August 16th, 2019 / by Alina Aliman / in: Cool things / No responses

I’ll know what I will wear next summer. At least I am pretty sure what I will have in my luggage for a sunny trip in Copenhagen. A lot of white and blue shirts, skirts with clean cuts and some asymmetrical pants, loose fabrics and the most summerish cotton dresses. Of course, and some ...

DZHUS’ anatomy: a look at the collection for fall/winter 2019/2020

August 12th, 2019 / by Alina Aliman / in: Cool things / No responses

It’s a little bit weird, I know. It’s a mix of some geometry and a lot of calculated architecture in Irina Dzhus’ clothes. It’s about order. And it’s black and white. Add to that an enormous amount of talent and beauty. Three years after I have discovered her designs, I am still amazed. ...

“Women think of all colors except the absence of color. I have said that black has it all. White too. Their beauty is absolute. It is the perfect harmony”, said Gabrielle Chanel. And, as a girl white a black & white obsession (at least when it comes to clothes), I couldn’t be happier. ...

Overload with white. Meet Culture of Excess collection and the designer Mirela Cioară

July 29th, 2019 / by Alina Aliman / in: Dazzling stories / No responses

OK, I cheated a bit, because Mirela Cioară collection wasn’t all about white - but as usual, the details are in the eye of the beholder. Her collection, Culture of Excess, was nothing less that the title let me thought about it: a lot of elaborate details, laces, embroidery, pearls, stitches… ...

MDVTM 2019 Fashion Gala: it was all in the name of fashion

July 15th, 2019 / by Alina Aliman / in: Cool things / No responses

Sometimes, the fashion months is not in March. This year, the fashion month started at UNARTE Bucharest, continued to Cluj-Napoca, then to Timișoara and (probably) it will stop at Feeric Fashion Week. And, as in any fashion month, one of the weeks is more poetic and other more artistic. This ...
