Rewind Visits: Hermes – Festival de Metiers comes to London

Rewind — Fri, 24 May 2013 11:09:41 +0000

Yesterday we took a trip to the Saatchi gallery to visit Festival de Metiers, a free exhibition where Hermes have given the public an opportunity to marvel at their incredible craftsmanship.

While wandering around the exhibition we were able to observe the process of each craft first hand. The exhibition encourages you to interact and engage with the artisans, who are more than willing to reveal their expertise in crafting the world’s finest luxury goods.

We highly recommend a visit to this exhibition.It is truly a rare opportunity to witness close up the craftsmanship of the world’s most luxurious label.

Fact: The average production time for a Hermes Birkin bag ranges from 18 hours for a 25 cm to up 30 hours for a 40 cm.

Fact: Taking 18 hours to create, the Kelly bag is the most complex bag Hermes makes.

The Great Gatsby

Rewind — Wed, 15 May 2013 16:27:46 +0000

The Great Gatsby finally hits UK cinemas tomorrow and we could not be more excited. The highly anticipated film, directed by Baz Luhrmann, puts a contemporary twist on F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic tale. The genius behind Romeo + Juliet and Moulin Rouge, Luhrmann’s extravagant, theatrical style transports the story of Jay Gatsby and Daisy Buchanan (starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan) into a colourful world of extravagance, glamour and epic parties.

Although for us, the part that we are most exited about has to be the decision to have Miuccia Prada design the 1920′s vintage costumes.

Or perhaps the jewellery by Tiffany.

Or just Leo in this white suit…

For whatever reason, we are sure that this release will inspire a new love for the glamour and excitement of the 1920s.

Paris Fashion Week Photo Diary

Rewind — Mon, 11 Mar 2013 14:27:41 +0000

Rewind hit up Paris for the last few days of Fashion week to explore the city and look for some inspiration . Amongst our shop stops on day 1 were Chanel (of course), Colette, Marcona 3, Chezel and Celine. Fuelled with the finest French pastry we made it our mission to visit every shop on our Paris wish list. On Day 2 we explored the fabulous St-Ouen Flea Market and then made one last minute stop at the Chloe show, before hopping on the Eurostar back to London. Let’s not forget dinner at Chez Paul, which honestly deserves it’s own dedicated blog post.

We can whole heartedly confirm that they served the best Crème Brulee in town!
