In addition to all of that, that is where I fell in love with a koala and the start of my Save the Koala obsession.

Today I was happy to hear that Evan McKie and his husband are adopting a koala, maybe you should too? http://www.savethekoala.com. CLick adopt a koala.

THe first suit created by hand in Italy by Haans Nicholas Mott

Haans Nicholas Mott in the VIP room at CaixaForum Barcelona

Dear Shaded VIewers,

Haans Nicholas Mott stopped by CaixaForum for a fitting of my soon to be custom made veil. I convinced him to also model his first suit made entirely by hand. Too bad you can not feel the Loro Piana cashmere via cyber space, like butter, literally melts in your hands. The suit is cut with the ease of someone that wants to put it on and never take it off.

Later,

Diane

080 BARCELONA MANUEL BOLAÑO - TEXT BY PHILIPPE POURHASHEMI PHOTOS BY SONNY VANDEVELDE

BCN_1183ManuelBolanoSonnyphotos

Dear Shaded Viewers,

Manuel Bolaño is currently one of Spain's most exciting designers. His collection -which was inspired by 1930s Germany, institutional hospitals and decadence- had a strong point of view, as well as impeccable cuts and innovative prints. With their bruised faces and dark lips, his models looked like they'd been having too much of a good time.

BCN_1200ManuelBolanoSonnyphotos

One of my favorite pieces was a tailored biker jacket made in a beautiful fabric with wavy stripes. It was the ultimate in deluxe utilitarianism.

080 BARCELONA KRIZIA ROBUSTELLA - TEXT BY PHILIPPE POURHASHEMI PHOTOS BY SONNY VANDEVELDE

BCN_0427KriziaSonnyphotos

Dear Shaded Viewers,

Sportswear was major news during Barcelona's 080. With colorful prints, roomy shapes and fun knitwear, Krizia Robustella's collection had a positive and dynamic spirit. She used geometric patterns and fluorescent tones to great effect. The overall mood was deliciously 80s: think Body Map meets Popy Moreni.

Dear Shaded Viewers,

Boris Schipper and Tomas Pedrosa Arques presented a sexy and vampish collection during 080, Barcelona's Fashion Week. The designers know how to emphasize curves and accentuate the best parts of the female form. I loved their black looks, which were dangerous and sophisticated at the same time.

Barcelona DAY 5 Part I: ASVOFF Barcelona Last day by Akiko Hamaoka

Dear Shaded Viewers,

I cannot believe that it was the last day of ASVOFF Barcelona yesterday. The time flies here... I don't want to leave this beautiful city - there is such a positive energy everywhere you go.

As I have to leave for the airport in 30 mins, I am not sure how far I can report you - but let's start the last day chronologically.

As I really wanted to go to La Manual Alpargatera to get the true espadrille - I woke up early and went the gothic area. I heard "Akiko!" on the street and it was Sonny going to the show venue of Barcelona fashion week. I was really happy to see him again.

They did not have the lavender one with platform but I found quite nice blue satin on promotion for 30 euros, so i got that pair.

Showroom Belgium / London Fashion Week

Dear Shaded Viewers,

Showroom Belgium make its first appearance at London Fashion Week.
From 17 to 21 February 2012, four Belgium based designers will present their collections at Somerset House.

 

As an initiative of Flanders Fashion Institute  the video installation will accompany this event. 
The video was shot entirely at the Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Antwerp, which is currently closed for renovation until 2017. The video makes use of this unique location. 
Like the museum's art pieces, the model, featuring pieces from the designers' collection, is carefully wrapped, stored and transported to other destinations ...

Hugs

ASVOFF BARCELONA 2012: TODAY, RESTAURANT CAN MAJÓ SERVED A SHADED MENU - BY SR.MARCELO HORACIO MAQUIEIRA.

 

0-MHM-menu Can Majo copy

 

Dear Shaded Viewers and Diane,

Barceloneta’s Can Majó strictly makes the difference between facing the sea and deliciously tasting it. His owner Enrique (charming eyes and envyingly naturally tanned) tells me a sailor story at the entrance next to the restaurant’s excellent wine warehouse. After taking over an old fish market and garage next door, this tasty hippocampus (seahorse) moved from being a pequeño (small) five-table restaurant during the late 60’s, into the seafood location in town. Not to forget their butch rice dishes, and I am not talking “paellas”. Once seated, the peaceful aquarium sensation becomes inevitable, dishes keep coming and I feel like going down to the sea. It must be its harmonious family atmosphere floating on the space, and carefully delivered by the kind staff. Suitable privacy for a business lunch, a family reunion, or simply enjoying its Mediterranean terrace like one should during the summer months.
