+ (End of) Chapter I: Berlin +

Thanks God for the weekend, otherwise I am sure it would have been a seven-out-of-seven nightmare. Fortunately, there are also all these family and friends meetings that can save the whole situation and...

+ Vivienne Westwood Shoes: An Exhibition 1973 – 2010 +

If I hear Vivienne Westwood and, inmediately after , I hear shoes this is the very first image that comes to my mind. An iconic Naomi Campbell falling flat on her face*, right in the middle of the F/W 93/94 show, without being able to hold her laugh. Because these were the times when...

“Bows & Bandits started as a little eBay shop about two years ago, that I run with my sister Sophie. We always shared a great love for vintage clothing and could not find anything like that in Austria. We travelled to London, Barcelona, Berlin or Paris for vintage shopping several times a year, so...

It must be the homesickness of not having the sea closer. There’s no other way to explain this navy rage, suddenly appeared after discovering Riviera Noir, the lastest Txema Yeste’s editorial with Alana Zimmer for the August issue of Marie Claire Italia. ———- Debe ser la nostalgia de no tener el mar cerca.

+ Into Paul Frank +

The retro pop details in Paul Frank’s stand during the last Bread & Butter were amazing. I must admit the wooden TV is totally awesome but, if I would have to choose, it would be the mini dressing table in the bathroom, which totally stole my heart. It is really stunning how sometimes just...

+ Berlin Fashion Week — Day#2 +

I spent the second day between Bread & Butter and Premium, two totally different tradeshows that take place at the same time. If B&B always looks a bit over-dimensioned and scandalous, where the one who gets more visitors is the one who has a bigger or more atractive stand or catering service, Premium...

Hace cosa de un año intenté obviar, como quien no quiere la cosa, la campaña de American Apparel para promocionar sus scrunchies; me hizo gracia que coincidiéramos en el revival capilar 90’s (cosa por otro lado bastante obvia, si es que la década está en pleno comeback) pero no estaba...
