just peachy at chloe

|| The final instalment of the fashion week series has come to you all a little bit late. I was out of town and fashion had to wait. Apart from some interesting developments happening in my blogosphere (more on this soon), some interesting things happened at Paris fashion week. Designers waving goodbye, designers celebrating and designers facelifting. So here it all is. It is a long one, but oh so nice to look at. ||

ballet at jil sander

|| So before I get all fashion on your asses, to all of you people actually coming to visit my blog ‘Thanks!’ This year has seen the hits on this blog soar to almost triple of what they used to be. So that’s nice. Now onto Milan. With a range of usually over the top eccentric designers Milan does not normally show a lot of designers that I am really into. With the likes of Roberto Cavalli (read Master of Leopard) it all tends to get a bit showy – of course that is excluding Master of Simplicity Itself, Raf Simons. With his final collection at Jil Sander Raf turned all the models into ballet teachers. Tune in next week for some more house of fashion drama as other favourites leave some big names behind.
So this season I actually had trouble picking favourites, with ol’ Master Leopard ranking in pretty high! ||

|| Yes, its that time of the year again: Fashion Week. With the onslaught of these weeks careening through cities across the world it seems almost impossible to keep up with what has been shown. There are loads of designers out there man! So I though what I would do is round up of each city’s highlights – according to me. So here is numero uno – New York. ||
