Fashion show Stanka Zovko/ Modna revija Stanke Zovko

Hello readers. Today I'm taking you to a fashion show by local designer Stanka Zovko.  Taking these photographs was so much fun.  I took some interesting photographs back stage as well. It was so interesting watching models prepare for this show. The girls were really professional and nice to be around. They enjoyed posing and it was fun capturing 'behind the scene' photograph. It was a great show. The creations were beautiful. The hair and make up team did a fantastic job as well.  Scroll down to see more. 











This fashion show took place during a fundraising event for a hospital  in Mostar. The models and the designer volunteered their time for this fundraising dinner.  All photos by me.

    Hello Ivana,

    what the fu...??? Just 12 comments??? This great post deserves a lot more!!!

    You did such an amazing job to shot all of these pics. Specially i like the "behind the scene"-pics - with all that make up lay off - this is very interessting stuff.

    Ok, some of these outfit are a little bit on the "fantastic"-side - not really the right thing to wear it on the streets. But these models looks just stunning in some of this clothings.

    On this pic http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-yMqStFo2dDM/UnFWurkPuiI/AAAAAAAAMqw/4VpVQVeN390/s1600/101.jpg i love the make up that the girls had lay off. And i see a lot´s of leggings on the left. Gosh, the second girl on the right wearing the leggings and heeled sandals from one of your last posts - is this the girl?

    This http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-i6UK-Q26954/UnFUgffhHsI/AAAAAAAAMp0/3UHBeha-EQc/s1600/67.jpg is also a really cool pic - with all these models, beautiful!!!

    This http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KTf2NjoKxdA/UnFWskFY4wI/AAAAAAAAMqk/9HHMtfccqKo/s1600/100.jpg is a wonderful piece of a leggings - like the transparent look - very unique!!! I would wear this kind of a leggings with a very shiny tights under - i think that would looks really cool.

    On this Pic http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZBlOZYQkC_M/UnFQ1ftxmUI/AAAAAAAAMpQ/hjbwT9AG6tw/s1600/53.jpg i see some of the greatest outfits! All these dresses are very my taste - the leggings as well.

    I love it, that you was a part of this great fashion show. I wished i could see you on the catwalk - dressed up in the beautiful clothings on this planet!!!

    Bye.

    Jennifer

      the number of comment usually depends on the number of blogs one visits....most people just comment if you comment on their blog, so if you don't have time to do that, it can happen that you invest a lot of time in a blog post and almost nobody reads it....but that is blogging. It works that way. We're not like fashion magazines that have regular readers....I don't really mind because I like reading other blogs, I don't do it just to get comments on my blog.

      Thank you for your comment! I really like those sheer leggings too. I think the designer probably made them herself because they match the outfit perfectly. I also really liked all the creations.

      The backstage photographs were fun! Besides the models, on those two photographs below you can also see the make up artists and the model instructor who instructed the other models how to walk.

      ...in this photo, the two persons who are sitting are the designer, her sister and make up artist. Those who are standing are all models besides the two blonds, one with short blond hair (wearing a short dress and boots with high heels) and the other blonde.... the two of them are hairstylist.

      The girl standing in the middle is a retired model who now works as an instructor for models. She was there to show girls how to walk.

      your so right - blogging is not ever easy. you (i) think you had a great post and then came just a few comments - it´s always a shame.

      "...in this photo, the two persons who are sitting are the designer, her sister and make up artist." - the designer did a really good job - this are amazing outfits. If i was on that fashion show, i would ask the designer to buy the fourth dress from the left and the leggings on the far right - from this pic: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZBlOZYQkC_M/UnFQ1ftxmUI/AAAAAAAAMpQ/hjbwT9AG6tw/s1600/53.jpg

      Do you know, what the price from such a dress and leggings is?

      Thanx for your words!!!

      Thank you Jennifer. I don't know about the prices because this show was some time ago so I imagine they were sold already. You can look for her works online and on social media, I'm sure there are prices on her sites.

All your comments mean a lot to me, even the criticism. Naravno da mi puno znači što ste uzeli vrijeme da nešto napišete, pa makar to bila i kritika. Per me le vostre parole sono sempre preziose anche quando si tratta di critiche.

