Today I had the great pleasure of meeting one of the most gorgeous woman I've ever seen: Diane Pernet, from A Shaded View Of Fashion.
For those who doesn't know who Diane Pernet is, I just would say that she's one of the most gorgeous fashion editors that Elle and VOGUE had in their history; as a respectable fashion filmaker who's been promoted new talents from her own fil festiva, the ASVOFF Festival.
This festival would come to Barcelona next January, and there will be 3 competitions: Official, Students and a Mobile Fashion Film Competition. Today was the announcement of the opening and the launch of the ASVOFF Barcelona website; and I went there with Matt, one of my friends (that I must say I met at Acampadabcn!).
With Mrs. Pernet was Liz Monfort, Valenti Farras and Alex Murray-Leslie, who is like the coordinator of all the festival.
during the presentation, they showed a short spot of the festival. I leave you the video here too, 'cause it's really nice!
Diane was really nice with us, and we talked about fashion, cinema and the future of arts for about 20 minutes! Seriously, one of the most gorgeous and interesting persons I've ever met.I hope and wish we could meet again and talk a little bit more!
By the way, The Brandery is almost here and I cannot wait for seeing all the new things they're offering in this edition! It's gonna be great!
Yesterday Smith Street was taken over by Bastille Day festivities: a day of music, petanque tournaments and iced Lillet sangria (yum!).
You could spot party goers by their white straw boaters (given out free to shade residents from the 80 plus temperatures).
The place to be was on the tree-shaded avenue beside Provence en Boite, where tables and bunting lined the streets and a three-piece jazz band had everyone dancing well into the night...
