the land bank afterparty

B: After fashion it's time for afterparty! With The Land Bank as venue, Dino DJing and loads of models and fashionistas attending, all the ingredients were there last night for a proper finale. We just had to worry about our own outfits and where to go AFTER the after party ;) *The Land Bank, Cape Town *Lace dress M: The Edge by Supertrash/ Tweet coat B: Hugo Boss

M: I'm a big MAC fan and shooting behind the scenes at a fashionshow is the perfect job to pick up on new trends! Michelle Collins was the artist of the colorful and sexy look for the Undacova & Dax Martin shows.  She and her colleagues also introduced me (Miss-Nude-Look ;)) to my new love: bright and glammy Vegas Volt. A winner coral shade that looks stunning on pretty much everyone... *Check it out: MAC Cosmetics website

show abigail betz

B: I used to walk down the ramp at Fashion Week, but this time I could just sit down and watch. Holla :) Abigail Betz came up with a serene show: lots of pales, beachy decor and fresh 'nude' models. Short but sweet. The only thing that was missing at the end of the show was Mrs. Betz herself... *Cape Town Fashion Week 2011/ For more pictures of the show: see official AFI website.

flashback joburg fashion week

M: One week to go before Cape Town Fashion Week starts. Can't wait! It makes me remind of the Joburg  edition earlier this year. I remember designers and models stressing out backstage. Or killing their time reading and sms-ing before the can enter the ramp. On the final day of JBFW it was designer Abigail Keats' turn. Great lady; mature collection. Unfortunately I can only shoot her show as it's the first. When miss Keats appeared on the ramp, I rushed back to my laptop for the edit. It's Heni's collection though that blew me away in Joburg. Just loved the naughty schoolgirl look and the styling 'au Pierrot' totally works. Let's see what Cape Town will bring... *Joburg Fashion Week 2011/ For more info: see official AFI website.
