DANCING WITH THE STARS

Like almost every other country, Denmark has it´s own very popular Dance competition, called "Vild med dans".

I´m not going to comment the competition, but I have to say: - the way the Hostess, judges and dancers were dressed last night, surprised me. 

I wonder where their sense of style were? Usually the Hostess, Christiane Schaumburg-Müller looks great.

But the long t-shirt dress in a Snakeprint and rows of feathers by danish designer Benedikte Utzon, did not do her any justice at all in my humble opinion. -Of course, it is a matter of taste.

The two male judges looked quite okay, except for the jacket of Nikolaj Hübbe. It looked too tight and bad quality.
Jens Werner looked elegant, but when you looked closer at the details, the suit looked like it was made in China. Recognizable by the way the Lapel was pressed flat.

The Show has a team of dressmakers attached. But for once six designers from Denmark were assigned to design dresses for one of the dances.

I have to say, it showed. The dresses looked more like designer-dresses than real dancing-dresses. I was not impressed. But from experience I know it's not the easiest task to do either.

"SAY YES TO THE DRESS"

-Is a TLC reality series which follows events at Kleinfeld Bridal in New York City. 

-And "What Not to wear", are programs  I have been watching while in Montreal. But now TLC appears here in Denmark too, as a program you can select, after a free viewing period.

It´s funny to watch as a professional, because you get a glimpse of how things works over there.
Watching the first one from the famous bridal shop today, made me wonder about how woman shop for their wedding gowns.
 

Women wants to feel very special on their wedding day. So, a One-of-a-kind dress should be their first choice.
But I guess most women wants a big selection to choose from and that is what Kleinfeld´s is offering. They have the largest and finest selection of designer wedding gowns in the world. Of course that´s great, except when you don´t know what you want. The bigger the choice, the harder it is to choose.

In case you didn't know, I can make The One-of-a-kind wedding dress, if you know what you want. Just give me a call and make an appointment without any obligation.

STYLING

HELLO!

Styling is essential these days! Because it is all about appearance. To make a good impression and get noticed.

Celebrities often use professional stylists to look as good as possible. But with a sense of style and a little imagination you can look as good. You just have to make up your mind and consider what suits you.

Of course it depends on the occasion, but it does not take more than a few accessories to be stylish. Add a nice belt, shoes, jewellery, a bag, a hat or a scarf that fits your outfit and makes you stand out.

Here is a few classical examples with Style Icon, Audrey Hepburn, just for your inspiration.

AN EARLY DESIGN PROJECT

Before I started my formal education, I attended a computer-course for fashion-professionals at IN-Design in Copenhagen.

One of the projects was to design and create an outfit, to get through the whole process from idea to finished product. I don't remember what inspired me, but it turned out like this asymmetrical two-piece.

My commitment at the course led to a one year working experience as a teaching-assistant and further on to my formal education.

ITALIAN ACCESSORIES

During our few hours in Rome, I managed to take a few snapshots.
