Hi everyone!
Another Dreft Fashion Week started yesterday, and I'm quite satisfied with what we saw the first night. What I really like about this event, is that they bring us foreign designers, and also the atmosphere is so relaxed.
The Danish designer Barbara presented a very dark collection, full of androgynous and asymmetrical lines. This was one of my favorite collections last night, together with The Rodnik Band from London, and Leandro Cano from Madrid. The guys from The Rodnik Band always put a smile on our faces when they come here, because they're just so much fun and it looks like they really enjoy what they're doing. Their collection was full of different prints, like bananas and animals. Of course, the symbols of London were the main focus. Love it! A designer from Madrid, Leandro Cano, presented a collection which is focused on leather and knitwear. He often accentuates the hips, or the shoulders, which reminded me of McQueen.
And now the Croatian designers... Kristina Burja (Krie Design) presented a collection which I didn't like at all... The only thing I liked were the bags. Although I like fringes, they somehow didn't work very well in her collection. She also used feathers and studs, so I guess it was all a bit too much. The short dresses looked kind of cheap. Iggy Popvic's collection was casual, but since he uses materials like lace and silk, it looked a lot more expensive then just your everyday clothes. I liked the cropped brocade jackets. Aba Tomicic Drvar showed us a very sophisticated collection, full of transparent materials. The main colors were black, white and grey.
All in all, the first day was really great, I hope today will be equally successful.

Pozdrav svima!
Još jedan Dreft Fashion Week Zagreb je jučer počeo, i poprilično sam zadovoljna sa onime što smo vidjeli prvu večer. Ono šta stvarno volim kod ovoga eventa, je što nam dovode strane dizajnere, a i atmosfera je totalno opuštena.
Danska Dizajnerica Barbara je predstavila jako tamnu kolekciju, punu androgenih i asimetričnih linija. Ovo mi je bila jedna od najdražih kolekcija večeri, zajedno sa The Rodnik Bandom iz Londona, i Leandrom Canom iz Madrida. Dečki iz The Rodnik Banda nas uvijek razvesele, jer su jednostavno tako zabavni i izgleda da stvarno vole to što rade. Njihova kolekcija puna je različitih printeva, poput banana i životinja. Naravno, simboli Londona su glavni fokus. Predobro! Dizajner iz Madrida, Leandro Cano, predstavio je kolekciju koja je fokusirana na kožu i pletivo. Često naglašava bokove i ramena, što me podsjetilo na McQueena.
A sada hrvatski dizajneri... Kristina Burja (Krie Design) je predstavila kolekciju koja mi se nije svidjela... Jedino što mi se sviđalo su bile torbe. Unatoč tome što volim resice, nekako mi nisu funkcionirale u njenoj kolekciji. Također je koristila perje i zakovice, pa je možda to sve skupa u ovoj priči bilo too much. Kratke haljine su zaista ponekad izgledale jeftino. Kolekcija Iggyja Popovića je bila casual, ali pošto upotrebljava materijale poput svile i čipke, izgledala je puno skuplje nego svakodnevna odjeća. Svidjele su mi se kratke brokatne jaknice. Aba Tomicic Drvar nam je pokazala jako sofisticiranu kolekciju, punu prozirnih materijala. Glavne (ne)boje su bile crna, bijela i siva.
Sve u svemu, prvi dan je bio super, nadam se da će i danas biti jednako uspješno.
