don’t know whether to believe it or not, but deep down we hope for it.

Chanel tries and shows us their vision, and maybe they are successful in their intent, to amaze and enchant leaving his audience speechless; to distract us and enjoy the show, before the curtain falls once again.
