Twenty(2)too & Lucian Broscatean really surprised me – they were two of the labels who represented Romania at Berlin Fashion week and added variety to the often so similar looking designs that were being shown at the fashion week. The black and white designs might remind you of Cruella DeVille but in a quirky and edgy way that just ...
I don’t know how she does it! – I always ask the same question. Why does it obviously look so easy? So easy to create something so commercial and simple. But you always get caught by it. Something random on couple of pieces don’t let it go out of your mind…
I’m still bemused by a comment I received on facebook today which then miraculously disappeared. It was the following “How can anyone wearing h&m and forever 21 be called best dressed? sorry. weiß schon dass das ein gemeiner comment ist aber im Ernst…” Oh my keep on being patronising girl. And I thought it would be ...
It was all the way back in October when Karl Lagerfeld, the distinguished Chanel helmer revealed to the world he would be launching ‘Karl’ – a new, affordable women’s wear label. The collection will be rock ‘n’ roll inspired with prices starting from €60 (£52). We were told to expect the collection in January and ...
Based in the lovely city of Berlin, in 2010 a bunch of young creative individuals found each other, brought together by designer Malaika Raiss, to create the essential collections fort he self-named fashion label. Willing to put their heart, soul, experience and knowledge into it and start that risky business. The Malaika Raiss look is positive, ...
Day number two of Berlin Fashion Week wasn’t less exciting – I put together my favourite pieces of my favourite designers. SO here you go – first is Karlotta Wilde who presented her collection in the studio and instead of letting models wear the clobber she decided to hand mannequins from the wall. I totally love the grey/sand coloured ...
Mongrels in Common sent very androgynous, stern looking models over the catwalk who wore very straigh-cut pieces without accentuating the waist, but then on the other side also skirts that made the waist stand out. And from the looks of it, material mix is still a topic at Mongrels in Common. Lots of dark berry ...
Finally, the whole game of cat and mouse seems to be over – you can listen to and watch two full songs of Arthur Beatrice: “Charity” and “What We Hoped To Achieve” (you were able some time ago – but I’ve only just discovered it). I like Charity especially and the rhythmic melodies twining with ...

Simon managed to catch the shows and presentations of Lena Hoschek, Mongrels in Common, Rebecca Ruetz and Von Bardontiz for frockazine.com and frock&roll on the first official fashion week day. Unfortunatelly missed out on the amazing showcase of Augustin Teboul and Wood Wood, who never really seem to fail our taste.
Some time ago I did an interview with the ladies behind Augustin Teboul for the second issue of frock&roll talking about their now old collection. Augustin Teboul that is Annelie Augustin and Odély Teboul who met during studying fashion design at Esmod Paris. Up until they founded their own French-German label, they had worked for Y-3 and ...
‘Which shows will you attend the next days?!’ So often I heard people saying this today! And so many of those faces will obviously been seen tmw! But before the big rush to the shows is going to start, I took one day off before the huge spectacle! …
