XAVI REYES PRESENTED BY MERCEDES BENZ AND ELLE BERLIN FASHION WEEK

Xavi Reye Elle Berlin fashion Week lisforlois
Hey Guys,

What's up? I'm back with some more pictures right off the runway. The ELLE magazine x Mercedes Benz show is one of the more special shows on the schedule each season, always highlighting the works of a young talent. This year's talent: Xavi Reyes.
Xavi Reyes is a designer from Spain who founded his label with the same name only in 2013. His designs are largely gender-free (note the blush and make up on both male and female models during this show) playing with new silhouettes inspired by "youth, future and melancholy".

Fun fact: the guy in the first picture is a friend of mine, Simon Dube Paul, and I accompanied him and Phillip to the casting just a few days prior to the show. Trust me castings are not as easy and fun as they may seem on Germany's next Topmodel (You might have followed my day on Snapchat! LoisOpoku). We left the casting go watch Dube's little brother's basketball game and came back as the designer + team were packing up. The boys hushed in for a quick minute. Good thing Dube tried his luck.
He booked the show!
Enjoy the pictures of the runway. As usual shot by my boy Phillip and edited by me.

MBFW BERLIN: IOANA CIOLACU - BACKSTAGE EXPERIENCE AND INTERVIEW

ioana ciolacu berlin fashion week januar 2015 lisforlois
I have been a fan of Ioana Ciolacu since I first saw her. It was at the press conference with Stella McCartney. I was rooting for her to win the Award, not only because I her showcasing piece and her collection "Paradox" completely blew me away. But there was something about her that I immediately liked. I remember her, shy, but so genuine. She won the Designer for Tomorrow Award of 2013 and last summer she presented her debut collection as the official winner of the DFT Award, which again was one of my favorite collections by far presented at Berlin Fashion Week.

This season she returned to Berlin on her own with a new collection. Her being one of my favs since she emerged, for two seasons straight - imagine my joy, when I received a personal message from her via Facebook if I was interested to attend her show. She herself invited me to her show! Soon after I received the official invitation, backstage passes and one of her runway dresses to attend her show in.
(A little bit of gossip on the side: I even organized some friends to walk her show. Salimata, you looked amazing!). Enjoy a post full of runway and backstage impressions.

MBFW BERLIN SS'13: DAY 1



Day one was the busiest of all for me and probably the most exciting. What started out as a half day packed schedule for me turned into a fulltime fashion show filled day in matter of seconds starting 10 o'clock sharp to 8pm. Day one held some of the most interesting names, shows that filled me with expectations and I was not let down. On the contrary I was amazed.
As usual I was running late and luckily bumped into Jana and Sabrina. I had no idea where to go and seeing them take the lead, I followed. And we got lost. xD But cheers to the "let's go missing and trolling around town in search for the freaking fashion week tent" girls!

MBFW DAY 4


Better late than never. Receiving my invitation to the Premium really put me in a Fashion Week mood. Which is why I decided to look at all the pictures that captured my memories from my very first fashion week. Pictures on my blog, pictures on my computer and on my friend's blogs. Going through my archive I realized I never showed you day 4!

Day 1 at the Fashion Week was the most exciting for me as it was my first time at fashion week. The first time I was at a runway show and the first time I got to experience fashion week frenzy and what it means to pose for a streetstyle (or any other) photographer every 2 seconds in a break between the presentations. :P
I enjoyed the day so much! And I was so happy to be there.

Tag 1 bei der Fashion Week muss für mich wohl der spannendste gewesen sein, da es ja mein erstes Mal bei der Fashion Week war. Das erste Mal, dass ich bei einer Runway Show war und das erste mal, dass ich den Fashion Week Frenzy erleben durfte und was es heißt alle 2 Sekunden für einen Streetstyle (oder jeder andere) Fotografer posen zu müssen. :P
Ich habe den Tag sehr genossen! Und ich war so glücklich vor Ort zu sein.
