Retail Therapy

Westfield Doncaster is having their very own Fashion Festival - This week from Thursday to Sunday
Perfect timing to publish some pics from my recent visits, mostly due to an amazing prize I won during Fashion Week
In the last post, I re-capped all my looks from the week, and some of you took a guess which was the winning look...
We attended the Electric Lounge Launch hosted by the lovely Lady Melbourne and Style Melbourne, and was chosen as most stylish of the evening (:D) The prize was a $1,000 Westfield Wardrobe. It was such an honour to be considered, but even more so, that I was wearing my own designs.
 Over 2 late night shopping spree's, I picked up some great Australian designer duds, a blingy hand piece and a fresh cut. Got to love a new look for Spring! ~ Even that I only have another 4 days to enjoy it!

I chose Spring knits from Australian Designers, for my European Autumn!
My winning look ;) I wore the wool crepe Palazzo pant from my Spring 2012 collection / H&M Metallic knit / Witchery Belt / Mollini pumps
With a mere 4 days left in this beautiful country, I hope to get a chance see some you during the Westfield Doncaster Fashion Festival. Details here: The Fashion Festival

This collection is about honoring my roots in intricate beadwork while embracing sustainable practices and modern elegance. My design process starts with textiles, and my palette has evolved into a rich tapestry of verdant hues—lush greens, earth tones, metallic blues, and soft greys. 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
