Take a close look. This is Dodo still living in Paris, looking very Isabelle Huppert/ Charlotte Rampling. Effortless chic, a certain austere nonchalance. That’s Dodo’s style. Or is it typical Parisian style? Or both? I’ve met Dodo when she already lived in Paris, so I don’t know if Paris made her that way or if … Continue Reading

Imagine you see a women dressed all in black. Her hair is grey and short, a typical men’s cut, she is wearing heavy black rim glasses. You would probaly think: ‘Whoa, careful with this one.’ Black is the color of distance and mysteriousness, of mean fashion editors and satanists. It holds you at arm’s length … Continue Reading

Men have a limited fashion potential. They can’t wear a frilly dress or put flowers in their hair. Or heavy make-up to give them a more mysterious look (I am talking about the avarage fashion concious fellow here). Or chunky jewellery for maximum effect (unless they work in Las Vegas). But there is one thing … Continue Reading

You might have guessed it – it’s Octoberfest time again. And to put one thing straight: I am not paid by the Bavarian Tourism Association to be an ambassador for Bavarian culture. I am simply a huge fan of Bavarian costumes. So every year on the first sunday of Munich’s Octoberfest from around 9 a.m. … Continue Reading

Pants are genderless. More or less. Except of the very curvy ones, and maybe palazzo pants…or capri pants….anyway, in general, pants can be worn by men and women. At least for some time now. When women started wearing pants it was nothing short of a revolution, because defying conventions meant freedom. Freedom to spread your … Continue Reading

Pinstripes are tricky. There is a (literally) VERY thin line between prestigious and pretentious, between ritzy and glitzy. It’s all about the stripe: how wide is it and how white is it? Too wide = flashy, too white = cheap. And if it’s wide AND white – you might as well skip the shirt and … Continue Reading

When we come back from vacation we are – at least for a few days – in a state of transition. The twighlight zone between carefree walking into the sunset on a sandy beach and unpacking suitcases, doing laundry and getting back to work. To keep that ‘holiday feeling’ alive we dress as if we … Continue Reading

My models and I take a much needed summer break and we see you again in September! Enjoy the summer and don’t forget to look fabulous. (Special thanks to my dear Frank who took the pictures and made me look like a 70s muse on a spiritual journey to the inner energy.) (I also want … Continue Reading

What do you wear when it’s really, I mean REALLY hot outside? I am not talking about beachwear, I am talking about being dressed properly. Wearing too little can be inappropriate, wearing too much can be very uncomfortable when it’s scorching hot. My advice is: don’t go for tight and tiny, go for big and … Continue Reading

A tattoo is an artwork on permanent display. Some are only visible when you get undressed, some are for the public. ‘What if you don’t like it anymore?’ ‘Have you REALLY thought about it?’ ‘It won’t look that good when you are old!’ ‘You can’t reverse it!’ are the usual comments when somebody talks about … Continue Reading

The meaning of ‘sexiness’ is debatable. For a majority (especially men – no offence) it means revealing as much as possible. Either through very tight clothes that highlight certain gender specific features or by a minimal fabric use. A loose, boxy dress in shades of grey is certainly not considered the prototype of ‘sexy’. Admittedly, … Continue Reading

Have you ever had a ‘Fashion Moment’? A moment that changes the way you look at things, that leaves a lasting impression on your ‘style mind’? It can be a person that you meet, a film you are watching, a book you are reading. Bernd told me about his initial fashion moment. He was about … Continue Reading
