Tuesday, August 31, 2010

One of my favourite fashion photographers, Corinne Day, died this weekend at the age of only 45, after struggling with cancer for several years.
Day was one of the very first to bring daily life into fashion photography, working in a natural and entirely unpretentious manner – sadly still unusual for fashion, but especially so during [...]

Tuesday, August 31, 2010

There are so many odd things to be found on the internet, it’s just impossible to find that stuff without having been given the proper links. The Guardian’s weekly listings magazine The Guide which comes free with the paper on Saturdays honors these oddities with a full page of reviews every week. They’re introducing interesting [...]

AU REVOIR LES ENFANTS

Tuesday, July 27, 2010

Serie A is – was – the kind of store that every young designer wanted to be sold by. Well designed, with passionate staff and an excellent choice of designers, Serie A was easily the best designer boutique in Munich – even better: a wealthy city, as opposed to Berlin. Nonetheless, the you know what [...]

THE NORTH CIRCULAR

Thursday, July 15, 2010

“Knitted by grannies, supported by supermodels”, this is The North Circular motto. Katherine Poulton, Alice Shelby, Isobel Davies and super model Lily Cole have joined forces to create a knitwear collection. Scarves, mittens, collars and other accessories are knitted by grannies using the wool of rare sheep from Wensleydale in England.

BERLIN FASHION WEEK #01: REALITY STUDIO

Monday, July 5, 2010

I guess the flaw with Berlin’s Fashion Week is that it’s always being compared to Paris, New York or London – traditional fashion capitals that Berlin obviously cannot compete with, for a variety of reasons.

DYSFASHIONAL

Wednesday, June 23, 2010

Our current cover star Sissel Tolaas will be exhibiting at the group show Dysfashional opening tomorrow night at Berlin’s Haus der Kulturen der Welt. Exploring ‘the boundaries between fashion and art’ might sound a little noughties by now, but then again, you can’t really argue with a line-up including Maison Martin Margiela, Raf Simons, Hussein [...]
