MBFW: THE SHIT SHOP SHOW WITH MY WINNERS

Last year's Shit Shop Show was THE SHIT! This year's Shit Shop show didn't fail to entertain and live up to its expectations. Models dressed in the fanciest most STRANGE clothes walked the catwalk to the sickest old school Hip Hop beats (Bonnie definitely has good taste in music!! And thank you for the even sicker tunes at the Aftershow party!) and I got to meet and take along two of my readers to fashion week.

MBFW BERLIN FASHION WEEK: DAY 4

Day 4 - Final Day - in all it's glory!

MBFW BERLIN FASHION WEEK: DAY 3

My Adventures from Day 3! Here we go...

MBFW BERLIN FASHION WEEK: DAY 2

And when I thought Day 1 was going to be my busiest, I was mistaken. I didn't see many shows that day (missed 1 or 2 because of my full schedule), but had lots of events to attend and places to be at the same time. Fashion Week Day 2 in it's full blast!
 All about it below.

MBFW BERLIN FASHION WEEK: DAY 1

Twice a year there is this week that revolves solely around fashion. And it's called fashion week. 4 wonderful hectic days filled with nothing but shows, presentations, openings, cocktail receptions, launches and parties all in the name of fashion. This season was yet again pretty crazy for me.
Day 1. Here we go!

PRE FASHION WEEK: MY LOOK

So how do you dress for a perfume launch, a fashion show and a pool party at once, without bringing along a whole new second outfit to change into? Well this is what I wore to the Diesel Lover Dose Tattoo Launch, the Starbucks Discoveries presents Alice M. Huynh event (read about it here) and the Dandy Diary Fashion Week Pool Party kick off Party.
In the end I didn't go to the Dandy Diary Fashion Week kick off pool party... I could have worn just a normal outfit. Oh well.. At least my bikini top came in handy for mother nature's rain party. I was beaten by the rain and it felt like a taste of Dandy Diary's Pool Party right there in the streets of Berlin.

PRE FASHION WEEK: STARBUCKS DISCOVERIES PRESENTS ALICE M. HUYNH

When I received my invitation for the Starbucks Discoveries Show and saw the nominees I accepted the invite knowing I was going to Alice's Fashion Show.
My confidence did not let me down, Alice did win and received the chance to present her designs, a mini collection, at the new Starbucks at the Sony Center as a Berlin Fashion Week Pre Fashion Week event hosted by Bonnie Strange. I couldn't help but feel over joyous for her and in a way a bit proud that she had made it.
I remember looking up to Alice, reading her blog, too shy to ask her to explain how fashion week works to me. In the end I summed up all my courage and penned down my questions. I was surprised at the immediate response answering all my questions and how kind she was.
And just last week, here she was, having her very own Fashion show.

I found a few pictures of Louisa and me up on virtualnights.com from the Kauffeld&Jahn after show party. We didn't stay too long though, but for the time we did, we had lots of fun.

PRE FASHION WEEK SHOW: KAUFFELD & JAHN COUTURE

Fashion Week for me started with a usual pre-fashion week event: this time I received an invitation to the Kauffeld & Jahn Couture show that took place at the nHow Hotel Berlin.

BERLIN FASHION WEEK A/W 13 INSTA IMPRESSIONS

Fashion Week is over. I enjoyed 4 (5 actually..) really great days with amazing shows, nice after show parties and events, catching up with my amazing people and meeting new ones of course. Can't wait to show you the pictures from all my days and the shows. Can't wait to share the experience with you. But for now, here is a little impression of what my days were like.

Have a great weekend!

PS.: I uploaded the pictures from my phone to my computer.  My iPhone wouldn't let me upload the pictures to my instagram account because of internet problems I have been facing the last couple of weeks. Though as soon as my phone reconnects by itself they'll upload automatically. So don't be confused!

Anyway fashion week is over. Was a great week and I enjoyed it a lot.

