Austrian Fashion Week 23.9-26.9 2004
Austria and fashion. Kind of like milk and mustard, a blend you might want to taste, but you are turned off by the idea of it. Austrians have a slight problem with the idea of trying new things or even being hedonistic. A country where it's capital city Vienna boosts 1,4 million people, living here has a high and a very relaxed standard. Most don't really care about high fashion, it is a well into shopping at H&M, your local clothing supply. Every main street boosts at least 3 branches (!!!) of H&M. Not enough, Karl Lagerfeld designs here for one of the H&M city centre branches. Lovely. As to the fashion week, there is a light. Young designers like Mel Merio or Petar Petrov are really turning this city upside down. Petar by far the most talented one
