FEEL'N theatrically nude
There is a sence of theatrical staging standing in front of a mirror, moving from side to side, turning around, looking at every angle of ones body, on the dress that covers up or reveals it all....
The play of 'the dress up' is in some ways the feeling of stading completley nude, the in between moment where one changes from on outfit to another outfit. The confrontation with every emotion the reflection gives through the mirror.

All the questions, the search, the growth from a girl to a woman. What is hiding underneath all the layers of 'feathers'....

PIONER MY JEWLS
From childhood jewelry were the treasures discoverd in the chambers of a Chanel clad grandmother in her parisien apartment - 'la chic femme parisienne' and her diamond rings. This was a pionering moment for a little girl...a little flocker.

MA has in the past year build up a range of different jewelry lines from brands that represent a selection of fine & hand made jewelry. With a classic design & edgy finish these jewelry lines introduces an approache that reflects on the idea of avant garde design to the idea of a classic form with an edgy take. 
Materials from precious stones and diamonds with gold or sliver to simpel silk ribbons are what fills the counter at MA. 
The contrasts of the different lines gives it all an intriguing mixture as well as it tempts one to bedazle ones feathers and use every force to get it....

INSPIRATION ARISTO IN MY SKIN
The excentric and blue blooded, Honourable Daphne Guinness feature in Vogue Italia intrigues and provocs as it gives one the lust & desire to stribe after a style where there are no bounderies. This is Lady Gaga, before Gaga even was born. 
Guinness was a great collector and follower of the late Lee Alexander McQueen and would in many occasion be seen dressed in McQueen from head to toe. 
The feature inspires in it's composition to the scenography of the background, the pieces & layers on Guinness to the blueish lightening. 
Most of all it inspires to dress without thinking of occasion and with the attitude of an 'aristobrat' gone rouge... rocking ones feathers out...

In the latest T Magazine for spring 2011, Balenciaga's spring dresses are featured in a spread by fashion editor/Stylist, Vanessa Traina. 
The editoral is with the actress Salma Hayeck, featured as the parisienne housewife. A rather luxuries housewife lying on the floor in pieces from Balenciaga to Yves Saint Laurent, but a fierce one and that we do like with the bonus of Balenciaga....



A MOMENT SOIREE CANNES
The film festival at Cannes is as much abut the evenings and 'les soirée' held for 'les peoples' as it is a view into the world of the cinema. The film festival considerd as one of the or if not the most important festival in cinema, is a red hot week of passion for the cinema & for fashionista's of the red carpet to the long evenings of delights...

RAINY SUNDAY SUN
It was maybe about time the rain came falling down on the city. As the summer had indeed come early and with no delay giving the idea one could soon just say 'summer time'. 
So what should one do on a rainy sunday or better said, what could one do? 
Loving the rain, one could go out and let the feathers feel the drops of rain, but needing sleep or wanting to just need it, one could just stay in bed...
With the window slightly open, listening to the rain fall down on the ground with the wind blowing - there is a peace of mind.

So from a flocker to a flocker just breathe and let your mind be taken away with the rain...
