Just Cavalli A/W 2011

(ph. from Elle.uk)


Milan Fashion Week 2011 is facing its end and after today's shows from Dsquared, Iceberg, Giorgio Armani and Mila Schon, here comes Just Cavalli. I had the incredible opportunity, or at least "incredible" for a 16 year old fashion-show newbie to have a place at Just Cavalli. I had to attend to Gucci and John Richmond as well but I had exams that unfortunately I could not skip. However, let's talk about the fashion show, instead of my poor school life!


Denim fashion = not really my style. Personally I think it is really hard to pull off jeans-on-jeans but in this collection Roberto Cavalli found a way to put this in a fantastic way through color shades, so darker jeans with lighter jeans in order to create a difference in the fabric. The entire collection was so warm...literally! Fur, fur, fur, everywhere. You could feel extremely hot inside the room although outside was FREEZING COLD.

Oh yeah, you know what's really really amazing of this collection? Yes the fabric, but the shoes...oh my god the shoes were to die for seriously. After Miu Miu S/S 2010 collection and its shape of the heels, I feel like all the shoes are made in that way, but I adored the heels, which by the way are freekishingly high

After the fashion show, photographers stopped me to take pictures of me and my outfit, which was really cool cause I mean, it doesn't happen every day lol. Hopefully I came out well! There was this model who was wearing a scalloped maxi skirt which was lovely. Hopefully if I stumble upon the pictures those photographers took I'll post them up here, unfortunately I still don't have a decent camera...

Nature Vs. Nurture

Not having photoshop is seriously FRUSTRATING! I don't have adecent header, I can't edit photos, crop them, nothing. GAH. I am just so tired but when I try to fall asleep, I can't. I'm starting to have heart problems again, which I believe are due to stress. The new D&G SS11 collection makes me happy though. Floral pattern and Snowhite. very cliche` but I like it, it makes my eyes happy lol. I'm downloading the trial version of Photoshop, so that I can make at least the header for my blog.

Alexander McQueen SS11



(photos by me)
Went to Alexander McQueen's atelier today and it was a great experience for me. "Normal" people like me usually cannot go there, because it's not a store or an outlet. I met the sales director and I asked him if I could work backstage at Alexander McQueen during the next Milano Fashion Week on February and he said yes!

Aren't these creations just so amazing?
