SUCCESS IN THE SUPERMARKET

Photobucket


This show was one of the most spectacular, different and special I have ever attended before.
It took place in Milan during Men's Fashion Week and the venue?


The amazing Excelsior Supermarket!


When I received the invitation, was a surprise to see it was a coupon book with discounts in "Moschino food", Moschino Water" etc ahaha


Photobucket


The show started with AMAZING and super cool pieces

Photobucket

Many pieces from this collection are funny, are fresh, are original and of course full of good taste and imagination... Is not easy to combine these products represented in clothes! Believe me!

Look at those "Budweiser" trousers haha. 
Also the polo shirt is super cool! Look at FRESH logo over the piece!

Awesome or not?

Photobucket

Also "Fresh logo" was represented in pieces like jackets, bombers...

What do you think about it? I really like this because is like "let's start to enjoy and discover what Fashion can bring you"!
I think is important make special things for Fashion Shows, locations, inspirations.. Sometimes is perfect!

After those super cool pieces, started to appear suits and jackets perfect for a special date!


Photobucket


Pink, Yellow, green are some of the colors introduced in this new side of Moschino S/S 2013


RJ king looks fantastic and as you can see every look is full of details.
Scarfs in the jacket, hat and a perfect relation of colors are features of every look


Photobucket


Photobucket



Sunnies are important as well in this collection! The mix of materials is GORGEOUS! I need the orange ones haha
Since this summer I'm a lover of this little accessory! Why now? No idea but I'm starting to like things I have never liked before!


Do you like the sunnies?


Of course Moschino also have thought in people who doesn't like the excessive pieces, talking about colors and details



Photobucket



Viktor Nylander wears a suit that could be named "Common".
There are some features to highlight:


The stripe shirt
The Bow tie
The Sash


Which one do you prefer?


Of course, you can't understand how cool it was without see a little bit in video!







Is your perspective the same one than before? Again, it was a great show!

THE TRIBUTE

Photobucket

The other day I had the chance to attend an amazing tribute which took place in Madrid with my friend Africa and Javier de Miguel!

I was waiting this day during a long week, because Africa is my very good friend who is studying Fashion Design in Paris and the friend I can't see all time I would like. 
Javi appeared in the door while I was waiting so all together enjoyed the beautiful tribute

Who does not know to Philip Treacy?

Photobucket

He is a HUGE artist able to develop the most incredible, unique and different head accessories around the world. 
All of you have seen his creations over films, magazines, pictures...and for sure your impression when you saw them was something like " WOW!"

After visit the Photocall space, you get in to a beautiful venue with candles, Rubens pictures and the creations of Mr Treacy.

The first one I would like to show you is the creation he developed with Mr Alexander McQueen in tribute to Isabella Blow
It is an amazing piece of art.. where metal develops a garden where flowers conquer the space.. so beautiful!

There were as well the most funny ones

Photobucket

Photobucket

SUPER COOL! Imagine wear one of these pieces in a wedding or something haha! For sure you will bright more than the rest of people there!
Here is where you can taste the different sides of Mr Treacy. When I saw him in the party I could understand without talk with him that he is a very professional man, super creative, serious but also with a special side where fun has an important place too

BUT to be honest and from my point of view..

Photobucket

THIS ONE IS THE ONE!

I'm impacted with this creation and I saw it in many places before. The shape from middle face to the top, where eyes are locked, color, material.. EVERYTHING is spectacular...

What do you think?

Few minutes later, we go to another super cool part in the Tribute..

The Terrace!

In half walk, we saw this more than cool Sofa, because the party was a Beefeater London Tribute to him!

Photobucket

I'm a huge lover of UK's flag so this Sofa should be at home not there.. HUM!

In the Terrace, I could see the fabulous Eric from Replica and many other friends! I love to see people in these parties because sometimes there is the only chance to see them!

Of course, for a good conversation in a party like that is important to have a

Photobucket

COCKTAIL! haha, it is a basic, you know it and I know it!

