Le Colette

Far from the usual assessment that tends to accompany birthdays, Colette celebrated its 15th year by organizing a Carnival a few weeks ago in Paris. During this giant « school fair » animated by friends of the famous store at 213 rue Saint Honoré, « Le Colette » was introduced.

FIGURE Magazine – Talents #2

We talked about it in our December Trendletter devoted to media: paper is proving to be an alternative to digital. With this in mind we met Côme de Bouchony and Vincent de Hoÿm to talk about FIGURE, a new player in the world of magazines…


NellyRodi : NellyRodi: Could you describe Figure to us?


Côme de Bouchony and Vincent de Hoÿm: : FIGURE is a magazine that presents culture in a transversal manner (art, design, music, architecture, nature, media, gastronomy, style, sport and lifestyle) at a time when the frontiers between disciplines are no longer clear-cut.

However where many lifestyle magazines choose to present the trends, we prefer to give the floor to those who contribute to the making of their epoch. FIGURE is like a Zeitgeist portrait gallery. In the form of interviews, family portraits, tribunes or essays, artists, photographers and designers will be invited to illustrate or interpret their world. A way of allowing the public to discover personalities of all different disciplines and generations on an equal footing, whether they be outsiders, newcomers, renowned or icons. .

Launch of the Paris Shop & Design prize

Nelly Rodi, vice-president of the Paris Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCIP), launches the Paris Shop & Design Prize in close collaboration with Gérald Barbier, another CCIP vice-president and Jacques Leroux, CCIP delegate for the Fashion Design and Creation industry.

This prize, new for Paris, validates the most exemplary design initiatives taken by Paris’ stores, neighborhood services, cafes, hotels and restaurants. It’s true that Paris has the advantage of having an exceptionally dense number of commerce businesses and design professionals, two complementary sectors where design aids in business success and client relations.

The objective of this initiative is to break new ground and inform the public by awarding prizes for exceptional realizations which demonstrate the importance for businesses to incorporate design in their approach.


As Nelly Rodi emphasizes, “With this prize, the CCIP hopes to demonstrate the interest for sales points to use design to boost their development and growth”.

A Nick Knight “show” in Printemps’ windows

Photographer and director Nick Knight takes center stage in Printemps’ windows until March 24 in the context of “Vision Couture”. The department store takes a different look at the Spring-Summer 2012 collections, staging them in video projections incarnated by fashion muse Daphne Guinness.
The show is also about interaction, the windows react to movements of those on the street outside who become actors in their own images.

Our favorite : the Jalouse short film !

We love « A girl like any other », a short film directed by Matthew Frost, co-written with Fabien Prade, a sometime collaborator at NellyRodi. The movie shows a day in the life of top model Ashley Smith who’s just like any other girl, or almost … All accompanied by music from the talented Mattias Mimoun.

«Dans un monde qui vacille entre dérangé et trop bien rangé, une création survoltée expérimente de curieux télescopages où s’accouplent le saugrenu et le raffiné. Juxtapositions, accumulations et détournements dessinent un style sous psychotropes.»

Les vitrines s’animent !

Entre Kouklitas et marionnettes Coco, la course aux vitrines de Noël a lieu. Chaque année, les grands magasins de la capitale rivalisent à coup de créativité et de collaborations exceptionnelles : illuminations, animations et décorations sont au rendez vous, tous les moyens sont bons pour nous émerveiller.

Rock’N’Mode

Alors que la sortie du film les Muppets vient d’être reportée à la date du 11 avril 2012, les amateurs de poupées et autres petites marionnettes auront le plaisir de découvrir les vitrines très Rock’N’Mode des célèbres Galeries Lafayette. Animées par des Kouklitas, les poupées « haute couture » du jeune artiste Andrew Yang, les vitrines ont rencontré un franc succès grâce à l’œil avisé de Valérie Hudelot, Directrice de l’image et du merchandising qui avait repéré les créations de Andrew à New York la saison dernière.
