Fascinating Notting Hill<\/h1>\n\n\n

The Doors: choosen either as the editorial set or the soundtrack that inspired it.\nMelancholy is the typical feeling of a loving season like summer that ends and transforms itself in another one; when it\u2019s blended with a heavy heart to leave the home\ncountry to move abroad, it drives to a kind of sadness that matches with the awareness of changing: a cycle closes, another begins.\nThe concept behind the fashion editorial is the conscious involvement in a changing process: as the summer leaves its place to the fall, the season of lightheartedness\nleaves its place to a reflective maturity age. And sometimes growing up means go and live abroad. Alone. Bringing old experiences and creating new ones. Trying not to allow your life, as a long-term expatriate, falling somewhere between tourism and exile.\nThis could be sad, but extremely challenging.\nBack in London after holidays.\nWalking down the charming streets of Notting Hill, everybody can lose one\u2019s way in the neighborhood\u2019s cobblestoned streets that weave through scrunched alleyways and\nrichly furnished Victorian townhomes, and its stylish shops and passionate antique vendors satiate design-driven appetites. Every turn of a corner is a surprise and behind\nevery different coloured door flow different stories and lives.\nLong sunny days will be soon a warm souvenir of cheerful time spent in the home country with nearest and dearest people.\nRemnants of summer slide on the buildings fa\u00e7ades, climb down the stairs and still flirt with thin coloured dresses. Weather is changing by now: a cup of tea to warm up, a quick glimpse outside and then again thrown in the London mess, a toy model of the world.\nThe air is colder now and London is ready to be itself, plunged again in its own fog, rain, asphalt and rigor.\nIt is a stage on which to realize one\u2019s own dreams is possible, but then the mask falls and the reference to its truth becomes urgent. One may ask why London does not want\nties, to not suffer detachment, or to avoid having to accept to always occupy the only place a lover is permitted: the latter.\nIn the heat of an hot overcoat lies the certainty that summer will come back once again but the period of life will not.<\/p>\n\n\n