I was in the party like 2 hours and I had a super good time with Africa as you can see

Photobucket

Instagram forever haha! I can't keep my hand out my iPhone more than 3 hours without check Instagram.. it is a drug!

...

What do you think about Philip Treacy? Are these creations important, in your opinion, for this industry?

I wanna say one thing: DEFINITELY! at least for me

How is your summer going? My summer is going to be WORK and WORK but is ok!

OH! I almost forget to show you the 1st preview from 2nd issue of ODDA!!

Photobucket

He is Ton Heukels from L'Uomo Elite and this photo was taken by the AMAZING, Juan Martin and all in MUGLER

I'm super excited.. Do you like the 1st preview?

THE PERFECT COMBINATION



I'm a huge FAN of this world of mixes, senses and ideas always working and keeping dreams on.
We are in the middle of Summer 2012 with upcoming Fall/Winter 2012-13 where Pre-fall is walking around us, Spring/Summer 2013 for men is just introduced and Resort collections for women are showing their best bets for next season.


It's crazy, excitement and full of things to think about Are you ready?


In the middle of Summer 2012 we can find Essentials for them. Essentials Dior Homme specially like and for sure the biggest part of boys dream to have this summer.

Photobucket

Is time for travel and being all day with bags and luggage so.. What is better than a bag like the ones on the picture?


Dior Homme S/S 2012 is full of leather details, cotton and accessories like those bags and hats.. Do you want it right? Be honest with me haha!


The essentials for girls are the best ones as possible and comfortable!


I'm in love with this collaboration and you should run to get it! 
Adidas Original x Opening Ceremony collaboration is amazing and I have focused my attention to these shoes

Photobucket

Photobucket

The transparent lace-up inspiration is fantastic. They are perfect for summer, beach, walk around the seaside, partying...


Do you like them?


Of course, there are always things and highlights perfect for boys and girls. This time thanks to Marcelo Burlon and his new line of T-shirts " Marcelo Burlon Country of Milan "





I'm a lover of t-shirt in summer and the ones designed by him are perfection, are chic, are elegant and cool!
Lea T and himself are the charges to show you every design in the video and now, I want to ask you one thing:


Are you going to loose the chance to get one?


 There is always one of the points I always like to discover when every season is up to come. This point are the campaigns and how they will look for this Fall/Winter 2012-13

Photobucket

The doubt is sorted! Brands are showing their campaigns and there are many AWESOME
The first one I would like to show you are the Mulberry F/W 2012-13 with Lindsey Widxon


Look at the sweet monster around her, the amazing forest, they composition.. it is fabulous right?


Another campaign I specially like is from my always beloved Alexander McQueen!
It is super different than the idea I could have for this collection campaign, but in my opinion, that is the point: make what people never expect from you
Photobucket

Photobucket

LOVE the attitude of the model, the combination between the ostentatious dresses and that background with geometric shapes!


Is like " future is here" "around you" "yes, we can do it" haha!


What do you think about it?


The other campaign I want to highlight is the always beautiful Valentino.
The venue is the most beautiful baroque palace I have ever seen in campaigns and more if you are someone doesnt like half things: Minimalism or baroque haha


Photobucket


Frida Gustavsson is one of the 3 models in this campaign and the beautiful lace dresses with embroidery work the protagonist!


BUT, I'm not finished with Fall/Winter 2012-13. The Collections issue of Vogue Italy is here and preview from the Steven Meisel job, leave me speechless  


Photobucket


The environment is spectacular, the Make up by Pat McGrath is art and the styling... NO WORDS!
For me every page is art and I would like to be there discover how all the team worked


Photobucket


The McQueen collection pages preview is AMAZING! so funny right?


Another important thing I want to show you and always with Fall/Winter 2012-13 but this time from Haute Couture side.. is this beautiful Elie Saab sketch.


Photobucket


I admire the final sketches from designer and this Elie Saab one from his last Couture collection is gorgeous.
Dazed & Confused had the chance to get it and is fabulous. Thanks for that.


