RARE Jacket and RARE Inspired by Demeulemeester

In these days I'm really productive in writing articles, so today I want to post another RARE story!

In this post you'll find information about two differentr RARE, like the one posted yesterday.
The two RAREs I'll introduce you haven't got the same name label but have to be presented together because part of the same catwalk outfit.

RARE Jacket 

Basic but chic, classic and versatile, RARE Jacket is perfect for every occasion. Black&White are the only color used. White is the main color of this long sleeves jacket, black is used for collar, sleeve lapels and buttons. I'm particularly in love with the collar that is not entirely black but B&W patterns are alternate and have different thickness.

RARE Inspired by Demeulemeester

This RARE is a really eccentric top. The upper part reminds oriental clothes, in particular Mandarin collar traditional Chinese dresses, for its collar and slevees. The upperside is irregular and asymmetrical, with the right part longer than the left. The main color is white. Black is used for board and sewing and for buttons.

I reaaly like the originality used to create this top.

RARE Jacket and RARE Inspired by Demeulemeester were released from the shop Fallen Angel and their current currency is Starcoins.

You can find RARE Jacket and RARE Inspired by Demeulemeester in the Dress Up Doll Amy Lee 3

(Amy Lee3).

The real inspiration is an outfit from the Demeulemeester Fall/Winter 2007/2008 collection. 

RARE Inspired by Balenciaga

Hello dear readers,
Today I'll show you not one but TWO RAREs in only one topic!

These two RAREs are both called RARE Inspired by Balenciaga.

The first RARE Inspired by Balenciaga is a collared blouse with short sleeves with 80s shoulder pads  and it appears very rigid if you look at the chest. The second RARE Inspired by Balenciaga is a mini-skirt. These two RAREs have the same pattern and color. The pattern is oblique checker with alternately colored squares: white, pink and fuchsia. There are also magenta buttons, two lines in the center of the skirt and one line on the top of the sleeves.

RARE Inspired by Balenciaga blouse was released in the shop Pretty n' Pink (now Pretty n' Love) and its current currency is Stardollars.

RARE Inspired by Balenciaga skirt was released from the shop Pretty n' Pink and its currency is Starcoins.

You can find the two RAREs in the Dress Up doll Harlequin (Harlequin).

Stardoll took inspiration from the Balenciaga Spring Summer 2008 collection. Stardoll has left some details like pockets and wrinkles, but also the sheen texture.

Rare Gucci inspired Bag

Stardoll has created also some RARE clothes and accesories for boys and men.
One of these items is called Rare Gucci inspired Bag.

This amazing bag is called Shopper Bag. Its main color is black, probabily in leather texture. It has got gold details like clasps, studs and rings, and also silver details along the seams.

Personally, I love everything about this bag. The bag is full of details which are really well made: light and dark technique is used to fill the bag, the way used to design the studs gives three-dimensionality.

Rare Gucci inspired Bag was released from the men shop Fallen Angel Boys and its currency is Starcoins, for these two reasons this bag is really hard to find even in the oldest Stardoll accounts.

I wasn't been able to find a Dress Up doll with this Rare.

A particularity: this is one of the few Rares called "Rare" and not with capital letters "RARE".







After a hard research, my hunt has completed! I've found the real inspiration of this men masterpiece.
Stardoll has took inspiration from the Gucci Fall 2008 Menswear.

Honestly I love this bag so much and even if my doll is a female, often I use this piece to create my outfits!
What do you think? Do you like this bag? Let me know!

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 Necklace as in Anna Sui

RAREs are not only clothes. They can be also accessories.
RAREs are not only in suites. They can be also in Beauty Parlor.

Not everyone knows it, but as I have luckily discovered years and years ago, you can find RAREs also in Beauty Parlor.
These RAREs are more hidden and consequently hardest to find.
I write in the plural but I must be honest with you: at the moment I know only one RARE item you can find in Beauty Parlor (and I'm really happy to say I own it!).
I'm talking about RARE Necklace as in Anna Sui (I know, it's an ugly name, but is Stardoll fault!).

