G-Star Raw Award lichting 2011
A little extra hairspray? Check. Shoes? Check. Hats? Check. Bowtie? Check. The preparations of the G-star Raw Lichting 2011 show went very smoothly. Sanne Schepens blew the judges away with her twinset collection and won the award. We were there when she heard the good news and we’ve never seen anyone more excited. Sanne was filled with joy and couldn’t stop smiling. And oops! She almost forgot she had to go back on stage…

Before the AIFW takes over our blog, we would love to share the BOUTYQ-event with you. The fifth edition of BOUTYQ gave a reason to celebrate this great fashionevent. Despite the rain fashion-pro’s and -lovers arrived at the Dylan Hotel to watch the collections of Francisco van Benthum, Jeroen van Tuyl and Unconditional.
The collection of Van Benthum was inspired by Cuba and the tropics, which resulted in a modern/classic design in light fabrics and colors. The British label Unconditional presented mens- and womenswear with a street chic character. Jeroen van Tuyls clsed the evening with his tough yet classic menswear.