What do you think about designers sketches? Are they important for you?


To finish, what happens with Resort 2013? haha! Spring/ Summer 2013 for boys is something I would like to show you trough the shows I attended.. I still have LOADS of this to share with you but girls doesn't have lot of things to wear from those shows haha


KENZO has wonderful accessories for next season, at least a preview of maybe what the S/S 13 for women could be
Photobucket
I have to be honest and confess I'm in love with the new Kenzo designers. They are super fresh, full of innovative ideas and they turned the brand to a new step 


These sunnies are soooo cool! and if you want to keep whatever with you:
Photobucket
OH YEAH! haha!
the perfection or not? I'm impatience to discover their S/S 2013 collection, believe me! and you?


...

My week is crazy and super busy yet! Hope tomorrow start to have more time and being here more and more with ideas I would like to apply!

BLUE + RED

Photobucket

Dior Homme is maybe my favorite show every season in Paris during the Men's Fashion Week.
When I arrive to the city after Milan, I always have to revise when Dior Homme will take place and start to think: How this season will be?

For next Spring/Summer 2013, Dior is BLUE

Photobucket

Kris Van Assche bet for this color in the most part of the collection, playing with this tone in all the pieces for next season.

Suits, T-shirts, sweaters, trousers...They are pure blue and always keeping the clean style of Dior Homme.
Mr Van Assche has developed the perfect re-invention of blazers with 6 buttons giving a fresh way to this kind of style.

The tone of blue is dark, almost black and this is the perfect feature for keep the elegance.

Photobucket

I really admire the perfection of cuts and necks. They are spectacular and make me think in how cool they would be next summer in my body haha!

This guy is a new face. His name is Karl and he made loads of shows this season.. don't forget his face!

Do you like bombers?

Photobucket

I do and more if is this one by Mr Van Assche for Dior Homme. The mix of fabrics between the bomber and trouser is perfect! Sport and chic.. what else do you need?

Of course the volume it has is AWESOME! I have an special love for volumes over jackets and coats, no idea why but they make you look good!

Photobucket

In this picture, you can start to see what Kris Van Assche is going to introduce in terms of colors.
The mini stripe in beige introduce the 2nd step of the collection and change a bit the style.

Beige + Blue

Photobucket

Mr Alex Beck wears the combination of change! Also not only the colors give another step, the outfit style show the fresh and young style of this Dior Homme S/S 2013 collection.
I really like how works that t-shirt with trousers. They are usually the same every season, with differences in terms of fabrics and maybe cuts, but they always are defined and perfect

Look at the buttons over the shoulders! cool right? always keeping the military way hehe

There are another 3 features to talk about. The first one is the awesome grey outfits with black

Photobucket

Grey is one of my favorite colors as far and this coat.. NO WORDS!

It is classic, long and special. Everybody could wear it without problems and that is a very important point right now.
The combination with the black t-shirt is perfect, the same than grey trousers

Another feature, is for sure the most written here on my blog haha!

TRANSPARENCIES

Photobucket

Look at this trench! The sleeves and back is made under a transparent material, leaving open what you wear under the trench and giving a super cool way to trench for summer!

It is fresh and I LOVE IT! what do you think? 
Check the face of him.. is going to be a huge model soon as well!

To finish, the main highlight of the collection under my opinion

RED NECKS UNDER BLUE PIECES

Photobucket

This combination left me without words. It is beautiful and the intense tone of red special.
I have to confess don't like too much the mix of these colors but when I saw in the runway this proposal was like WHAT?

He is Rafa Bodgar! A future top who made more than 9 shows this season!

and...What about shoes? hahaha! No pictures but I have to say they are amazing! I special like the black ones with details in red :)

What do you think about Dior Homme
Do you like the new collection?

I'm impatience to discover the new collection in january haha! I look like a crazy man, I know but...

HAVE A NICE WEEKEND AND THANKS EVERYBODY!
