I know it’s late, but finally here are some impressions of a small choosen group of fashion designers which are an inspiration for us.

First of all we have to say a big wow to the organizers and hosts of the event.
For the eighth time Cloed Priscilla Baumgartner and Jasmin Ladenhaufen put a lot of sweat and time into the show.

Here you can see exhibition architecture, a two-floor walk-in show palace with stages.
It has been conceived by Andi Lackner and the crew of perfect props and is simply amazing.

We thought the km/a collection was very extraordinary, but still wearable.
It is a nice mixture of punk and sailor and surely a lot of work.

Birgit Rampula from Amateur La Boutique joined the Modepalast for the third time
and said that it was simply great to be there.
You will be able to read a bit more about her soon.

We especially liked the idea of Junikind´s multi-purposed clothes.
As you can see there are several ways to wear this dress/skirt/top.
The fabrics are awesome, using restrained and pretty floral patterns.

And oh yeah, a Yellow Submarine skirt. The perfect wedding dress, I guess
Many more of these crazy clothes can be found at Piratin.

All in all one can see that there is a lot of organisation and work at the Modepalast.

Even though it was said that people should not recognize the difference between green and normal labels, we would have liked to see some kind of mark.
Thinking green is a better way for the future and it should be visible.
The thought of “green is different in a weird way” will not vanish through hiding it.
Still one has to say that focusing on green labels inside of the fashion territory is not a common thing and therefor good to do.

As announced we checked out the comic market at Längenfeldgasse last sunday.
This kind of market takes place about three to four times a year and is highly frequented.
It was our first time to have a look however and it was astonishing how organized everything seemed.

The market took place in a school building. “Maybe not the best atmosphere for a occassion like this,” I thought. Everything around was brown and had a touch of the 70´s, bringing the feeling of a flea market with it.
At the entrance we were handed some goody bags. While I was looking inside my bag, I was almost trampled down by some Storm Troopers.
Yes, Storm Troopers. Followed by an alien guy (who surely has a name too) and Luke Skywalker who had a cup of coffee with him.

Now this brought a total different attitude to the whole thing. Suddenly this was no boring school anymore, rather than a mysterious headquarter of evil and good forces, all lining up to show and sell their toys. I smiled at the thought of one of these Storm Troopers sitting in his living room, all dressed in uniform and playing with his Imperial Star Destroyer and making sounds like “zoom bzzzzz bzzzz bzzz”.

What immideately took my whole attention was the merchandise stand. This is a brain-dead situation to me.
Oh, a Totoro figure. It´s mine. End of story. ;;^_^;;

Now if you have been collecting ANY kind of comic for the last 30 years or so and you just happen to miss this one particular piece in german, english, italian or elvish, then this is the place for you. The assortment is overwhelming, the number of likeable nerds with good information very high.
