True artists are the ones that carve their own totally different, totally awesome place in music. 2014 brought us some kickass new tunes, with females like Lorde, Lana Del Rey, and Charli XCX dominating the pop circuit and new artists like Halsey, Børns, and Cold Fronts. As for next year...

FIVE BANDS THAT ARE GOING TO RULE YOUR 2015

It’s easy to spot Dubai’s growing urban culture — from pick-up basketball games ..

to live music to footwear that would make a sneakerhead drool — and we found it during a recent festival held at the construction site of the Dubai Design District. Drawn together by Sole DXB to celebrate all things street, including the transformation by Singaporean punk-inspired skate artists SBTG of fresh pairs of the Air Jordan 1 into customized wearable art pieces, the city’s youthful fashion ranks got the scoop on unique smaller brands while showing off their own sense of street-sport style.

DUBAI STREET STYLE

The 2014 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, you could expect there to be, oh, just a little bit of a frenzy happening backstage. Candice Swanepoel needed eye drops; Joan Smalls needed water; Lily Aldridge needed the ladies’ room. Through the scrum of photographers and press, you could see Doutzen Kroes sneak off with a salad, while her fellow Angels took turns spray-painting a mural devoted to London. The makeup tables were covered with backup hair extensions in every hue, plates of picked-at fruit, and jars of Charlotte Tilbury Magic Cream. The models themselves donned pink slip robes, and managed to smile—or at least selfie—through it all.

Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2014

Estilo único y esencialmente parisino llega a los escritorios de todo el globo de la mano de How to be parisian, un libro que Caroline ha escrito junto a las también francesas e iconoclastas Anne Berest, Audrey Diwan y Sophie Mas a través de los mitos y leyendas del carácter parisienne.

Sin duda este es un libro que en lo personal esta lleno de expectativas que hasta ahora ha cumplido, lo he empezado a leer y estoy mas que enamorada de el , la ensencia que exhala con solo leerlo te hace encarnar el toque chic parisino y ese Je ne sais Quoi que distingue a las francesas del resto de la multitud.

lo recomiendo rotundamente ... How To be parisian ya se ha vuelto mas que un libro una religion para mi.

desafortunadamente el Libro aun no llega a mexico pero puedes obtenerlo en AMAZON , howtobeparisianbook.com o en iBooks .

HERE'S THE EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW FOR #THEFASHIONCODE

Why did you choose the world of foot wear? We're there any family influence ?

I think it really startedwhen I was young – I used to be a real tomboy and hated wearing shoes at all. My equestrian boots really changed my mind – they were the first pair of shoes I fell in love with and now shoes are everything!

PAMELA COSTANTINI when was born?

Pamela Costantini was born in 2014. The SS 2015 is our first collection , we are very excited and hope our future collection will have the same positive response of this one.

What it inspires your collections ?

I'm very inspired by the 90s grunge aesthetic - there is a nonchalance about it that always manages to look super cool. Also Helmut Newton photography - the feeling he is able to evoke

through composition, color and subject. His images are really strong and instantly recognizable as his own - it's that sort of feeling I hope to evoke with my collection. The collection combines all

these elements in an elegant way. I'd have to say the Thorn Sandal in Persico Fish Leather is my favorite style - it definitely encapsulates all of my influences perfectly."

What kind of woman wear your shoes?

"She's strong with limitless confidence. I think that is really the best accessory for a woman - self conviction really changes how you approach your life and others regard you."

Where can you find your collections ? Do you think export?

We had orders from a boutiques in Mexico City too; we are very pleased to have stores in latin America as my mother is Ecuatorian.

Quick questions

If you weren't a designer shoes, what you think you would be?

OMG, I know it sounds odd but I would be an ethologist.

A shoe should not be lower or higher than that...

Higher tah 11 cm …we need to walk too : )

Spiked heel or round?

Spiked heel

If you had to wear a pair of shoe s that weren't yours , of which firm would they be ?

Tom Ford

If you could de s ign a pair of s hoe s for any ce le brity, current or past, who would be ?

Rihanna
