全世界最时髦的兔子,每季都穿大牌时装。

Fifi Lapin—What Shall I Wear Today?
菲菲·拉宾——今天我该穿什么?

 Fifi Lapin is a fashion blogger and amazing artist. She lives and works in London. Her most famous creation is a fictional bunny dressed in the latest runway designs. And the bunny’s name is also Fifi Lapin (referred to as Fifi).
菲菲•拉宾是一个时尚博主以及一个令人惊叹的艺术家。她居住在伦敦也在那里工作。她最著名的创作作品是一只虚构的兔子,她穿着最新的时装设计。这只兔子的名字也是菲菲•拉宾(简称菲菲)。

Fifi has an unusual growth story. It’s rare for a bunny like her to be the only child in a family. Actually, when she was just one year old, all her 256 siblings suffered the tragic fate of a myxomatosis outbreak, and that’s why Fifi is incredibly spoilt by her wealthy parents who buy her everything and anything her heart desires. As an “haress” to her father’s fortune (which he made playing fast and loose with carrot and lettuce shares on the international stock market), she loves nothing better than spending her time shopping, browsing fashion magazines, and attending the opening of an envelope. She probably has the best wardrobe on the entire planet!
菲菲有一个不寻常的成长故事。很少有像她是在一个家庭中唯一的孩子的一只小“兔子”(注:兔子在西方是多产的象征)。事实上,在她才一岁的时候,她所有的256只兔子同伴因为多发性粘液瘤的爆发而遭受了悲惨的命运,而这就是菲菲被有钱的父母给宠坏的原因,他们会给她买任何她想要的东西。作为她父亲的财产的唯一继承人 (这些财富都是他玩弄国际股票市场上胡萝卜和生菜股份的成果),她最喜欢的事情莫过于花大把时间购物、 浏览时尚杂志,以及出席各大秀场开幕式。她很可能已经拥有整个地球上的最佳衣柜!

Fifi Lapin has loved to draw rabbits since she could pick up a pencil, but it was not until recent years when she came up with the idea of Fifi. Fifi’s style is quite similar to those she’d drawn in the past, but her sense of fashion is a whole new thing. When she drew the first picture of Fifi, the little bunny was wearing a lovely red duffel coat with big buttons. As she saw her looking so cute, she just wanted to draw her more. So, she picked up her last copy of Vogue (《时尚》杂志), and the rest is history.
菲菲•拉宾从她会拿笔开始就喜欢画兔子,但是直到近几年,她才想到菲菲这个作品。菲菲的风格跟她以往画的兔子很相似,但是她的时尚感却是全新的。当她画菲菲的第一张图时,这只小兔子穿着一件有着大纽扣的可爱的红色粗呢上衣。她一看觉得它的外形很可爱,就想多画一些。于是,她收拾起最后一份复制的《时尚》杂志,而剩下的都成为历史。

Fifi Lapin has collaborated with many big brands. The bunny’s image has also appeared on jewelry, scarves, stationary, etc. When asked if she has any plans or dreams to extend her work, such as a film, Fifi Lapin answered, “I have so many creative ideas, but putting them into practice isn’t always easy. I hope that in the future Fifi Lapin would be able to design and even produce her own collections. She’s a very stylish bunny and I think there would definitely be a market for her ideas. ”
菲菲•拉宾和许多大品牌合作过。这只小兔子的形象还出现在珠宝,围巾,文具等上。当被问及到是否有计划或者有愿望扩展自己的工作,比如说电影时,菲菲•拉宾说:“我有许多的创作主意,但是要将它们投入到实际中并不是那么容易的。我希望在未来,菲菲•拉宾能够自己设计甚至生产自己的作品。她是一只非常时髦的兔子,我相信她一定会有一个点子市场的。”
