Part 1: AW12 Showings

Thursday, Sunday

The lovely designers of Thursday, Sunday – Iris & Mara

DRESS UP

Therese Rawsthorne

We also saw the new Gary Bigeni collection but left our camera at the office! skirts and tops with two fabric cuts – leather against merino wool, silks against jersey – beautiful contradiction, we think.

Next week we have Arnsdorf, Benah & Estelle Deve showings… plus rounding up our buying for our international brands – 3 new labels coming next season – 2 jewellery & 1 clothing label already featured in an Australian magazine (stay tuned for that one).

The Showing / Therese Rawsthorne SS12 / TWIN PEAKS

Met up with the girls from Therese Rawsthorne for our showing, at a beautiful white terrace in Surry Hills on Friday night (2 weeks ago – late post, I know). The setting was a perfect finish to the runway show that week. The lovely and passionate Margot took me through the entire range while we shared a glass of red wine…  x

RAFW DAY 2: Therese Rawsthorne SS12 ‘ Twin Peaks’

Despite living only 5 minutes away from the Carriage Works, I still managed to be late…..but I didn’t miss the show (never would!). Like last year, the show was off-site and for good reason. Therese seems to select the perfect space to create an atmosphere and mood that enhances the presence of the collection on the runway- this year the underlying inspiration was the characters of Twin Peaks – with drum lights, clusters of bare-leaf branches positioned down the runway and white neon strobe lights at the start. The hair and makeup of the models was so beautiful with a somewhat oriental feel and a splash of rock star attitude. The pieces were fluid and light with lots of silk in tangerine, peach,  white, black and a fresh (perfect summer) print. Pants came printed, cropped, wide and sheer – loved all of them!.
