L’Hippie Chic è stato da sempre uno dei miei stili preferiti, perché con pochi e semplici pezzi si ha la possibilità di creare una serie di divertentissimi outfit, adatti per varie occasioni; basta semplicemente “giocare” con gli accessori e non esagerare. La maxi bag va benissimo per il giorno , ma se vogliamo un look Hippie Chic per la sera, perfetta una clutch, o una piccola tracolla full paillettes. L’eleganza è semplicità: “spesso togliere è meglio che aggiungere”, così diceva la maestra indiscussa dello stile Coco Chanel …
One of the most classic and easiest looks to follow and interpret for the summer, is definately the Hippie Chic one. A seach for total freedom identifies the Hippie movement, which started in the United States in the 1960’s, spreading soon across the world. The main elements which characterize this style are: floral prints, bell bottoms, brightly coloured long dresses, huge fabric shoulder bags, colourful accessories. Chic, a french word meaning elegant. The main element that characterises elegance is just one word: simplicity! All that is necessary is a small jewel. Don’t overdo the use of bracelets and necklaces, and here your Hippie style also becomes Chic ! In this outfit I interpreted Hippie Chic in a more beach version: a long and comfortable lime green dress, bangles and bracelets, a fish-net shoulder bag and bejewelled flat sandals, practical and essential for when you wear long summer dresses. My creative touch? A floral printed foulard (a must-have for this summer) tied around my head which gives the outfit something rather “allure vintage”.
L’Hippie Chic has always been one of my favourite styles because with just a few simple items you have the possibility of creating a series of fun outfits, perfect for any occassion. You simply need to play with accessories but without exaggerating. The maxi bag is ok for the daytime, but if you want a Hippie Chic look for the evening, a clutch or small sequined shoulder bag is perfect. Elegance is simplicity: “sometimes taking away is better than adding” is what the undisputed teacher of style, Coco Chanel used to say …

Niù, a friulian brand born in 1999 through the love and feeling of Serena Cibischino and her brother Bruno.The collections are now distributed in Europe, Russia, Japan and Kuwait. Niù is chic, trendy and definately for the niche. The new spring/summer 2012 collection is called Impression d’Afrique, and it gets its inspiration from Roussel’s text: an aching, yet extravagant and fantastic journey in a dreamy Africa which drammatically concludes with the scholar’s suicide at the Hotel Palmes di Palermo, after an existance in search of unconstrained luxury, characterised by the disturbing presence of the number three: three waiters, three chauffeurs, three Louis Vuitton trunks…
Same places, but different perceptions mark Niù’s african experience: a real journey, a felt journey, enjoyed to the last second, in a magical continent: colours, fragrances, the regal gait of the Senegalese women, have all been an inspiration for Serena and Bruno and their new collection where simple forms and shapes and femininity predominante.
Immerse yourselves in the fantastic world of Niù…
