JIL SANDER@MILANO FASHION WEEK FW11-12


Jil Sander meets the expectation. Brilliant colours, egg shapes, floral print and stunning shoes. It's a strong woman with a strong femininity. An appealing show for an "under tone" Milan fashion week.

SOMETHING FROM MILAN FASHION WEEK FW11-12: GABRIELE COLANGELO AND MOSCHINO

Gabriele Colangelo. He's young, talented. Where a show without obstentation revealed a great collection. Precious materials used to decorate the clothes. Fur, coat, blazer, pants. Man style looks with an ultra feminine touch. Definied and tailored lines. A sofisticated collection. Chic.




Moschino. Ironic and provocative collection. Look inspired by the military rigor, revisited. 
So captivating, funny and glam..as always.

FALL WINTER 2011 FROM LONDON A BRILLIANT MEADHAM KIRCHHOFF

Today Milan Fashion week is started, but i can't overlook another great designer from the London runways, Meadham Kirchhoff. Tone on tone and multicolor layering games. The contrast between masculine and feminine. That's the irony of an extremely modern and contemporary styling. Irriverent, fresh and interesting image. Absolutely cool!!!

FALL WINTER 2011 I ALSO LOVED (A LOT) MARY KATRANTZOU

London. It's all about print and the star is Mary Katrantzou. Colors and shapes. Her print is snappy, real. The clothes comes to life. They're the 'real' show. Definitely exciting. Hypnotic collection. Perfection and class. Great success, lightness and style. A great artist.

FALL WINTER 2011 SHOWS .. who&what I LOVED!

Fall Winter 2011... New York has passed. That's who has left his mark.
Proenza Schouler. Femininity, elegance, color and prints. Again. The collection is dynamic and engaging. Impressive.





London Fashion Week. Pungent, ironic, irriverent. The stage of creativity. Emotions...
Antonio Berardi. Pure couture. Versatile and multifaceted. A collection "to wear". He declares: "I want everything to feel like, Oh my God, i want a piece!!!!".








Vivienne Westwood. Vivienne The Queen always excites me. Ironic, cheeky, funny. " Too much".
I love her.



Basso & Brooke. This print struck me. Cool.

PEPI'S WONDERLAND, LONDON.

"Pepi's is an idea. An idea that everything is possible".
Pepi's is a "wonderland"founded in 1994 by Carlos Gomez and Begona Alegria in the catacombs of Camden Market, London.
Pioneers of extensions using materials never used before such as wool, plastic, fibre optic filaments... they're differents from others hairdressers coz their mission is no profit and they're focused on the challenge to go further more and more were no one ever came.
Far from the "forced" fashion, totally uncommercial, they preferes alternative "windows"..because their creativity still unpolluted.
Pepi's crowd is a melting pot of people and characters. children, young, old, homeless, managers....
New images and new expression forms. Continous change. Constantly changing, perfectly expressed in what is their location: a mix of recycled furniture which is replaced over time with other recycled items.

THE ANTI-FASHION DESIGNER: ALAN HRANITELJ

Alan Hranitelj was born in Croazia. He's generally a fashion designer, but we can't describe him like that, because he's completely subversive and anti-fashion. He doesn't sell its clothes, he doesn't do collections and he doesn't follow the natural career of fashion designers. He's different, alternative, unique in his gender..he's got the "aurea of genius". The Alan style is totally "haute couture", through its creations you can feel his elegant sensibility. There's something magic and something absolutely theatrical. He mostly designs for drama, opera and film and is costume designers for the Cirque du Soleil.
