Event | Pink Fashion Show is [Back]Stage

The much awaited Pink Fashion Show organized by Pink Magazine, took place last Tuesday night at the majestic 18th Century Manoel Theatre in the heart of our capital city. Despite the rain, guests still flocked to the idyllic venue to witness yet another fantastic showcase of the season's hottest trends in beautiful surroundings.

The night kicked off with a pre-party where guests were served Kinnie Kiss cocktails (Prosecco and Kinnie - Malta's own soft drink). Following the obligatory chats to catch up and share our two cents about the expectations for the night, me and some fellow bloggers took our place at the front of the runway to make sure not to miss any detail from the night's look.

The show was yet another perfectly executed do - the models walked down the runway under the gazes of a totally wowed audience sitting in the theatre boxes and even those standing around the catwalk stage, accompanied by the rich repertoire of baroque music works of art from the Valletta International Baroque Ensemble. This is one of the main reasons why I love the Pink Fashion Show, for it always manages to seamlessly combine our heritage with current fashion trends in a way that is very difficult to surpass. 

Since party season is on our doorstep, all brands showcased their best party collections - rich velvets, bold prints and colours, opulent metallics, leather and sophisticated outerwear have set the scene for a truly fashion-forward outlook on the most glamorous time of year. My absolute favourite was of course Rebelli, but all of the other 6 brands have very interesting collections - here are the pictures (captured by Mark Soler) to prove the splendour of them all!

OOTD | What I Wore to the Charles & Ron Fashion Show

Yesterday, I was very excited because I was going to attend my first ever fashion show and of course, it had to be Charles & Ron! This year is also my first time attending the Mercedes-Benz Malta Fashion Week and this was the one I didn't want to miss for anything in the world - quite frankly, the Charles & Ron show in Malta is like the Chanel show in Paris!

 

I spent quite some time deliberating on what to wear and I finally settled on the outfit I was supposed to wear on Easter Sunday but I never got the chance to.
