The Costumes That Made Them Stars
Tirelli's collaborations with leading Italian and foreign costume designers have had a profound influence on the style of modern cinema, and an exhibit in Italy offers them for appreciation and reminiscence.

I began drawing as a young child, but it wasn't until a few years ago when I decided to practice everyday, that I started getting better.I would draw some days for 15 hours straight till my hands were swollen shut.
When I was 13, I started my own clothing company and ran it with the help of my friend till I was was in college.
I studied Photography at Cal Poly SLO, and then later studied Fashion Design at the Academy of Art in San Francisco.
Danny says: I love collaborating with other artist. I'm currently working on a few collaboration art projects. I hope to do a few more before the year ends.

Annecy, Venice of Savoie
Annecy, Venice of SavoieI fell in love and had to share its magic with you..
totally inspires..
The Thiou Canal is the river crossing Annecy that exudes such charm,it brings Venice to mind as you stroll along its banks.
Annecy is located between Geneva and Chambéry
onjour! Annecy, the "Venice of Savoie".
The origins of this charming town in the department of Haute-Savoie date back to 3000 B.C.
Annecy and its region draw tourists all summer or winter long, with incomparable charm, an exceptional amount of sunshine, and hundreds of miles of slopes to please the avid skier.
Annecy: Venice of Savoie
The Cleanest Lake in Europe
The lake of Annecy, framed by mountains, appeared 18,000 years ago and covers 10.5 square miles, with an average depth of 135 ft.
Today, it is one of the cleanest lakes in the world and home to a wide range of wildlife which never ceases to delight the amateur fishermen.
Today, the lake receives only rain and spring water, and the inhabitants of Annecy are happy to drink it (after a simple anti-bacteriological treatment).
The purification of the lake and the protection of it against any type of pollution have been a remarkable success, and are cited as examples all over the world.
If you are lucky enough to be in Annecy the first weekend of August, you will be able to attend the gorgeous fireworks display organized every year to celebrate the lake.
A visit is a must ;-)
