Today marks a day of excitement for me as the 6th Mozambique Fashion Week begins today.
With 28 young designers, who would not be excited to see the creative innovation about to be showcased. Along with the young designers will be international designers and established African designers set to show on the last days of the event which runs from the 6-11th. I'm not speaking on any particular designer yet as I still want to see what the young ones have to offer.

So yeah up late browsing online and see the 10 best dresses for 2010 by Vogue Mag. Two pieces was sure looking like influenced by traditional Fabrics. Here is the link and 2 dresses with familiar patterns.
I first meet Romina Karamanea on myspace in 05. I fell in love with her work. Once I saw the complexity of the pattern making and just her flawless innovation and technique I was sold, not to mention the glasses lok her up.
From Saint Martins to London Fashion Week

We are talking about a time when Beyonce and Rhianna was babies.
This is why in the 80's I would stay up late night Friday and Saturday.
This is who set the standard and everything else was just a copy.
This is why I am not impressed with all the humbug of today.
I've seen it all already.

Not really a blog follower myself. I actually like to to get lost online and find things on my own. I recently stumbled up on a blog and these kids are dope had to make mention to them and what they do. So what really brought me to liking these kids was there personal style and unique way of how they blend the prep and street. This was how we use to dress cause we went to private school but was not stuck up kids so I can totally relate to this style. Funny how whats old comes back again and with a bang. I also like how these kids know what an actual prockpie hat is and who porkpie was, then they used some African fabric on the hat...NICE TOUCH!... Must be of some Caribbean heritage or got a Guyanese friend some where. Yo big ups to what you do and keep it original always Bless
