The brand decided to get off the fashion week schedule this year with a show in June called «Collection 1», so this show was actually their second one off-calendar. Wi

On Monday afternoon Paris Fashion Week started with a bang. Three of the most awaited shows of this season were presenting. Dior went first, followed by Jacquemus and Gucci. Jacquemus followed his usual guidelines with a show called «La Riviera», a ethnically diverse cast and a front row full of French It-girls. The collection’s strongest pieces were for sure the XXL bags in earthy tones. Gucci then followed, starting its show with an horror movie projection. The show was hel

The Met Gala 2018 red carpet was all about commemoration of religion, rites and rituals. ‘Hevanly Bodies: Fashion and Catholic Imagination’ assembled the liturgical characters of the Bible and Christianity on the steps of The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Indubitably, the mummers of excitement among most guests were about the historical Vatican treasures which left Rome for the first time on the requests of fashion’s Pope Anna Wintour and Patriarch of Fashion Andrew Bolto
