The Blonds. Phillipe Rolano and David Trujillo, also known as Phillipe and David Blond are couple both in their proffessional and personal life. They launched their brand only four years ago (they dropped the “e” because that’s how the masculine version is spelled—without an “e”) and in such a short time they've already dressed one of the sxiest bodies on the list of the famous fashion queens. They are famous for their corsetry. Each piece is handmade and one of the kind. I believe almost all them of will look familiar to you but you probably didn't know all of them are signed by The Blonds. They started making outfits for themselves to go out on the town and Patricia Field took notice and one day asked themto make stuff to put into the store.
Y ahí es donde empezó a sonar el nombre The Blonds entre las celebrities y estilistas. Christina Aguilera eligió uno de los bodies para el booklet de su CD "Back to Basics"...
And that's how their label name became familiar among celebrities and stylists. Christina Aguilera chose one of their creations for the booklet of her "Back to Basics" album...
Que si no me equivoco es el mismo que lleva Dita von Teese en esta foto...
That if I'm right is the same one Dita von Teese wears on this picture...
Beyoncé lució uno de sus corsé en su video "Upgrate U"...
Beyoncé has chosen their Swarovski crystal corset for the "Upgrade U" video...
Alica Keys en los últimos BET Awards vestía uno de los tops de la colección Otoño/Invierno 2008.
Alicia Keys for her performance during the last BET Awards picked one of the tops from their Fall/Winter 2008 collection.
El pedazo de corsé que llevaba Fergie en la campaña para M.A.C. y cuyos visuales salieron prácticamente en todas las revistas, también lo crearon Phillipe con David.
The corset Fergie wore for M.A.C. campaign, that appeared in just about each and every magazine, also was created by Phillipe and David.
Si viste la actuación de Rihanna durante la ceremonía de Fashion Rocks, ya sabes quienes están detrás de este modelito (aquí tuve suerte pues encontré el boceto y la foto de la modelo Amelia Tkach ayudando a los diseñadores durante el proceso creativo).
If you saw Rihanna's performance during Fashion Rocks Ceremony, you know already who was behind this outfit (here I was lucky to find a sketch as well as this photo of the model Amelia Tkach helping The Blonds during the creative process).
Cuando entraron a la habitación de Rihana, estaba todo repleto de percheros llenos de ropa y temían que la cantante no iba a querer salir al escenario vestida en alguna de sus piezas. Era abrumador ver ropa de grandes diseñadores alrededor suyo y se sentían como "quienes somos nosotros... ella puede elegir de todo esto...". Pero luego cuando al salir del cuarto de baño se les acercó directamente, escogió una pieza y dijo que es más sxy que el nuevo Ferrari que le compró su chico, las sensaciones cambiaron. Phillipe sentía como una explosión por dentro pero intentaba mantener la calma. "Era terrible", dijo, "en lo único que era capaz de pensar era "ella ella ella"...
Phillipe commented thier experience when they first worked with Rihanna. "When we walked into her hotel room there was so many racks full of clothing and I was so nervous that she wouldn't go with one of our pieces. Like, who were we when she had all these huge designer labels all around the room. But then she came out of the bathroom in her robe and went right over to the table with our looks on them and picked one up and put it towards her waste and said. "Wow, this is hot, hotter than the new Ferrari my boo got me." I was like exploding inside but kept telling myself to keep cool. And it's terrible, but all I kept thinking was "ella ella ella"...
No me extraña Rihanna se quedó tan contenta como para volver a contar con los chicos (como ya seguramente viste en este y otros muchos blogs, Rihanna llevaba este "arma" durante los AMA Awards). Yo tampoco me lo pensaría dos veces. El corsé y collar de la colección de esta temporada, a pesar de es una pieza más para una actuación (y que también luce de maravilla en fotos para las revistas), es una pasada y no me importaría nada tenerla en mi armario (incluyendo un par de corsés más y un vestido que ahora te enseñaré). Mira los detalles...
No wonder Rihanna was so happy with them she repeated the experience (as you saw on this and many other blogs, Rihanna wore this "weapon" during AMA Awards). I wouldn't hesitate either. The corset and necklace she wore are both from The Blonds FW 2008 collection and despite the fact this piece can be used more for a performance or (as you'll see below) for photo shoots, rather than for "just going out", I find it breathtaking and I wouldn't mind having it in my closet (including a couple of corsets more and a fab dress I'm going to show you in a while). Look at all the spikes, chains and other detalis it has...
En el showroom * In the showroom
En el cuerpo de Rihanna... * On Rihanna...
Durante la pasarela... * On the model during the presentation...
Para ponertelo necesitarías por lo menos un par de personas... (tampoco me importaría chicos, me lo probaré cuando queráis :o)
You'd need like two assistants to put it on... (which I wouldn't mind either and I'll be happy to try it on anytime you two like guys :o)
Una obra de arte perfecta para ser inmortalizada en editoriales.
A work of art that is just perfect to be immortalized in editorials.
Piezas que destacaría de su colección de esta temporada son este corsé de plumas.
From their FW collection I'd also love to show you this feather corset.
Y esta maravilla roja, que era amor a primera vista.
And this red wonder, that was a love at first sight.
Y este corsé, parecido al que llevaba Beyoncé en su videoclip es otro de los que tengo en mi interminable lista. Ayayaaaaay...
And this crystal corset, similar to the one Beyoncé has on in her video, is other one from my neverending wishlist. Ouch!
Y finalmente, este es el vestido que te comenté... Quiero esta joya.
And finally, this is the dress I mentioned you above... I want want want this jewel.
El de momento último proyecto de Phillipe y David es la cooperación con Britney Spears. Se rumorea que va más allá del booklet para su nuevo álbum "Circus", así que si es cierto, volveremos hablar sobre mi nuevos amores rubios. De momento Britney en un corsé de esta campaña...
Their so far last project is the cooperation with Britney Spears on her new CD "Circus" booklet. The rumours say they'll be working on her upcoming tour costumes as well, so if this is true, I'll be back with new news about my new blond loves. And here comes Britney in a corset from this season collection...
... y en uno de los vestidos estrella (nunca mejor dicho) de la colección Primavera/Verano 2009. De la pasarela directamente a la portada de su CD. Qué suerte tiene la nena.
... and in one of the key looks from the Spring/Summer 2009 collection. From the runway directly to Britney's CD cover. Lucky her.
A los chicos les encanta el trabajo del maestro Thierry Mugler y mi deseo es verles trabajar juntos. Ojalá.
Phillipe and David love Thierry Mugler's work and my wish is seeing these three hyper creative man working together. Let's hope so!