THE ISLAND OF THE MISSING TREES BY ELIF SHAFAK (BOOK REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION)

Image
Today I shall review The Island of Missing Trees by Elif Shafak. I was actually gifted this book. What a wonderful present it proved to be! Published in 2021, this postmodern  novel  follows two  story lines and uses framed narration.  The Island of Missing Trees  tells the life story of a Greek Turkish couple and their adolescent daughter.  This novel examines and explores a number of topics such as identity, migration, immigrant life, war trauma, memory, love and family. It's an ambitious novel that examines serious topics with due respect and sensitivity . I read it months ago, but I remember it vividly. Honestly, I cried a lot while reading this novel. It really moved me greatly. In fact, that is probably why it took me this long to finish this book review. I needed to emotionally process the story.   The Island of Missing Trees is   set in London and Cyprus. The narration isn't chronological .  The story jumps back and forth, following two main timelines, one set in moder

SUPPORTING LOCAL DESIGNERS IN MOSTAR: TRANSITIONAL AUTUMN STYLING WITH OZZ BRAND

Image
Hello readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, I'll share two transitional outfits featuring a lilac skirt from fashion designer Stanka Zovko. If you're a regular reader of this blog, you've probably seen this skirt before. Afterall, I'm really good at shopping my closet. I've been wearing this lilac skirt a lot in the past few months. It's also a great piece for transitional weather because it can be easily layered, or dressed up and down.  Supporting local designers and artisans is certainly something that pays off in the long run. If you want to own unique pieces and at the same time, support your local community, you should really explore shopping local, or commissioning local artisans and designers.  Sustainability in fashion is a big topic nowadays! However, sometimes I feel like people make it more complicated than it really is. We should go back to our origins. Explore vintage, second hand and local shopping. Learn how to stay away from the big shoppin

FORGIVENESS DAY BY URSULA K. LE GUIN (BOOK REVIEW AND AN AUTUMN STYLING)

Image
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! How are you today? I'm back with another Ursula K. Le Guin book review. In this post, I'll review " Forgiveness Day" , a science fiction novella that is a part of the Hainish Circle. Published in 1995, "Forgiveness Day " won multiple awards. This novella is often published together with her other novellas from the Hainish Circle, and it can be find in various editions of Four Ways to Forgiveness and Five Ways to Forgiveness.   Thematically, this novella is a part of five stories featuring two Hainish planets, but it can definitely be read on its own. I think it functions well as a stand alone novella. I listened to it in audio form, and I didn't have any problems following the story.  The world building is simple and effective. The author fills us in about the history of the two planets as the story enfolds. For such a short work of prose, this novella is really impressive in that it manages to explore the theme o

MALTA HIKING TALES (PART FIVE) GHAJN TUFFIEFA AND QUARABBA BAY

Image
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! I'm back with another Malta themed post. Recently I posted a painting inspired by Malta. As some of you might remember, I visited Malta a few years ago, but I only blogged about it last April, when I published a series of post on Malta. My series about Malta isn't finished, though. In fact, today we're going to continue it. Considering my stay on Malta was two weeks long, it deserves more than a couple of posts. There is a lot to see and do on Malta. It's a small island, but one that's filled with so much life and beauty. Although Malta faces some problems caused by fast tourism, it remains an unique and magical island.  In this post, I'll take you to the bays I visited while hiking on Malta. One of them (Ghajn Tuffieha Bay) is the one I painted. You can visit that post by clicking on the link below: TRAVEL WITH MY ART #43, GHAJN TUFFIEHA BAY, MALTA LET'S START WITH THE GOLDEN BAY We actually didn't go all the way

THE ANT AND THE GRASSHOPPER, A SHORT STORY BY W. SOMERSET MAUGHAM

Image
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! Welcome November! We'll welcome this new month with a blog review. In this post, I'll share my review for Maugham's short story titled T he Ant and the Grasshopper . This post will also be  a reading recommendation because I enjoyed this story a great deal. I've been reading Maugham's The Complete Short Stories for some time now. I've been taking my time with this collection, but I enjoyed it a lot. When I finish this book in its entirely, I'll share a review for all of his stories. Until then, I'll keep posting individual reviews of stories I liked the most. If you want to read Maugham yourself, you can find his collected works online (among other places  on project Gutenberg ) and read them for free.  W. Somerset Maugham is a writer whose subtle use of humour is delightful, but sometimes it's easy to miss it just because it's so subtle. He's wonderful at mixing the harsh realities of life with clever

FASHION ILLUSTRATION FRIDAY WATERCOLOUR: LONG DRESSES AND DE PROFUNDIS QUOTES!

Image
 Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! It's almost ten. I've had a long week and I'm quite tired and sleepy. However, I'll try to wrap this post up for you tonight. What kind of post? Well, a post about art. Fashion art to be more precise.  I've been on a roll lately with my art posts. After a period of not posting my art at all, due to a variety of reasons, I started posting my art in every post. I got back to my destination art series, and now it's time for another post in my fashion art series. Friday Fashion Illustration  is somewhat of a regular feature on my blog. Today I'll share two watercolour pencil fashion illustrations of mine. I sketched both of them this Summer in my A3 mixed media sketchbook. I sketched the long yellow dress first, and then the blue and read one. The medium for both of them is watercolour pencils on paper, the same brand I always use. I find watercolour pencils to be quite practical, especially for sketching. I often use the
