By now, I can say it loud and clear – I have no passion for British or Italian designers. It’s weird, I know, but that’s just the way it is – I have never felt out of air watching Cavalli, Gucci, Burberry or even Fendi. Nothing.

It’s just that -

Bottega Veneta always takes my breath away. It’s the only Italian brand I’m sure I’d love to wear their everything. Weather I see their adds on magazines or walk by their store on 5th avenue – I always feel the same – breathless -

Same goes with Mulberry, but I have to admit it – it’s a new thing. I used to be as indifferent about them as I am towards Dolce & Gabbana. I just saw their Fall campaign and understood – they are breathtaking too -

P.S.

The last photo was taken by my friend Shelly Gross, who is a very talented fashion blogger (in Hebrew) and a fashion journalist. This picture appeared in her blog, and was taken at a fashion show which was held two weeks ago in Tel-Aviv. The legs belong to me and to another friend who is a fashion journalist, Aviv Bertele. I think it’s a very funny picture :-D

I just came back from the Castro Autumn/Winter 2010/11 fashion show. I picked my favorite items very carefully on this one, and I might be adding a few more as soon as I’m done thinking about them. What you see here bellow are those I love already:

Cute, ha?

Call me lucky or whatever comes up in your head when you read this: I got to go to Castro’s (Israeli very famous fashion brand) fashion show today. I’m guessing 500 people from the fashion industry of all its generations showed up this morning at Tel-Aviv harbor by 09:30am. As I was kindly warned by my colleagues, showing up at 10:30am was still being early but just in time to zip a quick latte and be placed in your seat. We got great 3rd row seats and soon after a great British band called Crazy P was on stage, waking everybody up with great tunes.

And the fashion? Hmmm. Acoording to Castro’s designers for women, belly tops are back on, and you won’t be able to get enough of Jeans shirts, sequins, leather and other shiny fabrics.

I say – it’s so last year’s everything. I have wrote about those trends months ago. Oh well.

As for the men’s collection – it was much more better than the women’s, that’s for sure. There was nothing new about it either, yet it was more stylish and defined.

The entire production was very successful, and I guess this is as close to glam you can get around here, so it was quite an experience. Kudos to Castro’s PR company and other executioners, fore it was very well pulled through, in spite the huge delay which killed my morning.

The finale -
