Together with vintage fashion, unique piece fashion arrived too and, believe me, I just love it. But it's not new to me. Short retrospective:

Bambina-di-cui-non-ricordo-il-nome : oh ! Un abito che gira ! È bello, dai, gira ancora!
Io (orgogliosa) : è mia zia che l’ha cucito!
1994 (14 anni)Io (orgogliosa) : è mia zia che l’ha cucito!
Ragazza-piena-di brufoli-e-d’arroganza : ma cos'è sta roba ? L’hai comprata alla Caritas? Hahahaha!
Io (arrabbiata) : sì, e i pois rossi della gonna andrebbero benissimo con la tua faccia acneica! (La presenza di acne sulla mia propria faccia non mi impediva di rispondere tali cose).
1999 (19 anni)
Studentessa-che-copia-le-altre : oooh ! Dove l’hai comprato ? È ancora in vendita?
Io (sollevata) : temo di no, ha ben 30 anni (hehehe)!
2009
Donna-appassionata-di-moda : oh ! Delle Fendi! Ma ti saranno costate tantissimo!
Io (ironica) : oh sì, se sapessi!

1988 (8 years old)
Girl-whose-name-I-forgot: Oh! A turning dress! It's so nice, come on, turn again!
Me (proud): it's my aunt who knitted it!
1994 (14 years old)
Girl- full-of-acne-and-arrogance: what's this stuff? Did you buy it from the Salvation Army? Ahahahah!
Me (angry) : yeah, and the red polka dots of the skirt would match very well with your acne-face! (acne's presence on my face didn't prevent me from saying this kind of things).
1999 (19 years old)
Student-copying-others: ooh! Where did you buy it? Is it still on sale?
Me (relieved): I fear it's not anymore, it's 30 years old (eheheh)!
2009
Fashion-victim-woman: oh ! Fendi shoes! You must have paid them a lot!
Me (ironic) : well, yes, if you just knew!

So, I'm used to unique-pieces, and even if from time to time I flinch and buy things I see on every fashion blog (polka dots stockings, I'm talking about you!), I'm just like this, I chase the rare pearl. Anyway, don't you think I only like vintage clothes: hand-made clothes, small firms, what you find on Etsy, I love it! So I was so happy to discover MaBe,a young Italian firm who produces unique-pieces. You buy something on their site? Whoosh! Then, it's sold out! Ah, I just love it!




Ecco ! Ho una nuova maglia morbida ! Con delle maniche a pipistrello! E verde! E serigrafata! Con un disegno liberty che mi ricorda i vetri dei corridoi dei palazzi torinesi! Ricevuta in un bel pachetto! E ho ritrovato la mia vecchia minigonna del 2001! E viva il cielo bianco della Pianura Padana!

I like the idea that two stylists took their chance like this, opened a site, try to live out of their passion, do not fear to create original clothes in very small quantities. How courageous! Not to talk about the fact that they only sell on the Internet: on-line shopping is not so developed in Italy, compared to the US and northern european countries.
There it is! I have a new soft sweater! With bat sleeves! And it's green! With an art-nouveau drawing that reminds me of the glasses of Turin palaces corridors! Which came in a beautiful packaging! And I found my 2001 lost miniskirt! And long live Po river plain's white coloured sky!
