Sunday evening @ Gazi

...and as we were wandering around we came across a photo shoot that caught our attention. The model's fuchsia dress and weird accessories stood out against the grey surroundings. We followed her and were led to Holy Moustache's Stock Sacrifiction at the Interpid Fox. Vintage clothes, shoes, sunglasses, magazines, vinyls, turntables and other surreal items from the seventies-eighties were exhibited either on a pool table or hanging in a large cage, in perfect harmony with the bar's wild rock decoration.
(Holy Stock Sacrifiction: 17-21/01, 14:00-23:00 @ Intrepid FOX Bar, Gazi)

"Swap not Shop" Xmas edition @ Six D.O.G.S.

"Swap not Shop" is a clothing exchange party, organised by Sandra-Odette, Thalia and Viviana (more info: www.swishing.gr). This time the event took place at the Six D.O.G.S., the new place to be in Athens, a multispace including a bar, a cafe place, a Project space (for exhibitions,one-off events), a Studio Complex (atelier for artists, designers) and a Utility Place (for live gigs, workshops etc). Athenswears visited the event, which turned out to be a big success judging from the number of people who participated and from their enthusiasm!

No limits, no rules, no money, just swapping, as the girls say!

Christmas is coming..

...so we took a walk in downtown Athens to see what’s happening!
We started with the Meet the Market bazaar, at Technopolis, in the Gazi area. We met a joyful atmosphere and loads of people strolling around and spent the day taking photos in a frenzy. Here’s what we came up with...
