An early morning, early this week on a random side street a minute before class. The day before, I decided to invest in this topshop boutique coat cos I needed something that actually keeps me warm, bye for now beloved leather jackets.. the dress you already saw here before - I am joining a few fellow bloggers on the note of not being able to get enought of it.

this week will be busy, and I have a lot to blog about.. so stay tuned sweeties!

thank you all who took part in my giveaways! I will choose the winners tonight..

and oh, how was your FNI? did you shop something good? I had to run down to topshop to check the kate moss collection launch! (but then of course I ran back and stayid glued to my computer for the rest of the night)  I bought a little thing... and although it very summery I think I need to show you it soon... it's soo cuuuuuute! Grazia TV did a little video on my favorite pieces, check it out on my twitter here

JOGJA FASHION WEEK 2010 : The Recent Future

buklet dan undangan

Jogja Fashion Week tahun 2010 ini berlangsung 27-31 Oktober di JEC. Walaupun berlangsung saat terjadinya letusan besar Gunung Merapi, tapi tidak menyurutkan semangat kreatifitas para fashion people kota Jogja dan Indonesia. Terbukti dengan lebih dari 60 designer yang ikut berpartisipasi dalam gelaran peragaan busana rutin terbesar di Jogja ini.
Berbeda dengan tahun lalu yg dilangsungkan di Pagelaran Kraton, JFW kali ini "agak susah diakses kalangan umum". Penerapan sistem undangan cukup membuat event ini terasa agak eksklusif, dan saya rasa kurang tepat untuk misi memasyarakatkan fashion di kalangan masyarakat.
Namun, banyak nya designer yg berpartisipasi, catwalk yg lbh bagus (terbuat dr bbahan yg bukan lagi karpet), serta adanya lomba design dirasa menjadi point positive gelaran tahun ini. Belum lagi APPMI Fashion Tendance dan show tunggal Eco-Fashion oleh Ninik Darmawan turut memberi nilai plus.

Sayang nya, event fashion week seperti ini kurang bisa diapresiasi masyarakat. Seharusnya fashion week bisa merepresentasikan trend yang ada serta memberikan gambaran trend ke depan nya. Namun, tak sesuai tag line nya, masih saja tidak berimbang komposisi fashion show yang sarat budaya, dan melulu batik dan kebaya, dengan koleksi yg lebih pret a porter atau ready to wear.Melestarikan budaya itu harus terus dilakukan, but fashion is about moving forward.
Semoga tahun depan JFW bisa lebih baik lagi dan mampu mempererat komunitas fashion secara keseluruhan. Tak cuma satu 'genre" dan komunitas tertentu saja.
