a piece of Paris for breakfast

 It happened so, that we were passing by Paris in our crazy d-tour these weekends. Waking up in Paris I didn't know whether I was hungry for fashion or food.

  On my way to Ralph's I was dropping in Collete, YSL and others. But what caught my eye is street fashion. I got a bit jealous, that I'm Russian, got to cultivate my style, while Frenchman was born with it.

So meanwhile my rush-walk I captured the French vision of the world....

The fashion show from Jos van Raak

Autumn is here! Autumn is not only romantic walks in the park and thoughtful looks in the future, autumn is the FASHION. Don't you miss wearing cashmere coats and botillions and the autumn colours in clothing? As to me, I love autumn fashion more than summer fashion.

 Meanwhile London Fashion week just started, Amsterdam also is heating up the autumn. Yesterday all fashion people were in the Westergasfabriek, where Raak shop was giving its seasonal fashion show.

Let's unpack the show!

controversy in Fashion

Do you like this girl?

Meantime it's not a girl. It's an Australian model Andrej Pejic (Ukrainian routes) who is successfully performing in a fashion world as a FEMALE model.
Firstly Carine Roitfeld  offered Andrej to try out himself as a female model in a French Vogue.
From now on he is working as a female model more successful than as a male model. You can see him on a runway, in a magazine competing on equal with world famous models. 

Another controversy I couldn't miss  is the layout in French Vogue for December.
Is it a propaganda of fashion in early age or a willingness to demonstrate how fashion is penetrating in us from early days!?  Are they going to far with this photo shoot or is fashion is going too far?
