Marloes Blaas Catwalk Fashion Show Amsterdam FW2011

Marloes Blaas showed at the Zuiveringshal today, a bigger show area, so a great step for her. The collection called ‘a woman’s merit’ was inspired by the forties and had lots of world war references in it.

The show started with heavy materials like old army tents, leather and chunky knits (capes and pants). Yet there were some airy, feminine items too, like blouses and jumpsuits. Marloes used old maps from the world war too and in that way recycled her materials like people did in the forties.

Check our show preview for more background information on the show of Marloes Blaas.

Bas Kosters Catwalk Fashion Show Amsterdam FW2011

The Bas Kosters fashion show was one great spectacle. Everyone was watching the show with a big smile on his face and how could you resist such great entertainment?

It all started with a clip featuring Bas Kosters’ face, in which his hair and make-up mutated all the time (35 different looks). Then his models came on carrying stuffed puppets and pushing a Bugaboo pram. The collection was bright and colorful and had everything to do with mutated animals.

The clothes looked super comfortable, as did the Palladium shoes. The music, a mix by DJ Joost van Bellen was insane, featuring the song ‘Da steht ein Pferd auf dem Flur’. After all outfits were shows Bas already received a BIG round of applause, but the show was not yet over…

..As a grande finale Bas Kosters and his boyfriend came on stage singing and dancing together with a group of dancing students with the most gorgeous exotic floral head pieces. The show was complete MADNESS and everyone had such a great time! Good job Bas!!!
