Fashion Hack @ Colette, Paris.
A Window Exhibition, May 2017

To celebrate her upcoming guide, "Silicon Valley, A Fashion Field Trip Guide", Carole Sabas curated a fashion tech window for the Colette, Paris, at the invitation of Sarah Andelman. She scouted 10 tech startups, and teamed them up with 10 fashion/beauty designers. The brief: co-create 10 smart fashion accessories in less than 30 days. The final objects, exhibited in the "Fashion Hack" window @Colette aimed to question the current data-collecting, fashion-adversed, industrial-designed wearables.

These calendars were magnificently illustrated by Caroline Andrieu with couture silhouettes from the in-season.

Los Angeles Fashion Friendly Guide x Oliver People, 2013

Looking for rainbow mirror shades for our cover, we turned to our Oliver Peoples friends. It lead to a very special edition of their historic Braverman shades, for a luxurious "Los Angeles Fashion Friendly Guide x Oliver People Gift Box". An instant hit, that — we like to think— sparkled the 2015 trend of rainbow lenses.

American eyewear brand Oliver Peoples celebrates the publication of new book, Los Angeles Fashion Friendly Guide with an exclusive box set complete with a pair of multicolored mirrored glasses.
To mark the release of Los Angeles: The Fashion Friendly Guide, Oliver Peoples has created a pair of rainbow colored glasses in collaboration with Carole Sabas, Vogue Paris' New York correspondent and author of the guidebook. Inspired by the book's cover, designed by Caroline Andrieu, and model Diane Rosser's off-duty style, the glasses are a customized version of Oliver Peoples' unisex Braverman design, itself a cult classic for its effortless Californian style with multicolored mirrored lenses, modernized with metallic details at the temple. On sale with a guide which reveals the best kept secret fashion addresses of the City of Angels, where Oliver Peoples was founded in 1987, the glasses come in an exclusive case and will be available from October 11 at Marc LeBihan.



The Miami Fashion Friendly Guide x The Webster x Foundation Dennis Hopper, Dec 2013

The Brooklyn Fashion Friendly Guide x Vogue Paris x Colette, 2012

While investigating for our Brooklyn Guide, we found dozens of "made at home", mind-blowing emerging brands. We introduced a selection of them to French Vogue, and curated for the magazine a "Brooklyn Beauty" selection @ Colette. First time that — now ubiquitous — D.S. & Durga and S.W. landed in Paris! https://intothegloss.com/2012/08/paris-brooklyn-colette-brooklyn-beauty/
