Line Vautrin is one of those archetypally French personalities - others are Cocteau, Piaf and Christian Berard - whose talents are compounded of dreams, poetry, images from the past and a mischievous sense of fun. Since she was five years old, she has, like an alchemist turning base metals into gold, transformed humble materials into miracles of beauty and imagination. Even the war-time scarcity of metals did not stop her; they made invention all the more important. Her career took off from a shop in the Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honore and a Louis XV hotel in the Marais, housing her workshops, showroom and apartment, which became a veritable Aladdin's cave.
Like Schiaparelli, Vautrin pioneered designer buttons; but hers were part of a range of jewelry that is utterly unlike anyone else's: made in a variety of substances from gilt bronze to resin, and in forms inspired by ancient Greek coins, medieval folk art, animals, word-games, or, in her extraordinary abstract ensembles, the material itself. From jewelry, her love of handiwork and inventing shapes led her on to sculpture, and finally to an altogether new art-form which she calls "pellimorphoses."
But Line Vautrin is much more than the sum of her inventions: she is a part of history, and her work is sought by museums. This tribute is the first to fix the shifting colors of her life in permanent form. Vautrin herself has contributed a witty autobiographical sketch, and supervised the layout of her pieces in the color plates, while Patrick Mauries supplies a knowledgeable assessment of her work.
An incarnation of the ideal Parisienne, Line Vautrin has been fashioning whimsical, charming objects for decades. Now a new audience has the chance to enter her enchanted world.

Shine bright!
Color: Golden
Shimmer is brilliant. It stays on longer if you add lotion to "seal" it in place. Small enough that it am not afraid it will hurt my eye if some gets in. Bonus that it has a refill. Bottle is super cute and glass.

So excited for results, feels like it’s working!
Size: Medium, Unit Count: 4
First time trying them right now as delivered today. Originally thought was supposed to wear all night but glad to find out 30 minutes just because my dog sleeps on my feet over my sheets! These silicone socks feel great and I trim my toe nails short enough they seem very durable and unlikely to rip like the pic review shows. I am confident my feet and heels will much smoother after first time wearing! I do have acrylic nails so I will be careful Putting the silicone socks on and off. Just as easy as the video the spread the lotion inside the socks and rub it around, mess free!!

Actually, better than I expected!
Size: Medium, Unit Count: 4
These are better than what I was expecting based on the reviews. I do put them on carefully because someone said you can’t tear them so I’m careful putting them on, but they almost don’t feel like you’re wearing anything as long as you don’t put them too tight on your toes. I can put lotion on my feet and I know it has to soak in because there’s no place else for it to go like socks or my bed.

So so...
Size: Medium, Unit Count: 2
They do what they advertised. You can NOT walk in them you will stretch them and pop a hole in them. You cannot sleep in them unless your going to wear larger cotton socks with them to keep them in place. They are easy to wash and dry which is nice. I will need to buy another pair. Great if your gonna watch a movie or binge TV in.
