Moda za poneti, jedan simpatican dogadjaj na koji mozemo naici vise puta godisnje (po mojim najnovijim saznanjima, bila sam dezinformisana x) ). Nekada se odrzavao u SKC-u, danas se odrzava u Kulturnom centru Grad u ulici Brace Krsmanovica 4 (preko puta popularne "Chorbe" za sve one koji su imali (ne)srecu da sede tamo nekad u zivotu) dokle mozete stici tramvajem 2, koji sam inace cekala pola sata, mislim da mi je trebalo oko sat vremena da stignem btw, al' nema veze sta sad, niko me nije terao. Manifestacija je pocela u 17h i trajala do 22h, sto se isto dogadja i danas.

Bio je to pravi skup raznoraznih mastovitih i radoznalih ljudi sa raznoraznih strana :) Atmosfera je bila sjajna. Na donjem spratu je bila izlozena garderoba, po stalak za svakog dizajnera, uzivala sam prebiruci po njima. Nekoliko stvari bih cak i nosila, zaista. Ono sto mi je malo manje leglo su cene, nista tamo nije jefitno, sto je meni kao ekonomisti pre svega vise nego razumljivo jer znam da njima kao kreatorima i pojedincima mnogo skuplje izadje kupovina materijala na malo, pa se stoga moze desiti da vam se nesto ucini manje vredno od cene koja se nalazi na etiketi. Medjutim, ne zaboravite da placate i za apsolutnu unikatnost tog komada i da kupovinom pomazete tog istog kreatora. Stoga, negativni i glasni komentari od strane snobovskih ljudi koji su se ne znam kako tamo nasli, definitivno nisu dobrodosli. Ono nije trzni centar, ono je prodajna izlozba, a oni lepo neka idu na buvljak jer im je kulturoloska svest na nivou iskljucivo takvog mesta.

Na spratu iznad su izlagali nakit od svega i svacega, keramika, koza, delovi tastature (da, da, genijealno zar ne xD ), perlice, perje, staklo, metal, sta sve ne :D Dopali su mi se rajfici ali im je cena bila bas bas jaka. Htela sam dragom da kupim privezak sa "caps lock" tasterom :D Ali on nije bio toliko odusevljen kao ja x) Verovatno bih orobila devojku koja je pravila ogrlice od koze pre samo par godina, ali sad vise nisam u tom fazonu, smrc... Keramicke sovice i masnice su me takodje odusevile, mnogo slatki komadici... Bilo je i na prvom spratu nekih slatkih mindjuca al nisam uspela ni da im pridjem od silne guzve. Bilo je tu jos puno toga. Prostor je bio relativno mali, ja sam nekako ocekivala nesto vece, jer mi je obilazak trajao relativno kratko. Ali je vredno toga, nemamo cesto takve manifestacije nazalost.. Evo par slika sa lica mesta:


Take away fashion is a name of an event taking place in Belgrade once (or twice) a year. It's designed to promote unknown clothing and jewelry designers. Entrance is always free. I saw lots of interesting, imaginative and curious people there. Clothing designers were on the lower and jewelry designers on upper floor. I really enjoyed going through all those lovely and unique pieces. The prices were a bit higher that I would like them to be, but I know that it's very expensive for them to make each and every piece, so it's ok. Jewels were maid out of glass, metal, leather, ceramic, feathers, pearls.. There were some adorable unique bags - no shoes tho :( The only thing I didn't like is that space was pretty small, I expected something bigger. But never mind, it's not like we have a lot of these events anyway :) Here's a few pictures:

Big YES for Katty Perry wearing Marchesa - it fits her :) Big NO for Snookie from Jersey Shore, for her make up and whatever she's wearign here...

Oh, da, iako se kod nas jos osecaju poslednji dani leta, dizajneri su vec uveliko osmislili sta da nam predloze da obucemo i obujemo sledeceg proleca kada sunce ponovo grane :D Zaista, da nisu mozda malo poranili? Ma neee... Fashion week NY je poceo pre samo par dana i vec se mnogo toga moze zakljuciti o buducim trendovima i potencijalnim "it" komadima. Iskreno, ne pratim sve dizajnere niti me svi zanimaju. Takodje nikad ne tvrdim da je neka kolekcija super samo zato sto ju je izbacio "taj-i-taj" stoga, ako vam treba strucni report sa fashion weeka, ovo ipak nije to - ovo je malo vise subjektivno ali zato nije potplaceno ;)
************************************************************************************ Oh yes, even if we still feel the warmth of the las summer days, designers have already decided to let us know what have they made for us and what do they suggest we should wear next srping/summer when the sun shines again :D Isn't it a bit too early I wonder? Nooo xD Fashion week NY started a few days ago and yet you can already say a lot about upcoming trends and potential "it" pieces. Honestly, I don't track works of all designers, neither I like all of them. I also never claim that a collection is great just because it's made by someone who is alerady a famous designer. In case you need a really exeprt report from fashion week, you should probably search elsewhere - what I write is a bit more subjective and without anybody paying me any money to say something good or bad ;) So here we go :)



