Fashion Exposed: Debut apparel category winners
Written by Tania Braukamper
Labels Eternal Safari and Sebastian's Sister began collaborating in 2008, and thus far have proved a successful partnership. Together, they conceive cleverly thought-out garments that twist and turn and transform from one thing into another and back again. Their debut collection 'It was a restless moment' may stick to a palette of classic black, but the construction of the pieces is more than adventurous enough to make this collection worth a look.
At the Sydney 2009 Fashion Exposed fair, this collection was awarded the winner of the apparel category in the Debut initiative, the judges calling it "elegant, bohemian, distressed yet beautiful and intelligent".
The Debut program is aimed at giving upcoming designers a helping hand with breaking into the competitive industry that is fashion. Collecting a prize pool in excess of $6,000 the winners of Debut have each secured an individual location within FASHION EXPOSED or preview the following season, as well as WGSN trend workshops valued at $500.

There aren't too many alpha-females out there and, though she might deny it, Tania Braukamper certainly exudes their qualities. A keen eye, a focused approach, and a wardrobe spanning three rooms have made her one of the savviest of dressers. But it's not all couture for Tania, earning her fashionista credentials she'll frequently be seen on the town in a one-off, vintage dress and a pair of Gucci heels.
She says: Vintage will never go out of style
We say: Does that include vintage 80s?
