Margin London: eine kleine aber feine Modemesse! Am 30.7.09 von florence noch kein Kommentar Wir haben es versprochen, die Margin London prangt schon seit Monaten dick in unserer Agenda! Nach der Reizüberflutung und dem Marathon zwischen den Hallen der BBB kommt uns die intim gehaltene Modemesse in London gerade recht. Präsentiert werden am 2. & 3. August 09 sorgfältig selektierte britische und internationale Labels, die sich der gängigen Tendenz nach, von der anfänglich eher sportlichen Streetwear hin zu einem alltagstauglichen, gehobenen Streetchic bewegen. Neben den aufstrebenden, meist noch unbekannten Brands stellen auch ausgesuchte Künstler ihre Werke aus. So präsentiert sich die ganze Messe in intimer Atmosphäre und mit viel Charme – wie ihr in Rahels letztjährigem Bericht nachlesen könnt – als würde man die Wohnung oder den Ankleideschrank eines befreundeten Stylisten oder Modefanatikers besuchen. In diesem Fall ist der Bekannte Odysseas, der die künstlerische Modemesse vor acht Jahren ins Leben rief und mit seiner persönlichen Labelauswahl und Stilsicherheit unser modisches Vertrauen heraufbeschwört. Zu entdecken wird es Mode- und auch Schmuckbrands wie Jojo & Mac, Antoinette, Itsus und Germain Minette geben, die an der Margin ihr industrielles Debüt geben und Streetwear Künstler wie Lazy Oaf oder Tri vo of Syke.Wer sich am kommenden Wochenende weder in London befindet, noch im Fashionsegment tätig ist (um Anmeldung wird gebeten!), der kann auch auf der Website von Margin stöbern und das ein oder andere Lieblingslabel ausfindig machen. Als Liebhaber von allem was independent, fashion & artsy ist, wird das kinki magazine als Medienpartner natürlich vor Ort präsent sein, über Mode diskutieren und mit Tee auf bessere Zeiten anstossen, bis wir uns all die schmucken Kleidungsstücke auch leisten können! Margin London Trade Show Wann: Sonntag 2. & Montag 3. August 2009, 10-18 Uhr Wo: The Music Rooms, South Molton Lane, London W1 http://kinkimag.com/blog/margin-london/
