The Concept
Formed in june 2010, as Boheme Noir Blog. Renamed to Dress Code: High Fashion in june 2011 (the change of name had to happen to avoid copyright-issues).
Dress Code: High Fashion is a daily online magazine. It is strictly high fashion: refined, high-end, sophisticated, traditional, luxurious, glamorous, edgy and exclusive.
I do both, Menswear and Womenswear, because they depend on each other - what is a lady without a matching gentleman and vice versa!? I think every human being should always dress the best they can and I hope to encourage and support a return of elegance and sophistication with my magazine.
More than pretty pictures
There is no sophistication and cultivation without thinking. An unreflected or superficial person or thing can never possess true beauty, that`s why all things featured in my blog have to have a significant background, sense or meaning.
To me, something is good when it makes you think and wonder. Wonder is the beginning of all discovery. That`s why I encourage a discussion with every post.
The Timeline
Even though fashion collections are presented months in advance I believe in covering them in the right season - who is interested in next summer`s mini-dresses in the middle of winter!?!
So I`m posting summer collections from january to june, summer Haute Couture in february and Prefall collections in june. Winter collections from july to december, winter Haute Couture in july and Cruise collections in december.
