German designer Guido Maria Kretschmer takes his guests for a ride.<br/> The veteran presented his fall/winter 2012 collection in Berlin with a little help from his past travels.<br/> SOUNDBITE: Guido Maria Kretschmer, designer, saying (German):<br/> "It was a ride with the Trans-Siberian Railroad. It was a look that I encountered from Southwest and Central Asia through to Mongolia all the way to China. That is the look. I present some Mongolian looks, Southwest Asian, slightly Japanese looks. So it's folklore but interpreted in a completely new way. 'Damoi' means 'home' in Russian, and that is exactly what this is. Those were places where I felt completely comfortable during my travels."<br/> The outfits presented on the catwalk were unexpected, delicate and wearable at the same time.<br/> Geisha-like models were topped off with fur hats, showcasing Asian inspired dresses with floral prints, and floating fabrics.<br/> Kretschmer has even called this collection his most personal ever.<br/> Berlin Fashion Week will end on January 21.<br/> Alicia Powell, Reuters.
