Please Save Couture

I'm a great fan of Christian Lacroix. I went out of my way to see two of his special retrospective exhibitions. Now his haute couture business is closing shop. There will be a skeletal staff of 11 employees left, to handle accessories and fragrance.



The video report here.

Maybe he will re-invent himself like Mizrahi -for Walmart. :P

Btw, love the new blog format, it is sooo chic!

I hope a private investor opens a small and permanent fashion museum for Lacroix couture, to preserve his work, his hertiage ... just like how Yves Saint Laurent has a museum.

Thanks for the blog design compliment ... I just chose a honeycomb pattern from the website Shabby Blogs which has free templates :)
