OPEN STORE: MEUH!
Open Store: Meuh!
January 27th, 2010
The goodies we spot at Meuh! are just as adorable as its name. This cute little shop was opened by French designer Helene Meunier at the end of 2009, and her vintage-inspired, bold-colored designs are so lively and funky that you can hardly get your eyes off them.
Being a self-taught designer, Helene Meunier draws her inspiration from her valuable collection of French fashion magazines from the 1950's and 1960's. A quick browse through the shelves and you might think you're in the prop room for Mad Man. Red and white stripped suit, bright orange one-shoulder dress with a bow wastebelt, shiny black leather raincoat...Each item here is bound to be a head-turner in the street or at the party.
In spirit of the Chinese New Year, the red cashmere cardigan with hand-made embroidery (1,100rmb) is a must-have for those wishing for good luck in the year of the Tiger. If you're looking for something more versatile, the one-sleeve blue wrapper (860rmb) offers more than one way to wear it - just be creative and have fun experimenting! Want to shine at the party? The yellow and red checked dress in Thai silk (2,400rmb) is full of flair and flatters your body in an ingenious way.
There is also a small collection of men's clothes at Meuh!, including suits, coats, waistcoats and funky print shirts. Most items here come in European size, but don't worry if you can't find your size - tailor-made service is available without extra charge. Oh, and an extra reminder: there is a sale (30-50% off) at the moment and it will last till the middle of February - don't miss it! - Stella Shu
