ERKI Moeshow 2010

On Saturday I attended ERKI moeshow, fashion show I've been talking about all the time. I ended up being a model for Kristi Pedanik collection "Aafrika valge" (African White). I'm trying to show you bit of life at backstage, ... but I wish I had taken more photos of other collections and people.

So for me the day started at 10am with getting my hair done. I had a huge bun made of fake hair on top of my head. It took lot of time to get all those hair pins and all that hairspray out of my hair. Okay, it wasn't that bad but I can't imagine going through this regularly like real models do.


And for make-up we were having light eyebrows and orange lips.



On our feet and arms we had white tribal paintings.


It was a silent show, so all the sound was coming from headphones. Both - audience and models were wearing headphones. Well, my headphones dropped out during walking on runway - it was really weird to walk in total quietness and I didn't get a right feeling without the music
.



Little bit about Kristi's collection African White. Everything isn't black, Africa is white. As name says everything was white but with few orange accents. As jewelry we wore metres of white cables, wires and even metal forks.

Check these pieces from Heli Haav's and Ingrid Paat's collection "Groovy Pool". All beads are handsewn, crazy!



and shoes, shoes, shoes and more shoes!



I was bit sad I couldn't see the show but you can't have many good things at once, right? Anyways I'm happy that this kind of shows take place in Estonia;)

bridesmaides

What do I do when I'm bored and have loads of shredded fabric lying around at home? I do weird photo shoots, like today.
For the white "veil" I used some leftovers of white shredded t-shirts and my mesh shirt was great for the black veil. Some more layers and little bit lace plus the spiked headbands (available here)

Wow, weather has been really nice during this week and I'm trying to keep away from a computer as much as possible. Today I even went to a beach for a picnic;)

Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that I'm about to update my etsy store.. yeah finally! So stay tuned for ear cuffs and lot more.. The spiked headband is already available, I know it's a DIY project not my own design but maybe some of you weren't able to make one by yourself so here's your chance to get it.

Seems like summer has arrived to Estonia. Anyways I found this nice hat and crazy round-shaped sunglasses from a thrift store on Friday. Sounds perfect to protect yourself from the sun.

sneak peak

Wow, what a tiring but great day today! Spent my whole day in Tallinn because I had a photoshoot with Oliver Moosus. My task was to style that shoot, basically I just used outfits from my MoeP.A.R.K collection but I also added some other clothes. The whole thing was military/warrior/army inspired of course and the location was perfect for that! I'll show you the real photos as soon as can, can't wait to see the result! Here's something from behind the scenes:

it was even more dangerous as it looks
