And the evidence that classical and sexy mix

Before that be his television puppet parody, Alain Delon was a solar player. It too often forgotten. Finally less these days, as he prepared his insolent youth image to water wild, mythical - and impassable - male Dior fragrance. A set of icons Rather a consistency of style: Delon in the 1960s asked once and for all codes of carrying French elegance, with in absolute manifest the swimming pool. Forty years after, the style which he defined with Maurice Ronet - double its dark - did not take a ride. It is sharp simple, oscillating between nonchalance (body and contents) and violence (feelings and colours). The result Seduction severely civilized and devilishly contemporary State. And the evidence that classical and sexy mix.

The strength of this style is its hinge on a few pieces that summer - that fall well - are the joy of the catwalks. In Majesty, the blouse. Claire, necessarily clear, can even the attempt such as Alain Delon - in a very light ground of tiles to ultrafine lines. It will go pick Kris Van Assche himself or Dior Homme - in both cases, Kris is happy. History of not wasting unnecessary time, it is always in Dior man that you take the sharp black suit, fine any as black tie and white shirt small collar (black if it plays to Maurice Ronet) which constitute with sunglasses (2009, in Ferragamo option), a scene, the formal look (but not too much) time(, the shirt is unfastened) of Delon. In casual version, the hero of the film the are open... to the navel. Dare if one has more than thirty-four years (the age of Delon in 1969), that it is not intended to be a global symbol sex or that is not a Japanese (who dreams, of the admission of the star, to be Alain Delon, it is well known). Resist the charms of the smoking flax (in Eden Park or Victoire man) as Maurice Ronet, in place of the broadcloth does not render the pectoral and abdominal exhibition more easy.

Side legs on the other hand, it reveals nothing and it adds not: forget the orange temptations of Ronet and it sticks to the good old chino - K1 of Dokers, for example - in ending the silhouette either by a buckskin - at Tod's - loafers black sneakers. Against all odds, this last option is the most fashion that is: the sandal of the foot of the Kings of Aragon has much parade this summer, including Hermes. Recession mood requires, is also the choose simply basque.

The only time where the calf shows is by the swimming pool. It is all the more dangerous view: Alain Delon can afford to - very - print sections in the colours shootées Sun... but you Good advice: do not bathe. At all. Close to the water zone, prefer the night look of Alain: washed jean - do nothing buy, use one of its own, really worn - and good large pull on the skin. There no hesitation, there is confidence, in Hermes, within the meaning of Veronique Nichanian mesh is not unparalleled to oversize sport Wool Sweater neck irregular coasts. Attention, in an excess of mimicry, to not finish the evening in surreptitiously drowning your best friend. This unnecessarily ruin a style... - G.D.

You do not know what put in your suitcase to reach friends on the Mediterranean coast Review the pool of Jacques Deray, film shot 40 years ago in a villa on the heights of Saint-Tropez. Romy Schneider and Jane Birkin are ultra-contemporaine elegance. Dresses and trousers may have been created for the summer 2009. The two women are mainly of an extreme sensuality. Without dizzying neckline (unlike men..., read above), or stilettos, they stir up the rivalry between Delon and Ronet which led to the tragedy.

To wake up the Jane Birkin in you, focus girl clothing: the mini skirt folded in Vichy and the ballerinas black, so wise; the tunic to the hook with a straw basket, a priori innocent; the white collar T-shirt round sleeve ball so childish. Another option for a style as perverse and naive: the narrow shirt printed small colourful flowers that you buy, even today, among Cacharel and nowhere else. There is no more sexy, provided it is as flat as a boy and not having spent twenty years! With an English accent, it is even more alarming.

Ah, like Romy Schneider... Also feline that strange. Magnetic. Incandescent beauty. To be as sexy as it, enough of a narrow white jean, a shirt fitted Jersey silk spotted of a gold medal fishing Pucci dress in chiffon printed psychedelics Need to wear a white vintage dress Déclaration Saint Laurent or Cardin, in fault of silk collar amount to plunging neckline in the back Not only. The mad sensuality of Romy Schneider is his attitude. Proud, it has a solar dimension. An indefinable blend of Ivy luxury and righteous purity.

The centerpiece of the film, one on which all your sex quotient will measure themselves: the swimsuit. The sizzling atmosphere that emerges is much of this small piece of tissue. Without strass, without knots, without draping sophisticated. Forms, too minimal to be innocent, are to emphasize the texture of skin, water flowing on a hip. The must The black two-piece composed of a pants or micro, nor too fine, with a bra triangle scarf. It attracts the embrace... Unwound by a sublime Delon lying by the pool, it is at the centre of one of the mythical scenes of French cinema. -S.M.
