Into the For centuries, one colour has defned Greek style and this season the country’s leading designers are using it to great efect, Elle Blakeman reports
PHOTO: CHrisTOs THeOlOglOu
In Greece, there is a colour that not only defnes the land, but is deeply entwined with its history and culture. The uplifting shade of blue is today synonymous with the beautiful islands, matching the clear sky and lapping Mediterranean sea surrounding them. This colour was originally believed to ward of evil and was therefore used to decorate windows, doors, walls, staircases and fences in a bid to head of the approach of bad spirits, and samaria – blue ‘belts’ –

were painted around buildings. Cupolas – the small dome-like structures at the very top of Catholic churches – would be painted in bright sky blue and are now an iconic feature of Greece. From these superstitious beginnings, the colour has gone on to become the shade that is most associated with Greek style. In art, highly revered pieces were painted with the expensive gemstone lapis lazuli, the dress of the Madonna would always be the brightest shade of blue that materials allowed for, while statues of heroes, such as the one of Zeus in Olympia, had eyes of turquoise added to them. The Greeks then started to wear jewellery made with turquoise stones, such as the ‘evil eye’, which is still a popular souvenir for visitors to the country.
blue
28 | F E AT U R E S
It is no surprise then, that Greece’s fashion designers will often look to this historically important colour when designing their collections. The aquatic shade fts perfectly with the country’s traditionally fuid shapes and materials, and while blue is often associated with summer, in Greece it works well year-round. ‘Grecian blue is a timeless and an any-season shade which is why people choose to wear it again and again,’ explains international stylist Anna Woodham whose clients have included the London department store Selfridges and asos.com. Athens-based designer Samantha Sotos is known for her elegant, fowing shapes and use of colour. Originally from Australia, she combines relaxed Antipodean style with the glamorous clean lines of Greek and European tradition, and her collections are peppered with long, graceful dresses and fgure-hugging draped tops and matching skirts. She has embraced the shade of her adopted country with gusto: hues of peacock, electric blue and navy all make a regular appearance in her collections, while her headpieces, such as the recent Bird of Paradise fascinator, featuring two entwined shades of blue, can be seen as a nod to the ancient accessories of Greece and as a modern talisman for the superstitious. Meanwhile, Ioanna Kourbela is making waves at home and abroad with her stunning, easy-towear designs. Her family has been 60 /

producing handmade knitwear since 1971 and her collections retain the minimal aesthetic favoured by her relatives. Kourbela’s pieces are beautiful homages to the textile traditions of Greece – fabrics such as cotton, linen, wool and silk are dyed in natural shades of stone, white and blue, giving a light and airy look, and all designs are kept modern through the use of laser cutting and fowing fabrics. When seeking dramatic-looking eveningwear, style leaders including Kate Moss and Carla Bruni have turned to Athens-born designer Vassilios Kostetsos. Sea green, sky blue and golden yellow are used to great efect on everything from ftted suits to draped foor-length gowns. But don’t let the draping fool you – this is no throwback to ancient Greece, but a modern spin on traditional ideas: gowns are split up to the thigh or down to the navel, huge batwing sleeves are pulled in with ruched corsetry, and netted skirts reveal bright, high-waisted underwear. For an equally opulent, yet slightly more wearable aesthetic, consider an item by famed couture designer Makis Tselios. His fattering, feminine aesthetic often favours shades of blue, from Gatsbylike suits in chic, powdery grey hues to foor-length lace and silk dresses in seductive creamy cerulean, fnished with several strings of pearls. And it’s not just women’s clothing that is bursting with Greece’s frst colour. Menswear designer Nikos Apostolopoulos never fails to include the shade in his collec-
