Russian Seduction - my visit to hot new label Izmaylova

OMG - I'm standing in Izmaylova's showroom. Excited. Hit by an adrenalin rush triggered by Swarovski crystals, fine leather and A LOT of feathers. My photographer is waiting, I'm not a sample size and I just found out most dresses are between size 6 and 8.

Hallelujah.

Calm down I tell myself, ignore the 50 degrees in the studio, breathe in and pray one of them will fit.

Yessssssss, I manage to get in 3 of my favourite 40 looks.

The fabric feels amazing. The crystals sit powerful like a warrior shield on my shoulders while the silk feels very gentle and feminine.  Not sure if I want to dance or fight. For now I just want to look beautiful.

I can't get enough of those feathers.

The little black dress as Izmaylova interprets it for the night...


and as a sophisticated day dress


I also had a chance to sneak a peak at the SS12 collection with flowy dresses like this.

And the feathers have a come back in white



I absolutely love these dresses. They will wake up your inner Amazon to make you win - hearts, style trophies and admiring looks.

What more to want.

  1. Ich finde, die sollen Dich gleich als Model engagieren. Sieht richtig gut aus und ist Dein/mein/unser Stil.
    P.S. Schau auch mal bei Aidan Mattox und Ali Ro vorbei, das habe ich Dir am Sonntag vergessen, zu sagen.
    xoxo, Dein Cousinchen

  2. Geez, I just noticed that your blog is actually in English ;).
    Hence - once again - you look fab. I think they should actually book you to present their collection.
