Hakaan Yildirim

Carine Roitfeld is flying to London from New York tomorrow solely to see Hakaan Yildirim's show as London Fashion Week commences. This designer from Istanbul is likely a new face for most, though he has garnered major awards in the fashion world of Turkey. His show is being styled by Vogue's Edward Enninful and Natasha Poly, Anje Rubik, Lara Stone, and Natalia Vodianova will grace his runway. This 37 year old was discovered by Mert Alas on a photo shoot and — abracadabra — he makes London Fashion Week. Monsieur Yildirim is now based in London and he is represented by Relative | MO.

Here is a photograph of Carine Roitfeld at the Hakaan show today at London Fashion Week. She looks so beautiful and her hair is perfect. Why wave when you have this...

Also check out this brief video backstage at Hakaan in which Carine professes her interest in his designs, if he will make her a longer skirt she will wear it.

I am very disappointed to see you have used my personal photographs on your blog without crediting my blog. It is against the etiquette of the blogosphere to do so.

Melanie, I had credited the photo to Grazia with whom you are associated as Fashion Editor-at-Large thinking this was the proper attribution. I have added this to the credit. I hope that you will find it in your heart to forgive my oversight.
