Mules are Back

Gianvito Rossi mules

O-oh. For some it’s yay, and some nay, but mules are back. These super un-healthily uncomfortable wedge-heel-boot shoes is totally back at the SS14 runways. In reality, these shoes look really sexy on your legs, but from the other side is it really worth to hurt your feet? Surely, some designers made it professionally with smart shoemakers (note Manolo Blahnik for Victoria Beckham), and some made it in their own way… these quirky Celine mules ARE crazy!

Victoria Beckham X Theresa

On the 15th of November, at the Theresa store on Maffeistraße 3 in Munich, a very special and one-in-a-kind event took place. While I was arriving to the store, a big mass of people stood there, with cameras and phones. Then I thought, that this is something really big. After a stare of people around me, I entered the warm place, where labels like Celine, Saint Laurent or Dries Van Noten got their hangers on. The event was happening on the second floor, so when I went upstairs, I was pleasantly surprised… The atmospheric music was on, Veuve Clicquot was poured into the champagne glasses and white roses mixed with Diptyque candle aroma gave an delicate, but refreshing scent around the space.
Excited, I didn’t know at what should I be concentrated first- at the amazing dresses, guest’s outfits or chatting with others about the event… Then I saw Justin O’Shea, the main shopper for Mytheresa, whose style is my favourite to watch during the fashion weeks! After having a small talk with him about the whole party, the most expected moment came- the biggest star of the evening arrived! Her fragile and as always chic posture moved promptly into the centre of the room. Yes, that was Victoria Beckham. Full of grace, wearing a coat from her new collection and killer-heels on, Victoria was at Mytheresa and hosted the party. Taking mine place in the front row (believe me, seeing your name in then front row is a mind-blowing experience!) the show started. As I discovered from Justin, the whole trunk-show was about Beckham’s first ever Resort collection. So, while the models wore all these super sexy and full of colour dresses and coats for Spring, Victoria was telling about her inspirations, occasions for wearing these treasures and the way she styles them . And the best thing was, that Victoria commented at these in such a humorous way, that she immediately made the atmosphere warm and friendly! All the models looked beautifully, just as the outfits they had on!
When the show ended, there was a time for having a short Hello with Victoria Beckham, and a photo taken with her. I was quite shocked, so I just could say “I am happy to meet you” to her, but thankfully Victoria supported me with an answer back and a little hug… After this short meeting with the designer, there was a time to try the dresses from the main line, Victoria by Victoria Beckham and Denim from the Resort 2014 collection, plus seeing up close the stylish totes and mirror clutches. The detailing was really impressive, just as the quality of fabrics- very soft and stretchy. I really fell in love with everything that was orange- this energetic colour looked even more fun in Victoria edition. The classical bags from the main line are already iconic for their delicate leather and minimalistic forms, while the exclusive Mytheresa box-clutches with metallic reflections and custom leather details on, surely will be soon the new bestsellers!
Writing this, I still feel super happy and honoured to be invited for this event together with Lena. Only 50 customers world-wide of Mytheresa could get their invitations, so this is an additional privilege. I met so many amazing people and fashion experts in one place. And of course seeing Victoria for real was incredible. Surely this experience will be for me unforgettable! Thank you very much, Mytheresa!

Sharp Cut Minimalism

20131115-090151 AM.jpg

The SS14 by Victoria Beckham has it’s own, minimalistic mood, that I truly love. And by saying minimalism, I don’t mean the one that is presented at Celine or Jil Sander- Victoria, throughout the seasons sculpted her own style vision, that she’s devoted to in every collection and her everyday style. Kept in mostly black & white colours, the fuxia bright truss patterns on the shirts and skirts simply took all the brave away in the middle of the show. The jackets, bags and shoes looked all pretty comfortable, while the whole collection had it’s architectural, sharp cut in it. Victoria Beckham’s SS14 is a collection by strong women, who mixes work and family in a great style. By the way- the opening of the show was amazing- thanks to Edie Campbell, and the beautiful white-jacket-black-trousers outfit she wore!
