Til Schweiger, Roberto Cavalli and a couple of very glamorous evenings ...

The glitziest of celebrities and the most famous of fashion designers were in Zurich last week, for Charles Voegele Fashion Days. The event kicked off on Wednesday with an opening night featuring clothing collections by Penelope and Monica Cruz, and German actor Til Schweiger. He took to the catwalk himself to present his collection. He's one of my favourite German actors, and I could hardly believe my eyes! But it's strange to see celebrities in real life, because you realise they are just normal people. I attended his press conference earlier in the day, and it was strange to be up so close! Thursday night was a more high fashion affair, with Roberto Cavalli himself attending and his Just Cavalli spring/ summer 2012 collection being shown on the catwalk. In the true style of fashion shows, the show started late. The crowd was very fashionable, and the editor of Swiss magazine Annabelle was dressed very glamorously. Roberto Cavalli is a wonderful character and was dressed very stylishly, head to toe in black, and of course wearing sunglasses. Some up and coming Swiss designers were presenting their collections, and amongst them was some very creative talent.
