Viktor & Rolf and dressing their model on stage is something we’ve seen before. They have dressed up Maggie Rizer to a Russian Matroesjka-like doll wearing 70 kilos of fabric back in 1999 for their Fall/Winter Couture show, and now they’ve peeled of Kristen McMenamy like an onion from the 22 layered outfits she was wearing (an online newspaper described her metamorphosis going from tent to Yeti to playboy bunny!) while the other models undisturbedly made their walk and put on one of her layers, to reverse the whole thing afterwards and dress Kristen up again.
Tag: Paris Fashion Week
Unfortunately we’re not in Paris for Fashionweek at the moment, but it’s definitely our goal for next season. Meanwhile we check what’s going on from behind our little laptops. Hereby a short summary and our opinions on what we’ve seen until now…
Balmain: what’s not to love? Christophe Decarnin presented his autumn-winter collection 2010 during the Paris Fashion Week this week. And we love the dress with laces!
The fashion show of our favorite Dutch designer duo Viktor & Rolf is planned for this Saturday. And there’ll be a special guest.
We loved the latest collection of Viktor & Rolf. Especially the cut out dresses in pink and blue. It really made us think of our Dutch ‘gatenkaas’ (translate: cheese with big holes in it, so digitalicious!). Now on the cover of Dazed & Confused: Magdalena Frackowiak in one of those lovely dresses. We like!
If your idea of staying in for the weekend (we are because it’s snowing and freezing outside!), is watching fashion-related DVD’s, reading magazines and books about fashion and strolling around YouTube looking for ‘fashionable vids’, then welcome to the club.
Is it made of recycled wood? Probably. Because this ‘wooden’ shoulderbag is from eco-friendly designer Stella McCartney, and it featured in her S/S’010 show.
Wether it’s gonna be one of next season’s It-bags or not, the usability is questionable. Would you dare to put your keys or mobile phone in it? I woudn’t. You might loose them between the slits!
How we wish we could be in Paris right now! One of our favourite fashion magazines, Vogue, exposes a century of fashion aestethics captured by the world’s biggest photographers; David Hockney, Man Ray, Guy Bourdin, Helmut Newton, Bruce Weber, Mario Testino (my hero) to name some of them.
