Dear iDEALS, one day before leaving the Athens' chaos behind me, my friend/photographer John Mitropoulos informed me that he was commissioned to shoot a story that would feature some bodies to kill for. My isolation on the island of Syros had to be interrupted cause I couldn't wait to see what photos my friend had sent to me. Here are the reasons I love my friend so much.

Reason One

Reason Two

Reason Three

Reason Four

Reason Five

Dear iDEALS, while dreaming on how we are going to spend our Summer days on the islands, I realized that it's been a while since the last time I photographed Maria's work. On our central table, her new collection of rings was "calling" for attention..

Dear iDEALS, during a non scheduled meeting down in the center of Athens, I met The Callas, who are known for their music. Yesterday I was told that they also design clothes and some sample photos where shown to me. I asked whether they could supply me with their lookbook. For now here is a portrait I shot on our way out.

Dear iDEALS, I decided to post some images taken at the Paris Couture shows.

Dior was predicted, no? I am never happy with the soundtrack of the show. It's so wrong!!

Chanel's second half was to die for.

Gaultier's show took me on a trip, when I first started loving him , back in the 1990's.
Remember when Linda came out on the catwalk holding a hair dryer...?

Thanks to "OhMyGa Jackie" for sending me the images.

Dear iDEALS, I know for a fact that the most creative designers are those based in London. It seems that the city's nightlife pushes young creators to break any limits for the sake of impression. This quality for me is the greatest ingredient -motivation to become immortal and have all the doors open for the coming future. Everytime I am in London, fashion becomes more interesting than the previews time; you can see it in the tube, on the street and definetely if you stand outside a club that's helding a fashion soiree. Today I am presenting the label " LONDON IS BURNING". Last night my Bulgarian friend Krasi sent me a email and L.I.B lookbook was attached.
