Good Morning! Do you feet hurt from last night? Mine do, a lot. But, as much as I would have loved to leave my heels at home, I couldn't attend the most fashionable party of the year in flats. Yesterday night, Boffism was at The Palace Hotel in Sliema for the Runway Malta Launch Party. One word to describe the event: pure glamour. Oh wait, those are two words.
Drinks! |
All guests were greeted with a welcome drink and a photo on the red carpet. Needless to say, that made me very happy already! My gold brocade dress, my killer heels and most importantly, my Canon, were ready to shoot the all fashion insiders at the party. There was one problem, where should I start from? Everyone looked amazing. You can find all the photos from yesterday's event on my Facebook Page in this album.
It was very hard to single out a couple of pictures to show over here. As I said, all the guests looked stunning (I wasn't expecting anything less to be honest), but some of them just stole the spotlight.
First up, British designer Hasan Hejazi who had some serious colour blocking going on. It's such a pleasure to see guys doing colour blocking. It makes me happy! I must confess that the first person who grabbed my attention was this young designer, so Kudos to him!
You all know very well by now that I'm all excited about androgyny, especially bow-ties! So I was exhilarated when I spotted a pretty lady wearing a golden bow-tie and a feminine black skirt. I had to take a photo of the look! Oh, and don't you just love that floral maxi dress as well? So flattering!
Just Lovely! |
I spotted the two ladies in the following picture as they were waiting by the bar. The orange dress immediately caught my attention! I enjoy meeting people who can pull off orange so well, because they are indeed only a few. That chain necklace is an amazing eye-catching piece and it works fantastically on the black dress. It reminds me I must get one very, very soon!
Loving the shoes too :) |
Blue eye-shadow is one of my pet peeves, but Estelle managed to change my mind. I mean, how could you not change your mind when someone makes blue eye-shadow look so damn gorgeous! As always, Estelle, one of the models gracing the runway later on today, look polished to perfection! Such a style icon :)
Estelle and myself :) |
I was lucky enough to exchange a few words with two international designers from The Netherlands, namely Nawie Kuiper and Branko Popovic. Their talent is mind-blowing. Honestly, beyond words.
I love! |
Another designer who will be pleasing our eyes with an unimaginable collection later on today is Gori de Palma, who came all the way from Spain. Quite frankly, it's physically impossible to consider Gori de Palma just another face in the crowd. Excuse my blurred photo, it must have been excitement!
Must.take.better.pictures.when.excited. |
I was really excited to meet Pavli at the event, and I was overwhelmed by her amazing sense of style. Doesn't she look sophisticated in her colour-blocking combo? Teal is such a lovely colour too! Pavli and male model Justin were among the best dressed of the night!
Rawr! |
Last but not least, I admire my sister Christa for being brave enough to wear a white dress. Not everyone can pull it off, me included, so twelve points to you sis!
I might steal your clutch bag by the way. |
All the guests at the party got a sneak peak into some of the collections that are going to be showcased today. There are a couple of pictures on my Facebook Page but I didn't want to spoil the fun by showing you too many pictures from the collections before the actual catwalk shows. I'M EVIL, MUHAHAHA!
I hope to see and capture many of you at Runway Malta later on today!
