RARE Inspired by Loewe

Hello Dear Readers,
Today I'm going to talk about a singular item: RARE Inspired by Loewe.

Maybe not everyone could appreciate its peculiarity. It's difficult to combine it in an outfit, has got a bright turquoise colour and strange lenght.
It's a pair of high-heeled boots with a sort of belt on the top.
RARE Inspired by Loewe was realeased on Fudge shop (a shop that suddenly doesn't exist anymore) and its current value is Starcoins. In the past you could find it in Starbazaar for 500/600 Starcoins like me, today it's obviously a little bit more difficult, but if you like it keep searching!

You can find this RARE in the Dress Up doll Katarina Witt, figure skater and two times Olympic Gold medalist for Germany ( Katarina Witt Dress Up Doll ).
The Dress Up doll has also the complete outfit from the Loewe Fall Winter 2007/08 Fashion Show.

What do you think?
Do you think you have skills to make a good outfit by using these strange boots?
If you'd like to test yourself and try a new chellange, visit my doll ( La_RuGBiSTa Suite ) and make an outfit with these boots, the most I like will be publish here with credits!

RARE dragon dress

Not everyone loves old graphic clothes. They are unrealistic, sometimes don't fit good on dolls, have sharp shapes, not great color changing, bad shadows and are too much basic.

Fortunately Stardoll has released also RAREs with new graphic, more realistic and fashionable.
Today we'll talk about RARE dragon dress.

You can find it in the Dress Up doll Katarina Witt, figure skater and two times Olympic Gold medalist for Germany  ( http://www.stardoll.com/en/dolls/746/Katarina_Witt.html?dsearch ).

This RARE is not very wanted. If you see it in a superficial way it doesn't seem to have noteworthy pecularity, nothing able to make you exlaim "WOW! I WANT IT IN MY CLOSET!"















But I invite you to watch it in depth, more closely.

What do you think now? There is more interesting cues than before?
Watch the large, high belt on the waist, the two vertical sewings and the draped skirt. Focus your attention on the fantastic black drawing. Personally, I think is really well done. The "Dragon" that gives the name to this RARE is actually a beautiful female demon, with a long-limbed naked body, a pair of horns and a big bat wing. I suggest you to open the photo and you'll appreciate more this fantastic work Stardoll done.

Stardoll released this RARE for the first time  in the shop RIO. Why have I wrote for the first time? Because Stardoll inexplicably decided to release it again on February 2012 in the shop Archive, something like the actual Callie's Picks. Maybe this is one of the reasons RARE dragon dress is less wanted than other RAREs.
In Archive was released for a little price: only 7 Stardollars. This is maybe another reason this RARE is considered as a second category RARE. Almost everyone, Superstar and not, had bought it and his value poured down in a short time.

What about the real dress? Stardoll took inspiration from the Balmain Fall Winter 2007/08 Fashion Show.
In general the Stardoll version is similar to the real one: same lenght (a mini dress), same three-quarter sleeves, same high belt and round collar. But what about our highlight, the dragon? Stardoll dragon is drawing, the real dragon is a sequin silver dragon, not extraordinary, in my opinion.






But I've not done for today
I've found an other interesting photo about Balmain dragon dress, from another angulation.







You can see the famous and loved Italian journalist Anna Dello Russo, creative consultant and editor-at-large for VOGUE Japan worn the dress during a party. The dress has a beautiful open back and a zip.
Tell the truth to yourself, you have dreamt to know how Stardoll clothes fit back at least once in your life, haven't you?













So we have done for today, I hope to have contributed to revalue this RARE because is really interesting, the only fault is attributable to Stardoll and their questionable choices.

See you!
