Menthol Couture, frozen feet and sleepless nights

Alison Nix @ Women (Milan), Women (NY), Women (Paris)

Tomorrow is art fair day here. Vernissage at 6pm then the talk of the town for four more days. Thinking about buying some menthol cigarettes, they'll be related to that time of the year forever. Good memories from two years ago, after a sleepless night working on the blog at its very beginnings. Menthol smoke will also reminds us of that evening of january. Paris. Armani Privé show. Frozen feet. Was only a few months since we met Alison for the first time. Was only a few months after that Louise-Brooks-me-if-you-can-hair-trend era reached its climax. Was the exact moment we really started thinking of her as one of our perennial favorites. Beyond the bob. Things went by and every single picture of her remains precious. Loved her spread by Mel Karch earlier this year. Love Mel's work in general, love Alison whatever she does and the atmosphere of the story seemed made for her. Last time we had the chance to meet with Alison was in july. Couture fashion week again. Elie Saab. Backstage. Hope there will be a new opportunity soon. Stylish from head to toe, everytime and everywhere. Couture dresses are quickly forgotten, couture make-up is quickly forgiven. Alison's style is forever. Unforgettable. Like the taste of menthols. Too bad the package is empty. Merde.
