Salon for elite few

Da Vinci salon presents a new jewelry collection from Adler

Konstantine Dudoladov is not only a gifted designer but also a perfect stylist. He knows how to please his guests, he can hardly ever call someone a clients. In ancient times we would call him by a French word coiffeur and all the nobles would come and ask for his attention. Now we call him a Stylist, but nobles and celebrities wouldn’t even notice the difference. He is always busy and wanted, because he knows what you need and want. Hairdressing, make up, manicure, pedicure, massage, sun booth, showroom and atelier services in a pleasant, friendly atmosphere and become one of the few.

Where to find:

Khazana opens in Moscow trendy area!

A British approach to your wardrobe

This month marks Khazana’s third anniversary and what better way to celebrate that than with a new store. Anju Shahani, Khazana’s founder, and her husband Dinesh Shahani, have more in common than being just married to one another; both are in the apparel business. While Anju has Khazana, Dinesh is the Founder/CEO of Hong Kong-based 100+ store Sprandi brand. Khazana’s collection includes haute couture, eclectic womenswear, jewelry, and accessories. Originally, the Khazana collection was Indian-designed and manufactured but her recent collections have been extended to global fashion trends including those from France and Italy. The new Khazana store is now situated at the very fashionable Petrovka 30/7 building conveniently located a stone’s throw from Bar 30/7, Galleria and the La Maree restaurants. As one of the coolest night spot zones in downtown Moscow, Khazana’s collection fits right in, and is surely worth a visit!

Mariomi

Mariomi brand is a new and mysterious approach to industrial fashion; combining the idea of being an individual in a crowd with the idea of having a universe inside. Marina Shulyatyeva created the Autumn/Winter 2007/08 collection called Insul.In. A remarkable feature of Mariomi style is to let the person wearing the clothes feel attractive and express the energy hidden in the deepest corner of their urban soul. Insul is a Latin word for island, In is the prefix showing the direction. With putting them together, Marina Shulyatyeva shows us that while we all live in a flood of information and technology, what we need is just to seek deep within and find that Island.

This collection is made of warm, high-tech materials, but it gives a reflection of 1914, just to remind us of a time when modern history began and that we have so many chances to start our personal history with a beautiful and exquisite style.
