meet the King of fur fashion with a nose of perfumev
I've always thought, but the idea of living in a hotel. While other properties with multiple rooms, the idea of living in a single application, many more obsessed. Room Service, Towels, Do Not Disturb sign on the door and a flood of new neighbors have the Headquarters Agreement perfect - especially if the room is Claridges.
The magnificent five star hotel in Brook Street is the "home away from home" for connoisseurs of style during London Fashion Week, Diane von Furstenberg, and even decorated its 20 suites. Although I had it a few times they have been all the more memorable, I met Tom Ford at the bar when he was artistic director of Gucci and more Anna Wintour of Vogue stimulation of the lobby of his trench coat brand.
It was time, Wintour, who jumped to mind last week when I went back to the hotel to meet American designer Dennis Basso.
Fur Fashion famous king, the clothes were all from the high society of the Upper East Side of hip-hop in the city to launch its first fragrance.Interestingly for me, he also dressed Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada its role inspiration Wintour . Spotting a good coat on the film, and you can be sure that this is a Basso, draped either the full length white fox on Catherine Zeta-Jones and Renee Zellweger in Chicago or the elegant fur skin by Charlize Theron modeled in Snow White and the Huntsman.
One day he will stage an exhibition of his skin made for photos, but this time it comes to fragrance. The eponymous fragrance equipped Basso said that "comes in a bottle that looks like jewelry" is pretty great and has top notes of bergamot, lemon and green apple, a heart of orange blossom and a base of cashmere wood.
"It was the right time to launch it," added Basso, who has dignity, is a big bear of a man with a deep voice frying. "It took a year of tests, odor, add and remove to make this possible and to create a scent that lingers without over-eating." Among those who are currently being sprayed Dennis Basso Joan Rivers, a close friend and a great lover of fur.
"I have a lot of Passover with Joan," says DB who say that without the love of the American Jewish woman of fashion goes, "I would stand on a street corner with a paper cup."
He has certainly come a long way from the sale of furs in the trunk of a rented car. But with fame comes Peta fur protesters, but there are a lot of wrong for those who have a conscience or less. Basso are designing garments that are so spectacular, I'm embarrassed to say that I did when I saw her, cried. Now exclusively at Harrods, I mentally circled the clothes that I want, so in the unlikely event that I'm rich, I'm going to order capable phone in my room at Claridge's. Until then, an injection od Dennis Basso will suffice.
