ASSERT YOURSELF WITH STAR WARS

10 November 2015

An event with the force behinf it

Star Wars is an intergenerational world that speaks to many. And for good reason! The famous saga has managed to mark the history of cinema with a scripts written by a masterful hand, and an extraordinary production still regarded as unique.

The release of the seventh episode is a major event that is making headlines and thrilling both the fans and the new followers alike. As proof, the second trailer for the film has become, in 24 hours, the most viewed video in the history of Youtube. There are currently 30.65 million views. And now, a few days before the release of the new film, analysts are adjusting their audience predictions upwards every day as the phenomenon grows unexpectedly larger and larger.

A WORLD THAT LIVES IN TUNE WITH THE STARS

The craze is such that the famous Galeries Lafayette showcase shop window displays - particularly admired at Christmas - this year feature a faithfully reproduced Star Wars decor. And there’s more! The lucky ones were able to attend an interstellar happening on the major boulevards, staging a parade of Stormtroopers and Jedi, all in a unique atmosphere combining music, choreography, stunts, light shows and special effects. What a delight for the thousands of fans in attendance for the event ...

In the same spirit, the Disney shop on the Champs Elysees has indulged itself in a galactic showcase featuring an army of stormtroopers.

So it's no surprise to see advertising trying to capture the world of the Star Wars saga! For example, the famous three stripes brand recently put out an ad campaign using a staggered staging, showing stars like Snoop Dogg, Daft Punk or David Beckham spending time alongside Han Solo, Chewbacca and Obi Wan Kenobi, and all this in the not altogether welcoming Cantina, the emblematic place of the Saga!

AN ICONIC UNIVERSE 

Iconic, that is the word that sums up perfectly the universe of that distant galaxy with its characters each more charismatic than the other, and space-ships constantly playing with the speed of light!

We remember Darth Vader either with anger or sadness, we say the name of Yoda with admiration, and we smile when we think of R2-D2. Remember the Millennium Falcon, too, with Han Solo on board, accompanied by the fabulous Chewbacca and his resounding cry!

Memories that we can now relive, with the announced release of a new trilogy and therefore a plot that will undoubtedly be just as great as the previous ones.

TO BE A FAN AND CHIC AT ALL TIMES

Let’s come back for a moment to our beautiful blue Earth and our daily business. As the workplace requires, it may happen that we are led to adopt a codified dress whose basis remains the shirt. Sometimes seen as a straitjacket, this item, usually accompanied by a suit and tie, has become a man’s second skin. But it’s becoming difficult to assert and express your personality only through the choice of colours.

This is why more and more men are observed to succumb to the charms of "the detail that changes everything," the enhancing detail: cufflinks, the perfect expression of masculine chic. Discreet, it brings out your tastes, your desires, your mood and your passions (provided that the sleeves of your jacket are well cut).

And a few days before the release of the seventh instalment of the saga, impatience is at its height. Thus, like the fervent supporters of football or Rugby, we just can’t wait to support the film’s release by wearing a t-shirt, cap, hat, or bracelet bearing the image of our hero! Rather difficult in a formal setting? No, not if there is a consistency between the chosen accessory and the elegance of the outfit.

And that’s where the Star Wars cufflinks come in! Both elegant, discreet and offbeat, they will allow you to assert your personality by showing good taste, humour, and yet also playing upon dandyesque codes. Whether you are on the side of the Force or its dark flip side, choose your cufflinks bearing the image of your favourite characters and objects.
