Supertrash Catwalk Fashion Show Amsterdam FW2011

The Supertrash fashion show was one great spectacle. Since it was held in the big round Gashouder building much more people could attend the show. There were enormous queues outside and it took hours for everyone to find their seats. For the guests of the front row this was not too difficult. Girls in white tees with their names on it were holding their seats.

Around 22.15u the show finally started. A model in a light suit opened the show, followed by a classic camel coat and a pencil skirt with a floral printed blouse. The designs in beige, sand and nudes felt super feminine and made the models (with high ponytails and green eye make-up) look confident and sexy.

Jumpsuits, corsetlike tops with skirts, fur coats, leather jackets and lace dresses (inspired by the roaring 20ties and elegant 30ties) all looked beautifully made and will definitely sell well. The models wore them with eye catching gold jewelry (in the shape of the letters ‘S’ & ‘T’) and ankle boots.

After all models walked the round catwalk one more time, Olcay Gulsen appeared and there were fireworks. Then everyone gathered in the center of the room to celebrate Supertrash and Amsterdam Fasion Week.

A night to remember…

Ready to Fish by Ilja Visser Catwalk Fashion Show FW2011

Like two weeks ago during the presentation of her haute couture collection Ilja Visser again chose a special way of showing her new ready to wear collection. She chose the MC theater as the location and opted for Cirque de Burlesque as a theme for the show.

When we arrived we received fancy scroppino’s, popcorn and cotton candy and some clownesque people led us to the room where the show started. There some circus attributes (balls, swing, trampoline, ladder) were put in place for the models to pose with them.

“..So come on, escape with me
To a world where magic can be..”

Ilja designed pleated pants, tough denim shorts, capes, airy black tops and chunky knitwear (hand-knitted). There was a lot of black, combined with shades of grey, red and a graphic print. The models had large afro wigs and some red and blue details in their make-up. They looked very streetwise in their funky, young and feminine clothes.

Ready to Fish Backstage AIFW FW2011

The hair and colorful make up took some time to get ready backstage at Ready to Fish, the ready to wear-collection of Ilja Visser. Especially the braiding and curling, but the result was stunning and playful. The curly hair fitted perfectly with the theme of the collection.

Tony Cohen Catwalk Fashion Show FW2011

Tony Cohen usually shows his collections in New York. Not this season; as his show was part of the Amsterdam Fashion Week. He did bring some international allure to Amsterdam though; he hired topmodel Kim Noorda to open the show.

His collection was inspired by classic sixties couture and did indeed appear very luxurious. Tony used rich materials like silk, poly crepe and chiffon, mixed with typical winter fabrics like wool, cashmere and lambskin.

The tops and dresses all were very richly embroidered and looked very shiny. Tony also used a lot of draping and pleating in his designs. Therefore the designs didn’t look very tight.

As one of the few designers this week Tony Cohen showed some very good winter designs. Especially his coats (a black wool kimono, a nude lambskin, a pleated overcoat) looked warm and comfy.

The jewelry could have been a little more subtle, but altogether the collection looked lovely.
