At this years show of the BA students at the Hetzendorf fashionschool together with the university of arts Linz - the japanese shoe brand ONITSUKA TIGER  initiated a contest for all students of the second year to design their personal ideas under the theme "craft of movement". 10 designs were selected by specialized jury to go from 2D to 3D and produce the first Prototyps. Winner of this years contest was Clarissa Fritzsche with her idea of "the gesha shoe". (quite contemporary if you ask me). All 10 Designs are showcased in a special exhibtion at the PAAR shoe boutique in Vienna on the 25th of June.

But again - the overall look was okay. Just nothing really new or neverdonebefore designers. no key looks. Some hat designer showcased 4 looks but only 2 hats? If they have one year to come up with 4 looks minimum i dont know why unfinished pieces are even allowed over runway?   #thingsidontget Beautiful Helena Severin @ Wienermodels in Jana Wieland Some Shoe designer showcases great shoes in the dark with only the models mobile-phone shining on the feet - or directly at the face of the mode...

A surprisingly nice Vernissage took place  yesterday at the "Postsparkasse" in Vienna. Graduates of the Hetzendorf Bachelor class (soon to close down! sign the petition here ) and the University of arts in Linz showed their final collections. Sadly i came a bit late but there was no introduction of any kind so i din't miss anthing important.
