Konstantina Agaliou @ 9th AXDW


Konstantina Agaliou has been a resident at AXDW for the past few seasons. A very familiar, enthusiastic and friendly face, so far amongst the audience. Winner of the 1st national and 3rd European award at Chevrolet's Futuristic Design Competition in 2010, today she will be the face taking the bow on the actual catwalk. Her show, Conceptual Geometry, is scheduled for 18:00. Here's a glimpse of her portfolio, on video:

Celebrity Skin - AXDW show & invites

Here's a peep from 'DRAmaTIC DISclipiNE', Celebrity Skin's a/w 11 collection to be presented at Athens Xclusive Designers Week shortly. Save the date: Monday, March 21st at 19.30.

It's going to be dramatic alright, with theatrical signature shapes revisited and applied on wool and synthetic fabrics, styled with saturated add-ons, all in disciplined shades of black and ash grey.

Scheduled to begin with a fashion film of approximately 6 minutes by Nectarios Karolos Papazacharias, starring 10 models as well as Eleonora Zouganeli, Ada Livitsanou, Isaia Matiaba, Penelope Anastasopoulou and Alexis Foukos. It's meant to be a visualization of Sinead O'Connor's song 'Troy', featuring people that pose a source of inspiration to designer duo Dimitris Strepkos and Eleni Barla for being "effortless style icons".

Custo Barcelona a/w 11

For the past few winters I keep promising myself I'll ditch the greyscale wardrobe. Receiving these images from Custo Barcelona's a/w 11 show in New York was a colourful slap: next winter will be a bright one.
