September 2011 Memories

This month was jam packed with fashion shows in New York, London, Milan and Paris but we still managed to bring you some cool original contents in this blog! First off, we continued our 12 Months of [Pop Up] Flavors by featuring some of the master graduates from Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp and they were Jantine van Peski, Leonneke Derksen and Karolina Piech. Since Ann Demeulemeester and Dries Van Noten both graduated from this school, in this month, we featured some of their F/W collections in this blog and we hope you enjoyed them.

Aside from that, we also featured a very talented illustrator named Dan Hillier and you should definitely check it out if you haven't done so.

Sadly, because for some unforeseen circumstances, we have to cancel the I Scream Awards 2011 but be sure to check back next year as we will continue the event. We hope to see your votes!

We have continued to discover some amazing talents and featured them on Swide. This month, we have the pleasure to interview illustrators Bree Leman, Gisela Balestrini, Laura Laine.

We are brewing more cool entries in October so be sure to check back our blog from time to time for the latest cool fashion/art finds!
