On Monday was the grand finale of Project Catwalk here in Amsterdam. As it will be on television soon, we don't want to spoil the surprise and wont tell you who the winner is. Spice PR will represent the wining designer, so don't worry, we will hook you up with all the informations at some point. In the words of Heidi Klum, about the fashion industry, I'm ending this post: "One day you are IN and the next you are OUT"!

Prelude

Last night, our two Spice girls Rosa and Candy went to the Prelude show in the Le Grand Hotel, here in Amsterdam. It was the seventh edition of the Prelude fashion salon, a night dedicated to the emerging fashion designers, organized by Mercedes-Benz and the Dutch Fashion Foundation. The new Spring/Summer 2010 collections were presented by: Catta Donkersloot, Conny Groenewegen, Mattijs and Sjaak Hullekes with each of their own individual presentations. We saw a classic runway show combined with different tableau vivant and back outside for another show. Although it was raining it was a great and very chic night.

Stranger In Paradiso

Hans Ubbink showed last night in the Paradiso his new SS10 collection with the theme: "Stranger in Paradiso". It was a night where Hans took us to a journey to the desert and back. With thunderstorms and green gras and the perfect outfit for each occasion. As Jim Morrison from the Doors use to say: People are strange, when you are a stranger."

BBB

In the first week of July a few of our Spice girls went to see some of our clients in Berlin during Fashion Week, Bread & Butter & Premium. It was a hot, busy, fashionable and exciting weekend in the German capital. Congratulations to Bread & Butter for coming back home and for a great location! Besides our clients we saw a lot of familiar faces and were proud that Amsterdam was so well represented!

White Night

Sensation celebrated this year its 10th edition in the Amsterdam Arena. Dress code, as usual was strictly in white in addition to the overall theme "Wicked Wonderland". It was definitely wicked with very special guests like the Black Eye Peas and great DJ spinning their decks. MAC cosmetics was in charge of the make-up in the backstage to really transport the feeling of the theme "Wicked Wonderland".

Seeing without boundaries

On Tuesday June 16, 2009, was the Silhouette event. In order to help people, to find the perfect rimless glasses, Silhouette developed the "Rimless Aesthetic Program" in collaboration with the well-known make-up artist Mary Greenwell.
