My New York Fashion Week Diary

18 September 2013

It took me a while to find enough time to do nothing for several hours in a row but write this article for you. It’s gonna be long and passionate – and I hope exicting, but let’s not be too sure about that…

(more than 15 hours to be totally honest, including the time I spent selecting my pictures and the responding delay of my exhausted Macbook).

Let’s get in the atmosphere…

DAY 1

I woke up early on Friday and jumped in a yellow cab to join the lovely Kenza and be introduced to Mathilde and Julie, to … READ MORE

Before putting online my report from the Fashion Week (it’s coming, I promise), here are some pictures of last week’s outfit (that you could see in my article about Comptoir des Cotonniers Mademoiselle Plume padded jacket).

As I told you a while ago, I’m a big fan on UNIQLO silk collection. After my polka dot silk blouse, here is a pretty silk shirt dress, from Celia Birtwell prints series, that I hope you’ll like !

I was telling you a while ago about the new Kenzo fragrance « Flower in the air » (my article here).

Last week, just a few hours before catching my plane for New York, I and a bunch of blogger friends attented a special event organized to launch this new fragrance.

Kenzo’s crazy dream : launching this new fragrance in the sky, with the help of a stratospheric balloon equipped with a GPS and a camera that took many completely crazy pictures !

This fragrance launch was part of a Facebook game (still a few days to play !). … READ MORE

–       it is reversible, so you can wear it with everything.

New York Fashion Week is coming to an end !

I am torn between saying : « Finally ! » ‘cause I’m so exhausted, and « Already ? », ‘cause it was really neat.

Today, before telling you about this intense and amazing week, let me show you a pretty special outfit. Let me explain…

As you might already know, people used to go to a fashion show wearing the designer’s clothes. A matter of manner and courtesy, at a time when the purpose of the collections was to seduce the loyal customers.

I guess that back then, obviously, you … READ MORE

After a month of intense preparations, after my wedding (I’ll tell you more about it when the time comes), after 48 hours in Paris to carry out three nice projects (I’ll tell you about that as well, I promise !), I jumped on my plane to go home to my first New York Fashion Week.

Since then, I’ve been running between my place, the Lincoln Center where most of the shows take place, and diners and cocktails parties in the craziest spots ! I’m having so much fun but I’m in such a rush !!

Since I’ve been back, I … READ MORE
