The reason to love Allesandro Dell Acqua’s No.21 collections? Simple answear- they are made to wear. And this is the secret of his AW14 collection, that is fabulous. Full of brocade, tomboy chic, pointy flats and lovely fur, the collection gets my thumbs up. And the perfect look is the one with chunky knitted sweater with a sheer skirt under- it’s very lady-like, but at the same time effortless. More of this type outfits are warmly welcomed on the streets!

Baroque. Erdem AW14
Only Erdem Moralioglu can make brocade trousers in bordeaux colour look so light and girlie. The inspiration for Erdem’s AW14 tumbled out on the runway: here, botanical prints; there, the necklines found in Velasquez paintings. As the designer said, he wanted to bring all the ideas together, into one show, unfinished. And that was a good move- the clothes felt very glorious, but at the same time not full of pretence, noting the amount of dark brocade and gold elements. Definitely, this is one of the best collections to date from this season’s London Fashion Week.
Myanmar: MANDALAY
That was a very busy day in Mandalay for me… This town can really mix up you with all these 2000 pagodas that are located here. First we visited the Shwenandaw monastery, that is totally made out of the teak wood in a carved technique. What’s more the, Kuthawdaw Pagoda, that contains the largest book in the world (owned by UNESCO) is so mind-blowing, that I am still overhelmed. In Mandalay city, I saw so many amazing things you won’t find anywhere else (note the Kyauktawgyi Pagoda, where a sitting Buddha sits carved in one single piece of marble, weighting 900 tons)… So here are my photos!
Myanmar: SHWEDAGON PAGODA
The first day in Myanmar was all about the capital city- Yangon. Full of new experiences, views and photographs, Yangon was surely magnificent with it’s amazing gold Shwedagon Pagoda. Covered with more than 70 tons of gold, this Pagoda is the biggest religious centre of Buddhism. You may offer Buddha your own Jasmine flower branch on your day-of-birth corner, and have a wish! If you are in Myanmar, this place is the must see one. Not only for experience, but also for some spiritual happiness!
HC: VALENTINO SS14
“Fifty-five looks for fifty-five operas. The Valentino designers Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli were after something new for Couture this season, and they found it in the age-old tradition of opera. The show opened with a nod to La Traviata; Giuseppe Verdi’s score was embroidered in black on the long, full skirt of a parchment-colored tulle dress. By the end, they had called out all the greats: Puccini’s La Bohème inspired an elegant navy cashmere cape and silk crepe sheath. Bizet’sCarmen produced a pleated bronze tulle gown with silver-gray guipure lace embroideries”. And I loved the animals. Magnifique!
