Sandra Backlund

Great innovative designer Sandra Backlund from Sweden. She uses new materials like paper, hair, clothespins and knitting in a totally different perspective. Everything is used as sculptural materials and put into amazing 3D designs. Her starting point is the human body and the handcraft process is very important. 'It's a freedom to make your own fabric while working'. She experiments a lot with different materials and techniques but it are her three-dimensional collage knittings that are the most significant.
Sandra Backlund's Spring/Summer 2010 collection is the first one to go into production.

'The Wooden Shoe'

Clogs make this season their true entrance in fashion. We see them several times in different versions. Viktor & Rolf introduced the Wooden shoe in their 2007-2008 fall collection inspired on the Dutch traditional costume. Now many designers have made their own version of the shoe. It's the 'Farm of the future'.

Fashion for charity

Charity is hot. Show your good heart, and give something back to the ones with less. Social security and good for your Karma too. This is also arriving fashion more and more.

Sneak peek Berlin

I went to Berlin for a couple of days and the streetculture there is just awesome. It's a great place for vintage, design and bio. Again another city who took my heart... Take this sneak peek and sniff some of Berlin's authenticity.
