Texts like ‘Slow Fashion’ and ‘From trash to treasure’ (once again seventy percent of the collection was produced by Waste2Wear®, fabrics made out of recycled plastic bottles) as well as giant images of the designer herself were pictured at Monique Collignon’s backdrop today. A nice message to spread during this fashion filled week while delivering yet another solid, feminine collection. To the tunes of ‘Show me love’, ‘I am every woman’ and ‘R.E.S.P.E.C.T.’ Monique Collignon sent out luxurious looking elegant ensembles. In a winter proof palette of purple, green, brown and navy her fierce models looked classy and fierce. A purple number with a green coat tossed around the models shoulders looked extremely desirable. As well as a beige and blue look topped off with a filt hat. From basic outfits to party looks extravaganza Monique Collignon will hook you up with the best slow fashion creations next winter.

Shabbies Catwalk Fashion Show MBFWA FW2015

Shabbies is celebrating it’s tenth anniversary this year. Every reason to hold a grand catwalk show (Shabbies second collaboration with the Amsterdam Fashion Week) and name it The Silver Edition. All the brand’s highlights came by on a specially built catwalk. High enough to have all eyes on the shoes, divided into four elements (fire, water, air, earth). Pumps, flats and boots in plastic, leather and, naturally, a special silver edition. Harmony of Elements. There were bags and gloves to match, fur stolas to go. Clothes were subsidiary, just plain white shirt dresses. A logical move, ’cause in the right shoes a girl can conquer the world.

 

Camiel Fortgens Catwalk Fashion Show MBFWA FW2015

Last summer Camiel Fortgens graduated at the Design Academy in Eindhoven. For today’s show he expanded his graduation collection KNOWN based on fashion classics like a pair of jeans and the white T-shirt. As a form of criticism against the contemporary cut-copy-paste generation Camiel decided to take a step back. Back to who we really are. Who or what is a man in our globalized, urban society? It turned out to be a man dressed in archetypical clothing. White tees to start with; stiff pants, jackets, coats and sleeveless tops to make them stand out. All made in the most basic and simplistic manner; stitches on the outside and never really with proper fit. They did stand for something though and made up for a strong looking selection nevertheless. There might not be a lot of men copy pasting these designs into their wardrobe. Still, the young designer and trend forecaster made his point trying to bring recognition back into the fashion world.
