Zig Zag: Ottavio Missoni 1921-2013
Zig Zag by divadebbi
The fashion world said goodbye to one of the great icons of design, Ottavio Missoni, Patriarch of the Missoni fashion empire, he died at 92 this week. Ottavio and his bride Rosita, celebrated their 60th anniversary on May 1st.
A man of many talents, he was also an Olympic hurdler and competed in the 1948 games. Mr. Missoni was a master colourist and textile designer. His spectacular mixes of zigs, zags, stripes, dots and vibrant color strongly influenced fashion and were also highly regarded for their artistic merit.
In 1997, the Missoni's handed the reigns to their 3 children Vittorio, Angela and Luca. Their vigor and vision helped grow Missoni into a successful lifestyle brand, that includes Home, Hotels, car interiors and a blockbuster collaboration with Target stores last year.
Sadly, this past January, Vittorio Missoni, their eldest son, his wife, two passengers and two crew members disappeared in a plane over the islands near Venezuela. The plane wreckage was recovered, but not the bodies were never found.
Rest in Peace Ottavio and Vittorio. Your family has brought beauty and joy to this world and your legacy lives on.

The Trousseau
One of the lovely things about Polyvore, is the warmth, camaraderie and sisterhood that evolves among the Fashionista's who enjoy putting these sets together.
We often dedicate them to each other, as gifts for support and friendship. I created this set for my dear friend Lidia Solymosi. Lidia lives in Canada and works in the health care field, but I'm sure she was a designer in another life. Her exquisite sets have won her a staggering following of over 25,000 followers.
This June, a group of "Polypals" are gathering from places near and far in N.Y.C. for a few days. We will also have the opportunity to meet some of the staff from the Polyvore N.Y. office. It's going to fabulous to put the names and faces together with the talent we have gotten to know so well.
Polyvore selects "members" to interview for The Official Polyvore Blog almost every month. Lidia was recently chosen, which is an incredible honor. Here is a link to some of her favorite sets and her interview. I think she is a treasure!
