Markus Lupfer Presentation SS17…Eversholt Street, London

“Around the whole world People are the same everywhere: They are different.” – Paul Hartal

Markus Lupfer SS2017 collection is a celebration of individuality. There are no rules. Nylon raincoats wrapped around feminine ruffle dresses, jewelled sneakers, hand-drawn bunny and cats for prints and apple shaped sunglasses celebrate fun, liberty and personality. A fabulous set design, with flowers breaking free from the hard floor, adds to the atmosphere. Congratulations Markus to a fabulous collection!!!

Vladimir Karaleev SS17…Kronprinzenpalais, Berlin

Here some pictures from the Vladimir Karaleev presentation at the Berliner Mode Salon. I just love his sensitivity for fabrics and his ability to be feminine and minimalist at the same time. He really is the master of drapes – draping so pure, minimal and gentle yet edgy and constructed.

Thank you Vladimir for designing close to your heart!

Augustin Teboul SS17…Kronprinzenpalais, Berlin

Here some photos from the gorgeous Augustin Teboul Spring/Summer 2017 show, shown part of the Berliner Mode Salon at the Kronprinzenpalais Unter den Linden. A glamorous, glittering, yet beautiful crafted collection, with filigree textures, lace, heavy Punk inspired studding and gorgeous embellishment. Pop-Punk-Couture meets delicate beauty – all supported by the live set of Walls & Birds.

Congratulations Annelie and Odély!!

 

Tiger Of Sweden SS17…Marylebone Road, London

17th century Baroque decadence and the inspiration of Versailles meets Scandinavian simplicity, creating an interesting play at the SS17 Tiger Of Sweden menswear collection shown at the Ambika P3 Gallery during the London Collections Men. Wild and playful prints and weaves are merged with sharp tailoring, while layered vests add an interesting play with proportions. Congratulations Tiger Of Sweden to a collection full of gorgeous surprises!

The Japanese Wedding…Meiji Jingu, Tokyo

I was thinking, what street style could I possibly post after the National Gallery images and somehow Japan and its culture came to mind. I really do want to go back to this intriguing country.

Here some pictures from my archive; that time when I went to the Meiji Shrine in Tokyo and just enjoyed watching this gorgeous wedding.

Marques Almeida SS16…Essex Road, London

 

Every season I am really looking forward to what Marques ‘ Almeida will surprise us with. While staying very true to their 90’s aesthetics, there is always a fresh feel or fabric introduced into the usual, yet never predictable, frayed denim mix. This season we see our grunge heroes bringing soft femininity to the table. A romantic, gothic, grunge dream I just want to be part of.

Congratulations Marta, Paulo and the whole Marques ‘ Almeida team. We love what you do!
