Christian Lacroix | “Qui a le Droit?” Wedding Dress | 1993⠀ ———⠀ In the early 90s, bridal wear accounted for 40% of the orders from Lacroix’s fashion house. He named this piece “Qui a le Droit?”,(“Who has the right?”). Perhaps reference to modern brides and their affinity towards simple, white gowns that represented outdated notions of purity and chastity?⠀ ⠀ (@vamuseum museum no.

The Voyage Travel Journal features a flocked hardbound cover and 96 ruled ivory pages. A book with multiple uses: travel journal, diary and journal. Cover engraving with the Roman ruins of Arles celebrates six great cities: Paris, Madrid, London, Tokyo, Arles, and New York with each city name in gold or silver hot stamp. Four end papers with ornate world maps. Decorative stickers evoke the character of each city. Paper engineering and pop-up technology bring each city to life: Arles, London, Madrid, Paris, New York and Tokyo. Black and white striped chevron ribbon marker. Gilded page edges.
Paris features a pop-up Notre Dame and a floating balloon.
Madrid displays flamenco dancers on a swing.
London has a pin-up Queen Victoria & Prince Albert changes his trousers.
Arles features a beautiful pop-up rose and theatrical vignettes.
New York has two views of the old city.
Tokyo has removable stickers of a geisha, crane and ‘TOKYO’.
There are also further stickers included at the back for you to decorate pages as you wish. With a beautifully illustrated front and back hardcover, and old world map on the inside covers this journal really is stunning to behold. As extravagant & opulent as the designer himself this book also features gilded page edges and a black & white chevron stripe place keeping ribbon, perfect for use as a travel book, journal or notebook.

“Power is life to our kind. Those without power disintegrate into the nights of the past – hundreds of names I know once instilled fear, now unknown. You see it’s not enough to attain power – one must also maintain power.”
