Chat’elier: inspired by perfume
On Sunday we had the first Chat’elier meet-up, themed perfumes. It is the first of a series of fashion meet-ups that a few of us Cluj girls have started. The idea was to dress up inspired by our favorite perfume, and then discuss it with other girls, watch perfume ads and videos, and generally get acquainted. Although fragrances are not my thing, I love the idea of dressing up with a theme in mind.

Some wondered if the situation will be weird – a bunch of strangers with one common interest: fashion. It turned out that fashion – and perfumes in particular – make quite the conversation starter. Others doubted this project, saying that they don’t know much about fashion. In my view, you don’t have to know designers and collections to enjoy your fashion. Some like the clothes, some are crazy about accessories, some can’t live without their favorite designer perfume, some just like dressing up – it’s all fashion. Thrifting, Polyvore, blogging, magazines – they’re all accepted, don’t you think?

Gloria of Flashme in DKNY Women
Everyone interpreted the theme to their own will. I, for one, tried to follow the notes of the perfume: floral (hyacinth and narcissus), yet fresh (rhubarb). Accordingly, I wore a green lace dress with a floral pattern – while trying to incorporate something from the way the bottle looks.
I loved that some of the girls were inspired by the ad campaign, others by the bottle design, others simply by a feeling that the perfume brings upon them.

Great idea to dress up inspired as one’s fave perfume!
I would have dressed like that: http://i42.tinypic.com/2a0mdk6.jpg Can you guess the perfume? Hint: it’s inspired by the ads and the campaign.
I have no idea! Is it something Tommy Hilfiger?
I love that you made an outfit inspired by a perfume, just so you know!
Yaay! It IS Tommy Girl by Tommy Hilfiger, well done
I loved the idea of a perfume inspired outfit too and had to resort to the looklet outfit since I couldn’t be there in person.
that’s great! “you” look lovely
Oh I bet you had loads of fun!
I adore these events, hopefully they will happen more often there
