Experiencing Paris Fashion Week

Paris Fashion Week Instagrams

We really want to say thanks to Who’s Next Paris to let us experience these amazing 5 days in Paris. We finally had the chance to check out Paris Fashion Week, see the shows of our fav Bernhard Willhelm as well as Walter van Beirendonck and Damir Doma, dance at the fabulous Flash Cocotte party, meet some great young designers at the Who’s Next fair and browse through giant vintage mountains. All things we just loved. We also had some really weird and funny experience. We saw a crazy and very entertaining catwalk fashion musical at Who’s Next, we met some giant vampire drag queens at Place de la Concorde and found a little hotel with an antique harp in the attic. So beautiful and strange! See all impressions of our lovely trip after the jump.

Bernhard Willhelm AW12/13 Runway GIFs

Bernhard Willhelm AW 12/13 Show

It was a little bit the highlight of our trip to Paris: the Autumn Winter 2012/13 fashion show of Bernhard Willhelm who happens to be one of my favorite designers since I saw his great installation presentation in Berlin in 2009. We also saw the shows of Walter van Beirendonck, that we also liked a lot, as well as Damir Doma who gave a very impressive runway show. But the Willhelm show made me particularily happy because it was also the most enjoyable collection in recent saisons and I’m looking forward to see it in the shops. Enjoy my partly animated runway photos after the jump.

Jam & Toast – Vintage Fair Berlin

Toast & Jam

photos: ichbineinbaum.de

Saturday is the perfect day for flea markets. But with today’s rainy weather the Toast & Jam was the perfect alternative. The Vintage Fashion Fair took place for the first time ever in these last three days. Fashion, furniture and accessories from various decades are for sale and finest Vintage Couture pieces are on offer next to no-name knitted jumpers. Exberliner magazine and Nowkoelln Flowmarkt initiated the Vintage Fashion Market and promise: „Bygone trends will be rediscovered.“ Anne Poprausch, winner of the Vintage Smackdown, was one of the 30 selected sellers „I am thrilled“ she told us „ I didn’t think the Bread & Butter crowd would come to see us, but the two worlds actually mixed. I’d definitely do it again, if I’m invited!“

And we´ll certainly come back. Because instead of wasting the day going from one place to the other, we loved having more time to browse! Check all info about the sellers, party and of course all our photos after the Jump.

Who’s Next Paris – Day 2: Urban Wear

Bleans Je Vovis

After seeing jaw-dropping fashion shows yesterday surrounded by all the fabulous people Paris has to offer, walking around over the urbanwear exhibition Mr. Brown at the Who’s Next Paris today was quite relaxing. I encountered one label I was totally fond of and made me want to meet more young designers. The unisex clothes at the little both of Bleans Je Vovis had the right mix of cool and chic that made me want everything of it ;-)

Frank was a fan of the cheaky, sexy and casual aesthetic of French street label Elevenparis. Overall we liked the playfull attempt of some labels to inspire the visitors with the funniest installations and we liked listening to the bands playing during the day.

More impressions of the giant urban and menswear trade show Mr. Brown after jump.

Who’s Next Paris – Day 1: Accessories

Andres Gallardo

Here we are at last: Paris Fashion Week. We were invited by Who’s Next Paris Prêt-à-Porter trade show to discover the world of fashion in Paris. And what a big world it is. When we arrived at the grounds of the trade show at Portes de Versailles we were a bit shocked of how huge it is. The 6-fairs-in-one event is hosted in 4 big halls that make you feel very small. Hundreds if not thousands of brands from all over the world are exhibiting their latest collections here.

On our first day we decided to start with the jewellery and accessories exhibition of Première Class. While browsing through the first hall of shoes we rediscovered the British shoe label United Nude that we though was the most edgy and intersting one of the whole exhibition. Of course the Eiffel Tour Heel was also quite charming…

After the shoes we took a look at all the jewellery labels in the next hall. Here we especially liked the wonderful porcelain jewellery of Spanish designer Andres Gallardo and the laser-cut leather accessories by Italien label C.A. 2. After the jump you will find our favorite finds of the exhibition as well as our outfits of the day.

Day 2 of Berlin Fashion Week was all about fashion shows and presentations for us. The day started exciting with a little visit to the backstage area of the JULIAANDBEN show at the studio of the official Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week tent. The Berlin cult label had their first ever runway show with our Designer Scouts event at HBC back in 2010. Now they made it into the official tent and delivered a great collection. See the backstage photos and the show impressions after the jump followed by the shows and parties of Von Bardonitz, Augustin Teboul, Wood Wood and Reality Studio on 4 pages.

Who’s Next – Our first trip to Paris Fashion Week

Come for Breakfast

We’ve been to London, we’ve been to Tokyo, we’ve been to Madrid, we’ve been to Berlin, obviously, visiting each cities official Fashion Weeks. But never have we been to the mother of all Fashion Weeks and the one that is still considered the most important one in the world: Paris Fashion Week. The biggest trade shows take place here and the most important international brands and designers have their shows in this beautiful city. The whole affair in fact is so huge that it gets split in three parts: Menswear Fashion Week, which sadly always coincides with Berlin Fashion Week, the Haute Couture Week that happens right after and finally the main Womenswear Fashion Week a few months later.

But this season it’s actually going to happen: iHeartBerlin.de goes Paris Fashion Week thanks to the Who’s Next trade show, the biggest one of its kind, who invited us over to take a look at what’s going on in Paris. We’re super excited and can’t wait to go over their this Friday. We’ll be covering our findings on the trade show on a daily basis and of course we’ll also use the opportunity to check out a few other events during Paris Fashion Week. To find out a little more about Who’s Next Paris you should read on after the jump.
