Our little secret

I recently discovered Room of Soes, a lovely webshop with one-of-a-kind items and vintage treasures. 

Because it is not very well-known, I wanted to keep the site for myself but it is just to beautiful not to share. 

So here's our little secret, Room of Soes.

Les Filles are just back home from attending the SS13 Tony Cohen show during Amsterdam Fashion Week. 

The show was amazing : the clothes are very elegant and a mix of colors. Neon, pastels, nude and black are colors which return in the designs. All mixed with Tony's signature: glitter and glamour. Below you can find a video of the runway finale.

Downtown exposition Maison de Bonneterie

Thursday Les Filles attended the opening of the Downtown exposition by Maison de Bonneterie. 


This exposition is part of the official downtown program of Amsterdam Fashion Week. During this exposition Leonie Smelt, Marloes Blaas and Pauline van Dongen are showing a combination of new and old designs. Pauline van Dongen created even new designs, especially for this exhibition. Besides the designs you can also have a closer look to the inspiration of the designers. Which materials do they use? How works the creative journey from drawing board to design? All these questions can be answered during this exposition from 6th till 15th of July.

Graduated

It's official: I'm graduated! 

It took a bit of blood, sweat and tears but it is all worth it with the 8 on my diploma. Right now I am the happiest girl in the world! Also a little bit nervous, cause who can tell me what I will do next?! But at this moment I'm forcing myself not to think about the future that often and enjoy my well deserved holiday which will start with throwing a kick-ass party! Bye bye student life, hello working life!

Iris van Herpen

Last night Dutch designer Iris van Herpen showed her AW12 collection at Paris Fashion Week. 


Van Herpen is known for her collections made of special materials and last night she showed a recognizable Van Herpen collection. Yesterday she showed a collection of alien-like designs made ​​of unusual materials such as copper, silicone and PVC. All the designs are made in an unprecedented manner, a new 3D technique called 'Mammoth Stereolithography. This 3-D printing process is built up segment for segment in a sheath of polymer. The polymer hardens once it comes into contact with a laser beam, resulting in a more complex and layered form. Are you following yet? 

Diem Chau

Artist Diem Chau

Chau combines common mediums and common means to create delicate vignettes of fleeting memory, 

gesture and form,resulting in works that combine egalitarian sensibility and minimalist restraint. 

Her work touches on the value of Storytelling,Myths and its ability to connect us to each other through 

cultural and humanistic similarities. Chau's current work drifts intonew territory by exploring the 

periphery of the narrative, moments forgotten and faded, or too brief to retain.

We just love the tiny work of Diem Chau. It's so adorable!
