AFW BACKSTAGE: DENNIS DIEM

When the runway lights were dimmed, i made my way backstage to see the amazing garments up-close and personal, made me fall even more in love with the new Dennis Diem collection then when i experienced it just minutes ago. SILK GOWNS, BEAUTIFUL COLOURS AND TO-DIE-FOR SHOES....HEAVEN !!!
THE DREAM DRESS
All the colours i didn't show you during my runway report about this fashion show, Burgundy and a nice deep shaded purple. Also spotted backstage: actress Victoria Koblenko, having fun and posing with models, check her heels: that's got to get some R.E.S.P.E.C.T 

P.S. i would just love to wear that short Burgundy dress to my Paris fashion week trip....PICTURE PERFECT !!!

Amsterdam Fashion Week: Dennis Diem


One of the most beautiful (and my personal favorite) collection during Amsterdam Fashion Week was by Dennis Diem. He took us back to the civil-war of America with wounded soldiers, a battlefield background and torn Scarlett O'Hara models, this all with the sound of Marilyn Manson....I GOT A FASHIONGASM !!!

Amsterdam Fashion Week: Sjaak Hullekes

The most energetic runway show during the Amsterdam fashion week was the men's collection from Sjaak Hullekes, the first model came running down the catwalk followed by #2 and #3 then a old-timer appeared and 2 models stepped out of it, later-on one other stopped mid-way and peeled a banana....MAD MEN I SAY!!! INSPIRATION: the rise of the fabric industry in the early years of the last century.
The designer himself: SJAAK HULLEKES !!!

AFTER WINTER MUST COME FALL

Let me tell you something funny....In my opinion, i think that the PRE-fall 2013 designer presentations look way better then the "regular" fashion shows (don't get me wrong, it's the show that counts). It seems that the PRE collections get way more attention and publicity from buyers, media, bloggers and other fashionistas now-a-days....ME INCLUDED !!!

One of my favorite PRE-FALL 2013 collection up till now....BALMAIN, inspiration: DIANA VREELAND
RED, GOLD AND BLACK WITH SOME AMAZING BOOTS AND EARRINGS....WHERE'S THE CASH REGISTER? I NEED THIS GIFT-WRAPPED !!!

THE MUGLER BLUES


It's mid winter. Christmas is behind us, a new year has started and i got the blues, the blues as in my favorite colour of the first MUGLER bag collection. Nicola Formichetti created an amazing Delicious bag collection for the upcoming spring that is high on my wish/dream/must-have/can't afford list....So until i actually get one of these beauties in my hands, i will have these pictures to keep me warm.


But wait there is more: after the launch of this first Mugler bag collection mister Formichetti decided that there could be room for an other surprise So he dipt some bags into his NICOPANDA drawings....TAADAA a treasured limited edition has been born (twice)
.
P.S the bags come in other colours and prints as well ;) ENJOY !!!
