Harper’s Bazaar Charity T-shirts at Bongénie Grieder

Bongénie Grieder participates in the annual T-shirt project from Harper’s Bazaar in partnership with London fashion boutique Browns.

The t-shirts are designed by top French fashion designers to raise money and awareness for Women for Women International, a charity helping women whose lives have been ravaged by war.

Whether its Marant’s arresting call to arms, the rainbow hues of Chloé’s solidarity affirmation or the garden-fresh optimism of Agnés B’s magnolias, the T-shirts make a fashionable statement whilst showing commitment to a worthy cause.

All t-shirts are Sfr.65.00 and available at Bongénie Geneva, Grieder Zurich and on www.bongenie-grieder.ch.

Nadia goes Neon!

in collaboration with

present

Let us introduce Nadia! Why does she look familiar? She has also been our we heart your style girl, last week! A true G.lover! Nadia, age 21, studies law at the University of Zürich, is also a jewelry designer (by nk designs) and a blogger. Certainly a busy girl!!! 

Nadia was styled by G.point and got her hair, nails and make-up done by the PerfectHair.ch team! We dolled her up in funky NEON, a must have this summer!

A clutch no G.irl would ever return ;) !
Bag - Sfr.260

1. What inspired you last Saturday?
I learned that the neon look is really looking great if you wear different neon colors together, like green and yellow, and that if you don’t like neon too much, just try only one neon piece or a neon nail polish!

2. Will the styling tips you got at Stylish Saturday help you in your future fashion life?
At first, I didn’t like the neon trend so much but now I discovered slowly that this style is great to wear it during summer. I will definitely buy a pair of neon hot pants!

Las Vegas Baby!!!!!

Hey G.irls

We haven’t forgotten about you….we’ve just been stuck travelling for 20 hours to LAS VEGAS!!!!!

We are staying at the lovely and enourmous (like anything else here ;-) ) Wynn Hotel, which is right on the Strip!But for us, this trip is not about gambling. We are here for the MAGIC tradeshow and finding the most wicket things for G.point!!!

 Before hitting the show, we couldn’t resist a big American breakfast. Believe us, we need the energy as we walk around for about 8 hours straight…!

We both have found amazing things. American Westcoast rocks…

We are already looking forward to next winter!!!!!!!

Look at these great, US-sized neckleses Gabi found for you… Just kidding… Nothing is ever too big for Vegas, is it?!

Today, we finish seeing the show, then we head back to the hotel to do a ton of orders and in the evening we’ll go and have a drink at THE HOTEL, the bar with the most beautiful views of the Strip.

And tomorrow, girls, we are off to Los Angeles!!!!!!!! We keep you posted!

Muah, muah

Your G.irls Gabi & Nadja.

 

Fashion report from Nadja

Buyer, Adventurer, Fashion Police

Give us a short fashion trend report on SS2012 please.
Lots of all kind of prints… lots of colour-blocking again, from vivid to pastel to fluorescent-means you’ve got to own a pink, a yellow and a green pant this season!:) Another trend that finally reached Europe is the Navaho- or Native print! Wake up the little Pocahontas in yourself ;) ! Of course you’ll find all that at G.point!

Who sets the fashion trends?
Various brands are actually designer inspired. Any designer attracting fame such as Louis Vuitton, Dolce&Gabbana, Isabel Marant etc. gets a great following and each time they come up with a new style, it automatically becomes the latest trend. And nowadays celebrities for example, tend to be the first ones to take up the new style and the mass follows that. Then, other brands that are more affordable to us, create a “cheaper” version of it and that is where Zara and many others come in!

What do you love about your job!?
That every day is different! I love the constant travelling, meeting new people, discover new brands, speak different languages, negotiate, pass an order and then be all excited when it gets to the store a few months later, observe the clients behaviour, analyse the sales. Of course it isn’t always “la vie en rose”… sometimes we buyers live sleepless nights… not knowing if a trend will come through or not, so we are praying that it will, so we sell these hundreds of pieces we have ordered ;) ! It is a kind of a responsibility, trust me!

 Some of your favourite fashion labels this summer?
As for G.point I love the new multicoloured pullover Brand JUST IN CASE , the bicoloured Japanese Denim OGE & Co as well as super skinny pants from APRIL 77. To “hang out” for sure the sweats from FREE CITY!

Talking high-end fashion: PRADA, all 50’s cars –inspired and candy-coloured, was my favourite! Something totally fresh and new!