Alexander Wang, spring/summer 2011


Alexandar Wang je relativno nov na svetskoj dizajnerskoj sceni, mlad i inovativan. Zaista su mi se dopale neke od njegovih ranijih kolekcija koje su obilovale kozom, nitnama, flashy detaljima, i u kojima je uopsteno dominirala crna boja. Bas zato je ova nova kolekcija bila potpuni shok za mene - ali mi je takodje otkrila i jedan od ocigledno vodecih trendova za sledece prolece/leto a to je - BELO, providno i lagano. Skoro cela kolekcija je u beloj boji, sa malo varijacija, cini mi se cisto da ne bude previse monotono. Kreacije su prosecne. Obuca mi se uopste ne dopada - shvatam, onaj "radnicka cipela" motiv je u pitanju - meni je grozan, zaista. Ne svidja mi se ni "make up" ako se ovo time moze nazvati - kao da modeli ne izgledaju dovoljno namuceno same po sebi xD Ali dobro, vidjali smo i gore od ovoga.

Alexander Wang is relatively new designer on the world level, young and inovative - I really liked his old collections with lots of leather and black details. That's why this new collection was a shock for me - but has also revealed one of the obviously leading trends for next spring/summer - that is WHITE, transparent and light. Almoust whole collection is made out of white materials, with maybe some pumpkin and celadon not to make it all too boring. The creations are average. I really don't like the shoes, I mean, I get it completely, it's all about that "working shoes" motive, but I don't like it at all. I personaly didn't like what he did to the models either- but hey, I saw worse than that.







Ruffian, spring/summer 2011

Ovo je jedna jako slatka kolekcija od strane Brian Wolk-a i Claude Morais. Musa im je bila Susan Travers, jedina zena koja je zvanicno sluzila u Frecng Foreign Legion, tako da je cela kolekcija pod velikim "vojnim" uticajem, kreacije podsecaju na neku vrstu uniforme.. Fenomenalno mi je kako su tako dobro od necega tipicno muskog napravili ovako zenstvene komade. Mnogo mi se dopadaju. Iskreno, mozda bih ih i sama nosila - a to bas retko kazem za nesto sto dolazi direktno sa piste :)

Now this is one very cute collection made by Brian Wolk and Claude Morais. Their muse for this season was Susan Travers, the only woman to officially serve with the French Foreign Legion, so the whole collection had a strong military influence, creations remind us on some sort of uniforms .. It's lovely how they put together something so "menly" and made it so feminine. I just love these creations! I would wear them myself, which I very rarely say for something coming sratight from the runway.








Jen Kao spring/summer 2011


Ovo je second best kolekcija koju sam do sada videla na NY fashion week-u. Ima nekoliko inovativnih detalja, zanimljivo uklopljene boje i preslatku obucu.. Jen Kao je kao inspiraciju navela "romansu" ili "romantiku", da ne pogresim u prevodu. I zaista nam je iznela romansu na pistu na sjajan nacin. Pocnimo od toga da je pista licila na pesak sa raznim sharama. Haljine i vezeni koncani odevni predmeti izgledaju sjajno, nesto sto se moze nositi na obican dan, bez da odskacete previse od okoline a da ipak zadrzite posebnost. Mnogo mi se svidjaju one ravne sandale sto idu do kolena! Ne bi mi smetalo da nabavim jedan takav komad ( a inace ne volim ravne sandale tipa gladijatorke, ne svidja mi se kako mi stoje). Takodje sam primetila jos jednu sitnicu u ovoj reviji koja tezi da se uspostavi kao trend, s obzirom da sam je videla na jos par mesta a to je - ogoljeni stomacic ;)