tions, and his most popular wedding suits are a very ftted version in a cool metallic blue, and a suave, looser style in powder blue. Meanwhile, Sotiris Georgiou has plumped for a navy shade this season which he has added to long, boxy jackets and to structured trousers fnished with a bold fash of leather. From fowing goddess gowns to the sculptural domes of Athens and Thessaloniki, the country’s saturated shade is one that transcends trends samanthasotos.com, ioannakourbela.com, kostetsos.com, makistselios.gr, nikosapostolopoulos.gr, sotirisgeorgiou.com

When it comes to dressing for the journey, Louis Vuitton’s Icons capsule collection is a good place to start. This season the regularly updated line is inspired by the style of the French architect and designer Charlotte Perriand, who combined utility with beauty. Capes – which were classic accessories during the golden age of travel in the early 20th century – are enjoying a renaissance, and among the Icons clothing items for autumn and winter are woollen ponchos, as well as reversible check coats with camel interiors. For fat shoes, among the best options are horsebit loafers from Gucci or Tod’s. And if you’re
preparing for a long-haul fight, Madeleine Thompson – who divides her time between London and Hong Kong – has created luxurious travel slippers in cashmere. In fact, she has thought about everything to make the journey as enjoyable as possible, with a range that includes pyjamas and a blanket, both in cashmere, an eye mask and, best of all, a cashmere and silk pillowcase which will no doubt improve the comfort of the pillow provided by your airline. Penny Klein and Heidi Gosman, the stylish duo behind go-to swimwear label Heidi Klein, are no strangers to international travel (the label’s resort 2015 campaign was shot in the British Virgin Islands). The women’s advice to those who will be enjoying the sun this season is to pack two reversible bikinis (such as Heidi Klein’s São Paulo and Jaipur designs) and mix and match them. The sandals from Ancient Greek Sandals, a breakout brand set up by Christina Martini, the former Balenciaga and Louis Vuitton accessories designer, have been seen on the feet of women including Jessica Alba and Candice Swanepoel. The label’s shoes are all handmade in Greece and can be hot stamped with your initials. To help plan your visit, if you’re not having a digital detox, Martini recommends the app Like a Local, which has been given fve stars by Mashable, a leading technology website. ‘It helps avoid tourist traps and allows you to discover hidden gems,’ she says.

The jet-setting South African luxury jewellery designer Kirsten Goss can never aford to be ofgrid for long and relies on the Monster Powercard, a portable device for recharging iPhones and iPads. ‘It’s got an unbelievable level of power and has got me out of too many sticky situations,’ she laughs. And fnally, we turn to the suitcase. The traditionalist’s choice would be an item from the British company Globe-Trotter, whose pieces are handmade to order in England and are crafted from vulcanised fbreboard. If in London, take time to visit the company’s recently launched fagship store in Mayfair where you can view its new Albemarle collection in caramel and red leather which is exclusive to the store. For something thoroughly contemporary, consider the multi-wheel Rimowa Titanium.
Goss bought a set of three of these cases some 10 years ago: ‘They have been bashed, thrown and hauled around the world and still see me through,’ she maintains. Perhaps the ultimate in luxury travel accessories is an innovation from Moynat. Conceived in Paris by Pauline Moynat in 1849, these custom-made trunks ft the contours of a car’s boot and can be colour matched with the vehicle’s exterior. The company’s new artistic director, Ramesh Nair, is a former Hermès designer, so look out for re-imaginings of these must-have items.

Greece has long been associated with spa culture. The country’s naturally occurring thermal and mineral springs have been used in wellness treatments for thousands of years; in fact, the ancient Greeks were known to have enjoyed the benefts of thermal baths as far back as 25BC and Hippocrates was an early exponent of their benefts. Therapeutic springs are ideal for those who want to relax and rejuvenate, and can be found throughout the country, in at least 850 locations. Greece’s spas are also known for ofering thalassotherapy – a treatment using seawater that aims to stimulate and tone tired muscles after a long day’s sightseeing. globalblue.com
Today, Greece’s luxury spas provide a range of options, and visitors can expect to fnd stateof-the-art ftness equipment to be available alongside traditional thalassotherapy pools and treatments using organic products.

