Better Late Than Never

Photographed By Ellinor Forje

Today I spent the afternoon scheming through and sorting out my archive of photos taken last year; and came to discover that the pictures I snapped during the presentation of Ivana Helsinki's Spring and Summer 2011 Collection, at the New York Fashion Week last fall, had yet to see the light of day. So tahtaaaah!

Right after the Ivana Helsinki show - as if my mind hadn't been blown away already, I ran into photographer Annika Lundvall, and she introduced me to the work of Christina Strindlund, and Fräulein von Hast's SS '11 collection.

The fashion week was a riot. Naomi Campbell, put up quite a spectacular catwalk deluxe outside the D&G store on Madison Avenue. Next Fashion's Night Out, I'm going to have to figure out a way to be at two places at one and the same time. So if you're a scientist out there listening, you need to get this cloning business up to scratch, pronto! As I missed out on Robin Thicke's sultry performance over at Hugo Boss', downtown, the night Miss Campbell ran the city.

And while we're on the subject of music, Samantha Ronson, literally tore the house down with her deejaying skills, on the eve of her sister's fashion show.

Also, during the week, after exiting the Andy & Debb Showroom, I ran into a person - photographer whom I've admired for a long time. His name is Bruce Weber. He was very friendly and stopped for a chat, before making his way to the Anna Sui show.

Then there were the fashionable people, who live their lives in the fastlane, at the Zac Posen affair. One of the models on Posen's runway, had a show stopping walk, that needs to be mentioned. She was on point with the swagger.

I must add that Solange Knowles and the Simmons' girls, looked pretty rad, too. At a different show, on a different date. So did Nicole Murphy.

And just when I was about to seperate fiction from reality, Rebecca Romijn showed up in a dress, the exact same colour and texture of Mystique's skin. Like it was made of it. It was too much of a coincidence for it to slide me by.
