MERCEDES BENZ FASHION DAYS 2013 - DAY 3 & 4 PT 1

The Mercedes Benz Fashion Days has become a big event in Switzerland in the past few years. It's 4 days of Shows, Apéros and Parties. A place where national/international celebrities, fashion people and business people meet.

I have been going since day one, exactly 4 years ago (check out Fashion Days 2011). First and second time I went as a volunteer and helped out backstage and the last two years as Press.
Unfortunately this year I was only able to go two days since I work in Milan during the week. Friday I went with my friend Kerstin Cook, the ex-Miss Switzerland 2010 that everyone knows and yes, she dragged me over the red carpet. Thank you for that Kerstin :)
Both days I saw and met great people, like the designer Moritz Stoll from the swiss brand Aziza Zina, Adam Brody a designer that creates clothes for plus size women, something that I find amazing and should be more seen in the fashion world!! My dear friend Silvano Vitalini from the brand Good & Vitalini that presented together with Danja Good Saturday night a breathtaking collection. Unfortunately I didn't meet the girls from LBD but the also presented a beautiful collection during the MBFD.

Among all the designers I met photographers and some bloggers. Got to hang out Saturday with Anastasia Shev, blogger from Stylittude, Crystal Renn from The Life of an It Girl. Saw again Joy from Fashiongamble and finally had the pleasure to meet Tiphaine from Tiphaine's Diary, Tanja from Never Dreamed About This and Elvira Abasova from The Russian Code.

Besides all the great people and shows the highlight was Karlie Kloss, she came only friday night to watch the show. And I got the chance to take a picture with her thanks to Andrea Hug !!! :)

More about the Fashion Days tomorrow with my favorite pieces. Happy Sunday!

KERSTIN COOK

KC I had the chance to meet this gorgeous girl during summer. I spent some hours with her in Luzern, Switzerland where we had a small video shoot. She was Miss Switzerland 2010, completely understandable because she's super nice, beautiful and above all intelligent.
Under the video find a small interview about her and about her modeling career :)

ONLY BLACK - Philipp Plein SS 14, MIlan Fashion Week

"Only Black" was Philipp Plein's theme for his women collection presented Saturday during Milan Fashion Week. My friend and I we got there a bit earlier so we had the chance to see the collection backstage before the show. Unfortunately we couldn't stay longer because the show was about to start. Opening act was australian singer Iggy Azalea with her super track "Work" where she did a great performance on the amazing stage, with big LED screens reflecting on the wall full of mirrors. Iggy Azalea is the perfect image for the Philipp Plein brand, with her refined style with a mix of  the hip hop style (she will be the new face of the Spring Summer 2014 campaign).

Followed by only black models, Plein kept his signature using leather, spikes, swarowski stones, python leather... Dresses done hand-made with pearls, sportive trousers and jackets, but always keeping everything elegant and casual. The colors used were mostly a mix of black and white but also with a touch of holographic blue and pink. Of course what made everything even better during the show was Philipp Plein's DJ, Michael Prado.

After the show was the after party where Iggy Azalea performed some other songs including "Bounce".
Like always, it was amazing and an unforgettable night.

PHILIPP PLEIN SS 14 - Milan Fashion Week

It has been some months since the Men show but I still can't forget how amazing it was. It's just unforgettable! With Isabeli Fontana opening the show, followed by model Tomas Skoloudik with the soundtrack of Robin Thicke and Pharell "Blurred Lines" and of course all the top male models, such as Jarrod Scott, Alexandre Cunha, Diego Fragoso, Gabriel Burger, Marlon Teixeira, the twins Alessandro & Nicolas Hasni, Rael Costa, Clement Chabernaud and many many others... By soo many good looking guys walking down the runway it was sometimes hard to pay attention to the clothes (haha), but seriously it was amazing. People still talk about it today. I fell in love with all the leather jackets!! I'm sure soon soon you guys can check out all the pieces in all the Philipp Plein stores :)

Pictures were done by me, some of them are really dark but I think that makes it even more interesting!! Enjoy !!
