We fell in love with SACK’S relaxed, feminine and romantic signature look. Great everyday pieces in soft colors and materials with ruffles and lace detailing characterize their SS11 collection. Layer them for an airy and nonchalant look that is perfect for this season!

The 14th edition of the Amsterdam International Fashion Week starts tonight. One of our favorite Dutch designers Jan Taminiau will open this fantastic fashion week with two couture shows.

Jan Taminiau presents his demi couture collection ‘Seperates’ and his haute couture collection ‘Irradiance’. There are also catwalk shows of Monique Collignon, Spijkers & Spijkers, Bas Kosters and Tony Cohen on the schedule. That promises a lot of inspiration! The AIFW takes place in the Westergasfabriek Amsterdam, January 26th till 30th.

The safari look dominates the catwalk this season. Burberry, Donna Karan, Banana Republic and Barbara Bui were all inspired by this look. Animal prints, desert colours and leather are indispensable in this trend.  This season the safari look goes chic!

Aaiko’s catwalk show at the Modefabriek in de Rai Amsterdam is always promising. On Sunday, January 23 at the 30th edition, Little Soho was sitting front row and ready to admire the new collection of A/W ’11/’12.

The show was divided into three styles: during the first theme the color old orange jumped out. Combined with dark and light brown, it is becoming a musthave in the autumn and winter ’11/’12. We saw many leather, fake fur and knitwear in this theme. Jumpsuits ramain for a while and ruffles finished the items graceful.

In the second theme we saw many dark blue shades. This color looks great on velvet peaces and with tie dye prints. The trend of this summer, safari green subtly comes back in this theme. Contrasting were the striking red pant and jacket. Bloody beautiful!

Theme three was all black. The chic items are enriched with lace, leather pieces and sequins. Tweed sets (a jacket with a matching skirt) are elegant musthaves this season.

The inventor behind the Scandinavian brand Custommade, Christian Dam, dreamed of updating the classic tradition of the haute couture concept to a modern and accessible level. In 2002 his dream became reality and has since evolved into a modern design company that creates timeless yet contemporary pieces that have distinctive imprints of its Scandinavian roots.

The Custommade’s sophisticated urban woman appreciates the clean Scandinavian designs, uncompromised quality and edgy details. Custommade translate each classical tradition into the ever-changing demands of the trends. Below you can see a grip of the stunning collection of S/S ’11. From now we’re totally in love with this amazing brand…. online very soon!

Sensual, light fabrics and sweet colors are the key words of the S/S 2011 by Dante 6. The new collection is inspired by ‘the gentle woman’. The Dutch label will show you the essence of the new collection: full of love and ready to wear! Now at littlesoho.com!

The leading color on the red carpet at the 68th Golden Globe Awards last night was sweet juicy pink. The pregnant actress Natalie Portman looked stunning in her soft pink dress by Viktor & Rolf. The best actress winner enriched the romantic design with a hand-embroidered red crystal rose, matching high heels and a clutch. A risky combination of colors, but so successful!
