Styledrops -- Italian Fashion, With Passion

Filed under: Apparel, Handbags, Shoes, Children, Men's Style

While researching something for Luxist, I came across Styledrops, a fashion site for men, women and children that sells upscale Italian designer goods. For women, select from shoes, handbags, clothing and accessories. Same for men, minus the handbags. Kids get shoes and clothing. The site boasts "the best price you have ever seen on the Internet!"

A sampling of brands: Prada, Gucci, Fendi, Tod's, Hogan, Dior, Fratelli Rossetti, Ferragamo, Cesare Paciotti, Alexander McQueen, John Galliano and Frankie Morello. Check here for the whole list for women, men and kids. Choose by type of item, designer or price.

I haven't purchased from the site so I can't vouch for service or quality, but the site itself is easy to navigate and has some very high-end items.

What's in a Name?

by Nicole Weston (RSS feed) —

Yeslam Bin Laden, half brother to Osama, dreams of turning his brand into one that carries that same type of international clout as Channel, Dior and Prada one day, though his name is not the least of the obstacles he will have to overcome. Based in Geneva, Switzerland and, according to the Times, cleared of any involvement in 9/11 by the Swiss government, he currently sells a line of relatively upscale goods, including handbags, belts and perfumes in Geneva and parts of the Middle East. Watches are a new addition to his line for spring, but it appears that perfumes are his only online offerings.
