Anna Piaggi = FASHION ICON

Red lipstick, eclectic styling, the godmother of Anna Dello Russo and friend of Karl Lagerfeld ... I am talking about Anna Piaggi, of course... she is an Italian writer and journalist working for Vogue Italia. Today's post is going to be devoted to her, the woman,who I have always admired for her amazing approach to fashion. Anna Piaggi died a few weeks ago, but despite this she will remain the fashion icon, who can be the example for everyone.

Anna Piaggi was an incredibly talented woman. She was fluent in six languages, and his career began in the 60's of the last century in magazines: "Panorama", "Vanity", "Arianna" and in the 70's his life and work tied with the Italian edition of "Vogue". Anna explained many texts related to fashion and design in various languages​​ and she was responsible for the graphical issues photo shoot for "Vogue".

MIX OF PIX PART 1

Fashionable businessman

My today's stylization will be this time in business style. In Poland, unfortunately, certain rules regarding about uniforms has not yet been introduced. I am thinking of wearing short shorts to jackets :) In many countries it is becoming more and more common. Polish men are very conservative in terms of clothing, but it is getting better! Men more often wear colorful tie and socks to dark suits ... Keep it up, gentlemen!
My outfit is perfect for the business lunch in fashionable style :P I find it difficult to determine what really is the most important part of stylization, because each element has a different character. I like combining something obvious with not obvious and it probably gives me more and more fun :)

Blazer is my next pearl of second-hand. But I do not like the color gray in 100%, so I decided to revive it with white buttons. I wore cream shorts with white shirt, which I love because the colored cuffs perfectly is in my climate. Instead, I put a tie on a wide neon necklace, because in the end is styling for lunch, so I do not rigidly adhere to the principles of wearing a uniform ^^ The hat, in which I feel like a dwarf and glasses like John Lennon with drawers, make the styling not formal, but still elegant.

I must say about accesories. Leather bag was styled to alligator skin, which is incredibly durable and I hope that it will be with me for few seasons. The bag is a project of Mariusz Przybylski, a Polish designer who really has a vivid imagination  I have chosen classic shoes with tassels, while the modern watch is base element of business outfit so it must be here too! :)
I leave you with pictures!:*

ZUO CORP fashion show AW 2012/13

I had the opportunity to see some time ago at the Politechnika Warszawska the fashion show of Zuo Corp for the autumn-winter 2012/13. I won't remember it with great enthusiasm. Of course, many Web sites, newspapers, television expressed different opinions about the show, so I would like to present my emotions, which accompanied by me that evening.

Show attracted many visitors and the queue was very loooooong, I felt that I was in it for hours, and the outside temperature was almost 100 degrees... but  I counted to 10000000000 and I got finally myself inside :) I must admit that the interior of the hall made a great impression on me and I felt like the hero in a fairy tale. Lighting, music, setting .... Everything seemed to be great! After a long delay, the show began. Models in black veils slowly steped out into the center of the room and each of them became on the shining pedestals. The collection titled "Jungle Gardenia" is a form of pure fun, a little geometry and the use of different materials. I refer to laser-trimmed coat, patterned embossed polyester, wool or leather. Subdued colors, predominant color of claret, coffee, black, and orange in the form of inserts in the material. At the end of the show was presented a ballgown made ​​of compacted snow texture of silk, embroidered with crystals and lace. Dress for most of the guests did not impress me, in the contrast to the fact that it was worth 35 000 PLN. Overall, the collection is no so much coherent but I like the leather clothing, especially flared skirts from the 50s :)

Meeting in Deja vu...

