FASHIONISTA

THE WATCH: This is a cult watch based on the prototype created in 1917 and given to general John J. Pershing. Ever since, Tank от Cartier has repeatedly conquered the world. The ones most popular in the fashion world were Tank Americaine (1989) and Tank Francaise (1996). 2012 novelties are on the verge of challenging those tried and true must haves: meticulous inhabitants of Planet Fashion shall be torn between the small and the medium version of Tank Anglaise. Perhaps, they might settle on Tank Folle, if quick enough to purchase one of the 200 crazy models of white gold with might 1,6 carat of diamonds.

NB: The small Tank Anglaise is pink gold, a quartz timekeeper and 0,8 carat of cut brilliants. Plus they are water-proof up to 30 m deep! The medium version is not good for swimming, which is more than made up white gold, self-winding mechanism and 13,3 carat of bead set diamonds.

THE IMAGE: Professional fashionistas like glamorous divas, stellar stylists, illustrious buyers, in a word, anyone famous designers prostrate themselves before, cannot think of their season without a new tuxedo. This time with contrasting trouser stripes – Antonio Berardi, Gucci, Roberto Cavalli.

THE BENEFACTRESS

THE WATCH: This Cartier models seem to be especially designed for activists with various non-governmental organizations for wildlife mitigation. At that, all the three novelties also support the industrial arts: Rotonde de Cartier of white gold features a grisaille enamel tiger and a marquetry coala made of straw. The Tortue watch features a cockatoo engraved on pink mother-of-pearl. It goes without saying, these are all limited editions.

NB: The Cartier zoo also has a delightful sleeping panda in black and white bead set diamonds and a walking panther of white diamonds and sapphires – both toys from the High Jewellery watches collection.

THE IMAGE: Rescuing tigers, wear Giambattista Valli, feeding coalas, wear Reed Krakof, raising parrots in Australia’s Kakadu National Park, wear Dries Van Noten.
