Willy Daro is a Belgian designer. No more info to be found on the web about him, except for his work: Made in the seventies of the previous century, on sale at various auctions, vintage and design web-shops. Guess we’ll head on to the library to find more info in some books……

A glimpse at the life of Priscilla Presley, photographed by fans (they seem too candid to be taken by paparazzi but maybe we’re wrong) while she was behind the steering wheel of her car. The collection above must be the tip of a very high mountain of photographs. And how many times did Ms Presley must have her signed her autograph? Must be a mountain of paper as well! Priscilla Presley is still photographed in her car. We found one image made in 2014 (on zimbio), there are probably more images but we like the old ones better, she looks happier in them.

Designed by Modernist architect John Lautner in the late seventies.
It seems like this “house” is built for entertaining, The Hope couple could invite up to 500 people, and they did. Last week, May 6th 2015, Louis Vuitton also invited a couple of hundred buyers and journalists to this venue for the Louis Vuitton Resort 2016 Fashion Show. We, at Mimi Berlin wished we were there. We never had such urgent wishes to attend fashion shows before, but lately the venues are SO extravagant and SO out of this world….! Last season we were fascinated with the Chanel Resort show in Dubai. And today we read the following on style.com;
“The Resort season has turned into a mini architecture tour. Karl Lagerfeld set up Chanel operations at Zaha Hadid’s Dongdaemun Design Plaza in Seoul on Monday. Raf Simons will show Dior at Pierre Cardin’s south of France home next week. And today Louis Vuitton had over 800 rooms booked in Palm Springs, California, for the celebrities, international journalists, and clients that assembled here to witness Nicolas Ghesquière’s latest LV collection at the Bob Hope estate.” –on style.com.
Yes, yes and yes we would like to attend all shows! The one more decadent and glamorous than the other show. Imagine having a drink on custom made perspex seats in the middle of the desert of California in an over the top concrete UFO like building! Pfff……..And to top that off; watching A-List models pass you by, wearing clothes designed by Nicolas Ghesquière….. Unreal! But it seems to be normal in the fashion industry nowadays. We’ll keep on following the normal fashion life on instagram’s happy few. And you can follow our daily life on instagram as well, if you like; @mm_brln

Lui Magazine, a magazine for men, adult men, had some wonderful covers in the seventes! Lui was created in 1963 by Daniel Filipacchi, a fashion photographer turned publisher, Jacques Lanzmann, a jack of all trades turned novelist, and Frank Ténot, a press agent, pataphysician and jazz critic. The objective was to bring some charm “à la française” to the market of men’s magazines, following the success of Playboy in the USA, launched just a decade before.
