Diane, A Shaded View on Fashion

STOCKHOLM FASHION WEEK / V AVE SHOE REPAIR - TEXT BY PHILIPPE POURHASHEMI PHOTOS BY SONNY VANDEVELDE

Dear Shaded Viewers,

Urban sophistication and dark elegance have no secrets for V Ave Shoe Repair. Draping was key in their last collection, as well as a precise and hard-edged silhouette, which felt strong and contemporary. Swedish fashion is more about graphic lines than surface detail, even though textures and sheerness seem important this season. 

Best,

Philippe

STOCKHOLM FASHION WEEK / ALTEWAI.SAOME - TEXT BY PHILIPPE POURHASHEMI PHOTOS BY SONNY VANDEVELDE

Dear Shaded Viewers,

Stockholm Fashion Week started yesterday with Altewai.Saome's inspiring and high-energy show. Natalia Altewai and Randa Saome launched their line in 2009 and I was impressed with their sense of cut, texture, volume and luxurious detailing. They combined a great techno fabric -resembling plastic bubble wrap- with more traditional woolens and exquisite embroidery. The clothes were minimalistic in spirit, but innovative in their execution and use of embellishment, as well as layering. It was a young, chic and self-assured proposal. 

Best,

Philippe

JOEY ME REPORTS FROM HONG KONG_I HEART LOS ANGELES

Dear Shaded Viewers,

I spent two weeks in Los Angeles for the Chinese New Year holiday. I used to live in Los Angeles for about five years, so it's always so nice to come back for a visit, feels like going home.

I've been following Diane's A Shaded View On Fashion Film Barcelona closely, and what Diane does just inspires me so much. I know my outfits have been very out there, but in fact I am actually a very shy person. Therefore, it takes me a lot of courage to make a video, and after been viewing what Diane does for this amazing project and my friend Andy's encouragement, I finally push myself to make a video for my blog. My video is nothing compare to the fashion films on http://www.asvoff.es/. The video is just about me showing you guys my favorite vintage clothing store in Los Angeles. It is a very amateur one as this is my first time to edit a video, so please bare with me...

Joey
