Well, what can I tell you, day 3 of New York Fashion Week is almost over and I am still really not impressed. Don’t get me wrong, I am not a hater and I appreciate every collection, it’s just that this time NY Fashion Week seems not as exciting as usually. Maybe I expected too much…. the highlight of Day 2 and 3 for me was seeing Behati Prinsloo at the Lacoste and Arise Fashion Show. She looked really cute and beautiful in both fashion shows. At Arise she wore orange lipstick which suits hardly any woman, but she looked amazing! I also like seeing pictures of her and her boyfriend Jamie, they always look very happy together.

Besides Behati, where are all the other topmodels? Has anyone seen Natasha? Coco? Lily? It’s boring without them…

After speculations whether this year’s Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show will be cancelled or not, it is now confirmed that the 2009 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show will take place in New York City. VS Angel Marisa Miller mentioned it during an interview while she celebrated 10 years of “Body by Victoria”, a bra collection with fellow VS models Alessandra Ambrosio, Emanuela De Paula and - very surprising - Lindsay Ellingson. So I guess the madness of speculation can continue now. Questions like “who will open the show?”, “which models will be part of it?”, “what will pregnant Adriana Lima and Heidi Klum do?” and most of all “who will wear the multi million dollar fantasy bra?” are already asked by curious VS fans. My guess: Either Ale or Miranda or Doutzen will wear the fantasy bra. We’ll know better in a few weeks…

I found my favorite piece of clothing from Copenhagen Fashion Week: The sequin vests from Rützou! Although this sequin trend has been popuar for quit a while now, I am still not over it and appreciate everything glittery on the runways! Those vests can turn a very simple outfit into a party outfit and I especially love the blue one, such an eye-catcher! I think I’ve seen similar ones at the H&M fall/winter collection previews though, so you know what I’m gonna buy soon ; )

Oh I just LOVE the David Jones Fashion Shows. For some reason I always like every single outfit that Miranda Kerr wears and I like the fact that they give her a lot of outfits instead of just one or two. This time it was about 7 outfits I think and Miranda,looking lovely as always, showed off a new haircolor, blonde! She said she dyed it blonde because she had to dye her eyebrows for a photoshoot for “V” magazine and wanted her hair to match. I think she looks great with blonde hair and I’m really impressed by her professional attitude. She is on a plane basically everyday and even got sick last week - still - she doesnt complain but keeps on smiling. Here are her best David Jones outfits….

So there’s this Emiliana Torrini song “Jungle Drum” that is so catchy, I cant even get it out of my head…its also a fav of designers at Fashion Weeks, I think Strenesse Blue used it…

Other than that, believe it or not, MGMT’s “Kids” is still the song that I heard most during Fashion Week. It must have been 6 fashion shows or more where they used this song….I dont mind because I love it, but shouldnt designers come up with something newer?

Busy week for me….have to work a lot….so please be patient with new blog posts, but they will come!

Due to all the Berlin Fashion Week craziness I kinda missed the beautiful Haute Couture Shows in Paris. Shame on me! I checked all the pics today and found some really amazing pieces….Dior was a bit same old same old but nevertheless breathtakingly beautiful, Chanel was surprisingly good and Jean Paul Gaultier seemed a bit like ready to wear except for some pieces. Anyways…always love haute couture…I would give anything to wear Natasha’s Dior dress, just for a few minutes!!!!

Sigh….it was beautiful….so beautiful. The Kaviar Gauche Show was really one of my favorite shows of the Mercedes-Benz Berlin Fashion Week. The dresses were amazing, the fabric was so light and elegant and the way the dresses moved while walking was perfect. The models were really good too and the music choice rocked, agressive Rammstein. If I married soon, I would choose the Kaviar Gauche dress above. More pics taken by William Chung…

Yes, I still cant believe it but I got to do a short interview with topmodel Julia Stegner at the Mercedes-Benz Berlin Fashion Week press conference this morning. Julia looked lovely, wearing a black shirt, beige blazer and light pink pants. She also wore a lot of silver jewellery, lots of beautiful rings, bracelets and necklaces.

When I introduced myself to her she was smiling and said “Hi! I’m Julia!”, really sweet and down to earth. I asked her if she is still looking for an apartment in Berlin, she said yes, but if she finds one that she likes she will buy it as an investment for the future and might move to Berlin in a few years. I asked her if she likes to go shopping in Berlin and if she has some favorite shops, she answered that everytime she’s been to Berlin she never had enough time to go shopping but she would love to do it soon. Julia also told me that she will only be here until thursday thats why she wont walk in any shows but will be in the audience of the Black Coffee and Ramirez fashion show.

That means I’m gonna see her again since I’m also gonna be in the audience of that show : ) I noticed her hair is shorter than usually and she didnt wear much make up and still looked perfect! Gotta love Julia Stegner!

Here are my pictures…

….I want! I just love backstage pictures, don’t you? I think they’re so much more interesting than the actual runway shots. You can see the outfits from different angles and the colors look more real. And group shots like this are the best! You dont get to see the whole collection (or at least half of it) in one picture very often. On this picture you can compare everything and really decide if you like the collection or not. I personally adore the colors of those dresses! The shiny pastel shades look so fresh and lovely…I would wanna have all of those dresses!
