This year's Elite Model Look 2018 again took place at one of our most majestic venues; at Prague Castle. But that is customary here in Bohemia, that events of a "more international" import cause panic and indecision in respect of half of the guests about what to put on. In today's Fashion against the Current this unwritten rule affected a number of guests…
Hana Vagnerová:
Since I did not want to be the cruellest judge right at the start, I shall deliberately start precisely with Hanka. Her model was simply perfect, as one of the few. The snow-white minimalist gown by Vivienne Westwood was just perfect for the occasion. It was accessorised by carmine-red square handbag and perfect hairstyling. That is what it should look like!

Lucie Borhyová:
One of the most popular presenters for two decades arrived at the event in absolutely great mood, as is the norm in her case. The salmon-coloured dress, off one shoulder fitted her perfectly, the silver clutch bag matched her jewellery, hairstyle alá Saskia Burešová was also first-class...only those high heels! To me, they did not go, as the only thing. They look a bit unwieldy, like from some country ball. I would therefore opt for a dainty pair of strappy high heels. Otherwise - perfect balance!

Pavlína Němcová:
One of our models with a great name also abroad came to the event like a true professional. A dotted dress of raspberry colour, together with subtle waves in her hair turned her into the temptress of the evening (in a good way). Once again, we see the square-type handbag, which became a hit of this season. To sum it up, great success!

Helena Vondráčková:
One of our most notable pop-music legends, clearly demonstrated at Elite Model Look that she is not ready to retire yet. A perfect figure, flair and style...one had to give her her due. I like very much how the sleeves were designed. Transparent elastic tulle perfectly obscures imperfections of mature complexion, knowhow shared also by actress Jane Fonda. This simply is “to have style and sexappeal even after seventy”. Bravo!

Monika Babišová:
The wife of Andrej Babiš arrived at the event in an unusual colour. Olive-grey dress from Alize boutique was accessorised by a mint-coloured clutch bag and a pair of heels by Jimmy Choo. The overall boring dress was fortunately saved by her make-up and a princess-style updo. Paradoxically, this put the total impression to a completely different place altogether. So, to finish up, good.

Iva Pazderková:
Funeral fairy from dark caves? Iva arrived at this event essentially wearing a model, about which there is not much to criticise, because this black dress is simply representative of mediocrity that will not put out anyone. Once again, we see the trendy angular purse...but that make-up! I am not surprised that to this event she was accompanied by her celebrity hairdresser, Michal Zapomněl. Because a person with this make-up and hairstyle perhaps could not have walked alongside her potential fiancé. If Iva took a shortcut on her way home through the Petřín orchards, it would be quite possible that we would read stories about a new phantom that began to haunt the place.

Agáta Prachařová:
The wife of the presenter of the evening, Agáta, arrived at the Elite Model Look in a dress of dubious quality. I did a little investigation and discovered that she borrowed it from fashion designer Michal Marek. Currently sold at a discount at -50% for CZK 8,900. And from what I understand, the dress is probably from some old collection. Not only it did not flatter Agáta, but it revealed her flesh-coloured lingerie and that was not nice, let alone sexy. But what could you expect from 100% polyester...
