Hits:
We loved Twenty Seven Names and Juliette Hogan because everything
was so beautiful and feminine and romantic yet so thoroughly
modern:
We loved the huge pussy bows, the soft palettes of apricots and
nude tones and the amazing capes-style dresses.
The film at Nom D. it was beautifully shot, so evocative and mysterious and more than slightly insane, loony-bin-esque (so fitting for Fashion Week!)
Films were all the rage at fashion week thanks to the likes of Cybele, Nom D, & Lonely Hearts.
We LOVED Pammy and Richie and Rich and all the excitement that came with it especially the half-naked models.
Misses:
United Constructions. A terrible show. We lost our love of fashion
whilst this was on, but on the upside, the June Dally-Watkins style
(so 80's) runway choreography was highly amusing.
Stolen Girlfriends Club. Arriving in torrential rain in a dodgy
Masonic hall and waiting outside of the venue for what seemed like
hours getting completely drenched to the marrow.
Not good a look, or was it? Hey, that wet, lank hair and sour look
on the face was so fashion forward!.
Not meeting Pammy after thinking it was so going to happen.
We could of shimmied in through a back passage to the Pammy A*Muse show but we were halted immediately by a burly security guard who tried to use Style Blog's faces as lemon squeezers (the face was the lemon).
Best Party:
Naturellement, the Moet & Chandon party at the start of
Fashion Week where everyone was wearing the same Trelise Cooper
frock (See the front page of "The Dominion" 22.9.09).
The delicious champagne flowed like water, the canapés were divine and the eye candy was HOT! Dan Carter and co&need we say more?
Must have item:
Non- Practical - If you're feeling like a bit of drama (Think
Stevie Nicks spinning around the stage belting out the words to
Edge of Seventeen.) The long black, gothic looking Knowledge Dress
worn as a coat from Cybele
Just throw it on over tights and a tee to glam up. Add sky high heels and you're good to go.
Practical - The ivory tiered Juliette Hogan dress teamed back with the long lined navy blazer: so cute. We loved, loved, loved it.
Most exciting celeb:
While we loved Richie Rich, he was so much fun, so funny
and sweet (We hung out with him front row at the Kate Sylvester
show and at the MAC/GHD bar at fashion week HQ.), but of course it
was Pammy herself.
She's so fun, happy and wild! Quite the antithesis of Fashion week, where Fashionistas are way "too cool for school" to break out a smile.
Pammy couldn't understand why models in other shows weren't smiling and why they looked half-dead! But that's fashion baby.
What a breath of fresh air, yay for Pammy.