The photos are really ugly, forgive me.
As you can see is a feathers necklace. Black pearls on the neck, the white things are something like hooks used to hook (sorry but it's difficult to explain!) the blue, light blue, pink and two different brown with different lenght feathers that are used to create an ethnic necklace.




The feathers give to the necklace a lot of volume and they shroud completely the neck.
The feathers are not really well made and you can see not a great job is done on the white supports.
I think it's an old piece and I can't find a Dress Up doll with this item.








An other interesting thing is that doesn't appear the Shop on the label, so we can hypothesise it was realeased in a Shop that is not in Starplaza anymore.
The current value is Starcoins and this is the reason is difficult to find in Starbazaar.







You can use it as a necklace (but be careful with your chin, the RARE could cover it!)

But also as a bracelet

What about the real life version? I think Stardoll hadn't took inspiration from a particular Anna Sui Fashion Show. I've checked every Collection from 2000 to 2010 and I haven't found something that completely match our RARE.
But I can hypothesise, again.

Anna Sui has proposed various ethnic collections, expecially with Indian American inspirations.
I suggest you to take a look to the Anna Sui Spring Summer 2005 Collection, published by Vogue ( https://www.vogue.com/fashion-shows/spring-2005-ready-to-wear/anna-sui/slideshow/collection ). Maybe Stardoll took inspiration from this collection. What do you think?
I'll show you some details that have convinced me, expecially the first one.

TWIGGY SECTION: 1st Episode, RARE Inspired by See by Chloé (Jacket)

Welcome guys, second article is here for you!
I'm very excited because today I want to introduce you the masterpiece of this blog restyling: the TWIGGY SECTION.

I consider myself one of the greatest fan and Twiggy addicted in Stardoll. I am the proud owner of all the fantastic clothes released in Starplaza you can find in the Twiggy Dress Up ( http://www.stardoll.com/en/dolls/723/Twiggy.html?dsearch ).
Maybe not everyone knows also that the Dress Up doll Twiggy is the greates source of RAREs. Five clothes in Twiggy's dress up are RAREs. So I've decided to talk about them inside of this particular section, which will be proposed again in other articles I'll post soon in the future weeks.

I would like to start from one of my favourite RARE of all time: RARE Inspired by See by Chloé (Jacket).

It is a cream elegant jacket, with three-quarter slaves, three golden buttons on the top and a nice neck.
It's an old graphic RARE, maybe dated 2007; it is interesting the way they tried to draw realistic shadows (I remember you that in old graphic clothes usually you don't see such a great work on shadows, always too dark or even absent).
It is a really versatile piece and I personally like the fact is open and not buttoned up, in that way you can see there is something under the jacket and the outfit would be fuller.
RARE Inspired by See by Chloé is today marked as a Pretty n' Love item, but as the oldest users know, the original name of this shop was Pretty n' Pink. The current value is Starcoins, for this reason is really hard to find it in Starbazaar and is very wanted.

What about the real jacket?
This time Stardoll has semplified my work because the name suggest you can find the real life inspiration jacket in one of the past See by Chloé Fashion Shows.
In particular they probably have fallen in love for the Fall/Winter 2007/2008 collection. I'm pretty sure they lose their mind for this collection because a lot of clothes in the Twiggy Dress Up (RARE and not) are from it.
Here I show a comparison between how it fit on a doll and in real life.
I think they have done a great work on it, the two coats are really similar.
As you can see the French fashion house suggest to use a two-colored shirt with a round collar so retrò, shorts, thighs and ballerinas. As I said before, I think you could make a lot of different combination, this jacket is really versatile and you can use it to create different kind of styles.

Hope you will enjoy this new Twiggy Section in the future weeks, and tell me if you would like to know more also about not RAREs Twiggy clothes.
See you!
