MQ FASHION WEEK 2015 ALWA PETRONI & WHATEVER EYE

MQ FASHION WEEK 2015 ALWA PETRONI & WHATEVER EYE

Fashion Week Vienna

The busiest week has finally come to Vienna, MQ Fashion Week 2015 is here and that means one week of non-stop fashion shows, Haute couture, and new proposals. MQ Fashion Week started last Sunday with the Opening Show of the German designer Marina Hoermanseder hosted by Flair Magazine.

I started my week by assisting with my friend Simona to Alwa Petroni and whatever Eye, a beautiful show I have to say. Alwa Petroni is a successful Austrian designer, who has made her name over the years, she is also a milliner and her extravagant hair pieces were, of course, part of the show.

Alwa finds her inspiration from past decades, however not only for the clothes collection but also for her handicraft accessories pieces. Her proposal in black consisted of beautiful dresses where she mixes materials creating a sophisticated and elegant look.

ALWA PETRONI COLLECTION

The second designer we could appreciate was Whatever Eye, the designer behind is Stefanie Grißmann, she graduates from the university of applied arts in Vienna and in 2103 she opened her own atelier. Her clothes are distinct from her elaborate drapes and high-quality silk fabrics. She founds her inspiration everywhere, but especially in the music. Her proposal was goodness dresses in silk and other materials with elaborate drapes which remained me of Greece and Roman goodness.

The way she transform the fabric is fantastic, and I do not even want to think in the work hours she invested in created every single look.

WHATEVER EYE COLLECTION

I have to say I liked these two designers and their proposal, unfortunately, I could not stay more to see the end of day 2, but we were delighted to see these two amazing designers and add them to our favorite list of local designers. Fortunately is a lot to come still this week and we cannot wait to see the rest of the new upcoming designers and new ideas.

EMS TRAINING IN EXTREM SCHÖN VIENNA

EMS TRAINING IN EXTREM SCHÖN VIENNA

Extrem Schön

Last week, I had the opportunity to visit Extrem Schön Fit & Med Lounge Vienna, where you can find EMS training, Lipo-massage, skincare and much more.

If you are looking to start training for 20 min with EMS stimulation, this is your place. Electrical stimulation acts on the muscle provoking muscle to work, and the muscle progress is nothing but the result of that work. Having the electro stimulation meanwhile, your training gives the order to the muscle to make the maximum number of muscle fiber to work, therefore the amount of time you require to train is relatively short as normal training.

The EMS increase also the strength and muscular mass, and you can elevate the intensity of your training, which means more and more fibers are recruited in the muscle required in training.

This type of training lets us work with almost no sensation of physical tiring and will let you raise the intensity more and more without experiencing any tiring sensation.

If you want to improve your training, EMS is your answer and you will have an almost infinite number of advantages like improving your physical condition, shorter time of training and the best benefit of your training.

Extrem Schön also offers different treatments not just for the body but also for the face, with last technology of the market. One of my favorites is the OxyGeneo treatment for the face where you are going to experience a 3 in 1 super facial that includes exfoliation, infuse and oxygenate. This treatment will restore the skin volume, renewed youthful glow, increase collagen, reduce hyperpigmentation and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.

Another amazing treatment they offer is the triple action Fat reduction with the Maximus Pollogen medical device, with this treatment you will have a cellulite reduction, minimization of acne scars enhanced blood circulation and more important long-lasting fat and circumference reduction.

I must say the place is amazing and the service also, I really fall in love with this spa in the middle of Vienna, and I cannot wait to start my EMS training and maybe my Oxygeneo treatment.
