After the screening my dinner for 6 turned into a dinner for 12 and when we arrived everyone already at the table took one side of the banquette to make room for the additional 6, it was quite a riot as they all fit where normally only 4 would be seated. The YSL party came next but I skipped it, as usual.

More fashion later but I have to get dressed and run to Chanel and first I wanted to show Dino Dinco how the screening went last night. Anyway , you will be happier with Sonny's photo's instead of mine.

Later,

Shame on You

Dear Shaded Viewers,

This season we finally see the return of Black and Asian models on the runway, bravo, but what do you think of a new magazine that is about to launch with a title that sounds like an open sore who dictates that no black models are to be booked for their jazz story. And what is the history of jazz....shame on you. May the editor in chief burn in hell.

Later,

Diane

Day 4 Paris

Dear Shaded Viewers,

After a rather dismal first two shows of the day I was very happy to find myself seated at the Dries Van Noten show. Sonny's photos tomorrow.

Toga had a lovely presentation at Rendez-Vous, the only problem was the photographer that was shooting the show kept stepping in to the frame and arranging the clothes making the model feel awkward and uncomfortable. Aside from that the collection was very well done.

Every element of the Ricardo Tischi collection was perfection from their hair to their toes. Beautiful and you will appreciate it more tomorrow when I show you Sonny's photos but for now...here are a few of mine.

More pics tomorrow from Sonny and I wish that I could have played the soundtrack for you.

After Bernhards we ran off to Da Mimmo's to meet Franca Soncini for dinner, here she is with Tilda her dog and Miguel Villalobos. Bernhard's show started 90 minutes late so Franca was waiting for us for more than one hour and still smiling.

Paris Day 3

Dear Shaded Viewers,

Before going to Lutz today I stopped by the Flanders Fashion Institute to have a look at the 6 designers.

You saw Mikio's runway show last week in Milan. Heaven was commissioned by Dries Van Noten to do the jewelry for Dries' show. This however is his personal work.

Comme des Garcons

Amy Winehouse - Rehab was played on the soundtrack that opened the show of Comme des Garcons and it appeared that Amy was also this season's muse.

Comme des Garcons and Jun Takahashi the day after his strong and poetic show.

After the show I ran into Undercover's Jun Takahashi wearing that amazing blue jacket. It's funny because the way I know my friend Miguel Villalobos is indirectly through Undercover. One day Miguel was researching Jun Takahashi and was directed to my blog, he became a Shaded Viewer and a few months later after Raf Simons show he came up to me and introduced himself. He wanted to thank Jun for our friendship and also to tell him how much he loved his work and his show but... the words were never said.

After Comme des Garcons we were going to go for a tea but then decided to have an early dinner at Cinq Mars and then check e mails.
