Dress well without spending too much words by Karl

Dress well without spending too much it is what the majority of us continues to repeat ourselves; It is also one of the reasons why we daily thank Amancio Ortega (Zara), Erling Persson (H & M) and Ingvar Kamprad (IKEA) – although the latter only helps us to furnish well our house. When to say that “I never thought to dress well means obligatory to spend so much [..]. Inexpensive does not mean cheap, a word I do not like […] is Karl, yes Mr. Karl Lagerfeld at Fendi’s backstage to Matteo Persivale from Corriere della Sera, that statement sounds much more authoritative and free of that famous “I wish, but I can’t“, because it is useless to specify it, but the German designer can indeed.

Dress well without spending too much is an intellectual issue

It’s useless to avoid falling in love with prints by Rochas, impalpable layers of Alberta Ferretti, sorbet colors by Giambattista Valli, layers of lace and bright Dolce & Gabbana‘s embroidereies. It is easier because sewn to the wearer, with a dusting of pale powder, white ever perfect light and the music that enters your heart breaking the  emotions.

The reality is different, explains Karl to the incredulous interviewer from Corriere: “Who misses the elegance of the past does not consider that there were no products of this type, with good quality for less […] there will always be luxury but it is another thing.

“And so I remember well the words of a jeweled spectator at Curiel‘s fashion show in Rome who said: “Today it is easier to dress well, you can simply find a cute white blouse and a black blazer ” indicating her vintage  silk shirt with ruffles, the taielleur perhaps by Yves and the fur abandoned somewhere.

It’s a matter of style to dress well without spending too much

If you can get over that moment when the desire to wear – cherry blossoms print on a pink background by Gucci, the small flowers by Valentino and red roses by Dolce & Gabbana – is stronger than centuries of History of Fashion, then you can start working on something else. The mix and match made of stripes, the color blocks, the natural fabrics, colors and unexpected silhouettes able to exalt and never annihilate us.

The gods are completely human, differing from men only because they are immortal and possess superhuman powers.

In this case the superhuman powers are expensive clothes for few. And if you are like me and you can’t resist temptation, you will find this  suit blatantly inspired by the Sicilian woman Dolce & Gabbana available at Zara, irresistible.
