Before the AIFW takes over our blog, we would love to share the BOUTYQ-event with you. The fifth edition of BOUTYQ gave a reason to celebrate this great fashionevent. Despite the rain fashion-pro’s and -lovers arrived at the Dylan Hotel to watch the collections of Francisco van Benthum, Jeroen van Tuyl and Unconditional.
The collection of Van Benthum was inspired by Cuba and the tropics, which resulted in a modern/classic design in light fabrics and colors. The British label Unconditional presented mens- and womenswear with a street chic character. Jeroen van Tuyls clsed the evening with his tough yet classic menswear.

SIS by Spijkers & Spijkers Backstage AIFW SS2012
It was a bright and sunny collection at SIS by Spijkers & Spijkers actually. The Dutch duo had the honor to open this edition of Amsterdam International Fashion Week. The models looked like glamorous beachqueens in their 20’s inspired outfits, hair and make-up. Faces were kept natural, with wet look lashes and long diva-like hair.
Backstage at Viktor & Rolf Monsieur SS2012
The team got the opportunity to go backstage at Viktor & Rolf Monsieur. Meet Florian and Martin, watch the dressers, hairdressers and make-uppeople work hard to transfer the boys into chic casual Seventies playboys. And did you see those cool sunglasses? They covered the small glasses that were underneath, a cool way to keep you spec on. We enjoyed it!

First View Milan FW2011: Shine

The Shine-theme is about all that shines, from metallic armors to shimmery diaphanous layers. Who thought we would be dipped in sobriety for another season was wrong. Though there are still restrained looks and calm understatement plus loads of minimalistic shapes, some designers have clearly found a route to escape.
It is far easier to diversify and stand out in more expressive and new materials then when having to dig deep into total simple and soberness. So we welcome the sequins, high sheen silks, lurex metal shine and slick skin looks. Plus high tech coatings or big translucent scales layer plain colour and print.
