Fashion MONTH! UPDATED!

Hello! Hello!

We're very lucky - we live in the era when information spreads quicklier than it appears. Thanks to the Internet and the television we can stay at home, in comfort and cosiness, attend New York Fashion Week in the Lincoln Center, in London, Milan, Paris, remember Stockholm Fashion Week while reading Yvan Rodic's blog, admire young Tavi Gevinson who has collaborated with Style.com and POP magazine this year.

On the one hand, it's bad that designers didn't follow Natalie Massenet's advice and didn't skip a season. That could be a real strategic decision which would have brought lots of benefits in the future (let us remind you that during an interview with Business of Fashion Natalie Massenet - the founder of the biggest on-line luxury fashion retailer Net-a-porter - insisted that the only solution of the main problems of fashion market
[- millions of losses of fashion houses because of unexpected climate changes.
- imitations, counterfeits, fakes which have a whole half a year (from the designer fashion show to the actual start of selling) to fill the market all over the world.
- reduce of interest to the collection during the period between the show (seen on the Internet) and the appearing of clothes in shops.
- crisis of print-media, when it has to comment collections which have already been carefully studied by bloggers and on-line-media]
was to skip a season and to pass on to the system "In autumn we show Fall/Winter collections, in spring - Spring/Summer".

On the other hand, it's very cool! Because a) this solution is questionable, b) we can admire new, audacious (?), bright (like all the media promised in its fashion forecasts), interesting and not boring (that's for sure) collections of the best desighers.

So, we suggest you looking through our own timetable of the Fashion MONTH (NY + London + Milan + Paris)
