B L N - Bread and Butter

It's tradeshow season in the fashion world. First stop for me was Berlin, visiting the monster of a show Bread and Butter and taking in as many of the myriad of boutiques and concept stores of the city, with an essential coffee stop or two in order to thaw out. What we enjoyed less was being delayed by 11 hours on our return to the snow ridden Heathrow, thank God for Green and Black's hazelnut and raisin and the simple pleasures of Playmobil! Here's my trip in pictures...
Kicking off the day the best way possible at Cafe Hilde.
Cafe Hilde florals.
Bread and Butter time. In typical Berlin style utilizing their incredible disused buildings,
the show is bi annually held in this old airport.
Loved these porcelain animal rings by Nach Jewellery.
Show lights.
Cool kicks from new season Adidas.
Whilst doing the shops we stumbled across a local glasses shop, with THE best glasses, check out the pterodactyl at the back!
Loved the new collection by Julian Zigerli. Marble print neoprene, yes please!
Show snackette.
Innovative installation by Dominic Wilcox

Insane glasses.
Unresistable stripes by Orcival.
Tasty cakes at Kaffee Mitte, defrosting stop.
Outside the show.
Best shop in Berlin; a local corner shop selling Coca Cola, instant coffee and life size dog statues.
S- bahn station colour palette
Dizzying heights at the Holiday Inn!
Cosy corner at Katz Orange, a debatable dinner  but incredible surrounding, review to come...
