Which crew are you? M-PR at AIFW

M-PR is the official public relations-team of the Amsterdam International Fashion Week and therefore not to miss. Without this fashion & lifestyle press-office – located in Amsterdam –  the pressroom would be a mess and things wouldn’t work that smooth. They are also the constant factor behind one of the AIFW-partners Bart Maussen.

In front from left to right: Bianca Aslani, Jantien de Bruin, Isabel Fernandez, Bart Maussen, Aafke Geers and Ashna. In the back: Merel Hofstad and Jan Willem te Gussinklo Ohman.

Which crew are you? Team Peter Stigter at AIFW

This edition of AIFW we would like to introduce the different crews behind the scenes. Without them this fashionweek would not work that smooth. No music, no food, no live stream video, no press-releases. Let’s start with our own crew: Team Peter Stigter.

Menswear Trend Report SS2011: Striking Stripes

June 27, 2011 by  
Filed under Fashion, Fashion Professionals, Menswear

Stripes are always popular in menswear and especially this season they were hard to miss. Many fashion houses sported stripes on the runway and not all in a navy (Iceberg, Junya Watanabe) kind of way.

Dolce & Gabbana, Prada, Gianfranco Ferre and Galliano showed very diverse, multicolored stripy items. Whether faded, bright, horizontal or vertical; with some stripes in your outfit, you’ll sure make a striking appearance.

Check out our gallery for some inspiration.

Fashion is fun!

A model’s life is fun, and so is fashion. Just watch the video of Justin Wu. It makes you laugh!

Miu Miu Catwalk Fashion Show Paris FW2011

The Miu Miu show was about Modern Glamour according to Miucca Prada. The glamour of  discreet dresses, with wide shoulders, sometimes bulked up with fur and decorated with glittering flora and fauna. The sparkle was matched by glittering shoes.

John Galliano Fired!

Christian Dior has fired John Galliano as it’s creative director.

“I unequivocally condemn the statements made by John Galliano, which are in total contradiction to the longstanding core values of Christian Dior,” Sidney Toledano, Dior’s president and chief executive officer, said in a statement today.

Dior stated that the “odious behaviour” exhibited by Galliano in the video released yesterday was the last straw resulting in his dismissal.
