The autumn-winter 2010 has come, and retro is mixed with the modern in an exquisite combination to rescue the past. The trend for this season are the extreme shapes, broad shoulders, tight waists, layer upon layer and the grunge style that mar- ked a whole generation. For some designers, the inten- tion is to recall the time of the post war with crocodile skins, fabrics and accessories tweed sty le influence but very masculine and refined classical style.

Sí, hay una ciudad en el planeta que repre- sente idóneamente la idea de convivencia y tranquilidad en urbanidad: Ginebra. Delimi- tada por dos apacibles ríos, esta bella metrópoli es la capital de Suiza, y se considera la localidad más cosmopolita de este país. Curiosamente, se le llama también la ciudad “más pequeña del mundo”, aunque es la más grande dentro de territorio suizo después de Zürich.
