Frida Gustavsson, Dorothea Barth Jörgensen and Nimuë Smit in Calvin Klein Spring Summer 2010 Collection
I cannot call myself a fan of Calvin Klein at all – somehow the American label just seems to be too hyped, too popular and just not me. However, when I saw the Spring/Summer 2010 collection on Video Fashion, I just fell very deeply for it. I love the quiet but distinct and crisp voice the collection has. It is a real genuine charmer!

Sara Blomqvist, Daul Kim and Maria Kashleva in Dries Van Noten
“We went on a voyage, darling!” exclaimed the bold and extravagant Stylist Catherine Baba. “We were in Bali. We were in India. We were everywhere!” Well… What are we waiting for? Let’s hop on the style wagon and join Belgian designer Dries Van Noten for an unforgettable journey to South East Asia in refined style!

Well… After four fantastic fashion weeks in New York, London, Milan and Paris, it’s time to round everything up. One of the things to work on is, of course, to make a list of favorite models, especially the ones who made our heart pulse faster and faster as they walked on the runway. For me, there were five girls, who I just can’t seem to get enough of this spring/summer 2010. Here they are in alphabetical order.
Scandinavian sells: Freja Beha Erichsen and Frida Gustavsson
The first two girls from the list both hail from Scandinavia and their names both start with a fantastic letter: Freja Beha Erichsen from Denmark and Frida Gustavsson from Sweden. I just love Freja’s versatility and her unique personality. She can wear any masculine or feminine outfits and she will look striking in both! I also love the fact that she doesn’t just wear the clothes. She works the clothes in her own style, when she wears it. It is no wonder that she scored 43 shows this spring/summer. Freja’s highlight this season must be at the Chanel show when she kissed with Dutch model Lara Stone in the hay. Cheeky!

Dorothea Barth Jörgensen, Frida Gustavsson and Melissa Bell in Acne
Many people know Acne only as the avant-garde leader in the Jeans sector of the fashion world. Surely, this Swedish brand, whose name is an acronym standing for “Ambition to Create Novel Expression”, is more than just jeans! It’s also amazing clothes to beautify everyday!

Liu Wen, Yulia Kharlaponova and Frida Gustavsson in Roland Mouret
I was pleasantly surprised when I spotted an Asian face opening Roland Mouret’s Spring/Summer 2010 Show. That just comes to show the fashion world truly appreciates all kind of beauties from all corners of the world. Viva la Difference! Liu Wen was the name of the Chinese model, who graced Mr. Mouret’s glamorous runway as first face. Dressed in a deep V-necked dress in champagne gold with glimmering excess jewellery, Ms. Liu lighted up the illustrious runway with her grace and seductive Eastern appeal.

Constance Jablonski, Natasha Poly and Jacquelyn Jablonski in Céline
Yes, I do miss Ivana, but… well… one must move on. Seeing the first look from the new collection at the French house of Céline is surely a pleasant surprise. What? It’s leather for spring/summer! So tough, yet so absolutely chic! These contrasting elements certainly create the chemical sparks for a blasting introduction to the second super charming collection by British designer Phoebe Philo for Céline.

Valerija Kelava, Vanessa Hegelmaier and Tao Okamoto in Christopher Kane
It was slightly shocking for me to see that Christopher Kane, the celebrated British designer, did not build onto last season’s glittery glam influence, despite its pleasant reception; but rather swapped it for something completely banal: checks. In a derogatory manner, it is something that reminds me of 50s housewives and boring farmers from the outback. However, worked by the magic hands of Mr. Kane, ordinary everydays checks are turned instantly into check-me-out checks! Voila! Get ready to fly in another one of Mr. Kane’s most wanted collection!

Nimuë Smit, Hannah Holman and Ieva Laguna in Jonathan Saunders
When one ponders upon the label “Jonathan Saunders“, one always think of those awestriking print and patternwork distinctively of his. For Spring/Summer 2010, it seems like the CSM Graduate has a different approach than previously. Rather than focusing on bold and daring prints, subdued minimalism become the highlight of this season, creating an unbelievably light, extraordinarily clean and sensationally sleek collection.

Nichola Cyzy, Frida Gustavsson and Shu Pei Qin in Luella
Honestly, there was one point in my life when I feel that I am too old to wear Luella. So undoubtedly, during that time, my virtual life on the web became Luella-less. However, today, when I ponder upon pictures from Luella’s Spring/Summer 2010 collection, I came to that point of realisation: Luella might be cute and sweet and prim and proper, but that does not mean she is monotonous or age-specific at all. Namely, cute and sweet and prim and proper are not priviledged to young girls only, because the Luella girl is full of life and pleasant surprises.

Tilda Dahlgren and Charlie Westerberg in Cheap Monday Jeans
I have wanted to make this entry on Cheap Monday for a little while, all because I saw this sleek black doll wearing this ultra cool pair of ripped Cheap Monday jeans in the podium floor at the luxurious Lane Crawford department store. Then yesterday, I watched an interview of Swedish newcomer Frida Gustavsson on models.com. In it, the sweet Swede, who has sensationally swept New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2010 by storm, told us in that adorable voice of hers that she was wearing whatelse but those super sweet Swedish jeans. Well… How can I resist anymore?
