Despite taking inspiration from New York City’s architecture, Parisian lifestyle and the British silhouette, new fashion label, macgraw, is a lovechild of local Australian passion.

It’s often suggested that Victoria’s Secret are one of the few fashion companies with the ability to ‘make’ a model. If that be true, then there’s another fashion company whose power of influence needs to be acknowledged: Burberry. Having brought her to many a person’s attention, there’s no doubt that Burberry have made a name out of Cara Delevingne. And her smouldering looks certainly have …

It’s hard to imagine this odd clash of eras – this mix of androgyny and frou frou French Revolution femininity – working on anyone other than Cara Delevingne.

Young Germany-based fashion designer Rayan Odyll is having a love affair with multi-tone prints for spring 2012. Finding their way onto luxe silks, these prints were “developed from abstracted childhood memories, floral motifs and Polkadots” resulting in an exotic mix that warrants the collection’s title: Cultural Limbo.
