FIERCENESS OF LANVIN

Augustine Wong — Sun, 08 Jan 2012 15:30:01 +0000

The one and only Fierce, LANVIN. The show was held inside the tent in Tuileries during the heatwave in the autumn. The hottness of it transformed into the power of woman, the fluidity of her, the fierceness of her, the glow of her. Its how amazing that Alber Elbaz transformed each of the model into a powerwoman.

10 THINGS TO DO WHEN WAITING A SHOW ABOUT TO START

Augustine Wong — Sat, 07 Jan 2012 16:37:54 +0000

From what I see during fashion week, most of the fashion shows are delayed or postpone around an hour. So what would all the fashionista do when they are waiting and waiting and keep waiting for a show about to start? lets count 1 to 10 to see what they most likely to do.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

#1 SAY HI!
In order to kill time, the first thing they would do is to saying hi to the people they know, even they hi them in every show.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

#2 PLAYING BLACKBERRY / IPHONE
The second best thing is to play blackberry / iphone to kill the waiting time…

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

#3 GOSSIP
Another good things to do is to GOSSIP! Gossip about what someone did or who with who… its really a good thing to do when waiting a boring time.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

#4 READING MAGAZINES
Most of the time outside the show will be loads of people handing out free magazines for you to read, its really useful when waiting a fashion show about to start, especially its really boring, reading magazines is one of the good choices.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

#5 TAKE A NAP
When you really feel tired and exhausted during the day after shows and shows, the boring waiting time will turn to a powernap time, which you will automatically falls asleep. But its kind of embarrassing.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

#6 POSE!
All the paparazzi are inside the show too! No matter you are celebrity or you just sit next to the celebrity, you will always got some shots, so fix your hair and got snapped! Pose, pose, pose!

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

#7 BLOGGING
The best thing to kill time is to blog blog blog. Either you are professional bloggers or celebrity or editors or fashionistas, blogging definitely kill time and makes sure your blog is keep updating! Its a good habit to do.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

#8 FIXING THE LOOK
Most likely your look is perfect outside the show, given all the street photographers shot your perfect look, its really a good time to fix your look before the show starts and lights up and before you go back out of the show.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

#9 PAPER FAN
A paper fan can save your life during the spring summer season, as last time in Paris, suddenly they got heatwave which everyone was underestimate the heatness of it. A paper fan can cool you down and actually its a good props for posing.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

#10 FAKE LAUGH
As if you are paparazzi, you want some shots that is ugly and truth. This is the time that all the celebrity is faking it, try to do a fake laugh to let everybody knows they are really good friends (I am not saying that they aren’t). But a fake laugh can produce a really good shot and a really good harmony mood. Haha.

We all know her through the lens of tommy ton, streetfsn, phil oh, and other street styles photographers. She is well-known by her lovely smile and her fabulous dresses. She is Vika Gazinskaya from Moscow. My friend and I went to her showroom and took a little visit. Her S/S12 collection is base on her cute sketches and drawings which turns out a bold signature print of her.
