FROM ingenious cufflinks to fashionable zebra stripe sunglasses to impressively creative watches and watchbands, summertime has brought a fun and useful set of accessories for both men and women.
Luvon by Liu Lu
The designs in this spring/summer collection are based on nude colors. Designer Liu Lu makes supple use of laces and chiffon - gentle colors mix with soft textures to fully bring out the beauty in the modern urban woman.
Louis Vuitton
Originally designed back in 1932 to carry champagne bottles, the Noe Bag is a perfect city bag that has been redesigned and has been available in different materials. This summer, Louis Vuitton Noe BB Bag is a great addition to this elegant collection, which is available in Epi leather and Monogram canvas.
Peace of Art
Peace of Art is created by Swatch to encourage people to visit The Swatch Art Peace Hotel on the Bund and its thriving hive of creativity. This painterly New Gent juxtaposes architectural line drawings depicting the restored hotel. Hotel guests will be offered the Peace of Art in colorful special packaging containing a dark blue passport, also available at the Swatch boutique.
Hogan
For a second season, Love magazine editor and stylist Katie Grand has collaborated with Hogan to produce a special collection. The aesthetic of the sunglasses is bright and bold. The signature heart motif is still there, a nod to Love magazine. Plus, they've gone big on zebra stripe.
Bally
Carry a casual travel bag for your summer vacation with a subtle kind of luxury. Bally launches the Strip Collection of casual travel bags for men. Each one is made of soft yet extraordinarily robust calf leather in an intense shade of chestnut.
Patek Philippe
For decades, Patek Philippe Calatrava, the prototype of the classic round wristwatch, has ranked among the most iconic creations of the watchmaker. The new Calatrava Ref 5227 released from Baselworld 2013 features a display back protected with a separate dust cover. The entire hinge is on the inside of the cover, making it invisible. It is available in 18-karat yellow, white or rose (5N) gold.
Richard Mille
Richard Mille has taken on the challenge of transforming cufflinks, the natural complement to his watches. Made from grade 5 titanium, they inaugurate a patented mechanism that opens the bars using a push-piece.
Rolex
A new version of the Rolex Oyster Perpetual GMT-Master II in 904L steel, with a rotatable bezel, features for the first time a two-color ceramic Cerachrom bezel insert in blue and black.
Louis Vuitton 'Traveling Curiosities'
Shanghai Pudong IFC plays host until July 28 to a delightful and intriguing exhibition of unusual sculptures and visual artworks with a child-like innocence created solely from Louis Vuitton's small leather goods. The brand had British artist Billie Achilleos create 20 animals using different small leather goods to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Louis Vuitton Small Leather Goods in 2010.
Estee Lauder
Estee Lauder recently launched Vivid Shine - the latest wave of shades that dazzle eyes, lips and nails with sparkling shine and chromatic color. It is a collection of bold shades for women who want to indulge their love of color. This new makeup collection made its debut at the Design Republic Design Commune on Jiangning Road. Stunning artistic pictures were displayed from collaboration between the brand and Tokyo-based Chinese photographer Qu Yi.
Paule Ka
Paule Ka, a label established by Serge Cajfinger in Paris in 1987, presented its fall/winter collection last week in town. This time, Cajfinger imagined a wardrobe like a sheet of music, where each piece accompanies the other. The silhouette remains structured; the structure remains rigorous but the fantasy asserts itself. Skirts, coats, dresses allow the legs to be seen; juxtapositions of materials play upon contrasts; the masculinity of a metal buckle upon the suppleness of wool jersey, the extravagant floral print on the sobriety of a little black dress.
