Look of the Day.131: Rachel's place in NY

Wearing dress by StyleStalker and Giuseppe Zanotti shoes
My beloved aussie sister Rachel(the woman behind the coolest aussie label StyleStalker) took this picture when I was climbing off her staircase at her New York apartment during fashion week. Not sure when I decided to monkey around with those heels on, but it clearly wasn't the very best idea hahaha. Anyway I'm currently sorting my suitcase as in a few hours I'm off to Paris. I'll be attending tomorrow Loewe's show, then quick trip to Madrid for some events, back to Paris for the incredible show of Elie Saab and back to Madrid... yes... another non stop week :)

NewYork fashion week has been an amazing week as it normally is. Hanging around with my gals Michelle and Rachel. Endless nights with Pedro Garcia's PR and "the" man in town Felix, Gabi Palatchi , Pablo and Pelayo. Meet up with fellow bloggers at the Tribeca Grand and saw old faces too at the Lincoln Centre. Highlights of the week: Shooting with Backyard Bill for GQ USA . Sunbathing at Soho House and going "gaga" with the new African inspired collections like the one Michael Kors presented this season. Rocking "school girl" Theory's skirts and shirts around New York  who threw, for me,one of the best shows in town. Bumping into Rachel Zoe at Oscar de la Renta. Running into Cyril Foinet (Trendland) quite a few times during the party circuit. Raving with Alexander Wang at Pier 40. Catching up with the coolest people in LA and also my very adored friends, Morgan and Douglas!!! Eating thousand of burgers and fries: american style! in the middle of the night. Trotting around Brooklyn. Wearing an incredible Emilio Pucci sequence bodysuit while dancing at BoomBoom Room inside the glass toilets... New York I can't wait to be back with you!!!!

Davidelfin is more than a label, more than a name, more than a designer. David, the man himself, is  also a wonderful creature and talented designer, a great person that I get to admire more and more over the years... His latest collection, "Katharsis" showed last saturday during CMFW has been my favourite one ever! The Louboutin shoes are just... like a princess dream.. David even described them as "mermaid shoes"! The best bit of this year's collection is that, for the very first time, my friend Pelayo has become part of the designing team, creating all the handbags for the show! I felt so proud for him! At the show was, my also friend, the designer Stuart Vevers (Loewe) who is always full of life and happiness and who just launched a new collaboration for his brand!
The Torretta family are simply wonderful, What can I say?? I know well how this works myself, my very own family has been working in the retail industry for over 30 years and I know what it is like from hte "backstage side"...and I felt that, the Torretta family shares the exact same connexion too! I love family gathering together! :) For their exquisite show they booked the top model Carmen Kass who opened and closed the show.. and check those long dresses..to DIE for!!!
