Egon Schiele

(Vogue Italia, 1996. Photographed by Paolo Roversi)

Egon Schiele has always been an amazing source of inspiration for me. His paintings represent a very personal and revolutionary vision of the world, especially for the time they were created. Yest I still find his work incredibly modern. I particularly love the atmosphere he created in his portraits: glorious and distorted, a sublime and twisted celebration of sensuality.

Gertrude Schiele

A spirit of sober luxury guides this season's new collection, in which Vienna of the 1900s meets with Klimt and Schiele in a universe of extreme refinement.

When one delves into the lifes and work of Schiele, it is impossible not to find inspiration. His unique and exquisite artistry allows him to depict both overt sexuality and the un-selfconscious innocence of childhood.

I need structure

Jumping between jobs and let downs these past few weeks, it is safe to say "I'm on the right track". Currently working in the fashion industry and boy oh boy is it interesting!
Interesting as I described it as is somewhat a polite understatement. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy every second of it. The buzz of potential buyers, fabrics and accessories that will be used in the coming year. It's all part of this exciting process.

I absolutely love being inspired, extending my creativity and having fun. Unfortunately, it is not all fun and frolic. You need to fit a distinctive criteria which can be stereotyped, cynical and unoriginal in the sense - you should look like those around you.

Where is the individuality? The open arms waiting for some crazy interpretation. I just wished women took a stand and stopped subscribing to wasting themselves in this cut throat melodrama.

I am done with school for this semester! No more exams, no more books... I can't contain myself.
It gives me time to catch up with sleep and I can reply to all your comments. So sorry!

I'll keep it short and I promise I will look after the blog! Thank you so much for sticking around