Translations РУССКИЙ ПЕРЕВОД 26: Into The Blue
Опаленный синевой На протяжении веков определением греческого стиля был всего на всего один цвет, и в этом сезоне ведущие дизайнеры страны решили уделить ему особое внимание, – рассказывает Эль Блейкмен Есть один цвет, который как никакой другой ассоциируется с греческой землей, и глубоко переплетается с ее историей и культурой. Сегодня синий цвет служит напоминанием о прекрасных островах, ясном небе и сверкающей морской глади. Изначально считалось, что изображение синего цвета отгоняет злые силы, поэтому его использовали при украшении окон, дверей, стен, лестниц и оград, а дома очерчивали синими «поясами». Купола местных церквей было принято раскрашивать в ярко-голубой цвет, и сейчас они представляют собой одну из главных особенностей Греции. Так, отчасти благодаря суеверию местных жителей, синий цвет стал неотъемлемым элементом греческого стиля. В искусстве особо ценные работы всегда принято украшать редким минералом – лазуритом, одеяние Богородицы непременно несет в себе самый яркий оттенок синего, а статуи греческих богов, в том числе Зевса в Олимпии, зачастую имеют глаза из бирюзы. Кроме того, греки обожают украшения из минералов голубого цвета, которые можно приобрести в
globalblue.com
многочисленных сувенирных лавках. Не удивительно, что греческие дизайнеры так часто уделяют внимание этому цвету в своих коллекциях. Лазурные оттенки, идеально сочетающиеся с местными морскими пейзажами, ассоциируются у многих с летней порой, поэтому в Греции они актуальны практически круглый год. «Синий цвет – это классика и изящество. Для Греции это цвет любой поры года, вот почему он никогда не выходит здесь из моды», – объясняет международный стилист Анна Вудэм, услугами которой пользовались такие ритейлеры, как Selfridges и Asos.com. Афинский дизайнер Саманта Сотос известна своими элегантными нарядами с невероятно плавными формами. Будучи родом из Зеленого континента, она сочетает непринужденный австралийский стиль с яркими и чистыми линиями греческого и европейского дизайна. Ее коллекции включают длинные, изящные платья, обтягивающие топы с драпировкой и стильные юбки. С большой любовью она относится и к «счастливому» оттенку своей новой родины: ее работы пестрят оттенками голубого и пронзительно-синего, а стильные головные уборы, включая шляпку-фасинатор Bird of Paradise, словно выражают дань древнегреческой моде и одновременно служат отличным талисманом для суеверных. Тем временем Иоанна Курбела покоряет сердца своих поклонников модными коллекциями красивой и незамысловатой одежды. Ее семья владеет трикотажным бизнесом с 1971 года, и дизайнер унаследовала от них
61 любовь к минимализму. Коллекции Курбелы – великолепная дань греческим традициям: ткани из хлопка, льна, шерсти и шелка окрашены в натуральные оттенки серого, белого и голубого, а стильный дизайн дополнен современными узорами и плавными линиями. Если вы ищете шикарное вечернее платье, то можно последовать примеру Кейт Мосс и Карлы Бруни, и обратиться к афинскому дизайнеру одежды Вассилиосу Костецос (Vassilios Kostetsos). Любимая палитра дизайнера включает цвет морской волны, небесный голубой и ярко-золотой. Эти оттенки можно встретить практически во всех работах дизайнера, от костюмов до платьев в пол с драпировкой. Однако пусть драпировка вас не смущает, она имеет мало общего с древнегреческими одеждами и скорее является стилизованным элементом греческого наряда: платья имеют глубокий вырез до бедра, широкие рукава, и собранный в рюш корсет, а за полупрозрачной сеточкой платьев можно разглядеть нижнее белье. Если вам хочется чего-то не менее роскошного, но в то же время более удобного, обратите внимание на знаменитого греческого модельера Макима Целиоса (Makis Tselios). Его коллекции отличаются необыкновенной женственностью и оригинальностью, а что касается цветовой гаммы, то и здесь не обошлось без традиционных оттенков, от голубого и светло-серого в шикарных костюмах до нежнобирюзового в кружевных платьях, украшенных вышивкой и жемчугом. Однако не только лишь женская одежда пестрит греческой синевой.
