For the poster with the python boots, I bought a pair myself and love them. My question - how do you maintain them? Was considering saphir reptan as a “polish” but not sure due to the special finish on the boots.

Called Celine but they just recommended taking it to their store for after sales care, which seems excessive

Shoe trees for sure. Other than that, good question...

I do have that Saphir lotion, I rarely use it on my SLP python biker jacket.
But I don’t think I would apply on my Celine python, mainly the patented texture would be dimmed with polishing lotion. All you need is wearing them with care and wrapping the dust off after each use.

First off; just want to give Saphir a shoutout for being awesome. Second, I have seen a black python L01 floating around, do you perhaps have a different version I am unaware of? I always wanted to see a python rider in the "natural" python color.

Thanks for posting... how is that piece on person?? I like it but have a hard time envisioning it on body.

It is really a nice one. Great lamb with all functional zips design. One of the very rare real python jackets (only two straps though) made at SLP in Hedi’s era. The jacket runs very small, I need to size up and still feeling tight. Good with causal outfit or on top of light hoodie.

Video report from Loïc Prigent (show starts at 4:00) :




We can see a lot of models from different angles and in HD quality.

Prigent gives a lot of informations like the name of all the artists, and for example we learn that the embroideries on the cape at 7:26 required 1000 hours of work.

Oh, and we can see Hedi at the end... speaking with this Lisa.

Still too hot weather here for my creepers but can't wait to get them out soon. Fit is quite narrow compared to SLP sizes. My Jacnos have gotten lots of mileage already... they are just simply kick-ass. A big, 2 level, CELINE store will open up in my neighbor hood in September. Very excited about the grand opening event and birthday is comming...!

Those boots are so amazing. I'd be all over them if I could pull off the heel. I find the creepers strangely appealing as well.

On another note: does anyone have any notion as to what the future holds, in terms of new items popping up? I'm going to be in an area with a Celine store in mid-september, and was wondering if new stuff would be showing up by then.

I was in London and Milan and both stores are starting to get the FW trickling in... I would imagine there will be at least a reasonable selection by mid sept...
