KENZO GOT TALENT

KENZO got themselves a new duo as creative directors: HUMBERTO LEON & CAROL LIM, and they are doing an amazing job....The fall 2012 collection from this French fashion house is one of the most exiting ones out-there in my opinion. The colours, fabrics and prints are really fun to wear and brings this fashion brand back to 21st century.

BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE....KENZO also collaborated with street-style brand NEW ERA for some really cool caps, in 4 spot-on colours. even i (who's not street) have one of each colour on my wish list.
And then there's that other collaboration with KENZO but this time it's with that other street-style giant: VANS. and again there is one pair sticking on my mind....THAT LOVELY PURPLE PRINT, yum yum.

IT SEEMS LIKE KENZO REALLY GOT THEMSELVES SOME GREAT NEW TALENT, and they almost made me forget about Antonio Marras who went before them as creative director.
A NEW DUO WITH STAR QUALITY.

JAN BOELO s/s 2013

It's time for some real fashion ROCK & ROLL, date: Friday the 13Th 2012, place to be: AMSTERDAM FASHION WEEK, wearing: a neon orange pencil-skirt by H&M a white GUCCI tank-top with my beloved black ALEXANDER WANG sweater, gold-plated CHLOE sandals a clear plexi necklace with the same neon orange ribbon also from H&M and my VIKTOR & ROLF "HYPENOTIZE ME" clutch.....OK enough about me, let's talk fashion: THIS WAS ONE AMAZING SHOW.

It started with a little clip starring model Valentijn smashing-up a car with an baseball-bat (loved that ;) then music from Marilyn Manson pierced our ears (loved that even more) and when i saw the first models walking-out i knew that i had to have the whole collection....the models rocked that runway in leather pants and skirts with some heavy chains, lovely shirts and blazers but the lace dresses at the end were absolutely THA BOMB !!!












The overall look seems to be basic BUT these are the basics I WANNA WEAR (if i only could wear one of these outfits for real during the up-coming Paris fashion week, that would be a dream)....JOB WELL DONE DEAR JAN BOELO DRENTH !!!

P.S thanks Natascha at PRBB for the lovely invite ones again :)
