Fatima Lopes AW 13/14 Paris Fashion WeeK

So I take back everything I said on Monday, I am not just a lucky lucky girl.....this week all my dreams came true! Yes that's right, my dreams all came true. Not one fashion show this week, but two! All thanks to this fantastically fabulous guy right here, who managed to get invited himself to all the hottest shows in town and kindly invited me along to Fatima Lopes' show yesterday. What a darling. 

Check us out with our fantastic seats, looking the part! 

Beautiful show programme, it was even scented.

Look at these two blogging away, so on it and up-to-date.

The show was fantastic and we were treated to structured and '3D' designs all in beautiful shades of blue and black. I have long been told that blue and black together are a big fashion faux pas and I am so  relieved that Ms Lopes's collection proved all those people wrong with her chic and modern designs. 

I mean, any designer who designs all their pieces around the shaping and light reflection of a diamond gets my vote! The show was entitled "prism" and was reflected in the asymmetric use of pattern and the models sported dead-straight hair and simple makeup. The inter-mingling of the male and female collections created a much more natural show, using outfits to complement each other. 

Here is a little video for you, check it out. 

I have been very, very cheeky and stolen (with consent) the photos of the show, taken by the talented miss EU (Here) as she decided to muscle into the pit and therefore her photos far surpass mine.

Mood- One happy little lady

Nino Bollag AW 13/14 Paris Fashion Week

I have been a very very very lucky girl this week. Not only did I manage to wangle my way into a private tour of the Dali exhibition but I was invited by the beautiful IS to the Nino Bollag show for Paris fashion week. Life aim completed. The show was held at the exquisite Le Royal Monceau Raffles hotel and we were treated like absolute royalty the whole evening. The show was screened onto a large cinema screen rather than being a live runway which allowed the clothes to be shown is such detail and was a really quirky and unique idea. 

  IS reading about the impending apocalypse! 

The collection show was entitled "The Day of Trouble is Near" and was based around the impending apocalypse with the models walking in a desolate quarry under-pass with grungy tousled hair and dark makeup. Oh so fashionable. 

Block colours and oversized tailoring were the name of the game for Nino Bollag with the occasional splash of print. In my opinion it was an exciting and original collection. Check it out. 

After the show the pieces were available for viewing and we had a quick chat with the designer about nature, in particular flocks of birds as being the inspiration behind the collection. Of course the evening was not complete without several glasses of Moet et Chandon and people watching, as well taking as a few cheeky snaps. 

Such a treat! 
Here is a little video that I captured of the show

Mood- Utterly spoilt!
