Homo Victorianus

Mea culpa, ho perso le fonti di questo servizio. Sempre in tema Abiti Vittoriani, vi consiglio di dare una sbirciatina a QUESTO blog. Kat, la curatrice, è una pazza che riproduce nei minimi particolari abiti dell'epoca. La sto già amando.

Se poi desiderate addirittura creare un completo en pendant con le scarpe, sappiate che nell'ultima collezione Prada ha pensato a voi. Nel caso invece troviate quest'ultima soluzione un tantino eccessiva, chiedete direttamente a Miuccia di prestarvi i suoi orecchini.
