As you know here at CAGECITY we love our Aussie brands, this week Australia Fashion Week kicked off so we thought we'd give you a little round up of some of the show highlights!
Camilla and Marc celebrating 10 years since their Fashion Week debut, siblings Camilla Freeman-Topper and Marc Freeman kept silhouette's sleek and modern adding contrasting textures and prints to their trademark tailoring. The collection was inspired by Russian matryoshka dolls which is conveyed through layers of delicate lace and gold brocade. The collection overall is very wearable, minimalist but perhaps not the most inspiring of collections, however the pieces are truly beautiful, opulent and timeless.
Alex Perry, two words... THOSE BOOTS! Opting of something a bit different to his usual full length red carpet dresses Alex Perry's collection consisted of edgy short dresses and separates. Perspex with flower detailing, peeps of colour blocking and sports luxe. His designs are structured yet flirty, we love this new look!
Draping and embellishment was all the rage at Aurelio Costarella. The stage was backdropped with a painting created by Waldemar Kolbusz. Burtsing with colour it was the perfect contrast to the neutral pallet of the pretty Grecian dresses(bar the deep turquoise dresses!)The intricate beading of the face masks was the perfect finishing touch to adorn the models!
Ginger & Smart's SS13 collection is a feast of colour the graphic prints in hot pink and colbalt blue are striking and kaleidoscope'esque. The collection had a sports luxe vibe portrayed through leather panelling, mesh inserts and sharp silhouettes. The accessories played a big part in this show, box clutches, platform heels and gloves graced the catwalk. This is one collection that left us wishing we owned just about everything!