Now here's the collection I find the second most interesting of those on NY fashion week so far. It has more than few inovative details, interesting colour matching, some lovely footwear... Jen Kao focused herself this season on ROMANCE. And she gave us romance on the runway on completely new way. We can start from the bare runway that looked like it was made out of sand with artistic cravings in it. The dresses with the knitwork looked great, something you could wear on a normal day without bouncing of your environment and still feel special. I just love those up-to-knee sandals, I would like to own one pair myself. There's also another thing I noticed in this collection and in some other too - it seems to me that naked belly might become a trend too ;)







Jason Wu spring/summer 2011


Moze se reci da mi je ovo omiljena kolekcija koju sam videla do sad ove godine na NY fashion weeku. Jason Wu je mlad dizajner koji je do sada bio fokusiran samo na odecu, ali je sa ovom klolekcijom predstavio i aksesoare i obucu po prvi put kao deo svoje postavke. Njegova nova kolekcija je puna detalja i oblika, kao sto su cvece na reveru i kragni, tanki kaisevi na visokom struku, "tupil (lala)" suknje, providne majice itd. Moram priznati da licno ne bih nosila njegove komade, ali ova kolekcija je pravo osvezenje u smislu boja i svezine za razliku od vecine drugih koje smo videli.

This might just be my favorite collection presented on NY fashion week so far. Jason Wu is a young designer, who was focused only on clothes so far, but with this show he also presented his first accessories and footwear. His new collection was so full of pretty details and shapes, like flowers on the side of blouses, belts high on waist, tulip skirts, transparent blouses and so on. I must addmit that I probably wouldn't wear any of his pieces myself, but his collection looks so lovely and colourful between all the others we've seen.

Ostale kolekcije me nisu previse impresionirale. Pretpostavljam da cu napisati jos jedan post ako mi se dopadne jos neka kolekcija do kraja nedelje. Slike preuzete sa vouge.com

The rest of the collections didn't impress me. In case I like some more by the end of the fashion week, I will surely post one more time ;) Pics taken from vouge.com

Pisala sam vec o njima kada je izasao preview za jesenju kolekciju. Sada mozete pogledati celu kolekciju na ALDO-vom sajtu. Moram da im uputim sve pohvale za nakit, sto se toga tice, uvek su imali sjajne sitnice. I ove sezone ce izgleda biti tako. A uz to, sve se to lepo moze kupiti i na snizenju za pristojnije pare ;) Evo nekoliko komada koji su mi se dopali. Vise pogledajte na sajtu :)

***********************************************************************************

I wrote earlier about Aldo accessories when preview for autumn collection cama out. Now you can take a lot at whole collection on Aldo site. I must give my best recommendation for their jewelry, they always had lovely pieces. This season won't be an exeption when it comes to that. And the best part is, you can buy almoust all of it on sale for more diecent price. ;) Here's few pieces that I liked the most.

Jesen stize jos malo, skolarci se pakuju u skole a mi studenti na fakultete. Stize nam jos verovitog i kisovitog vremena. Definitivno je vreme da se traze novi mantil, kaput ili jakna :D Kao sto rekoh u nekom od prethodnih postova, ove sezone bih bas zelela da kupim sebi koznu jaknu ili neki lep dugacak kaput/mantil sa puno fancy dugmica. The search is on :)

Dizajneri su ove sezone bas resili da insistiraju na trench-coat-u, mantilima, krznu, redovima dugmica. Cak su uveli i neku vrstu reinkarnacije plashteva na piste. Oker i crna su dominantne za predstojeci period - kao i skoro za svaku jesen/zimu. Vise nego ikada, akcenat je na klasici, odsustvu previse detalja, jednostavnim krojevima, eleganciji... Dotle da cak postaje i dosadno. Brendovi kao Chanel i Valentino su oduvek predstavljali klasiku - klasika je uvek bila u modi - ne znam odakle ovolika potreba da se to sada naglasi. Pistama su defilovale nosivi i "vecni" komadi, praceni izjavama od strane dizajnera kao sto su "prezasiceni smo novitetima", "umerenost i kontrolisana strana licnosti su oslikani ovom kolekcijom", "radi se o odrastanju i zrelosti"... Iskrena da budem, da, ipak znam odakle potreba da se klasika vrati u modu - od ekonomske krize koja je debelo uzdrmala modnu industriju - mogu oni da se prave da se nikad nista nije dogodilo i da se sve i dalje prodaje kao ranije, ali ipak nije tako.

