NYC. Creatures of The Wind SS14

September 5, 2013September 5, 2013 | Design & Culture by Ed

Surprise, surprise! NYFW just started! Full of energy and fresh designers, the first day was all about… style of New Yorker “too-cool-to-care” style, that is always bright and not banal! S, here I am writing about the first, selected by me collection of New York Fashion Week (last year we started with Alexander Wang!), Creatures of The Wind. This young label designed by duo of “cool” boys is a definition of youth and coolness of NYC people. It is a mix of python prints, colour blocks, flower embroideries, loose trousers and straight forms that look casual and at the same time extremely elegant- but with fantasy. What I seriously loved about this season at CoTW were the fabrics- beautiful, a bit rustical rose embroideries mixed with super modern materials… And the structural skirts looked like art pieces on the models silhouette. This is a extremely cool collection. Can’t wait for more NYFW that is always exciting!

Acne Studios Bento Box

This funny piece from AW13 Acne Studios collection is not a kind of a modern house decoration. And it’s not a Japanese snack box. It is a clutch! But what kind of a clutch- it looks like made from marble, has a cool emoji sign or Acne’s Stockholm store address and has a mirrored inside interior! You shall fit there everything and anthing, and it’s a “living” piece of modernism in conceptual fashion! Love it!

Damir Doma X Mykita

The Mykita X Damir Doma collaboration for Croatian designer based in Paris eyewear line is all about beauty of simplicity. The sunglasses with rounded frames look very 60’s-70’s but in a much, much more minimalistic edition. Packed in a black box, these chic collaboration shades will give you the right, modern Parisian vibe to your casual outfit! Available on COLETTE.fr

Prabal Gurung X Casadei AW13

August 26, 2013 | Design & Culture by Ed

It’s not the first time when New York designer Prabal Gurung collaborates with Casadei for his runway shoes. But I must admit, the AW13 creations that we saw on the feet of the models in March were simply amazing. The collecton was all about Amazon women in Winter surroundings, that are strong and beautiful at the same time. With the beauty connected to harness, the collection was called to be one of the best in NYC! The shoe collection with Casadei was kept in khaki, black and gold colours, with buckles all around and characteristic, abit curvy, Casadei heel. As you see, the legs looks really sexy in these Must-ies, so start saving on them!

Berlin: Schumacher Love

July 28, 2013 | Design & Culture by Ed

The beautiful Schumacher boutique is located in the Quartet 206 building, next to stores of Moschino and Brille 54. But first of all, what is Schumacher? No it’s not one of these not popular Parisian labels or something else this type. It’s super famous German label that is known for beautifully made clothes in pretty low prices! All German women have something from Schumacher, and it’s on the level of Miu Miu! Schumacher is design by Miss Dorothee Schumacher, that as she says, designs clothes for women to be completing their looks. Totally agree because every women wering this Berlin based label looks stylish and warm. Just as their woolen sweaters and beautiful, cute dresses. Plus, it is not copying famous designers like Givenchy nor Prada- it has it’s own style, with cute prints and colourful stones attched on the collars and scarves! And this boutique over here is definitely the best of all- with a characteristic Schumacher wallpaper showing their circular packaging boxes, and warm, simpatic pastel colours used on sofas and chairs. Additionally, the service gives you some free Schumacher water! Friedrichstraße 71 in the Quartet 206
