Joline Jolink Catwalk Fashion Show ss2011

Joline Jolink is one of the few Dutch designers who is working silently and serious at her oeuvre. She’s still developing, but her style is already visible and consistent. She sells mainly in the Netherlands (12 shops and a webshop) and probably soon in Belgium. It’s been a while since Joline Jolink  showed a collection to an audience, but yesterday she presented her spring summer-2011 collection to buyers and a small selection of editors. It was a very grown up, elegant and sporty collection. For the first time Joline Jolink presented some leather accessories, two small bags worn at the hip and a big bag inspired by oldfashioned schoolbags.

The designer is fascinated by strong women, their lives, way of dressing, way of thinking. And it always makes an interesting collection. For next spring it was Katharine Hepburn that inspired Joline Jolink. Especially her sporty/elegant way of dressing and her preference for menswear tickled the designer.

The result is a well balanced collection full of renewed classics, like the men’s shirt, the pleated trousers, the suit and the shirtdress. Jolink choose basic colors, like beige, marine, black, white and mustard. The only print was a wrinkled navy/beige striped jersey. eyecatchers were a soft, halterneck suit, a big poncho and a beige-colored silk suit. The flowing silhouet, the modern classics with a clean, sporty twist and the eclectic mix made it to a strong collection.

Yesterday Sandwich presented it’s summer collection for next year. The fashion brand, which was founded 28 years ago, gave an energetic show with lots of good-looking outfits.

The collection was divided in different themes like Ocean Breeze, Raw Chic and Contradictions. This was visible through pants with different silhouettes; from leggings to treggings to trousers with a low crotch.

Sandwich showed some strong blouses, soft cardigans and diverse jackets like motorjackets, parkas and trench-coats. Every outfit was completed with the right accessories like a nice necklace, belt or soft scarf.

The color-palette was soft, ranging from white to beige to light gray and brown, with a splash of yellow and pink every now and then.

It was a vibrant show and all clothes looked super comfortable. So whether the Sandwich lady wants to go for lunch with a friend, bring her kids to school or crash a party, for every occasion there was an appropriate look in this collection.

AIFW Streethearts Award #5

This is it! It’s goodbye to the AIFW summer-edition and to our Streethearts-contest. Esther Coppoolse, fashion director of ELLE, was chosen as our most fashionfabulous streetheart. Because she has her own personal style instead of acting like a fashion victim. And that has nothing to do with her job, she’s been developing her style over the years and it’s only getting better. It’s stylish, daring, personal and you can see she had fun dressing up.

But hey, that doesn’t mean you didn’t look good – everybody we photographed and put on the wall was worth looking at. And inspiring too. So we want to thank you all for dressing up ! And we’ll meet again next year !
