Emilio Pucci Fall 2012

fashionologie — Sat, 25 Feb 2012 11:43:33 PST

>> In a departure from Spring's swirling prints and bohemian mood, Peter Dundas went dark and slick for Fall 2012 Emilio Pucci. "Exotic black. Sober but slashed," the show notes explained, and sure enough there were crocodile skins and velvet devourés (exotic), close-cut sheaths and tuxedo jackets (sober), and plenty of sheer cutouts and thigh-revealing slits (slashed). It was an offering that felt fresh, assured, and - ultimately - sexy.

fashionologie — Mon, 23 May 2011 15:15:42 PDT

>> This year's Cannes Film Festival came to a close yesterday; French though it may be, aside from Chanel, it was the Italian brands who reigned supreme amongst this red carpet bunch: Giorgio Armani, Emilio Pucci, and Roberto Cavalli, in particular. But that's not to say there weren't one-off sightings of Alaia, Louis Vuitton, and Chloe - and even Melanie Laurent in her second Dior couture gown, providing another preview of what's to come from the house's design studio in July. Giovanna Battaglia's vintage Versace get-up, Kirsten Dunst's Rodarte look, and more in the slideshow.

>> Couture and Roitfelds galore populated last night's amfAR's Cinema Against AIDS Gala, held as part of the Cannes festivities at Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Cap d’Antibes. Julia Restoin-Roitfeld, Vladimir Restoin-Roitfeld and their significant others (Robert Konjic and Giovanna Battaglia, respectively) were hosted by Peter Dundas at the Emilio Pucci table, while Carine Roitfeld - and Naomi Campbell, Dasha Zhukova, Kristen McMenamy, and Courtney Love - came decked out in Givenchy. Chanel, too, dressed a host of ladies for the event - including Charlotte Casiraghi, Kirsten Dunst, and Karolina Kurkova - which set a new record, raising more than $10 million for AIDS research (the cost per plate was reportedly $10,000, after all).

fashionologie — Fri, 22 Apr 2011 10:23:32 PDT

>> Anja Rubik, who became engaged to longtime boyfriend, model Sasha Knezevic, last December, has hammered out a few details on her wedding, she said today: “We’re getting married in July, so we’re in the middle of preparing everything. It’s a little stressful because we want it to be perfect but it’s going to be small - close friends and family in Europe.” As for her dress? “I’m really excited because Peter Dundas from Pucci is doing my dress. I saw a few of his sketches already. And I work with [Giuseppe] Zanotti a lot, so they’re sending me a lot of shoes to pick from!” [Modelinia]

W Reporter Recounts a Tale of Carine Roitfeld Being Snippy, Talks Sex with Peter Dundas

fashionologie — Wed, 26 Jan 2011 11:24:23 PST

>> Emilio Pucci's Peter Dundas dressed both Carine Roitfeld and Julia Restoin-Roitfeld for Julia's intimate 30th birthday party, held at Indochine back in November. He also dressed a W reporter, who he then brought along to the fete. That reporter writes of the experience in W's February 2011 issue: "The music is deafening; the cigarette smoke is blinding; champagne is flowing copiously; canapes are being shunned. The dancing falls into two camps: conga line (Carine) versus on the banquette (Julia)." And later: "When I explain to the hostess [Carine] that I am writing a profile of Dundas and that I’d be grateful for a quote about the dress she’s wearing, she glares at me, then answers extremely slowly, with the labored patience of a teacher addressing an obtuse child: 'Peter made. This dress. For me. It is Pucci. PUCCI.'"

Dundas, for his part, enlightened the reporter on how he keeps his tan: “I’m building this house in Greece, and there’s a fantastic hippie beach where they go nude nearby.…” His thoughts on sex: “The truth is, it’s something that’s incredibly important to me. I think it should be important to everybody. I mean, it’s fantastic. It’s why we’re here.” And how he ends up making such sexy dresses for Pucci: “It’s not that I think, Oh, I need to make the dress sexy. It’s that the body is just so beautiful to me. The same way that when you make love to somebody many times, you notice different parts of the body, and you celebrate them.”
