One of my favorite runaway is 'Style Theory'. Carrying out the Spring Summer 2019 collection, Paulina Katarina, Rani Hatta, and Day and Night gave a new experience that truly spoiled the guests' eyes who attended Jakarta Fashion Week 2019 Day-3. Paulina Katarina and Rani Hatta chose colors that were striking in their collections, and totally different for Day and Night which took basic colors like black, white, and gray.

Paulina Katarina

Carrying out the theme of "Santorini Romance", Paulina Katarini showcased beautiful dresses with light fabrics. Their cutting gives a freedom of movement for the wearer. The choice of colors is very beautiful, really illustrates the ambiance of Spring and Summer. This is an interesting collection for Indonesia women in the summer season next year.

Rani Hatta

Bring out their rangers: @fabellrt as Pink Ranger, @naranararu as Blue Ranger, @anastliee as Red Ranger, @xjfritzx as Yellow Ranger, and @rosydiadam as Green Ranger, Rani Hatta gives a fresh nuance to the guests. Their outer collection from hoodies to long coat are very cool. Like their mission, making an outfit more than just a cover for our bodies, but a point of view towards our life. Then the details of their clothes really reflect Rani Hatta characteristics, for example the Chuck Taylor's laces which describes equality and no boundaries.

Day and Night

(IG: @dayandnight.official)

Totally different from the previous runaways, Day and Night featured their typical collections with dominant black, white, and gray. Carrying out "I See You See Me" theme, inspired by kids wear details during 5-15th century, they combined it with mature modern details. They say that their collection is now much more technical compared to their previous collection. For example with 1 basic pattern, they can transform into two pieces of clothes with completely different styles. It is due to different sewing technique. Honestly, I myself was amazed by this Day and Night collection, their cutting is unique and unusual, giving the impression of today's independent women.

Well, if you are curious about their collection, I have compiled some videos and Instagram Stories into one video that you can watch by clicking this link: 

WATCH HERE

But beforehand I apologized if there is only one video of Rani Hatta when only all models come out. Because at that time I did IG Live for the Rani Hatta collection only, meanwhile IG Live video couldn't be saved. Huhu. I'm so regret it. I should just record it normally, then I submit it to IG TV rather than doing IG Live. I think by submitting to IG TV, everyone can watch repetedly.

Okay no problem ya, it can be a lesson for me for the future show. Hehe. So happy watching guys!

How dare you wear yellow as the center of point in your outfit?

Louis Jacket in Yellow by Tenue De Attire

About two months before Jakarta Fashion Week began, I found an online shop from ads on Instagram, @tenuedeattire. I opened their Instagram and I love their eye-catching feeds at my first sight. #Tsah

I thought it was a global/international brand because the model I saw in Instagram ads is a foreign model, which after I found out he was Hamzin Ruslan (IG: @hamzin__ruslan), one of model from Russia at Plaza Indonesia Men Fashion Week on last September. 

After I stalked more and it turned out Tenue De Attire to be a local brand, I became more interested in buying. You know if it is global brand and I have to buy from outside of Indonesia, the shipping fee will be quite expensive, maybe it could be same as the cloth price. Haha. 

I love their clothing collections and I like the way they present their products to be looked so exclusive.

One that is very eye-catching is this "Louis Jacket in Yellow". Waaa! Super cute. But at that time, I was still thinking whether to buy it or choose another color, until the end of one month before #JFW2019, I know that this Yellow Louis Jacket has made me falling in love. And I bough it! Special to be wore for Jakarta Fashion Week Day-1.

I also like their kind and professional service. Honestly I chose the wrong size. I previously ordered M size, but it was still too big. I would like to change with S size. Then I asked them if it could be exchanged or not, and they said "Yes". I was really relieved at that time. They also didn't charge the shipping fee that they had to bear when sending back the item to me. Wow, their service is the best. Love it! Not to mention I got a 10% discount on my first purchase on their official site, www.tenuedeattire.id. 

What about the quality?

Hey no play play! This Yellow Louis Jacket is tailored from cotton twill material. Actually it is like a denim, but in a soft version. For me, it is really comfortable to wear. It has two front pockets that are big enough to carry our everyday needs like phone, wallet, even phone charger! LOL. But ya, just consider if you bring a lot items in your pockets, it will make your breast bigger. Hahaha.

