LMFF Show Coverage: L'Oreal Paris Runway 1

AUTHOR DATE TIME

The first of seven main parades to be held as part of the A/W 2008 retail festival, yesterday's show included designs from camilla & marc, Ginger & Smart, Jayson Brunsdon, Kirrily Jonhston, sass & bide, Leona Edmiston, and Marnie Skillings. Check out all of the runway photos in the Fashion Diary.

Come out and PLAY: rise of the designer tee

AUTHOR DATE TIME

One can easily be forgiven for thinking that mass production results in greater choices for clothes. But take a closer look at those varied options and you'll see that they are practically all the same. For example the humble t-shirt; perhaps one of the most mass produced clothing items. Just in the last couple of years we have seen a myriad of fluorescents, vintage prints, Asian fonts, stripes, spots, logos, V-necks, crew necks, boat necks and more. Every season it's just another case of "same same, but different". Even that was done to death.

Roberto Cavalli Autumn-Winter 08-09 Round-up

AUTHOR DATE TIME
Sheer fabrics, shiny shoes and interesting patterns all the ingredients of a Cavalli collection, but this one seems much softer and feminine then what we usually see.

My favourites from the Roberto Cavalli Milan runway;

David Jones A/W 2008 Collections Launch

AUTHOR DATE TIME

A tree-lined catwalk set the scene for Wednesday night's David Jones Autumn/Winter collections launch. Titled 'A Japanese Story', the parade showcased top Australian designers from Sass & Bide through to the likes of Collette Dinnigan and Akira.

Model and long-time face of David Jones Megan Gale bade an emotional yet gracious farewell to the David Jones runway - accepting a bunch of flowers while a flutter of "snow" rained down gently at the end of the runway.

Documenting: A Mink Magazine Shoot.

AUTHOR DATE TIME

I got the chance to hop along to one of the editorial shoots for the upcoming Mink Magazine organised by Sandi & shot by Wayne. It was one of the first cold days this summer and the shoot was under a bridge, unfortunately for me I made my way to the wrong bridge at first, eventually though I found the right one. The shoot features clothes by Anna Campbell & models Tessa-Jay & Tanjil.

Blumarine Autumn-Winter 2008-2009 Round--Up

AUTHOR DATE TIME

I really liked the Blugirl, so I thought I might like the Blumarine collection aswell and I was right. It was awesome to see some splashes of colour amongst a sea of collections which seem to have been largly monotone. With cuts ranging from sexy to cute, again I'm a fan.

There's a whole lot more great stuff in this collection that's worth checking out but there wasn't enough space to squeeze it into the image above.
