This week is Fashion Week in Riga, and I'm tweeting all about it! (See left-hand side of blog) I've already written about a few here, but now that Twitter has expanded my world, I can do a more full report on the whole week of fashion and what I loved. So far I loooove Triinu Pungits as much as ever, but Janis Šnē totally gripped me with (what I will consider) icicle inspired designs, possibly origami inspired since they look like paper. Plus, putting icicle-origami daggers where your eyebrows are is totally what I'm into. Because, FASHION. People who have no imagination hate on haute design because it's inaccessible, but people who understand flights of fancy and the power of image through clothing get it. I love me some practical wear, but I love some crazy shit that I would never dare wear outside the house because I am a timid person. It's fun to see clothing be a wearable piece of art instead of the boring reasons we all wear clothes.
So follow my handle for some more fashion updates before I do a round-up of my favorite Riga fashion moments. (I am really hoping mareunrols shows up because their stuff is BOMB, too) If you need the lowdown on a few designers in CEE to fully appreciate my tweets, read up here.