Squares Black Shirt by ID The Executive

For the top wear, I wore a shirt with a squares pattern from @id_theexecutive. One of the brands from Delami Group. This shirt can be easily found because the official store of The Executive is easily found in almost all big malls/shopping centers. I choose black so that the yellow jacket that I wear as my outwear can look more outstanding.

Black Pants

In order not to have too much colors, I wore black formal pants from, also, @id_theexecutive. This is the formal pants that I usually wear in the office. To make it look more casual, I fold the bottom of the pants twice to the inside. This will make your pants magically changed into cropped pants. This is also a trick to make you taller. LOL.

White Sneakers from Zara

As the closing of overall outfit, I chose my white sneakers from @Zara. This is my favorite sneakers. White sneakers with army accents on the soles. The combination of yellow and black will be more attractive when added white. An attractive color combination to used both during  at the day and at the night.

Bag and Glasses

For my accessories, I use this army green bag from Berrybenka Label. I like this bag because it can be used as a backpack or handbag. The size is quite big enough to bring all everyday needs like changing clothes, chargers, wallets, perfumes, and many others. But the size isn't look big. 

Then for my glasses, I bought online at Tokopedia. It's not a reading glasses, just fashion glasses. Hehehe.

So what do you think about my outfit guys? Do you also like or maybe ever wearing unusual colors n your outfit? Please share it in the comment box, who knows, maybe it can be an inspiration for me or other readers. Thank you!

The fashion industry continues to grow and shows significant development. The need of better style encourages creative fashion industry to continue developing new innovations. That is what Jakarta Fashion Week 2019 has used in their programs, Indonesia Fashion Forward and Fashionlink Showroom & Market.

Fashion may appear to be different between one and each other. Because fashion is about taste. Before the mid-19th century, almost all clothing was handmade for individuals. Then in the beginning of the 20th century, after sewing machine was more improved, the development of clothing industry had increasingly come to be mass-produced. And now, fashion industry has become a good business. There are many fashion designers with their own design style. The economic, lifestyle, and technology condition, greatly influence the development of fashion style differences.

With such diversity, Jakarta Fashion Week 2019 has a program to bridge the interaction between designers, industry players, and fashion consumers, both domestic and abroad. If you came to Jakarta Fashion Week or Fashionlink Showroom & Market, you may see guest from abroad. This opportunity was taken by #JFW2019 to introduce the amazing work of our local designers to global retail representatives. I, myself, am proud to see the works either that displayed at the Fashion Tent or exhibited at Fashionlink Showroom & Market. Suppose I have unlimited money, I have already bought them all. Hahaha.

Fashionlink Showroom & Market by JFW 2019 was held on the 8th floor of Senayan City Mall. No need entrance ticket, by only register at the front desk, you'll get the access to the strolling around this place. After registration, we would be welcomed by several beverages tenants, such as PT Gemilang Ardesy Indonesia, Toraja Coffee, and Gulu Gulu.

In the first time we enter the exhibition area, we then would be welcomed by Anne Avantie's clothing collection that automatically attracted us to visit her booth because her collection that so charming. We also can find other various fashion collections from local labels encompasses women's wear, men's wear, accessories, shoes, sandals, hijab, and make-up.

Talk Show with @Oxcel

Not only fashion exhibition, in Fashionlink Showroom & Market there was also talk show events with various speakers like fashion designers, beauty bloggers, influencers, model, and many more. One of the schedule that I attended was a talk show with model and fashion designer Oxcelira Paryana (IG: @oxcel) about her fashion work in the collaboration with Disney's The Nutcracker and The Four Realms. Oxcel is a cover girl model in 2007, she also played several films. And now she has her own label, @oxceloxcel (official site: www.oxceloxcel.com). Carrying out the concept of free expression with fresh idea, enigmatic, statement, and fun attire, Oxceloxcel presents her design in a unique way.

Let us see her some of Oxceloxcel's collection:

This time, Oxcel was invited to be a speaker because she would tell how she could have a collaboration with Disney and at the same time she also would tell her four pieces for Disney. So, Oxcel was contacted by Gadis Magazine to join the Disney's The Nutcracker project. Although Oxcel is a Disney lover, Oxcel has never watched the movie. The movie would be released in the theater on November. But after she knew the character in The Nutcracker movie which makes an independent woman as the main character, Oxcel surely couldn't reject this project. She then explored the information about this movie with Disney Indonesia.

