Cecile Paul, Pynck.com: „The German capital Berlin oozes creativity from every crevice of its ancient cobbled roads. Here the old and the new vie for position. Its ultra-hip eateries and beer gardens, graffiti-ed walls and theatrical ambience are the perfect backdrop for the bi-annual, much-anticipated fashion week that the city gifts the uber-fashion-conscious local crowd.
