Frontrow at Sage & Ivy – AIFW SS2012

Sage & Ivy Catwalk Fashion Show AIFWSS2012
After days of rain the sun came out today. What a relief for designer Alexia van Engelen and her team. She was the only designer this week showing her collection outside. And not just on a regular catwalk. No, they built a runway under water in the pond at the Westergasterrein in Amsterdam.
This created the illusion that the models were walking on water. The water, the sun, the catwalk and the models created the perfect picture together. A picture that fit the new Sage & Ivy collection perfectly, especially since it was inspired by water.
The clothes showed many different sides of water. The way in which water reflects things, the look of a sunset, the transparency of water and all kind of colors that appear as the sun shines on water.
The designs looked feminine and sweet, exactly the kind of thing you expect from Alexia if you know her. The delicate dresses, pants, suit jackets, sheer blouses, capes and accessories all were beautifully made and all had lot of details (braiding and draping) to them.
Especially the maxi dresses and skirts in the water gave the show an extra dramatic effect. Everything fell right in to place. It was a show to remember and, if you ask us, one of the highlights of the Amsterdam Fashion Week.
Which crew are you? Star Studded Studios at AIFW
Star Studded Studios is Joost van Bellen and Sander Stenger, and without these talented, inspiring and highly professional people fashionshows would be a rather dull event. A good musicmix brings everything together, it can make people cry, cheer and laugh and never ever forget the show they saw. This fashionweek Star Studded Studios was responsible for the soundtracks at the show of SIS and Lichting 2011.

At AIFW day 3: the sun is out, let’s play!
We thought it would rain forever, but look: the sun is out. And suddenly life & fashion looks much better.

Impressions of AIFW SS2012 Day 2
This was Day 2 of Amsterdam International Fashion Week edition SS2012. Highlights – despite the rain and wind and rain and wind – of yesterday were Pauline van Dongen and Lichting 2011 with winner Sanne Schepers from Artez.
Which crew are you? Hot Kitchen at AIFW
Where would we be at AIFW without the delicious food of Hot Kitchen, the cateringservice (and much more – from concepts to events) of cook Caspar Bürgi and Ward van der Graaf? Our start of the day would be dull without the the friendly talks with Elsbeth at the counter. It’s always a happy start of the day.
Meet – from left to right standing – Elsbeth Bürgi, Caspar Bürgi, Ward van der Graaf. Sitting in front: Driss Bgharnati and Mohammed Hayi.

Preparations are in full swing for the Sage & Ivy-show this evening. Since Sage & Ivy is an outdoor show, we keep our fingers crossed. Hopefully we’ll keep it dry today.
Sanne Schepers wins Lichting 2011
Sanne Schepers is the winner of Lichting 2011 and wins the G-star Raw Talent Award! On Thursday night Sanne was named the most promising young new Dutch talent out of fourteen fashion graduates. Sanne won a price of 10.000 euro and has the honor to be part of the G-star Raw catwalk presentation in Berlin.
An international jury existing of Shelly Fox (Parsons NYC), stylist Catherine Baba (Vogue, Chanel, Balmain), Romain Brau en Anna Kushnerova (founders of the Antwerp fashion store RA13) and Michael van der Ham chose Sanne as the winner of 2011. They praised her for her individual style and the new principle Sanne introduced in fashion.
Sanne used the idea of a twinset and came up with a very innovative design concept which makes it possible to wear one piece of clothing in four different ways. Her silhouettes might have been simple; this idea and the way in which she brought it to life are very promising.
