Fashion House Missoni to Design First Condo Bldg in the World


Two companies from opposite ends of the world, both rooted on the same foundations of a rich history, respect for family values and a culture of passion, creativity and quality, have forged a partnership for a one of a kind condominium development in Asia.

Century Properties, the Philippine’s foremost developer of luxury real estate, officially announced its collaboration with Missoni Home, the global Italian fashion and design brand, for a project that the former plans to build in Manila.

Missoni Home will create the interiors and amenity spaces of the new Century project, making it the first residential development by Missoni Home in the world. The firm’s Managing Directors Marco and Robbie Antonio are yet to announce the development’s name but confirmed that it is a residential building.

Design Sketches For Grace Kelly Gowns For Sale





Christie’s auction house has another classic goodie up for sale.
This time it’s the chance to own some of the designs behind a few of Grace Kelly’s iconic dresses.
Four sketches by Hollywood costume designer Edith Head of popular gowns worn by Kelly will be going up for auction this month.
The dresses were created for Grace when starring in two of Alfred Hitchcock’s films. Three were from her role in Rear Window and one from To Catch a Thief.
And the drawings, made in the 1950s, are estimated to bring in some big cash.
In fact, each is estimated to sell between $8,000 - $13,000!
Would U pay that much?
