Couture is a way for any lucky designer to showcase its statement of strength and technical ability. Why lucky? Regardless the fact that each this made-to-measure pieces costs a fortune, not anyone nor any fashion house can use that world as a statement per se, because the entry to the schedule is very strictly policed by the Chambre de commerce et d´industrie de Paris and each fashion house before get that statement must meet stringent guidelines, including having a Paris-based atelier with more than 20 people to work in. After all we are talking of the crème de la crème in fashion, building that way a strong image to fashion houses, like Chanel and Dior, who most profits from it gain not through showcased clothes, but through handbags, accessories and beauty products.

Pronounced in French èk-sta-z' is a state of being carried away by overwhelming emotion meaning also a subjective experience of total involvement of the subject, with an object of his or her awareness, or translated in English "ecstasy", a world that originates from the Ancient Greek (ἔκστασις ékstasis) and which classical literature refers to removal of the mind or body "from its normal place of function". This loss of self-control that can be also a temporary loss of consciousness can be brief in terms of time or it can go on for hours, depending the way you reach it, often associated with sexual intercourse, religious mysticism, not to mention certain drugs, but excluding the last two, beside the physical-get-into mental pleasure, ecstasy can be also inductive by creative activities, as may be art and music. For me ecstasy is simply the moment of heartfelt happiness, happiness as a state of true spontaneity.

Borrowing from the men for woman is not a yesterday thing, but a well know honored tradition, from women of the past as Marlene Dietrich, Katharine Hepburn (known her Love for Brooks Brothers ‘garments) to the Coco Chanel herself, coming to nowadays represented by Tilda Swinton, Caroline De Maigret, Jil Sander, Gaia Repossi and many more.

It´s not just a tomboy trend-look that is very popular now….it´s about the elegance of sartorial menswear translated and reinterpreted into womenswear daily look, flair, comfort, natural and intellectual.