For Oxcel, this is a new challenge. She who is accustomed to making ready-to-wear and street style clothes, must make a night gown. Oxcel created a pattern and cut the fabric by herself for this project.

Well, are you curious about this night gown made by Oxcel for Disney? Let's discuss briefly one by one:

Look 2: This gown is identical to the main character in the Nutcracker movie, Clara, who is identical in red.

Look 3: A black dress with a wing like a bat with a gold accent. This gown has the word design "Secret" on the front which is formed in an inverse-heart design. this inverse-heart means that we have to be confident because the perspective we have is maybe different with others. At the back there is a special gold lines taken from the Nutcracker story that there will be a golden thread on the character's birthday.

Look 4: This is inspired by Mother Ginger with a dominant color of golf and black. This is one of Oxcel's favorites because it is considered to be the most difficult work to make. But even si, due to long and difficult process, Oxcel became more and more in love with this dress.

For more details about Oxcel's work, you can see them directly. WOW, WHERE? Alright guys, Oxcel will participate the exhibition at Main Atrium of Pacific Place Mall starting on October 26th 2018 to November 18th 2018 to showcase her four pieces of Oxcel's work in collaboration with Disney's The Nutcracker and the Four Realms.

The second day at Plaza Indonesia Men Fashion Week 2018 was filled with fall-winter clothing collections from top brands such as Marks & Spencer, Canali, and Diesel. And of course, Marks & Spencers and Canali also showcases their formal clothing collections like suits. The photos above are some fall-winter collection from Canali.

If I remember the PIMFW 2018 performance on the second day, actually I was a bit disappointed. Not because of the clothes they showcased, but the shoes they use didn't seem to fit the LED catwalk. As we all knew that PIMFW this time chose Pedro as a shoes official partner. But unfortunately, on the second day of the show it seems like these male models didn't feel comfortable with the shoes they wore. It was obvious that the models had to walk carefully and even more, they seemed to walk in disjointed order to not slip. Yes! It looks like the shoes they wore were slippery if they rub against the LED floor. Even though shoes soles were made from rubber.

At first I thought that some of these models were walking strange because of their way of walking, hahaha. But it turns out that all models were walking in the same way, until there was a moment some of them refrained from slipping. Then I knew that the shoes were really slippery.

Actually I am also a Pedro shoe lover, because it has a good design. Some of my dress shoes, like derby shoes and oxford shoes are from Pedro. Seeing the incident, I remember that one of my oxford shoes was also very slippery, if the floor was a bit wet I could slip. And I really have to step like the model did. So I feel you guys! LOL.

But before continue to the runaway, I will first show you my OOTD for this PIMFW 2018. Hehe. So because formal wear will runaway on PIMFW Day-2, I also use a formal wear. By combining linen shirts from Uniqlo Indonesia and blazer suits from H&M, I feel like Oppa-Oppa Korea. Hahaha. There is a little trick for the pants, so actually this isn't a cropped pants, but I roll it in to make it shorter. Well, this can be a trick for you too. My purpose is just to be looked taller and my loafers can be more standout. My Loafer is still the same as what I used on the first day, is a local brand from Bandung, the brand is Toods Footwear. Then the clutch I used was from VIP Plaza Indonesia.

MARKS & SPENCER

Marks & Spencer (M&S) was established in 1884 by Michael Marks. Originally from England, now the retail stores have spread to 30 countries. In Indonesia, the M&S official store already exists in some big cities like Jakarta, Bali, Bandung, Bekasi, Tangerang, Medan, and Surabaya.

Opened with a raincoat collection showcase, M&S had made the PIMFW 2018 guests more curious about the other collections. Look at the collection of raincoats that are very adorable in the photo below.

Overall I like these M&S collections, especially the fall & winter coats that they showcased have a simple and elegant impression, with colors that tend to be calm like fall season.

Emerging younger than Marks & Spencer, Canali was first established in 1934 by Giacomo Canali and Giovanni Canali as a family business from Italy. The retail stores have spread throughout the world and is known as one of the luxury clothing brands.
