Today...wear it the other way...







I really, really like the soft, elegant and clean casual-chic of Penkov´s Designs. The fact that some of those pieces also offer the possibility to redesign themselves - as shown in the following pictures - make them even more appealing.





Bernadett Penkov was born in Hungary and moved to Germany when she was 4. Before studying fashion design and pattern making at ESMOD, Berlin, she studied Economics and Psychology in Düsseldorf . Penkov won the Moet & Chandon Fashion Debut twice and showcased her work, together with Chanel and Lacroix as many other top designers, at the Blythe dolls exhibition in the Galleries Lafayette in Berlin.

Deryck Walker - SS 2008

Two very different but in a way also similar designs from the SS 08 collection. The playfulness on the left picture, overlied and reduced to a minimum ... on the right side the simple and conceptual Basic Design overgrown by appliquées.

Armand Basie SS 2008


I really like the colour combination. And this orange belt ist just great with the fluffy volume of the skirt and the casual looseness of the cardigan. The fact that you cannot see much more than the belt buckle together with the signal colour of it, gives the impression of a slim waist and prevents the look from beeing too volume-overpowered.


I would say this is the light version. Muted colours and reduced volume. But nevertheless again a superb material combination.

Baby´s got back...




SS 2008 "Utopia"

Something I often miss when looking at beautiful clothes and fashion photographs is the possibility to get another view on pieces. Usually you just get to see the front. On http://www.hartmannnordenholz.com/ you have the opportunity to get a more complete impression of the outfits through several images taken from different angles. Thanks for that.
