An entirely handmade collection by former Chilean sculptor Miguel Muñoz Wilson. Each Munoz Vrandecic piece can be regarded as an object in itself—leather compressed under a five-ton press and finished using proprietary dyeing techniques to reveal its distinctive texture. Crafted from natural baby calf leather and defined by a weighty, substantial presence, every item is made exclusively from the finest materials, allowing the leather to gradually adapt to the wearer’s body temperature and usage over time. These works neither simply follow classical traditions nor rely on eccentricity for impact; instead, they stand out through their raw character and individuality. x
BACK IN TIME: LADY GAGA ATTENDS ORANGE ROCKCORPS IN JEAN-CHARLES DE CASTELBAJAC
Orange RockCorps held a photocall and small press conference in Gaga’s London hotel room before the singer left en route to her own show at O2 Manchester Apollo on July 13, 2009.
Fun, funniest, Jean-Charles de Castelbajac!
The songstress turned up in a “Animal” Muppet-inspired black and pink faux fur, plush material and satin dress with tuxedo-inspired bodice featuring a pink-lined draped collar and shoulder pads from the French designer’s Fall/Winter 2009 collection.
Her oversized shield sunglasses are the Goldwing by Alpina she purchased at Jack’s Eyewear in downtown LA.
Backstage at RockCorps, Gaga also held on to the “Animal” muppet muff (that can also be worn as a bag) from the same Jean-Charles de Castelbajac collection. The face is made of leather appliqués while the eyebrows are made of faux fur.
Lastly, Gaga wore a pair of black leather wedge booties with doorknocker detail and attached ankle strap by Parisian artisanal label Munoz Vrandecic.
BACK IN TIME: LADY GAGA ATTENDS AIDS CHARITY EVENT IN MUGLER, RAY-BAN & MUNOZ VRANDECIC
Lady Gaga helped out at an AIDS Charity Event held in Manchester on June 29th, 2009. This is where she wore the iconic button-shaped wig.
The Italian-American fashionista wore an interesting jacket, which is vintage Mugler.
Her double-breasted tuxedo jacket features satin lapels and diagonal flap pockets, and a sultry open back cut-out detail. Typically Mugler. Unfortunately I was only able to find a similar one. She paired it with some matching skinny trousers.
Her button-shaped hairpiece was custom-made for her by hair expert and artisan Shinji Konishi who collaborated with art director Nagi Noda and Asami Nemoto
She also wore a pair of vintage 1960s Ray-Ban x Arnold Palmer Cypress Point frames in black with an unique umbrella logo on each side.
