Dutch Fashion Awards

Yesterdaynight I was in The Hague to visit the Dutch Fashion Awards 2011. It was held in a big church, it was so beautiful!


My friend Amanda was sparkly to the max, as always!
The show featured collections by last year's winner Iris van Herpen, and of course by 2011's nominees Erik Frenken (Avelon), Joline Jolink, Conny Groenewegen, Hyun Yeu (Ado Les Scents) and Marcha Hüskes.


Conny Groenewegen was the big winner of the evening with her futuristic-yet-classic knitwear label CG! Well deserved, I say.
I ended the evening in style by hitching a ride back to Amsterdam with very friendly strangers and had a post-midnight snackbar visit with the lovely Yvan, after we failed to find ANY bar that's open after 3:30 AM on a friday night. In the center of Amsterdam.

Well, it was a really fun night! Thanks UPR for inviting me!

Song of the day: Lykke Li - Get Some
