The Armoury - Artisanal Clothiers. Le retour du chapeau : choisissez le vôtre. Un véritable raz-de-marée de chapeaux Panama s’est abattu sur le Pitti Uomo cette année !
Les couvre-chefs étaient légion, aussi bien sur les têtes des amateurs de style classique que sur celles des fashionistas qui cherchaient tout à la fois à se protéger du chaud soleil du Pitti, mais également à donner un petit (gros ?) Coup de fouet à leur prestance car il faut bien l’avouer, un beau chapeau, ça a vraiment de la gueule. L’on peut avancer sans trop prendre de risque l’idée que l’invention du chapeau répondait jadis à des besoins purement pratiques : se protéger de la pluie, du soleil ou des dangers, dans le cas de chapeaux de protection. Plus tard, le chapeau prit une dimension cérémonielle – des casquettes d’apparat pour les militaires aux couvre-chefs élaborés pour les différents clergés, le chapeau devint un symbole de statut dans la société.
Nous avons relevé ci-dessous les huit types de chapeaux qui dominent depuis quelques temps la scène du style masculin occidental. 1. 2. 3. 4. Tradition seit 1858. Two Nerdy History Girls: The Finer Points of an 18th c. Man's Shirt. Susan reporting: There are few historical garments more misrepresented than an 18th c. man's shirt.
For European men from the middle ages into the mid-19th c., the shirt was not only an indispensible piece of clothing; it was a democratic one, too. The shirts worn by George III would have been cut exactly the same as the ones worn by his grooms, as well as by Thomas Jefferson, Beau Brummel, Tom Jones, and Mr. Darcy. You know what they looked like: silky, lace-trimmed shirts cut to open like a modern tux shirt, on everyone from those Founding Fathers in the bank commercials to Fabio. Uh, no. Fashioning Beau Brummell: Crazy Regency Collars!

We wear our favorite shoes hundreds of times before throwing them out or restoring them. And, if our shoes look good and feel good on our feet, then somehow we feel better than if our shoes are in bad shape. Home. Accueil - Marc-Antoine Barrois. Nouvelle Vague - Aubercy.

Sharen Davis Aims 'Django Unchained' for Oscar Costume Glory. Django Unchained's Sharen Davis may just become the first costume designer to earn an Oscar nomination for working on a Quentin Tarantino-directed film.
She has the pedigree, with Oscar nominations for Ray and Dreamgirls, and Critics Choice and Costume Designers Guild Awards for her work on The Help. PHOTOS: 'Django Unchained' Costume Designer Sharen Davis Vies for Oscar Gold None of Tarantino’s films -- from Reservoir Dogs (1992) to Inglourious Basterds (2009) have garnered a Costume Design Oscar nomination, as the honor is usually reserved for painstakingly perfect period films beloved by the academy.
But Django Unchained is a period film, set in the deep south in 1858, just before the Civil War. And the film’s bright palette and combination of Southern peacock finery, lavish gowns with the rock star style of Italian spaghetti westerns may catch the Oscar voters’ eyes -- if they can see past the buckets of blood. Sharen Davis Costume Interview: Django Unchained. Despite being twice Oscar nominated, for Ray in 2004 and then Dreamgirls and 2006, costume designer Sharen Davis has yet to win the big one.
She ticks a lot of the Academy’s boxes too: period clothes, stage wear, real life people. However, Ms. Davis is not just about history and glamour, her work is thoughtful, detailed and appropriate to tone. Django Unchained is the first time Sharen Davis has worked with Quentin Tarantino, as generally he favours using different costume designers depending on the project. Yet on this evidence the director is likely to employ her services again. Sartoria Domenico Caraceni. Timothy Everest - Bespoke.
