Following some requests, this post is dedicated to everything «mini». Zurich weather is so beautiful at the moment, that we can finally sport the mini skirts again. For chilly evenings, sport them with a cropped denim jacket that adds a bit of an edge to every outfit.
My look: Cropped denim hooded jacket
by Alaïa, check-pattern knitted crop top, and matching buttoned gingham knitted mini skirt, both by Balmain, LV Link square sunglasses by Louis Vuitton, Aevitas pointy stud leather platform pumps
by Versace, small logo bag in burgundy (S/S 2023,Look 44), and ring, both by CHANEL, and gold-tone, enamel and faux pearl clip earrings, by Saint Laurent.

Inspired by «The True Cost» documentary that shows the disgusting business practices of multi-billion dollar fast fashion brands that pinch factory’s so tight that they can keep up with the pressure to make money, I wore this tongue-in-cheek look to the Moschino show this spring. The pieces are from previous collections by Jeremy Scott, who is a genius when it comes to fashion with humor. The dollar signs on my dress and jacket, the fake fur stole and the cigarette box bag with the slogan «Fashion kills» are in my opinion a great match together.
I have always promoted to invest in pieces of good quality and to keep them for many years to come instead of buying fast fashion for one season.
My look: Double-breasted embellished crepe blazer
, embellished crepe mini dress, fake fur stole, black head piece with oversized bow, and cigarette-inspired leather bag, all by Moschino, pearl necklace by CHANEL, and Medusa Aevitas embellished satin platform pumps by Versace.

But(t) there is always another side to the story … :-).
I love the collaboration between Jean Paul Gaultier and KNWLS, the south London based brand designed by Charlotte Knowles and Alexandre Arsenault. The epic pieces fuse the disruptive femininity and fierceness of the UK-based label with the punk rebellion, grit and glamour of the famous French couture fashion house.
My look: Shearling-trimmed leather vest, printed mesh turtleneck top, and printed mesh flared pants, all by Jean Paul Gaultier x KNWLS, Aevitas leather platform ankle boots by Versace, elephant mini crystal-embellished suede shoulder bag by Loewe, gold aviator sunglasses by Chloé, JUSTE UN CLOU bracelet in rose gold with diamonds, LOVE bracelet SM in white gold, LOVE bracelet SM in yellow gold with 10 diamonds, LOVE bracelet in rose gold with 4 diamonds, and CLASH DE CARTIER bracelet SM in rose gold, all by Cartier, and Coco Crush bracelet in yellow gold by CHANEL Fine Jewelry.

Ballet flats are in right now and here are some that you definitely should consider if you want to join the trend. Spotted on the Versace S/S 2024 sorbet-colored runway, this ballerina flat is one of the must-haves for the new season. Called the «Gianni Ribbon», this new line of ballerina flats is accented by an archival «nastro Gianni» satin ribbon bow. Which color to choose? Definitely silver! So chic!

Help! «Everybody’s talking about inflation,» Jeremy Scott said backstage to Vogue when he presented his S/S 2023 Moschino collection. «The cost of everything’s going up: housing, food, life. So I took inflation into the collection.» So are you ready for some inflatable fun fashion to take a dip in the newest trend?! Imbuing joy in the vein of lifesavers and inflatable accessories, this outfit was my favorite to wear on board of Christina O.
If you ever feel like you’re drowning, hold on to fashion! That’s my advice!
My look: Life vest cropped jacket, stripe-detail high-waisted skirt, lifesaver hat, 105mm pointed-toe pumps, inflatable heart-charm earrings, all by Moschino, logo sunglasses, and J12 Mademoiselle La Pausa watch, both by CHANEL, tattoo tights by Calzedonia, and black bustier top by Versace.

This week, Donatella Versace presented her butterfly-filled Pre-Fall 2023 collection in Cannes, a collaboration with the pop star Dua Lipa titled «La Vacanza.» First used in Gianni Versace’s S/S 1995 runway collection, the butterfly is a motif which the pop star has worn throughout the years; it also seems to hold a special significance.
Must-have of the collection: Butterfly printed silk-twill shirt
«I love the summer and for me this collection celebrates the very best of that time of year. This is the perfect summer collection—from lying by the pool in a fun printed bikini, to dressing-up to dance on hot summer evenings in the perfect evening dress—these clothes immediately make me think of my holidays and being in the sun. Dua loves Fashion, I love Music—we are the perfect duo! We felt like we were on vacation and that is exactly the spirit we want people to feel when they wear our clothes.» –Donatella Versace
It is Versace’s first see-now-buy-now fashion show on the French Riviera. The fashion show reflects an intimate Salon-style collection presentation, with Iván De Pineda as host to guests sat in the gardens of a French Riviera villa.
The collection is Donatella and Dua’s shared vision of an absolute modern elegance for «La Vacanza,» the Italian for «vacation,» and encompasses the full Versace lifestyle; from perfectly cut tailoring and evening gowns, to bikini and terry cotton beachwear. It is also typical Barbiecore. Think pink power suits, the Barbie bouffant hairdos, and the shiny metallic leathers and crystal embellishments.
La Vacanza is what your summer dreams are made of and you can shop it now HERE!
