Great style lives on - Azzedine Alaia

Azzedine Alaia was born in 1939 - who knew? He is still so relevant....which is exactly the point of this post. It's not age, it's relevance that matters...

Inspired by his glamourous sister, and educated at L'Ecole des Beaux Arts in Tunis, ha actually began studying sculpture, which gave him the understanding of the human form. He is a genius....

He remains one of the few designers, who has not sold his soul, and his distribution is in the best stores globally. In the U.S. his beautiful creations can be found at Barney's, Mary Jane Denzer, Ikram and 4510.
