Show us your look and win tickets to the Mercedes-Benz FashionWeek Amsterdam

A special evening requires a special look. That’s why we want to know: What would you wear to the MBFWA?

If you have already an entire outfit in mind - great! Just take a pic and share it with us on Instagram (instructions below). Do you have a favourite accessory or a special piece of clothing that will be the center of attention for your look? Awesome! If you want to shine and win, you don’t have to show us your whole look. A picture of one single item, like that vintage leather bag, your designer heels or your favorite dress; is enough to participate.

Spijkers en Spijkers at Mercedes-Benz FashionWeek Amsterdam

The Dutch twin sisters Truus and Riet are the designers behind the label Spijkers en Spijkers. Both sisters studied Fashion design at the College of Art in Arnhem and in 2000 they finished their master at the Fashion Institute Arnhem.

Since the label’s foundation in 2001, Spijkers en Spijkers have built an instantly recognizable and desirable style: one known for its graphic detailing, and distinct use of colour. In 2010 Spijkers en Spijkers created a more accessible line to carry out their vision and draw an opportunity to enlarge their audience in the Netherlands and abroad, named SIS.

Monique Collignon at Mercedes-Benz FashionWeek Amsterdam

Monique Collignon is a strong Dutch (Haute) Couture brand, with the potential to conquer the world. Their mission: Empowering women.

Each unique (and numbered) Collignon design is recognizable by its elegant confident feminine cut, its eye-catching allure and stylish appeal that is never out of fashion. Offering features that are fitted to the woman who likes to wear Collignon, it gives a woman power in all her facets.
