LOREDANA GROZA SE IMBRACA “A ! U R E A”

Dupa numai doua luni de la inaugurare, vedetele care apreciaza stilul vintage si combinatiile insolite nou-vechi, au un punct de atractie in lista de shopping: boutique-ul cu aroma de prajituri de casa si acorduri jazzy din centrul vechi, Atelier Aiurea.

Atelier Aiurea a avut inaugurarea oficiala in seara de 17 iunie, in compania diafanelor rochii de vara, pantofilor aiuriti, accesoriilor originale si a invitatilor speciali, cei care apreciaza moda anilor de altadata reinterpretata pe scena modernismului actual.

Loredana Groza, ea insasi o impatimita a hainelor vintage, a fost cucerita inca de la deschidere de aerul boem al spatiului. “Atelier A ! U R E A imi aduce aminte de West Village din New York. De acolo imi cumpar si eu haine vintage. Cristina, proprietara boutique-ului A ! U R E A, a reusit sa aduca un aer proaspat in centrul vechi al Bucurestiului. E foarte potrivit si ca produse si ca design! E cel mai misto magazin vintage din Bucuresti! Au piese pretioase: sunt haine si modele care nu se mai fac. Imi plac hainele vintage, pentru ca le combin cu altele si rezultatul e fantastic.” Loredana Groza.

Laura Cosoi, Mihaela Zeta, Andreea Gramosteanu, Dana Rogoz, Adela Popescu, Ana Ularu, Dragos Bucurenci, Catalin Josan, si alte vedete au trecut pragul si au cumparat aiurea, atrasi de delicatetea modei readuse pe podiumul urban.

Printre semnaturile de designeri celebri, cautatoarele de comori ascunse pot descoperi combinatii si tinute surprinzator de contemporane, cum ar fi pantofii de serie transformati in unicat chiar de boutique-ul aiurit sau colectii ale tinerilor designeri romani precum Diana Bobar, La Chatterie etc. Colectia de accesorii special create pentru boutique se revarsa ofertant la jabourile si epoletii deja renumiti ai Laviniei Voicu, cerceii minimalisti bicolor ai Andreea Mogu, a touch of vintage by Veronica Biliboc, palarii si bentite indraznete create de Fandacsia, cercei veseli by Happy Earings, bratari 60's si saluri crosetate by Alexandra Nita, coliere masive by Ecaterina Colasiz, flori tridimensionate de pictorul Daniel Relenschi, colaje de pus la gat cu demnitate de Alexandra Gatin

Plimbarea printre rafturile ademenitoare impreuna cu proprietara boutique-lui, Cristina Ivan, devine o experienta de redescoperire a stilului propriu, plecand mai bogat fie cu un sfat vestimentar de asortare sau accesorizare, fie cu o stare de spirit si un zambet aiurea.

Pentru ca aici melanjul de nou si vechi este reprezentativ, noua tendinta de promovare prin retelele de socializare atrage la fel de aiurea. Profilul de pe Facebook incanta zilnic prin noile tinute cu pret si eticheta, fiind la moda rezervarile online ale pieselor care vor fi cumparate ulterior din Str. Covaci 19 colt cu Sepcari.

Si cum vara si-a luat deja zborul, iar toamna si-a asternut brusc racoarea este timpul si pentru boutique-ul nostru aiurit sa isi schimbe vesmintele, intampinand cum se cuvine vremea de afara cu sacouri cambrate, in culori ce se potrivesc intocmai cu noul décor, rochite nostalgice care adie spre apusuri tomnatice, pantofi aiuriti si nerabdatori sa calce pe covorul asternut de frunze uscate si multe podoabe atent alese pentru a va reda un aer romantic, cum toate simtim in aceasta perioada a anului .

Ceea ce ramane neschimbat la Atelier sunt prajiturele casei, parca mai aromate acum … acordurile fine ale funky jazz-ului si caldura cu care va intampinam aici, pentru a petrecere momente impreuna de escapada in arta si moda ...pierzandu-ne in amintirile toamnei anilor ’20, ’30 , ’50 , ‘60 ...si ale celor ce-au urmat sa vina .

Va asteptam spre a descoperi impreuna prima toamna A!UREA numai pe Covaci 19 colt cu Sepcari.

Noul boutique, Atelier Aiurea, lumineaza promenada

Atelier Aiurea, noul boutique din zona boema a Bucurestilor de altadata, si-a aprins firma luminoasa pentru prima oara in data de 27 aprilie, ora 11 a.m, pe Str. Covaci nr. 19 (colt cu Str. Sepcari). Pana acum plimbarile prin centrul vechi insemnau doar restaurante, cafenele si terase, ceea ce ii lipsea pentru a aduce parfumul cartierului parisian fiind locurile pentru impatimitele modei. Acum Atelier Aiurea deschide drumul sesiunilor de shopping de placere. Atelier Aiurea nu este un simplu magazin de haine si accesorii vintage, este un spatiu in care extravaganta westwoodiana, eleganta coco si rafinamentul eternei Audrey se imbina spectaculos si totodata firesc cu noile tendinte ale unor creatori autohtoni in ascensiune. Aici este locul in care noul este dorit, vechiul apreciat, bizarul intrigant, iar pretul acestora unul just, cum numai o fashionista poate face diferenta dintre o piesa veritabila al unui creator celebru si o haina frumoasa prêt-a-porter. De la amenajarea vitrinei pana la designul interior, totul a fost gandit ca un spatiu de inspiratie ce poate conduce la redefinirea stilului propriu prin melanjul de stiluri vestimentare, accesorii si decoratiuni interioare. Iar pentru ca stilul evolueaza, magazinul se reinventeaza si el, rafturile sale schimbandu-si semnaturile de designer in mod constant.
Si pentru placerea de a fi creativ vine natural dupa orele de munca, spatiul este deschis pana seara tarziu, iar de vineri pana duminica programul este prelungit pana la ora 24.00. Magazinul va tine pasul cu toate evenimentele culturale ale orasului, astfel ca o data cu noaptea muzeelor sau zilele orasului, programul de functionare va fi similar acestora.
Nouveau. Ancient. Bizarre. Beau... Atelier Aiurea

Aiurea Atelier out on... Lipscani!

