One doesn’t normally think of an Air Force pilot and WWII bomber would ever evolve into a fashion designer, much less a sought-after, successful fashion designer. But Emilio Pucci surprised us all with his history. Born in 1914 to a noble Florence family, he served in the Italian Air Force from during WWII, worked his way up to captain, but left the Air Force behind in favor of fashion. It’s hard to picture a designer with his capabilities talking army strategy and flying bomber jets…but obviously, anything is possible.

Pucci is known for its kaleidoscope of vibrant, colorful prints and geometrical patterns and a ‘60s vibe on shoes and clothing; the man knew what needed to be done to stand out and his earliest efforts, colorful ski suits, certainly did. His couture house opened in 1950, and we here at Couture nabbed his shoes as soon as we could – these architecturally-inspired, pretty wedges and notice-me geometrically colorful pumps are some of our ultimate favorites.

Love affairs these days seem so short, don’t they? You are hot one moment — primping, posing and sashaying in magazine layouts for a brand — and then you're out. It would seem that the advertising tryst between Miu Miu and Kirsten Dunst is over, finished. Vanessa Paradis, famous French actress, established French musician and mother of Johnny Depp’s children is the brand’s new ‘It’ face, according to Women’s Wear Daily’s May 14 edition.

No word yet on who got to keep the clothes from the Dunst brand divorce. Just kidding. But perhaps the Devil really does wear Prada (Miu Miu’s owner, in case you did not know.)

Picasso may have been onto something – geometric shapes create more interesting silhouettes for notice-me paintings, in his case, and fashion in our case. Geometrical jewelry is gaining popularity for their attention-grabbing shapes. This cuff by Marc by Marc Jacobs is no exception.
