#DIANECAN --- Milan Fashion Week, Salvatore Ferragamo F/W 2015



   
Since I am currently studying fashion design in Italy, I decided to take a train trip to Milan's Fall/Winter Fashion Week. On Sunday I was at the Salvatore Ferragamo's Women's Ready-to-Wear show at the Piazza Affari. The collection consisted of heavy knits, tanned leathers, large buttons and geometrical stacked heels.  Some reviews say that the Women's F/W 2015 collection created some curiousity among critics but the collection directly reflected the "Geometry & Rhythm" the designers were going for.

                                             
Some of the street style sparked paparazzi as well, even taking the shine away from Anna Wintour as she exited and entered the venue in a brown patched leather trench.

New Office Space

The new office is in downtown Louisville! 
Although the exterior of the building definitely looks like it is 
right out of the French quarter in New Orleans! 
We are excited to have a river view and be in the heart of the action in Louisville. 

Since we have a mobile boutique the office will mostly be used for the 
operations and creative work space for us. 
We hope to lead the business to great successes inside these walls!
