Better than The September Issue

Last  night I found a documentary I was absolutely unaware of. Seconds later the tiredness was forgotten and my bed time postponed. I had to watch it immediately.

If you saw The September Issue, you will enjoy this story directed by Christine Hall for BBC1 as a part of Boss Women series. The camera follows Anna Wintour as she works on the February issue of Vogue, travels to Paris and shares her memories and thoughts about fashion and life.

To me, this documentary felt more frank, more sincere – there was definitely less hype and more depth in it compared to the latest one. It made me like Anna even more. I found her, yet again, absolutely fascinating.

Weekend sign off

I find it really curious to see which clothes from fashion collections get picked by fashion magazine editors and stylists. In a case of Diane von Furstenberg Spring 2011 collection, the Avram wrap dress in a gorgeous rich amethyst shade is a true gem that have already been caressing the curves of some of the most beautiful models on pages of Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, Marie Claire and Elle. It’s just such a stunning piece!

I thought creating a small picture-filled post would be perfect for Saturday – to celebrate the dress, please your eyes and keep the mind free and ready for weekend.

Wishing you a wonderful day!

Always yours,
