Last night Rose and I had a soirée at the Auberge du Jeu de Paume, the brand new hotel at 10 minutes from our place, in Chantilly. The promise of champagne and a chocolate fountain immediately convinced Rose to join me. I was very curious to see what the concept of a "personal dressing" by Chambre avec Vue was all about.
After Venice and Saint Tropez, Mélissa and Taya, founders of Chambre avec Vue, decided to show a feminine & elegant collection of prêt-à-porter de luxe in Chantilly. I liked the upcycled pieces of Semi Couture but the best part was the glow of one of the models: a woman, probably in her 30s like me: so confident and powerful. The younger models were pretty and cute, but she lit up the room and made everyone smile. So cliché, but beauty isn't about looks :o)
Have a wonderful weekend!
Oh die chocoladefontein zou er ook voor zorgen dat ik om was en mee ging :)!
Bij de volgende chocolade fontein geef ik je een seintje vantevoren ;o) Fijn weekend, Stephanie!
Sounds like a fab night out! And I love the idea of upcycled fashion. This is probably the first time I've ever seen it look so chic. The colours are glorious and making me long for warmer weather.
You're so right about the concept of beauty – it's the inner one that truly counts …… and lasts! :D
Have a great weekend. x
I was told that to create the upcycled pieces they used couture dresses and turned them into new creations. Which means incredible fabrics and colors :o) I hope the warmer weather will come soon! Enjoy your sunday, Chi!