OUR VERY OWN FASHION WEEK OPENING PARTY

I could have gone to the Bread and Butter Opening Party everybody seemed to praise and worship the next day. (If I had picked up my pass in the morning, that is... :P). We could have waited in the queue for hours freezing just to be able to join next morning's gossip about how amazing the LesMads x DandyDiary party was.
But we didn't. Instead we found a little bar/pub tucked somewhere in the streets of Berlin near Hackescher Markt.
And you know what?
With the right people it's always a party. And a good one that is ;)

 •••

Ich hätte zur Bread and Butter Opening Party gehen können, die alle am nächsten Tag so loben. (Hätte ich meinen Pass am Morgen abgeholt.. :P). Wir hätten stundenlang in der Schlange warten können, nur um am nächsten Morgen mitreden zu können, wie toll doch die LesMads x DandyDiary Party war.
Haben wir aber nicht. Stattdessen suchten wir uns eine kleine Bar/Pub irgendwo in den Straßen Berlins nahe Hackescher Markt.
Und wisst ihr was?
Mit den richtigen Leuten ist es immer eine (gute) Party. ;)

EDGED SHOWROOM

As I told you before, Edged Showroom was also on my event list for the Fashion Week Opening. And so Carrie and me headed to the Edged Showroom in collaboration with Fier Management before the Blend and Ichi Shows and the FQ1924 launch.

Wie euch bereits gesagt hatte, stand auch Edged Showroom auf meiner Eventliste für die Fashion Week Eröffnung. Und deswegen gingen Carrie und ich zum Edged Showroom in Kollaboration mit Fier Management bevor es mit den Blend und Ichi Shows und dem FQ1924 Launch weiterging.

MBFW DAY 4

Better late than never. Receiving my invitation to the Premium really put me in a Fashion Week mood. Which is why I decided to look at all the pictures that captured my memories from my very first fashion week. Pictures on my blog, pictures on my computer and on my friend's blogs. Going through my archive I realized I never showed you day 4!

FASHION WEEK WITH LOMOGRAPHY I ANJA GOCKEL

Anja Gockel S/S'12 Runway
It wasn'r exactly my taste, but if there was an award for 'Best Finale' she'd deserve it. Her finale was phenomenal.
When the last girl walked back backstage and the lights went off you'd think it was yet another ordinary show. But it wasn't; a few moments later the lights went back on. A model in a bridal gown walked out, cupids arrows in her bun, followed by two (extremely hot!) guys stripped down to their underwear! The bridal dress was an eyecatcher itself, but topped with the a special ending.
Spectacular!

Anja Gockel S/S'12 Runway
Entsprach nicht gerade meinem Geschmack, aber gäbe es einen Preis für 'Bestes Finale', hätte sie ihn verdient. Ihr Finale war phenomenal.
Als das letzte Model zurücklief und die Lichter ausgingen, wäre es eine weitere normale Fashion Show gewesen. War es aber nicht, denn ein paar Augenblicke später, gingen die Lichter wieder an. Ein Model in einem Hochzeitskleid lief raus, Cupids Pfeile in ihrem Dutt, gefolgt von zwei (sehr heißen!) Typen, die nichts als Unterwäsche trugen. Das Kleid selbst war ein Hingucker, aber getoppt mit diesem einzigartigem Ende.
Spektakulär!

FASHION WEEK WITH LOMOGRAPHY I ASANDRI

Asandri S/S '12 Runway

The Asandri Show took place in the Lavera Showfloor, offsite the Fashion Week Tent. I met Alice and a few friends (Sarah, Luisa, Tung, Angelica, Mai, Alizée...) and thanks to Alice I was seated in the front row along side the others. From there I had a perfect view onto the pieces - the models stopped right in front of my face.

Die Asandri Show fand in dem Lavera Showfloor statt, offsite des Fashion Week Zeltes. Ich traf Alice und einige Freunde (Sarah, Luisa, Tung, Angelica, Mai, Alizée...) und dank Alice durfte ich in der Front Row platz nehmen neben den Anderen. Von da hatte ich die perfekte Sicht auf die Kollektion - Models hielten förmlich vor mir.

MBFW DAY 3

On day 3 at Fashion week I rose and shine in my new favourite Jones+Jones Dress. It's like that dress is my lucky charm. Later more on that ;)
Fashion Week started the earliest for me on that day at 10 am. I was late and with my highheels in hand and in flip flops I ran all the way from the train station to the Fashion Week Tent.

Am 3 Tag der Fashion Week strahlte ich in meinem neuen Jones+Jones Kleid. Das Kleid ist wie mein Glücksbringer. Aber später dazu mehr ;)
Der Tag startete für mich um 10 Uhr. Ich war spät dran und mit meinen Highheels in der Hand und meinen Flip Flops an den Füßen, rannte ich von der S-Bahn zum Zelt.
