As a big fan of emerging fashion week circuit, I could not wait for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Berlin - It 's always interesting to see how many try to create an identity for local tailoring. But a funny thing happened on the way Bebelplatz, the historic square as the place Tented BFW. After spending 17 days straight fashion shows, fashion, first in Rio, Sao Paulo Fashion Week and the Paris couture, and finally, I was no longer a state of mind not to declare my support for the designer.
Fashion Week Berlin to take the same standards as the seam is clear does not make sense, but the show the audience seemed perplexed, as if they were invited to an exclusive Ritz Paris Soiree. Maybe they have seen too many episodes syndicated "The life of the rich and famous." Instead of the distillation of a powerful German-aesthetic and develop public relations and marketing infrastructure required for successful real people are more focused on blowing kisses champagne and indulging in dreams of caviar.
Which is a shame, because there was some solid talent on display. The most successful designers translated the German aspects of the city and modern aesthetics in the collections that had been asked to appeal. Scherer Gonzalez made a deluxe dressage sheared mink with capelets, herringbone jodhpurs, riding jackets and evening extravaganza of showstoppers, this season has been an appeal to the fashion.

Sisi Wasabi tailored jackets, dresses and touches of chiffon jagged so elegant tuxedo cheap, but avoided falling into a trap stopped. Beautiful silk dresses padded hips was a trend that emerged in Paris in Dior and Elie Saab, an apparent response to our dire financial situation as a silhouette visibly fertile.
Lac et Mel is a very commercial collection made from a confrontation with a dress designed with € 100,000 worth of diamonds, a smart strategy of PR that actually captured the attention of the press.
Bernard Willhelm has been an international attraction, this time, the next steps platformed of Vivienne Westwood, who showed here last season. Willhelm chose typically zany, off-site installation, which was fun and full of colorful prints, and art pieces that are well adapted to the city known as Street Style.
The sample was not left without its share of stars - Boris Becker and Milla Jovovich were the main attractions, respectively, Strenesse Blue and Black Hugo Boss, secondary lines like Calvin Klein, Vera Wang Lavender Label White and (I sense a trend toward color distribution lines) and model Julia Stegner, the new face of Maybelline and official ambassador for Mercedes-Benz, was also present - but that's not why people come BFW If you are interested in the list of B celebrity spotting, then head of Los Angeles, but if BFW is becoming a serious design showcase for the German fashion, then it must adopt an attitude that life is more real and less of the Project "runway."
Joop! Joop!
If there was a presentation that made an impression that it was particularly great Joop! Mega show 'at the Hamburger Bahnhof S blue-lit history. The show was cast with a gratin of the universe models: Maria Carla (who curiously absent from Givenchy fashion show, prompting some to wonder if she gave up and Riccardo), Natasha Poly, Alanna Zimmer, Tanya D Vlada Roslyakov. The clothes were designed and sober, with controlled doses of brilliance, but the most exciting moment came when Tanya D heel broke and without breaking his stride Glamazon, it still works with a needle intact and his second foot on the toes. Now that professionalism.
