SECRET SMILE RELEASE PARTY

last friday we celebrated the release of the second edition of secret smile. it was an evening of all the amazing girls we met in the last year on our way. 

jovana reisinger, who made a zine and a little surprise for secret smile, read an abstract of her novel and took us on an intensive journey of a young women freeing herself from the past and tempting fate.

matching the dusky mood kitzi and chrisi carried on with that lyrical feeling and casted a spell over the audience by playing a beautiful acoustic concert. their haunting melodies found their way to secret smile as well.

BRIGHT SIDE OF LIFE

we are broiled, stoked and inspired. berlin felt like a friendly concrete jungle with its 38 degrees this weekend. stasi hauptquartier, the new location of the bright tradeshow, brought us back in time. we met some good old friends and big boy dreams came true.

LIVE, LEARN, GROW

element eden. already the name on it´s own captivates us; like the whole story around this brand.

there are the element eden advocates. a  troupe of talented and passionated girls with visions and social awareness. there is a collection called "conscious by nature".  its main focus lies in producing with sustainable materials. and the actual spring/summer collection is inspired by awakenings and new beginnings. it plays with rock chic attitude and the eighties and nineties.

everything looks and sounds so soulful. element eden makes out a perfect mix of nature, art, fashion and culture and they always manage to create something with substance and depth.

here you go for the inspiring movie of the photoshoot.
