Electric Lounge Launch

Sucker punched by the flu!

Melbourne Spring Fashion week is upon us again, and after the bitterest winter I can recall, the thought of taking the week off to enjoy the cities events during MSFW has kept me motivated and hard at work. Waking up with flu symptoms put a kink in my plans, and spent most of the morning in tears, a sort of tantrum like behaviour. Thankfully I have a supportive boyfriend to talk me off the ledge, so I switched to a more comfortable outfit than the one I had planned, and headed to Doncaster with my bestie for a night out all things fashion.

Thank You to bloggers Phoebe of Lady Melbourne & Sarah of Style Melbourne for the fun event, and all the lovelies we met tonight. See you all next week at the runway shows!

Sustainability remains at the forefront, with natural fibres, ethically sourced Thai silk from my travels last year, and upcycled fabrics from local op shops. Faux fur, a treasure from my decade-old fabric collection, adds a layer of texture and nostalgia. Embellishments will include...

Veiled

VEILED - exploring the significance throughout time and culture. Veils first appeared in ancient cultures as a form of protection from evil spirits. Its symbolism has changed over time, from status in society, to sign of innocence and propriety. While some view the veil as a way to divide god and men, biblically the veil is seen as access, unity and intimacy with the Divine. Besides its enduring religious significance, veiling continues to play a role in almost all cultures on the planet to this day. I've worn veils throughout my life, all 3 of my weddings, religious ceremonies an aplenty of times for fun. Like this shoot with my girls (and self portraits on timer). And the significance of the rose.... that's for another time
