When beautiful things are happening they go by so fast. That's for sure. Tried and tested. 2 weeks away, from Berlin to Paris gone like a couple of days. Beautiful and fulfilling is what sums both of them. Came back with a hanful of projects and plans for the year ahead. Shall tell you all about them as they approach.
Until then a lot of surprises are waiting for you at the showroom starting next week...And a new fashion show on the way! Can't wait!

Corina Vladescu SS2010 collection @ Rendez Vous Paris- Jeu de Paume Oct.2009

Dear friends and readers, one of the great news I was talking about in the PARIS PARIS PARIS post is about to be revealed as it is done. While at Who's Next salon my collection has been spotted by the owners of famous concept store Surface 2 Air Paris who select the collections for the prestigios showcase Rendez- Vous Paris Femmes, which takes place during Paris Fashion week in Jardin de Tuileries and is famous for its harsh selection and valuable designers taking part at it.
" Rendez- Vous, the premiere international contemporary fashion tradeshow conceived and produced by noted design collective Surface To Air Paris, was established as the leading showcase for designers and brands who are at the forefront of contemporary fashion. "
Fashion designers at Rendez Vous since 2004 include: Richard Nicoll,Alexandre Herchovith, Emma Cook, Peter Pilotto, Osman Yousefzada, Cathy Pill, Blaak, Marjan Pejoski, Sandrina Fasoli,Alice McCall, Tatty devine, Karen Walker, Antipodium, etc.
Returning from Paris in September, I received a mail quoting " You were one of the collections that we spotted that would be an excellent addition to our event Rendez Vous in October " and got the personal code which allowed me to register for the show.
So, we were there and it was a real success and I am so thriled that I've got such good reviews on my SS 2010 collection. While there I also took some A/W 2009/10 catalogues and I am happy that some buyers appreciated it so much that they've ordered from it as well though they had already made their winter budget. The most important moment for me was when one of Vogue's UK editors came made some photos and said she loved the collection and is impressed by both SS 2010 and previous AW 2009/10. Then there was l' Officiel Russia and another big magazine but I'm not yet revealing it.
I've made hundreds of photos and i shall be back with more in the following posts

PARIS PARIS PARIS

Sorry about not posting anything for such a long time, we've been very busy after Who's Next...and shame on me, I didn't manage to post the AW 2009/2010 collection. But in a couple of days I shall do so!
For now, a few words and photos from Paris
We've been overwhelmed by the feedback we received from the press, buyers, visitors and the way my collection was welcomed.
I have some wonderful news, but I'm not going to share them with you untill things really happens.
Some of the photos below are blured because being the SS 2010 collection I have to protect the design, fabric and print.

Love,
C.

Saturday at Cafepedia and party at Rokolectiv

Saturday was fair day again at Cafepedia caffe. The room was rather beautiful, light flooding from the huge windows. I made a rather chessy setting on purpose with lots of memorabilia from the 80's, each piece being something that appeared during that era, as the clothes I brought were all 80's inspired.
Everybody who came by wanted to buy either the pony ( Princess Twinkle by her name ) or the cutout punk gloves so I had to keep an extra eye on my valuable possessions not to ruin the kitchy setting.


Clothes wise I chose to bring two rails but with 10 pieces each, as I like stuff when it is more airy, the colors on one rail were ranging from Monetesque blues , to sheer skin delicious nudes, crisp whites, watercolored prints and moonwashed jeans. The other rail brought color to the ensemble with raspberry pink, coral and fuchsia mingled with black and white textures.
Lots of people, models and actors, fellow designers and a pleasant all in all athmosphere though I had some horrible unconfortable shoes that tortured me throughout the 8 hour fair.







After all the buzz I met up with some friends and we went ahead to party at Rokolectiv a electro visual festival held in Bucharest each year. The location is a really cool restored patrimony building in Bucharest known as The Ark the old Bucharest Commodities Exchange and home to a multitude of creative milieus. We had a blast and end up partying really hard until 6 a.m banging our heads in an alternative rock club afterwards.
