Fashion week update

The first show I attended yesterday was Kristar Design. The collection was filled with basic shorts, tops and blazers. The colours were very natural, with some hints of bright colours now and then (which reminded me to pack my turquoise blazer for London next week). A lot of the models were also carrying big leather bags, which looked very good. To sum up, we saw well-tailored clothes, a lot of which were also very wearable.

Straight after Kristar Design, White Baron started their show. Their collection, The Northern Skies, is inspired by Norwegian culture, with its bright colours and rough materials. Cossack hats and silk kimonos were repeated throughout the show, and the models’ style was dramatic, with big hair and smokey eyes.

Batlak & Selvig opened the doors for their show at Galery Riis 8pm last night. We were expecting to find a catwalk, but instead we were met by white mannequin dolls dressed in the designers’ clothes. The clothes were feminine and a lot of them inspired by the sixties. Despite all the lovely clothes, the highlight for me was definitely when Crown Princess Mette Marit entered the room, wearing these amazing shoes.

My plan for tomorrow is to search the internet until I find out where they’re from!
