Long Live the King!!!!

The man in question is Monsieur Azzedine Alaia. Words cannot express the creativity this man puts into a silhouette he has been working on and re-producing for 20 years. It leaves me breathless and consumed with uncontrollable desire.


I have been coveting this bag he designed for Louis Vuitton's monogram canvas's 100th birthday since 1996.

My newest crush and carved in stone on my wish list is an Azzedine Alaia A/W '10 pony hair leopard print dress which costs the same price as a secondhand MINI One. I drive a MINI Cooper and have considered selling it and my soul for this dress. At least I'll have spare change to top up my oyster card as I skip home from Dover Street Market with this in my possession grinning from ear to ear.
