May 9th-10th,2014
Early May Day
in Helsinki is still rainy and windy, but it can’t stop fashion fetishists to
dig in Vanha Ylioppilastalo (Old University building) at Mannerheimintie 3. Second time
joining, this year I visit not only for newbie discovery, but also for friends
meeting and cheering.
Perhaps of the limitation of space, boutique shop Nina’s situates at the slightly chilly hallway. After welcome drinks at Boinade, I walk in and chat with designer at 2OR+BYYAT, staff of IVANAhelsinki, try EMMI shoes at Acolyth, silk lingerie at Tyra Therman, Missoni scarf at NÓMAD, and say hello to the Director of Marita Huurinainen. I am always fond of elegant and special jewelry, and this time I find the hand piece, made with pearls and copper at pulu, extremely fresh and beautiful. Unfortunately, ‘fashion minds think alike’, this lovely hand piece has been booked by 18:00. Blond and sweet designer of pulu, Marjo Haikonen, warmly says that she could customize this jewelry for me via the communication of email. Oh, yes, perhaps I should start to write her just now!
Arranged and sponsored by ELLE, Lumi and napakka,
the big difference of Fashion Stock Sales this year than last is that the DJ music
lives up the whole building, with the increasing designers’ attendance and
lower prices on unique fashion goods. What lack the most is the short numbers
of the fitting tents; I nearly have to wait for 10 minutes to try 4 pieces of lingerie
on. Still, harvest is abundant this year: a colourful silk underwear at TyraTherman, a black cotton, made in Finland skirt from Camilla Mikama, and a pair
of Carven suede high heels from Nina’s. I Definitely will show them off on
up-coming blog posts.
