There’s something magical about the first warm days of the year — feeling the sun on your skin, seeing nature bloom, and simply enjoying the beauty around us. Switzerland has been especially stunning lately, and I’m thankful for every moment here before heading back to Istanbul for work. Even after challenging times, spring reminds us that new beginnings are always possible.

Neon green – loud, unapologetic, and totally on trend.
Wearing bold colors isn’t out of the ordinary for me, and this neon green look was made for the spotlight. It’s a shade that’s been dominating the runways and street style lately – energetic, confident, and impossible to ignore. Exactly the vibe I wanted to bring to the jury panel.

Georgian designer Demna is leaving Balenciaga after a decade to become Gucci’s new Artistic Director, starting early July 2025.
During a surprise press conference at the Parisian headquarters of parent company Kering, the newly instated Gucci CEO Stefano Cantino said: «I have always admired Demna’s creative approach, that is both unique and powerful. His ability to honor the iconic legacy of a brand while embracing a modern sensibility is extraordinary. With Gucci’s strengthened foundations as a springboard, Demna will lead the House towards renewed fashion authority and enduring cultural relevance.»
At the Balenciaga F/W 24 show in Paris wearing Demna’s designs head to toe.
Both Gucci and Balenciaga, where Demna has been creative director for nearly 10 years, are owned by Kering. At Balenciaga, Demna has redefined modern luxury, earning global recognition and cementing his authority on the industry.
Founded in Florence in 1921, Gucci is renowned for eclectic and contemporary creations that represent the pinnacle of Italian craftsmanship and are unsurpassed in quality, attention to detail and imaginative design.
Demna said: «I am truly excited to join the Gucci family. It is an honor to contribute to a House that I deeply respect and have long admired. I look forward to writing together with Stefano and the whole team a new chapter of Gucci’s amazing story.»
Gucci hasn’t set a date for Demna’s debut show, but it isn’t expected to come before September. That means Gucci’s next big moment on the fashion calendar — a May 15th cruise show in Florence, the brand’s birthplace — will be another studio-designed affair.

Last week’s gala episode of MY STYLE ROCKS was all about the 90s. A decade that I lived and that was all about bold style, laid-back vibes, and iconic trends that still influence fashion today! From grunge flannels, fuzzy hats and ripped jeans to hip-hop baggy fits and sleek minimalist slip dresses, the decade was a perfect mix of cool and carefree. Think platform shoes, Doc Martens, chokers, crop tops, checked mini skirts and tracksuits—whether inspired by Clueless, Friends, or your favorite boy band, 90s fashion was effortlessly fun and full of personality!
As you know, I have been collecting fashion for more than 30 years. For this episode I dived into my closet and looked for pieces that I actually wore in the 90s. I had designed the bag along with the matching T-shirts during my time at Sonia Rykiel in Paris. Originally created for the people backstage at the S/S 1999 show, Sonia decided to produce them for the actual collection as she liked them a lot.
My look: Appliquéd printed cotton-jersey sweatshirt by Dolce & Gabbana, neon pink cropped top (S/S 1995), and black hot pants (S/S 2022), both by CHANEL, checked mini skirt (S/S 1998) by D&G, printed wool bag (S/S 1999) by Sonia Rykiel, triangle-logo scrunchie, crystal scrunchie, and fuzzy hat in lilac, all by Prada, leather, faux pearl and crystal choker by Alessandra Rich, 90’s vintage sunglasses by Gucci, creoles by Dior, black tights with crystals by Calzedonia, and Strike leather ankle boots by Balenciaga.

Do not forget … it’s fashion and it’s for my museum. I have never had so many heads turning around than the day I walked through the streets of London in these shoes. I love pieces that are avantgarde, unexpected and different. Therefore I had to get Alexander McQueen‘s hoof boots and Balenciaga‘s super cool denim top, which you can easily restyle with a pair of jeans. Both are from the F/W 2024 collections, to shop them, click on the highlighted product description below.
My look: Knitted black cardigan, matching scarf, and hat, all by Stella McCartney, denim pants top (F/W 2024 Look 44) by Balenciaga, VLogo Moon embellished woven shoulder bag by Valentino, hoof booties (F/W 2024 Look 16) by Alexander McQueen, and diamond rose pendant necklace by Piaget.