Recently I was invited to a meeting with German designer Brigitte Gertz-Ziegler ... probably you don’t know who is she :) Well, Brigitte is a founder of the brand Deja vu, which sells watches. After many years,when brand launch a new, unique, original watches, Deja vu has become increasingly recognized in Europe and this year opened its first store in Warsaw. What is unique about the idea of this brand? First of all, everyone can individually create a watch which will match the dress and style. It really is the perfect solution for people who care about every detail in their styling ^^

Meeting with the designer in the office lounge of Deja vu passed very pleasantly. Well, but this famous German ability to be frank, friendly and to make the most out of lifeenjoy life. That is why I like about being in Berlin :) The meeting was also attended by the stylists from different magazines, including Anna Męczyńska, Marcin Świderek, Zuzanna Lewandowska, photographers, and other bloggers. At the meeting, each of us could talk about the idea of the brand with Brigitte, who also has the ability to recognize signs of the zodiac of other people. It's very funny :D In addition, anyone can create her/his own watch, which design expresses our style and personality! That is what I like about those watches that we can play the role of designers in the palm of your pearls.
And besides, there was also a very tasty treat! So good that after the meeting I didn’t fit to door of subway ^^ A few days later I made a dessert with rocket salad and meat with almonds <3

Paprocki&Brzozowski fashion show AW 2012/13

The fashon show of the latest collection of Paprocki&Brzozowski brand for autumn-winter 2012 is behind us. This event attracted a lot of guests, actors, presenters and other celebrities :) It was the next show in Soho Factory in Warsaw, which I could not miss, especially that I follow closely a brand created by the guys and I appreciate that collections are getting better and better. And you can see that the designers are also open to new forms and materials! Besides, do you know that for two years I was a student of Mariusz Brzozowski, who taught me the design and styling :D

Well, coming back to the show .... the vast number of the guests made everybody very excited and all of the people were eagerly waiting for the start of the show. There was also a surprising scenography, since the catwalk had the U-shape and not I-shape as usually :) Above the catwalk there was a neon sign saying "Hotel", which also made us thinking ...

This time the inspiration for the designers to create a collection was Andy Warhol and his film "Chelsea Girls," which talked about the beautiful women living in the Chelsea Hotel. Models on the catwalk were reallybeautiful, all looked like the two peas in a pod. Many sites on the Internet criticized these models, because their hair and makeup allegedly diverted attention from the clothes that they were wearing. The same hairstyle models doesn’t disturb me and I could be delighted with the collection and music, which also was the advantage of the events that evening.

Fairy tale about Bizuu

Recently I was invited to the presention of the latest collection of Bizuu in the boutique of that brand. Of course, I accepted the invitation, since I've heard about this brand earlier. More recently, in the spring edition of Fashion Week Poland (where the account you can read HERE) I had a chance to see their show, which was hailed with huge applause, and received a lot of positive comments in the press. Well, I'm not surprised because the clothes from Bizuu are from an excellent material, ultrafeminine and that subtle forms of nonchalance, which can be seen in dresses, jackets and skirts.
 

As for the interior of the boutique, I must admit that it is a paradise in terms of architecture and composition. Raw heated interior accessories in pastel colors give an incredibly delicate and feminine just like collections of brand :)  I could live in a place most gladly like sipping champagne, eating strawberry and write new post on my blog ^^

Clothes of collections, which you can see  in a boutique on the Koszykowa Street in Warsaw are really a dream of every woman. Lace, tulle, cotton, colors, turquoise, mint, pastels ... Isn't it sensual and romantic? In addition, you can see here the clothes of the autumn-winter collection. These, however, are made ​​from a more sophisticated materials. Collection mixes classical elements such as lace and Chanel-like wools with nylon and faux fur.
In the boutique you can also get a great add-ons: a nice, colorful bags or interesting in the form of footwear. In addition, brand cooperate with other companies. These include, among others, Triwa brand whose watches, which I adore <3
 

I must also mention about my outfit . I don’t know if it's a coincidence or is this my extraordinary intuition, but I fit in very well to the color of the the prevailing climate in the boutique. In addition, a bicycle ... it looks as if it belongs to me! ^^ Well, pink bicycle for man is a crummy choice, which does not change the fact that the decor of Bizuu is fabulous :D
