Luxirare

She is one of a kind.
She is a true talented person.
She designs ass kicking clothing and makes amazingly fine cuisine

She is LUXIRARE

She said: Fashion isn't just about clothing oneself. Its a dream, an escape, a fantasy.. 

The clothes on the rolling racks are all made by her except for the fur coat which is a vintage piece. Her inspiration was from the 70's Jackson 5 (subconsciously, she said..)... how hot are those shorts w/ the vintage coat??






She said: Eating shouldn't just be about eating. Its about mystery, surprise, and delight. 

Look at these little Lolipop-Pie! Grab and go, little sweet treat for yourself without having to feel guilty about. and how pretty is that avocado and crab meat salad??? The way she presents the food and the step by step tutorial just made me want to cry. How great would it be if all cook books were like this?

REWORKED COUTURE VINTAGE...RSVP NOW!

Some might say that it is best to keep a vintage piece at its original form, others found it better to rework the vintage piece a little bit to fit into the current fashion moment or make it ultra special and unique. RSVP is obviously the master in the latter mentioned. They do no regular rework (i.e. take up the hem, chop off the sleeves.. etc), what they do is at couture level - taking the best parts of different vintage pieces and put them back together in one piece... like a beaded amulet from a 1920 gown sewn onto a 1970 mesh fabric...or vintage lace from 1910's and 1920's attached to a 1930's gown... Here is a collection from RSVP specially designed for Shrimpton Couture. Gorgeous gorgeous pieces.
