Outfit post: streets of Paris

These pictures were taking outside the Henrik Vibskov presentation. A photographer of GQ China took my picture, too bad I didn't found it on their website (that would have been cool!) ;-)

I was wearing a Burberry Brit shirt with a Matinique knitted tie under a double-breasted blazer from Sisley. My black pair of jeans are by Filippa K, Jimmy Choo sneakers and a black leather bag of Burberry London.

I hope you like my outfit!

Event: opening of the first Belgian "Van Gils" store

We were very excited to join the opening of the very first "Van Gils" store in Belgium. Van Gils was already a popular brand in Belgium, but up until now they didn't have a flagship store yet. The fact that the first one is located in Antwerp, our fashion capital, is a very good choice.
 

Van Gils is a Dutch menswear brand and their stores have a quite unique concept: whilst shopping, you can drink a gin & tonic, smoke a cigar or even get a shave by a real barber... Just relax and enjoy. There is also a made to measure corner, which we think is really great.
 

Specially for the occasion (and for the Antwerp store only!), Van Gils created the 'No stitch, No story Jacket'. In the pictures below you can discover this interactive jacket. It has a special button that can be scanned with your smartphone. The Van Gils App enables you to check-in your jacket and share your location on social media.  How awesome and unique is that? The jacket has a beautiful touch too: the lining is a map of our lovely city.

 

Here is the address of the new store. It's definitely worth visiting!

Giorgio Armani and Emporio Armani - SS14 Collection

Earlier this week, we went to Brussels for the SS14 press days.

Very exciting, because we were invited to discover the new collection of Emporio Armani, as well as Giorgio Armani. Armani is one of our favourite designers. His looks are always so classy, stylish and timeless.
 

Recently 2 new stores opened in Antwerp.

The first one is the Emporio Armani store at 'Hopland' and the second one Armani Jeans at 'Meir'.
Congratulations on that, we're very happy with this acquisition to our city ;-)

 

 

We are going to let the pictures speak for themselves. Enjoy!

 

A while back, we already made a post about EA. So if you can't get enough, go check it out here:

PFW: Melinda Gloss

 The fashion show of the Spring/Summer 2014 collection by Melinda Gloss was our last show of Paris Fashion Week. And one of our favourites, for that matter!

Taking place in a gym of a local high school on a very hot summer day, brave models showed the collection. Kudos for keeping a straight face in the unbearable heat!

The collection spoke to us because of the use of technical fabrics, like leather and quilted fabric. Take a closer look to the double-breasted blazer in the last picture. Gorgeous, isn't it?

Graphic prints were the finishing touch on some looks (like the sneakers under a slim-fit suit), or sometimes the print was the most important part of the whole look itself (like in the seventh picture).

The "preppy casual" style and use of colour are just magnificent. From whites to dark blue, from bright yellow to all kinds of green,... Somehow it works perfectly and the result is beautiful.

Melinda Gloss sure has 2 new fans. Enjoy our pictures!
