Weekly Post by Spice's Davy

This week once again made me realize how proud I am of our team of hardworking Spice-girls, who all have the ability to think out of the box, take that extra step and are approaching this business in a non-conceptual way.

Quite a week with lot’s of events! We celebrated Jeffery Wests’ 1st anniversary with a very personal and inspiring performance of Ellen ten Damme, the Back to the Future NIKE Mag auction took place at the Planetarium with all proceeds donated to the Michael J. Fox foundation, The Bas Kosters for Zeeman launch was one of the most fun events we’ve ever done, The Supperclub 20th Anniversary party was a true celebration of everything Supperclub is famous for: A cool mixture of people, great music, sexy performances and the nicest finger foods. The TASCHEN Amsterdam opening brought together fashion people, architects, artists, photographers, make up artists and celebrities for a super nice opening event, hosted by the highly inspirational Mr. Benedikt Taschen. The Acne SS12 women’s presentation London was AMAZING, The Avelon Sample sale…crowded… All this, next to the regular work filled with emails, brainstorm sessions, meetings and preparations for the upcoming National Glamour Breakfast, Claes Iversen show, Filippa K event and so much more….

All Spice girls did and do amazing job to make everything happen! Without Claire, Tedje, Candy, Julie, Froukje, Tessa, Willa, Hansje, Puck, Martina, Elisah and our lovely interns, Spice wouldn’t be Spice! And I have the privilege to guide them here and there…

Jeffery West loves Ellen ten Damme

Last Thursday the extravagant men's footwear label Jeffery West celebrated their first anniversary. The new collection was presented with an intimate, but very rock & roll worthy performance by Ellen ten Damme. It was also the official opening of the photo exhibition in which Ellen ten Damme wears the shoes in her very own cheeky extravagant style, which is what she became known for. This exhibition is on display until early December in the Jeffery West boutique in the Runstraat 17 in Amsterdam. Because there is an enormous demand for these shoes, in the future the brand will also sell women's sizes. www.jeffery-west.nl

ACNE SPRING SUMMER 2012 WOMEN’S SHOW

“For Spring Summer 2012, I started the way that I always try to work, with something current and close to me. I recently took a family trip to Marrakesh, a place I have always had a strange relationship with as it’s such a big fashion subject. But then I went, I saw and it kicked me. This crazy melting pot of cultures, era’s, nationalities and influences – it is kind of the way I work fashion and I started to think of how a young woman from Stockholm would interpret this amazing place. Trying to capture these different influences we worked with denim, double silk and raw edged double cotton, creating a multicultural vibe. I know a trip is boring but sometimes it’s what you need.” Jonny Johansson

Over 500 people packed ACNE's show last Sunday night at the urban dis-used space of London's Old Sorting office. Thirty-two models paraded along a 50 meter long mirrored catwalk to a thumping house soundtrack. In line with the shows modernest Marrakesh Vibe, Yves Klein Blue waiters served Vodka martini's.

In attendance: Clemence Poesy - Model Irina Lazareanu - Style.com’s Tim Blanks - The XX - Romy Madley-Croft & Oliver Sims - Michelle Jank - Bloggers Susie Lau & Hanneli Mustaparta - Lady Laura Burlington - Vogue Australia’s Kirsty Clements - American Vogue’s Mark Holgate - Mr Hudson - Mimi Xu - Colin McDowell - Lisa Ephson - Mrs Burstein
