Paperback Lovers

As a part of their AW12 collection, camilla & marc, enlisted Errol Rainey to direct their debut fashion short film.

Texan model, Amy Bailey, elegantly dances her way around a beautiful courtyard... this black and white footage perfectly captures the mood and aesthetic of the entire collection.

Be sure to watch absolutely delightful 1960s-inspired clip here http://vimeo.com/31889317

oneweardesigns.com

I recently discovered the website, oneweardesigns.com... It is a new website, with a very cool concept. Oneweardesign.com allows you to buy, sell or swap pre-loved designer clothing... It also allows small designer boutiques who may not have the time or resources to set up their own websites, the opportunity to sell their designs under their own URL and store name.

There are currently 30 designers from Sydney and Melbourne who have signed up, as well as 80 individuals selling clothes from designers like Collette Dinnigan, Manning Cartell, Lisa Ho, Camilla & Marc, Sass & Bide and Alex Perry. 

It's definitely a site to keep your eye on... You're sure to find yourself a bargain!

Spotted...

Jennifer Lopez received a $500 000 grant for her non-profit organization that helps improve the health and wellbeing of women and children. While doing so, the Latino beauty wowed in a blue Lisa Ho tulle dress... B E A U TIFUL !

Spotted...

Rose Byrne was out and about at the CAA Young Hollywood Party during the week and wore a gorgeous lace dress by Manning Cartell. 

I'm curious about that band-aid on her arm... I hope she doesn't make a habit of it!

Kim Kardashian InStyle

Last week I previewed Kim Kardashian's cover for InStyle's Australia November issue in a gorgeous J'Aton dress.

I promised to keep you posted on who she wore and what she wore inside the spread, and I can confirm she donned a mixture of Marchesa and vintage designs, along with a beautiful ivory lace and silk dress by Sydney designer, Anaessia.

 

One Teaspoon

This week 2 celebs were spotted rocking One Teaspoon designs.

Firstly, Kourtney Kardashian wore a cream ruffle One Teaspoon dress out for dinner at Bar Pitti in New York

 

Later the same week, Rachel Barry herself, Lea Michele was shopping in LA in a fab cream knitted jumper (or sweater for our international readers) by One Teaspoon 

Kim Kardashian in J'Aton

Kim Kardashian graces the cover of InStyle Australia's latest issue is a gorgeous nude J'Aton dress. I really like this cover... sometimes I feel Kim is too overdone, but here she looks relaxed, fresh and very pretty.

I'm excited to see who she wears in the full shoot... Will keep you posted!

Martin Grant at PFW

Martin Grant is probably one of Australia's most successful fashion exports... However most Aussies have never even heard of him. He moved to Europe over 20 years ago, after his first collection was thought up on Little Collins St in Melbourne. He is one of two Australians who have membership to the Federation Francaise de la Couture, the governing body of the French fashion industry, the other being Collette Dinnigan. His designs are stocked in exclusive boutiques and department stores worldwide, including, Harvey Nichols, Barneys and Saks Fifth Avenue. He designs Barneys’ signature women’s wear line, The Barneys Collection, and also consults to two Italian fashion houses, and a few years back, he was headhunted to replace Michael Kors as artistic director at Celine, but he declined due to existing commitments. He shows his collections twice a year at Paris Fashion Week and he never ceases to amaze the crowd, this SS11/12 collection was no exception, where colour was definitely his story for spring. 

Change is in the Air!

After 8 years, Qantas is saying good bye to Peter Morrissey's uniforms and hello to a new look by another Aussie designer.

The Qantas CEO, Alan Joyce confirmed they will be meeting with a range of Aussie designers, and a final choice will be made in early 2012.

It has also been confirmed that designers such as, Akira Isogawa, Collette Dinnigan, Martin Grant, Easton Pearson and Richard Nicoll will present their ideas to Qantas representatives.

SUCH an exciting opportunity! Peter Morrissey has said the uniforms he designed for Qantas, which incorporated Aboriginal prints was the "proudest thing" he has ever done.

Miranda Kerr Stuns at Paris Fashion Week

Miranda Kerr has definitely been making her mark at Paris Fashion Week this year. The Aussie supermodel has been quite busy, glamming up for designers such as Dior, Galliano and Lanvin. She looked absolutely gorgeous and did such an incredible job representing Australian models on the World stage... You cannot fault her. I die for her (and Orlando... he was spotted front row at the shows totally gushing and taking photos of his beautiful wife... sooooooooo cute!)
