Nikolas a|w 2011

Lately I have attended lot of fashion shows, a fact that makes me completely happy!!!! :D

Yesterday, 19 October 2011,  me and my beloved blogger friends attended NIKOLAS fashion show, who presented his collection for autumn | winter 2011, at Porto Palace Hotel Thessaloniki (GR).

A collection totally dedicated to femme fatale, with clothes inspired from the classic feminine italian style. With references to 50's style, Claudia Cardinalle, Sophia Lauren and Gina Lollobrigita are the first that cross our minds. Classic shapes but at the same time very sensual. Lace, silk, wool and velvet are dominant to the collection. In addition to italian style, a background  inspired from the italian country. 

At a first glance I though this is a collection that my mum would totally adore! But then I started to pay attention to details. The perfect defined waist drew my attention and at the same time relief prints, lace dresses, metalic fabrics and full skirts made me not be bored at all. Lovely detail the shoes and the bags from Zenya.

The domination of black colour and the lack of vivid colours are obvious, but at last, haven't you missed the classic feminine style?

I should mention that a part of the profits will be donated to "Melissa Orphanage". Fashion for a good cause! Like it :)

Also, a new tailor in town, Merkos Manolopoulos presented his menwear collection.

Meet Mary Katrantzou event: backstage fever and a great show

Finally, the post that everybody waits the past two days. Sorry for the delay but  i had shot so many and so nice photos that was difficult to choose and then edit!!!

Last Wednesday I attended Meet Mary Katrantzou event. There was a fashion show with Mary Katrantzou's a/w 2011-2012 collection, but I was really lucky to have the chance not only to be backstage and shot wonderful photos, but also to meet Mary Katrantzou in person. She is such a cute, friendly and down to earth person! Who is Mary Katrantzou check here!

The clothes were full of colours and prints that make up your mood! Also so luxurious with swarovsky gems and silk and nice lines and lot of details! You can stare at them for hours, gazing the prints and never get bored! If you want a dress that would make an impression ....then Mary Katrantzou is for sure your designer!

Also, I would like to say a huge thank you to all the people from  L'oreal and Lancome that gave us the chance to attend this event and embraced us so warm from the very first minute that we were feeling completely relaxed and this was the secret of having a good time! Thank you for everything guys!:)

This was one of the best experiences in my blogging life so far! I am sure I am gonna to remember for a long time and I hope that I will be lucky to attend another show soon!
