Runway Report – F FOR FASHION 2015: THE WEDDING fashionshow

11/10/2015 | 1 Reactie

Welcome to my first event report. This report is about a fashion show I have been a part of, ‘The Wedding’

F for Fashion is a yearly fashion show in Den Bosch, a quite big city in the Netherlands (also the city where I live) Created by Yvette (Vughts) and Sjoerd van Kampen.
The meaning of this show is to let (sometimes) insecure girls, girls with the dream of being a model, girls that have a certain special appearance/look and/or girls that have the potential of becoming a model but just don’t have the right height, or the right size according to the fashion industry.

Welkom bij mijn eerste event report. Dit report gaat over een mode show waar ik in mee heb gelopen, ‘The Wedding’

F for Fashion is een jaarlijke modeshow in Den Bosch, de stad waar ik leef. Opgericht door Yvette (Vughts) en Sjoerd van Kampen. De boodschap van deze show is om (bijvoorbeeld) onzekere meisjes, meisjes met de droom om model te worden, meisjes met een specifieke uiterlijk/uitstraling, en/of het potentieel hebben om model te worden maar helaas niet de juiste lengte of maat volgens de mode(llen)wereld hebben



The show was divided into three parts, two bridal fashion shows and a hair show to celebrate the 80 years of ‘De Gruyter’ hair couture. This report will show you the highlights of the bridal fashion part of the show of the designers ‘La Clement’ (Which I was the show opening model for), ‘Le Michelle’ and a few looks of the hair show.
De show was ingedeeld in 3 delen, twee bruidsmode shows en een haar show om het 80 jarige betaan van ‘De Gruyter’ hair couture. Dit artikel gaat je de highlights van de bruidsmode show laten zien van ontwerpster ‘La Clement’ (Waar de show mee begon, en ik als model als eerste voor liep) ‘Le Michelle’ en een aantal looks van de haar show.

De Gruyter

The third show was the show of De Gruyter.
This show was differently compared to the first two shows because this one is more
focussed on the haircuts of the girls, as an example, the hair of some of the girls got done live
on stage. They also did the hair of the models of the show of Le Michelle and La Clement.
This show is because of the 80th celebration of de Gruyter,
and shows a lot of different fashion/hair styles from the 20’s to 2015 and even the future. Even though I am more focussed on the dresses here, I will show some of the dresses.
This dresses are not designed by de Gruyter, only the haircuts are.
The hairstyles are a variety of vintage and futuristic styles.

De derde show was de show van De Gruyter. Deze show was compleet anders vergeleken met de eerste twee shows omdat in deze show de kapsels van de modellen centraal staan. Bijvoorbeeld: Van sommige dames werd het haar live gedaan op de catwalk. Overigens heeft De Gruyter ook het haar verzorgt van de modellen van La Clement en Le Michelle. Dit onderdeel van de show is wegens de 80 jarige viering van de Gruyter, en toont verschillende kleding/haarstylen vanaf de jaren 20 tot 2015 en zelfs de toekomst. Zelf is in deze post de jurk centraal en ga ik wat van de jurken van de show tonen. De jurken zijn niet door De Gruyter ontworpen, alleen de kapsels. Het is een variatie van vintage en futuristische stylen.

Futuristic de Gruyter FFF15
A Futuristic white dress and a white kimono with big blue hair, which drew my attention alot because it’s something I always used as a haircolour for the characters of the stories I wrote when I was younger.

Een futuristische witte jurk en een witte kimono met groot blauw haar, wat mijn aandacht trok omdat het iets is dat ik als kind also als haarkleur gebruikte voor de personages van de verhalen die ik schreef. Erg leuk iets te zien dat dat dat me er aan herinnert! 

The rest of the show showed alot of haircuts and styles from a variety of decades and futuristic styles.
Which made the show have a complete switch because the show went from wedding dresses to multicoloured, totally differently themed outfits.

De rest van de show toonde een variatie aan kapsels en stylen van verschillende deccenia en futuristische stylen, wat de show een complete switch gaf omdat het begin met trouwjurken, en eindigde met een variatie aan outfits met verschillende stylen en kleuren.

Special story 🌷🇳🇱 My great grandfather who was a fighter in the resistance (Het Verzet) 🕊️

May 4th and 5th in the Netherlands. In the Netherlands, May 4th is Remembrance Day, when we pause to honor all Dutch victims of war and the freeing of the country. At 8:00 PM, we observe two minutes of silence in memory of those who lost their lives in World War II and in subsequent conflicts and peacekeeping missions. On May 5th, we celebrate Liberation Day, marking the end of the German occupation in 1945. It’s a time for gratitude, reflection, and appreciation of our freedom. To keep remembering how important this day in history is and how freedom is a human right.

For me, this time holds a deeper, personal meaning. My great-grandfather was a prominent resistance fighter in Den Bosch, whose actions had an impact far beyond the city — he fought for all of the Netherlands. His stories live on in our family, passed down through generations. Among them are letters received at home from Prince Bernhard, acknowledging his dedication and service to our country.

From a young age, my father told me a lot of stories about his heroic actions for the country. 

His courage and love for freedom are a powerful reminder of why we continue to remember — and celebrate.

A feeling of justice is literally in our DNA.

My first vlog 🤍 24 hours in Tulum in just 90 seconds 🌴
This was my favorite day during last weeks trip. Tulum is my favorite place in the world and it was time for me to create a vlog about it instead of just stories. Let me know in the comments if you would like it to see more like this!

Tulum – a travel dream for many. I spent five wonderful nights here at @babel.tulum, waking up relaxed every morning in my own beautiful apartment. This stunning hotel is the perfect place to unwind, featuring a luxurious hot tub and steam room. Without a doubt, it’s one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever stayed at. The aesthetics are absolutely amazing. Apart of that - I really loved the amazing people working there 🤍

Highly recommend this place for your next getaway!

(Swipe) 🍃 My hair was a paid actor 🍃 - Cenotes, one of the Mexican wonders in Yucatan. Visiting Cenote Atik for the second time. This Cenote is a beautiful one to visit. Which I highly recommend to you for your Tulum list. The pictures you can take here are gorgeous and you can even access the museum if you want. Keep in mind that the price has almost doubled (!) over the past two years and the cenote is partially man made. Apart of that - it definitely is worth a visit, especially if it’s your first visit to Tulum. Next to Cenote Atik, there are thousands of them to choose from, which is a must do for your Mexico travel itinerary 🇲🇽
