Erotokritos SS2012 at AXDW

For a designer to be called "commercial" is a good thing, because it means lots of people want to buy their clothes. In Erotokritos' case, "lots" definitely includes me as well!

Very cute clothes, great quality, highly wearable in real life. I approve.

Stelios Koudounaris "Entropia" SS2012

Stelios Koudounaris showed his Spring/Summer 2012 collection titled Entropia last Saturday, at the 10th Athens Xclusive Designers Week.

I could just moderately say that it was totally my cup of tea or just let go and scream that I loved it!

The clothes were inspired-yet-wearable and the whole look of his models walking down the catwalk made me just wish for summer to come earlier.

And on top, Stelios is definitely one of those designers that can do equally well designing for men, as well as women.

His menswear was simple and beautiful.
















Congratulations Stelios!

Conquistador SS2011 at AXDW

Tassos Sofroniou is a Greek designer, stylist, photographer, TV persona and one-man-show behind menswear label Conquistador. Although the collection has been up and running for a while now, this was its first ever runway show.

I always have great respect towards the great craftmanship of his designs (here it was mostly about motorcycle-inspired pants) yet I feel there could have been less of that nude-beige fabric. I mean, if it can't flatter the Adonis lookalike model, that blond topless one had the whole audience gasping everytime he set foot on the runway, then it won't be of any good to anybody else. My favourite piece however, were the leather shorts (not pictured here as we didn't have a good place to shoot proper pics).

To learn more about Tassos Sofroniou and Conquistador, read the interview he granted me back in March.
