jingle, jingle...already?

yeap..Christmas season is almost here! It's been a heck of a year and seems to have absolutely flown by for us..it's hard to believe we are gearing up for the Christmas shopping season already. 

We will be showing this year at Magnolia Square in the charming Malvern Town Hall. We will have a gorgeous selection of beautiful pieces so it won't be hard to find something perfect to wear on Christmas day. The theme of this event is sparkle and with the high caliber of retailers and the always stunning visual display..Magnolia Square will be as divine as ever.

We do hope to see some of you there - we always love to meet our customers face to face so please come and introduce yourself and have a chat XX

Ekkkk; its almost embarassing to be finally doing a post.....our poor neglected blog! Good news is it is been neglected because we have been so flat out! Flat out doing all sorts of exciting things! 

We had a great time showing at Life in Style recently and launched our spectacular antique grain sack bags. Each is hand crafted using the most beautiful of leathers and fixtures and designed around the feature - the antique grain sack. Each is wonderfully unique. They are just divine and went mad at the fair. You will start seeing them in stores soon. When we get on top of our shop orders we will also put some on our big cartel site.

Introducing three of our new styles.....

Stage left is the CoCo Slip. Originally designed as a piece to layer with other styles, this have evolved as a dress in it's own right. Layers of raw hemmed loveliness.

Middle is the Terell Dress so named after one of our lovely Mums ( Dannis) A beautiful ruffled layered collar and the most superb shape to the back.

And to the right is the Jennie Dress, this time named after my Mum. Button down front to double as a jacket, touch of raw hemming and stunning pleated detail.

Just three of our new pieces but stay tuned to this channel - there are loads more to come. In stores in 8 short weeks. Tell us what you think X

one of my favourite lines from this gorgeous song...nothing to do with fashion except that it is beautiful.....enjoy your weekend and enjoy this glorious tune......

down the laneway......

before we even begun on this journey into the world of fashion and frocks we did all the usual ( and boring) things......wrote the business plan ( haven't stuck to it), forecasted a budget ( nope, haven't stuck to that either) and profiled our perfect wholesale customer. That part we did stick to...and firm. It is so important to us to have our pieces in the right places so we put a lot of thought into where our collection best fits. The profile went something like this....must stock like-minded labels, must be supportive of  Australian design, must of course be divine looking and well-branded  and last but certainly not last must be easy to deal with. 

How lucky we are to have found so many stockists who fit that description so well. Its hard not to have favs buuuuut if we did, Laneway would be right in there at the front of the line. A beautiful looking shop, inviting and charming in equal measure; a gorgeous range of labels all complimentive of each other and a team of staff like no other. They are just so damn NICE!! And creative...check out the amazing illustrated sign that the lovely Liza has created....superb!

Look at that amazing bit of signage! Couldn't have done it better ourselves!

we lurve the ornate mirror.

a beautiful space...

the beautiful ava dress; a fav at Laneway