Ono sto doduse moram da pohvalim, jer sam apsolutno odusevljena - OBLINE su se vratile u modu. Pistama su hodale devojke sa grudima i zadnjicom. A ne ispijeni stapici koji izgledaju kao da ce pasti ako malo dune vetar. Napokon se i to dogodilo. Nije ni to doslo tek tako, da su svi dizajneri najednom promenili misljenje o tome kako savrsena zena treba da izgleda - vec su verovatno shvatili da vecina njihovih musterija ne izgleda kao doticne sa piste, niti zeli tako da izgleda. Bez obzira na razlog, dajem plus ovom potezu. Plus za obline i zene normalnog izgleda i tezine.

U nase radnje su vec stigle nove kolekcije . Doduse, u nasim radnjama se trenutno dogadja i jos nesto sto cisto sumnjam da se dogadja u inostranstvu. U Delta City-u su trenutno u toku poslednji trzaji letnjih rasprodaja. Mogu se naci neke ne-tako-posebne stvari po nekim pristojnim cenama, naravno izmedju vec ostecenih komada od silnog akanja (koji nisu civilizovano odvojeni, obelezeni i ponudjeni po nizoj ceni kako se to radi u drugim zemljama). Mozda se moze nabasati i na nesto posebno ako prokopate. Medjutim, vrlo interesantna pojava je, sto su u te sale odseke ubacili i stvari sa rasprodaje od PROSLE jesen/zima sezone. Zaostale jakne i dzemperi u Bershki, Stradivariusu, shalovi, rukavice i slicno u Accessorize-u... Nisam mogla svojim ocima da verujem. Vidite, u nekim malo uredjenijim zemljama sa visim standardom, kolekcija u radnji se "isplati" proizvodjacu u sezoni, i uz to kad ostvari planirani profit, ostatak stvari se snizava sve do fabricke cene, na kojoj ostaje dok se ne proda. Nikad nisam cula da se ista stvar opet iznosi sledece sezone po rasprodajnoj ceni. Ali ovde kod nas toga ocigledno ima... Znam, jasno mi je da, bez obzira na pune trzne centre, malo se kupuje, i da ovde kolekcije ne mogu da se isplate preko sezone, vec se isplacuju i tokom rasprodaja - zato nase rasprodaje nisu kao inostrane, i zato kod nas ne postoji nesto sto bi mi preveli kao "chistka" - prodaja po fabrickim cenama ili sa enormnim popustima do poslednjeg komada. Ne, kod nas se stvari ocigledno rade drugacije.

Ne mislim da je to ok. Ali, eto, sta je tu je. Procunjajte malo po Delti. Jeste da su od proslogodisnje sezone, ali mogu se naci i neki sasvim nosivi i neosteceni jesenji/zimski komadi u tim radnjama po snizenoj ceni - a zimske rasprodaje su jos vrlo daleko...

************************************************************************************

I do not know who to thank for the drop of temperature in Belgrade. I love summer but the summer means temperature up to 30 degrees Celsius. Anything above that, I call summer like hell. This year we had one such, summer hot like hell.

Autumn is coming soon, scholars are packed into schools and we students are going back to our universities. More rain and wind is aproaching. It is definitely time to seek a new coat or jacket :D As I said in one of the previous posts, this season I just want to buy myself a leather jacket or a nice long coat with lots of fancy buttons. The search is on:)

Designers this season are just resolved to insist on the trench-coat, overcoats, fur, rows of buttons. They even introduced a kind of reincarnation of ponco on the runway. Cream and black are dominant for the upcoming period - as nearly every fall / winter. More than ever, the emphasis is on the classics, the absence of too many details, simple cuts, elegance ... So much that it even becomes boring. Brands like Chanel and Valentino have always represented the classics - classic has always been a trend - I do not know why do they insist so much on it now. On the runways we saw wearable and "eternal" pieces, followed by statements by the designer as well as "we had too much innovations" or " it's about growing up and maturity "... To be honest, yes, I know where did this need to go back to classic came from - from the economic crisis that has shaken the fashion industry - can they pretend like nothing ever happened and like everything is still selling as before, but it's really not like that.

What do I have to commend tho, because I am absolutely delighted by it - CURVES are back on the runways. Modelsl with breasts and other atributes walked down the runway like the era of thin-and-flat never happened. I don't think it just happened like that, that all designers suddenly changed their mind about how perfect woman should look like - instead, they probably realized that the most of their customers do not look like those thiny girls the runway, and doesn't want to look like that either. No matter the reason, I give a huge plus to thi. Plus for the curves and women of normal looks and weight.
