What's better than a weekend in London to escape the monotony and anxiety of a city like Milan, where the space devoted to creativity and art are reduced even more? So my trip to london becomes more than a normal weekend of pure leisure and shopping. In fact labor Wednesday, October 14.
The 15 are a guest of the opening of Blue & Joy , born Daniel Sigalot and Fabio La Fauci, friends now for several years, within the Salvatore Ferragamo boutique in London shopping street, the wonderful Old Bond Street. It 'a cocktail that leaves at 18.00 and ends at 22.00.
Thursday at 20.30 arriving at the opening and the store is already full of guests, each with its own champagne flute in hand. The works of some artists' everywhere, and the models parading on a catwalk "ups and downs" the autumn-winter 2008-2009.
The atmosphere is lively but relaxed. I greet the boys and I congratulate you on setting up and truly original works, as always. In particular I am struck by the giant dog (which is a bit 'the star of the show), proceeds from the collage of thousands of buttons branded "ferragamo".
The evening continues amid chatter, smiles and tears of Blue and Joy, new knowledge, music, clothes and shoes and eye glasses bellavista and meet a lot of unexpected "fans" of Paola & Chiara are Italian, but live and work as professionals in London for years. All open and very nice turn out and show very appreciative of the look that I chose for this evening. The thing I'm proud of not a little.
At the meeting, even cocktails Gilla Bertotti, who kindly informs me that London is being " Frieze Art Fair ", one of the most important art fairs in the world. Gilla, super cute and offers to "escort" Saturday at the fair. It would take her to procure an entrance. Excited, which I gladly accept more!
Upon saying goodbye, feeling that I carry on, in my hotel room, is that London is beautiful, yes, but that Italy, who work and live here permanently, and not just miss you ...
