To celebrate its popular Le Cagole bag, which references Balenciaga’s maximalist It Bags of the past, and launch the line’s collection of accessories and shoes, the entire interior of the Mount Street store in London has been covered in fur.
Balenciaga wrapped these temporary fixtures and displays in a fluffy, bright pink faux fur chosen for its maximalist look to tie with the Le Cagole bag’s design.
Demna’s Le Cagole collection, which was first launched as a collection of handbags, has now extended into a number of different bags, shoes and purses. It takes its name from French slang that refers to an “over-the-top attitude”.
The launch of theย Bulgariย Aluminio in 1998 created quite a stir. Its unusual combination of black rubber and lightweight aluminumย resulted in an unconventional but highly attractive, eye-catching sports watch with a slick Italian soul. In 2020,ย Bulgari staged a much-anticipated comeback of theย Aluminumย with automatic movements and an increased water-resistance of 100 metrosย in time-and-date,ย chronographย andย GMT models.
One of the most distinguishing features of the Aluminium collection is the thick rubber bezel inscribed with Bvlgari Bvlgari. Picking up on the vesselโs black hull, the rubber bezel of the Aluminium Amerigo Vespucci is black, matching the black rubber strap. Home time can be tracked on the bright yellow and black anodised aluminium 24-hour flange with white numerals indicated by a central yellow arrow-tipped hand with lume. The yellow and black details on the sloping GMT flange and dial are meant to reference the golden trimmings and black railings of the Amerigo Vespucci.
