In our lastest Q&A with designer Olima Atelier she mentioned that the one person she would love to dress dead or alive would be Luisa Casati. This sparked our interest. We love to be introduced to further in European fashion history. This woman was basically amazing.

Her life motto? ..."I want to be a living work of art"

After doing some research not only was she born into a life of luxury, it remained with her throughout her life, until the very end. She was buried wearing not only her black and leopardskin finery but also a pair of false eyelashes.
