The Alternative
Allaire Heisig @ Ford (NY)
You never see much when you get too close to the (spot-)lights and same should be true for fashion week as well. You never know as less as when you actually attend it, when you concentrate too much on the moment and get caught by the rush. That's how you might miss a couple of details you would have seen sitting at your desk, watching carefully everything. But hey, a little (and that was actually a lot) of action doesn't hurt or if it does, it's for good reasons. So, during the whole New York coverage we... [Lire la suite]22-09-09
TMSRRE part 13: Marike
Marike @ Wilhelmina (NY)
"You are what you wear it's true". According to this, Marike is a true treasure, after a hectic week in NY. Even if we would just remember Marc Jacobs and Marc by Marc Jacobs among the several other high level shows walked, it's a real event and calls for celebration. Or at least to drop a few lines like we're doing right now. Marike or the secret cooking at Wilhelmina leading to a sensational creature able to catch any coveted catwalk. Count the silhouette (oh la la, legs... [Lire la suite]16-09-09
TMSRRE part 7: Paulina
Paulina Nierodzik @ Mango (Poland), Next (NY)
She walks and it walks. In French we use that idiomatic expression to say something is going well - ça marche, literally it walks. French words that brings back some good old memories from Paris, back to the day we met Paulina Nierodzik for the first time, backstage at Vivienne Westwood. The young lady, found and cherished by Next Paris went her own way little by little, step by step before arriving in New York. First season, hopes reloaded and better beware if you didn't believe in... [Lire la suite]08-10-08
Some McCann moments
Laragh McCann @ Women (NY)
A bit more than one month ago, just a few days before NY fashion week we thought about an article on Laragh McCann. It turned into a longer post than expected and was finally called Twiglight raspberries and misty mélopées for various random reason. Build with polas and a part of her showcard where she was pictured with that lovely newsboy-cap, the detail that intrigued us and led to such a huge article was her incredible ability to embody various characters for the need of very different runway...

TMSRRE part 3: Ediely
Ediely Scapinello @ Muse (NY)
Part three. We don't know how many parts this series will include, we just feel Ediely might be a real milestone. For various reasons. One of them could be that there are only two days left in NY and if those are meant to be among the most suprising of the whole week, there is a remarkable amount of things and facts that can be considered as important enough to be mentinoned in our articles. Ediely's first steps are a part of them. The Brazilian at Muse deserves more than a few lines even if she... [Lire la suite]13-02-08
NY f/w 08-09
What happens when I see some safe, soft, sound clothing while I wanted some saucy, sassy, spicy creations ? What happens when I wanna be delighted and I have to fear so much of being bored before the end ? What happens... What happened ? Actually nothing ever happens in NY during the fashion week. Nothing bad or good, nothing thrilling, nothing at all. Marc Jacobs doesn't exist, he's just a dream I had for a few seasons and I'm waking up and he's not there anymore. Where is Marc ? Nowhere. Where's nowhere ? Nowhere. What are those... [Lire la suite]