Дизайнер мужской одежды Никос Апостолопулос (Nikos Apostolopoulos) никогда не упускает возможности включить национальные оттенки в свои коллекции. Его приталенные свадебные костюмы отливают насыщенным синим, а повседневные свободные наряды – пепельноголубым. Между тем, Сотирис Георгиу (Sotiris Georgiou) предпочел в этом сезоне темно-синий, который он применил к угловатым пиджакам и структурным брюкам, украшенным полосками из кожи. Что ни говори, а национальный греческий оттенок выходит далеко за рамки модных трендов, и идеально подходит как роскошным платьям, так и архитектурным шедеврам Афин и Салоник. samanthasotos.com, ioannakourbela.com, kostetsos.com, makistselios.gr, nikosapostolopoulos.gr, sotirisgeorgiou.com
30: Good To Go
Хорошей дороги! Стефани Хиршмиллер рассказывает о качественных чемоданах, комфортной одежде и других полезных вещах, которые сделают путешествие не только удобным, но и стильным Среди всего многообразия аксессуаров из арсенала современного путешественника по-настоящему роскошный стиль воплощают сумки и чемоданы Louis Vuitton. Эта компания была основана в 1854 году и быстро прославилась фирменными багажными кофрами с плоским дном. В прошедшие полтора века значимость бренда неуклонно растет, и каждая серия сумок, будь то Speedy, Alma
62 или Never Full, получает заслуженное признание. Новый дизайнер марки Николя Гескьер (автор бестселлера Lariat для Balenciaga) детально изучил наследие Louis Vuitton и переосмыслил исторический чемодан с монограммой в модели Petite-Malle, которая уже претендует на статус It-bag сезона. Серия Icons этого модного дома предлагает отличные решения для дорожных комплектов одежды. Она обновляется каждый сезон, и в этом году ориентируется на стиль французского архитектора и дизайнера Шарлотты Перрианд, суть которого – в объединении функциональности с красотой. Сезон возрождения переживают сейчас плащи с капюшоном – обязательный элемент золотого времени путешествий в начале 20 века. Коллекция Icons развивает эту тему с помощью шерстяных пончо и двусторонних клетчатых пальто с верблюжьей подкладкой. Накидка от модного дома Dolce & Gabbana выглядит так, будто спустилась из волшебной зимней сказки. Вариация Valentino декорирована изображениями лесных животных и необычных бабочек, пончо Burberry похожи на теплые пледы, а силуэты Saint Laurent укорочены в стиле 1960-х. В дорогу лучше отправляться в удобной обуви на плоской подошве, и мы рекомендуем лоферы от Gucci и Tod’s. Дизайнер Мадлен Томпсон, которая живет на два города, Лондон и Гонконг, и постоянно курсирует между ними, специально для продолжительных перелетов создала роскошные мягкие туфли из кашемира. Она продумала все до мелочей, чтобы сгладить неудобства длительных путешествий: в ее коллекции – маска для глаз,
globalblue.com
пижама, одеяло и наволочки из кашемира и шелка. Дизайнеры Пенни Кляйн и Хайди Госман развивают популярную марку одежды для пляжного отдыха Heidi Klein. Их дело пронизывает дух международных путешествий: курортная рекламная кампания марки в 2015 году снималась на Британских Виргинских островах. Если в этом сезоне вы отправляетесь в теплые страны, Heidi Klein рекомендует приобрести два двусторонних купальника-бикини, которые можно сочетать в различных комбинациях, как, например, модели São Paulo и Jaipur. Марку обуви Ancient Greek Sandals создала Кристина Мартини, которая раньше разрабатывала аксессуары для Balenciaga и Louis Vuitton. Джессика ãльба и Кандис Свейнпол уже стали поклонницами ее греческих сандалий ручной работы, тем более что на них можно разместить собственные инициалы. Если вы не выключаете гаджеты на время путешествия, то помогать в пути вам будет приложение Like a Local. Пользователи портала Mashable, специализирующегося на различных технологиях, дали ему высшую оценку. Такого же мнения придерживается и Кристина Мартини: «Это приложение помогает избегать туристических ловушек и находить самые интересные места города». Дизайнер ювелирных украшений из Южной ãфрики Кирстен Госс тоже предпочитает оставаться на связи всегда, поэтому пользуется Monster Powercard – портативным устройством для зарядки iPhone и iPad: «Эта станция дает невероятный уровень мощности и не раз меня выручала в сложных ситуациях», - улыбается она.
63 И, наконец, чемодан. Если вы придерживаетесь традиций, то непременно обратите внимание на британскую компанию Globe-Trotter. Все ее дорожные кейсы создаются английскими мастерами на заказ и исключительно вручную. Также компания запатентовала собственный износостойкий материал – «vulcanised fbreboard». Новую коллекцию марки Albemarle, в которую вошли сумки из кожи карамельного и красного оттенков, можно посмотреть только в новом флагманском магазине марки в лондонском районе Мейфэр. Но если вы предпочитаете исключительно современное оборудование, рекомендуем попробовать четырехколесный чемодан Rimowa Titanium. Кирстен Госс приобрела набор из трех кейсов еще 10 лет назад: «Их роняли, бросали и возили по всему миру, но они не вышли из строя, и я до сих пор ими пользуюсь», утверждает она. Пожалуй, самым роскошным предложением в этой сфере можно назвать новинку марки Moynat, которую в 1849 году в Париже открыла Полин Мойна. Эти чемоданы ручной работы по форме подходят в багажник автомобиля, а также могут быть перекрашены под ее цвет. Новый арт-директор компании Рамеш Наир – бывший дизайнер Hermès, так что можно ожидать новых переосмыслений классических вещей бренда. Следуя нашим рекомендациям, вы будете путешествовать не только удобно, но и стильно.
