Quelques flashes de Flash Mode à l'Alliance Française, kind of peruvian fashion week
The theme was architecture reflected on clothing. There were many interesting proposals: Katia Nakamura with her silver jewelry and her interpretation of "rejas", old and new ones. Lovely jewelry I must say.
Carla Reaño and her futuristic urban collection.
Denisse Távara and her black collection, combining different black fabrics that showed us that black has many hues, playing with textures and yes, black is not just black!
Levi Exaltación, a guy who likes using different fabrics besides cotton, trying with fabrics we are not used to see in clothing.
These are the few designers I could interview, discovering a new facet of myself: asking questions about their work, they were eager to tell me about them!
Maybe I should become an interviewer, it's very interesting!
I forgot to mention the sculptures of Rhony Alhalel, the guest artist for this exposition. And Mme. l'ambassatrice Cécile Pozzo Di Borgo.

Bowl of fruits ring
My sister came up with that name...I liked it!
I have to tell the story behind this piece.
The ring itself was part of another ring that I didn't like at all: it was my first day at jewelry school and as always, I decided not to follow the design we had to make. So I made things more complicated, as usual...don't ask me why! I was not happy at all with the top of the ring, I was about to melt it and start from scratch, but I said to myself, "I have half a ring done, why not change the top?" And I did. Thanks to a tiny silver spoon (a souvenir from a wedding I think)and wire and oxidised silver, this is the result of recycled items. I was planning to keep it in my finger but after a couple of years, now it's on sale. I really like it and I hope you do too.
I forgot to mention that this is a OOAK ring, I do not like to repeat myself, unless is by request...
Have fun!
