# Wearable Thonet Chairs Prêt-à -Thonet Buenos Aires Designs By Happy Hotelier | Published 2007-08-12 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wearable-thonet-chairs-pret-a-thonet References: [chairblog.eu](http://www.chairblog.eu/2007/08/12/wearable-chairs-pret-a-thonet/) & [pabloreinoso](http://www.pabloreinoso.com/) Argentinean sculptor and designer [Pablo Reinoso](http://www.pabloreinoso.com) has designed chairs of his own: the High Chair. But for me, as a real Thonet afficionado, and maybe for many others he, is more important as the sculptor of the Thoneteando series, or variations on old Thonet chair designs which he gives a twist. Until September 8, 2007 there is an exhibition of the Thoneteando series in Buenos Aires, in [Gallerie Ruth Benzacar](http://www.ruthbenzacar.com). From the Thoneteando series came the Prêt-à -Thonet idea. Prêt-à -Thonet is a metaphor for chairs you can wear or wearable chairs. For the first time they appeared on a catwalk as part of the 2007 Autumn / Winter fashion show of [David Delfin](http://www.davidelfin.com/detect.html) and stylist Malaguène. For the second time they will appear in the presentation of the Spring / Summer Fashion collection of Martin Churba, titled Tropico, on August 21, 2007 in Buenos Aires, Palacio del Correo Central, Samiento 151. Finally there is the LuThonetteries exposition in celebration of a 40 years celebration of a group of Lute players from August 16 - September 16, 2007.
