Le Selby in Colette’s Window in Paris

If you have not heard of it yet, theselby.com is a very inspiring, interesting blog that presents you pictures of creative people’s homes and workplaces.
For the curious, it is great! You can really appreciate the strong styles and personalities of people through the way they decorate their place. It is also like looking at someone’s life, what people collect, what they do with all these things, the colors, the textures…
The man behind this is Todd Selby. Not only did he have a great idea, but he is a very talented photographer and illustrator.

Two weeks ago, during Paris’ fashion week, a window at Colette was dedicated to the man himself and it was set up like a bedroom where it seems that he was spending most of his time… Here are some pictures I took of him while passing by.

From March 30 to May 2nd Colette will host a Selby shop. you can see here what it will be like.

He also had the visit of Olivier Zham whose pictures of the purple diary were also exhibited in Colette.

Alice in Wonderland

As you know, I have been waiting for quite a while for Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland Movie, starring Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter and Helena Bonham Carter as the Red Queen, and I have not been alone. It is amazing how everybody is inspired or is tapping in the commerciality of this event.

The department store Le Printemps in Paris has developed the theme in its own store, from a tea Salon to incredibly beautiful windows. Le Printemps has invited nine fashion designers to create an interpretation of Alice’s dress as well as the Mad Hatter’s costume. the hand-picked designers are Alexander McQueen, Maison Martin Margiela, Ann Demeulemeester, Chloé, Haider Ackermann, Manish Arora, Christopher Kane, Nicholas Kirkwood and Bernhard Willhelm,
