LENA LUMELSKY FW 12/13 – TEXT BY PHILIPPE POURHASHEMI PHOTOS BY ZEB DAEMEN

Dear Shaded Viewers,

You have two more days to check out Lena Lumelsky's beautiful collection in her Paris showroom. An expert at combining hard and soft, the Antwerp-based designer focused on contrasting silhouettes, mixing structured tailoring with layered skirts. I love her use of leather, which she keeps going back to. Her woman is strong and powerful, but she also has a soft and vulnerable side.

Her showroom is located 34 Galerie Vivienne, 75002 Paris, open from 9h00 to 18h30.
