I couldn’t just walk past a magazine with such a fabulously vintage-inspired cover as new mag Freestyle Magazine. Published in Berlin, the new mag comes inside a Frisbee, which will be designed by different artists for each issue. A bit too gimmicky for me, but the fashion spreads and features look promising, I especially love the Peeping Tom photo story. Now if I would only have £15 (a hefty price dare I say!) spare I would go out at once and get myself a copy.
QueensOfVintage.com is organizing a Chanel fash mob for nest week Thursday 30 July.
“Put on your best Chanel or dress as the grande dame of fashion herself in a LBD and faux pearls and join the QueensOfVintage.com fashmob on Thursday, 30 July 2009 at 18.00 at St Pancras International station. The first 15 Chanel lovers to turn up will receive an exlusive Coco Avant Chanel gift. To celebrate the launch of the much anticipated film Coco Before Chanel (UK release 31 July 2009) starring Audrey Tautou, QueensOfVintage.com will be hosting, the first ever Chanel fashmob (not flashmob) in homage to one of history’s greatest fashion designers.
Fashion lovers and vintage queens will gather in their finest attire to wave at the Eurostar and share their enthusiasm for the legendary Parisian label. The first 5 to join our get-together will be receiving Chanel biographies, while the first fifteen can bag themselves the exclusive soundtrack to Coco Before Chanel.”
I can’t stand Peaches Geldorf, I think she’s an irritating little brat. I have to admit though that, gulp, I actually like some of her designs for Brit label PPQ. Gulp.
