Fendi's Baguettemania

Fendi fêtes the 15th anniversary of their iconic Baguette, created by Silvia Venturini Fendi in 1997. Of course there already was a very fashionable party, a fashionable book, pop-ups in the leading concept stores and now an online pop-up boutique.

For those who are not familiar with the Baguette, here's a little clue: We all remember the SATC scene in which Carrie Bradshaw gets mugged. When the mugger demands her to hand over her bag, she goes "It's not a bag, it's a baguette!" (SATC episode 47, season 3). And just like that miss Bradsaw created a Fashion Frenzy for the Fendi Baguette.

Saint Laurent

One of the highly anticipated shows during this Paris Fashion Week was Saint Laurent by Hedi Slimane. At the helm of the house he started by re-naming the brand Saint Laurent. So, for shure we did not expact he would stop there, no! Hedi Slimane took original YvesSaintLaurent ingredients like; le smoking, la saharienne, the caftan, mousseline, bows, mixed these up into his own recipe and the result is a dark, edgy, rock & roll collection. So it's sure that Hedi Slimane will be dressing a new Saint Laurent woman; younger, cooler, androgynous. I've always been a YvesSaintLaurent devotee, so for my personal wardrobe I'll keep on stroling for vintage and pieces from former YSL collections.

The splendour of Raf Simons at Christian Dior

It is clear that Raf Simons knows damn well how to channel the spirit of monsieur Dior! Being a modern time man mr. Simons knows exactly what la femme Dior anno 2013 needs and turns her into a style maverick, without depriving her of the Christian Dior DNA. And from my perspective, he does it with splendour! Hmm, if I get to pick three outfits for myself, I would pick...what? A girl can dream, can't she?...Well, let me show you my picks:

No worries, I can count till three, I just got four favorits...

My love affair with Dries

What can I say, I just LOVE Dries' collections; the clothes, the shoes, the accessories...everything is elegant but exuberant, his clothes don't restrict you, they let you move and breath, you can really live in them and that's just great! Well, that's how I feel when wearing one of his beautiful pieces. And looking at the images of the collection he showed today, once again I want to be a Dries Van Noten woman. Yes, my love affair with Dries continues.

A clean slate

A clean slate, that's how I discribe Véronique Branquiñho's comeback collection. In the overall her collection is more feminin, the dresses even got a Goddes touch but of course the masculin twist, for wich she's known, is not missing. Her Spring pallet is nutral, mainly; nude, white and black, perhaps a way to make us focus on the shapes. Well, I guess Véronique Branquiñho is still able to please her devotees.
