Fashion, oh fashion....




I know the summer streetguide hasn't emerged as promised but honestly the absolutely crap weather besides the week i spent abroad has kinda slowed it down.
Last week i came across another great thing in spring Helsinki and that is fashion as raw as it gets. Every being capable of dressing themselves or having someone to do it for them have been strutting around in their best summerwear. It's absolutely wonderful to realize how good looking people this town holds and that they have only been submerged in the puffy stuffed sea of warm clothing, waiting to bare it all and get noticed again.
Also the graduation season is upon us and thankfully a bunch of fresh clothing designers are putting together their annual display of talent. I went to see the show by Lahden Muotoiluinstituutti last week and this coming wednesday is the taik's turn. Here are my favorites from the first one.











I was especially thrilled to see these beautiful under-and swimwear, nothing great in that genre has come out recently.

meanwhile..

People seem to be a bit down about the slosh finally hitting town after a gruelling long winter. Some hope is also in the air as the first bicyclers are out and about. I'll be putting together a helsinki-guide of my favorite streets during the next couple of months, so stay tuned if you're planning to visit this coming summer. I'll leave you with some pics of a Diesel Be Stupid video shoot I had a lot of fun doing with great people!
