DnN St. Petersburg Fashion Week. Day III.

Third day of DnN St. Petersburg Fashion Week (Check out the Firs Day here and Second day here ). For me it was the most interesting one, because I got a chance to go backstage (I'll post one more special post about it soon) and watch the crazy process of doing make-up, hairstyle and talk to some friends who worked there.

The show has started with two collections of students of International School of Design. The clothes were laconic and quite simple, I loved the neutral color palette and draped garments.

Minju Kim for H&M

Finally, it's almost here! Winner of the H&M Design Award 2013, Minju Kim has developed pieces for being sold in selected H&M stores around the world from October 17th. I only hope Minju Kim's collection will be in Russian H&M stores too.

Minju Kim has graduated from Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. She has showed a great collection with transformed drawn characters on her garments. Ahain, I can feel a bit of Korean themes in her clothing. I love the structure and layers she put there. The texture of textile is strong and soft at the same time, the color palette is fresh, but not too colorful.

Minju Kim' s collection consists of nine women’s pieces and two accessories. I'm absolutely in love with sweatshirt and thinking about buying t-shirt too. If I had an endless budget, I would probably just buy all of these pieces. Although they're not completely in my style, I feel like we belong together...

Hope you'll enjoy the lookbook of Minju Kim for H&M and few more photos from “Dear My Friend” collection.

DnN St. Petersburg Fashion Week. Day II.

Second day of DnN St. Petersburg Fashion Week has started with futuristic show of Yulia Kosyak. The models looked unreal, even their movements were very conceptual. The collection has started with the pure white creatures from another world, then it turned to darker tones and ended up with purple garments, which looked like they were even possible to wear in everyday life.

DnN St. Petersburg Fashion Week. Day I.

After September full of fashion events in Paris, Milan, London and New York, finally it's turn to open the fashion season in Russia. The first one is DnN Fashion Week, one of the main seasonal fashion events of North Capital (that's how we call St. Petersburg here).

I was invited there as a photographer for the magazine I work with. And I can totally call it "a trip for business and pleasure"! I really enjoyed all of the shows, it's always interesting to see the runway and all of the small details you've probably couldn't have noticed on TV.

My article and the main photos (they are the best ones and totally worth seeing) will be published in the magazine next month, but for now I'm going to show you some sneak peaks form my first day on DnN St. Petersburg Fashion Week. Hope you'll enjoy it friends!

Jacob Scott. Model. New Face. Inspiration.

I instantly fell in love with this new face! A 18 years old Jacob Scott is native of Middlesbrough, England of German and Irish descent. He has recently dyed his hair to blond and looks so fresh and totally different from his look with the dark hair.

Jacob Scott was scouted in a mall in Houston, Texas and now he's signed with New York Model Management. With his incredible bone structure and freckles he already did a Calvin Klein exclusive in Milan and I'm sure he has a bright future in fashion industry.
