Josefin Strid

My former student, Josefin Strid, a few days ago showed her collection for fall 2012 at the Stockholm Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. More somber than the previous collection but it is a fall collection we are talking about. The references from female clothing are still there and this time she also used Greta Garbo styled hats on the boys. A courages effort to change the dress of men which I admire but I wouldn't like to wear the clothes.

Interview with Josefin Strid

Photo from Dorian Magazine

Today I did an interview with my former student, Josefin Strid, and it is supposed to end up in Mods Magazine. Josefin is a shooting star on the fashion sky and this autumn she takes her first steps on to the international market. I believe she will do well. The picture above from Dorian Magazine features one of her t-shirts. Dorian loves Josefin's creations but they could have matched it with something better than camouflage pants. I hate camouflage.

The funny thing is that I have seen this particular type of t-shirt on Josefin's mother and it looks better on her than on this male model.

Emma Bredell

One of my former students, Josefin Strid, is making bit of a splash on the fashion scene. She has always been very determined and I am sure she will go far. She had her eyes set on Central St. Martins in London but success can come anyway which is quite evident here.

She is very experimental and has a fascinating creativity. The men's clothes above is inspired by Pride and Prejudice. A bold statement to such feminine inspired clothes on men. They are a bit too floral for my taste and truth to be told I wouldn't like to be caught dead in them. On the other hand I'm sure she will do much coveted pieces in the future and that she will be represented in my wardrobe.

You can also see a beautiful black dress, modeled by another of my former students Emma Bredell. The last picture is from Emma's prom where she wore a dress designed by Josefin. I was there as a host of the event.

Keep your eyes open for Josefin Strid (and for Emma Bredell as well). Gee, I rhymed.