Well... yes, it's been a while since we've been active around here. One of the reasons, besides trying to keep up with all the changes in our lives, was that we wanted our comeback worth your patience... :)

So.. after long gatherings, sleepless nights and serious negotiations :) Cristina decided to have her own 'aiurea' place where the vintage atmosphere of a funky boutique will be rounded with lots of retro chic clothes including atypical shoes and patterned handbags having, of course, the Aiuristic by Cristina Ivan touch :) There will be also a few lamps signed by the same said brand, to be hanged here and there, all ready to be snapped up and delivered right in your cozy rooms!

Atelier Aiurea will be situated behind Manuc's Inn, in 19 Covaci Street and will be part of a new restored 19th century building of about 500 sqm, placed on the crossroads with the street of another old craftsman, Sepcari which connects I.C. Bratianu Boulevard with Franceza Street. Only that we are bound to wait until March 2010 when the restauration will be completed.

But until then, we will concentrate our creativity on a 20's movie scene window, preserving our energy on hunting vintage fairs in all of the Europe! We'll start with Rotterdam from where we'll buy also a caravan :)

That being said, hope you will stay tuned for news and details of the funky opening, where delicious bio sandwiches & already famous basil punch prepared by the one and only, Mr Julien de Rodos will sense you the path throughout the cozy room, publicly named Atelier Aiurea store! :)

ECOol, people! :)














25 december 2008


Holidays are coming… ECO spirit comes to life…

Yes… holidays are coming, as a dear jingle once said, and since ECO is so cool these days, we thought Eco could also be the new Christmas decoration trend. EcoPeople magazine invited us, amongst other local artists, to put out some brand new ideas for Christmas. So they sent us a tree and we resent it back tuned in our shoe-ish style :) Curious what we came up with? Hmmm…well, shoes of course! We cut out some pictures of shoes from old glossy magazines and transformed them into tree decorations, used corks on strings as tinsels, damaged light bulb as the tree’s crown…and that’s about it. Simple enough? Well it is! and yes, you can do it at home, totally safe and eco. Your Christmas can be different this year…if you choose to recycle. The tree will be displayed soon in Eco people magazine and probably somewhere to be seen live. Information on location will be provided soon … so bear with us for a while and maybe we’ll meet there.


Don’t let the consumer era consume you, recycle… for an easy New Year!

V for vintage - preamble


"Şerbet, dulceţă de trandafiri, eşarfă cu buline, rochie de dantelă, viniluri, rock&roll, Cadillac...

Toate acestea au fost echivalentul a ceea ce astăzi înseamnă ipod, performance, blugi skinny, balerini, şi cam tot ce este considerat ca fiind foarte cool, fashionable şi actual. Acum ni se par passe, dar suspinăm cu nostalgie şi admiraţie când, pe stradă, o doamnă foarte cochetă n-a ţinut pasul cu vremurile noastre, ci cu ale ei, şi ne arată cam care era trendul acum 30-40 de ani.
Atunci oamenii îşi scriau impresiile în carneţele, pe foi parfumate, acum, totul se întâmplă pe blog [...]

Cristina, deţinătoarea proiectului „Naive Design” a lansat în primăvara acestui an, împreună cu două prietene bune, linia de pantofi adorabili Aiurea. „Proiectul «Aiuristic by Cristina Ivan» continuă cumva pa­siu­nea mea pentru lucrurile care ascund o poveste, care te ajută să îţi defineşti personalitatea, ba mai mult, te completează. Fără prea multe dureri de cap, îţi poţi găsi în casa mea cu fason piesa favorită (fie că este o geantă recondiţionată sau o rochie veche uitată în cel mai îndepărtat colţ al dulapului).

Printre aceste pie­se vestimentare recondiţionate se găseşte, aşteptând timid, în­ceputul unei alte vieţi, o mie şi una de alte lucruşoare «aiuristice» gata de a fi purtate.] [...]

We were Target-ed!

Well.. it is not our first appearance in press, but it's surely our first ampleness one :)) Not to speak about the seriousness and business approach of the magazine! Could it be that serious?! :) We won't questioning ourselves anymore, as the reporter put them all to us :D

We had a great time with Sabrina, the photo shooting was oh so fun - we would like to thank Oana from Ummagumma for being such a nice host - and yes we ended up on a terrace talking about shoes, friendship, projects and experiences . The result: a 3 whole pages interview for the Trends column, New Business section.

Yep, it was all about Grandma's...day

Yes dear friends, we attended the 4th and greatest edition of Grandmas's Backyard so far. It was last Sunday at the Capitol Summer Theatre and celebrated both Gabriela's birthday and the summer big sales party.



The atmosphere was lovely as always as we were among old friends, artists, good music (thanks to DJ Lucas for making us dance in the middle of the day).

We had some furry companions during the day :))

The space was filled with artists as well as fashion and bargain addicts....we wellcomed them all




We were there with Aiurea Shoes.....but this time Cristina could not join us so we brought out her very cool pictures...





So anyway, after a very long and hot day, after meeting new artists, seeing the old B'est Fest friends, kissing Gabriela and wishing her the best and eating some of the surprise birthday cake...we packed our stuff said good bye and wished the next MGB won't keep us waiting so long:).

Just to prove you all we had a blast here are a few more pictures..



Keep it real... keep it Aiurea
