The incredible 'Bowie'


How stunningly gorgeous are the creations from Australia's  bridal and formalwear label bowie??



The designs somewhat remind me of Sarah burton for alexander Mc Queen , the white collection..

elegant and classy just like women should be.


But still totally amazing and original, the attention to detail is incredible!


I suddenly know where my wedding dress is coming from...

What dreams are made of...

Pastels!

I cannot get enough of this trend, in my world its a classic!
I love how soft, elegant, and beautiful the latest Ellie Saab collection is, all a complete delight!

 If one's budget would allow for it I would have every one of these frothy confections!





And just a few equally as perfect pastel pieces!

The experience of helping to style and dress the 'first flower' show was amazing! All the models were so lovely and Kate is so trusting! I loved the beautiful fluid shapes of the collection that exuded femininity, yet had a edge to it to transition from weekend parties to contemporary office meetings.


Kate's Newest Collection ' soldiers and sweethearts ' is true to her glamorous and feminine aesthetic yet with a darker more vintage feel to it. I love it!






Gorgeous!

Stunning Shoot

Please Style ?

Today, I was to style twenty eight year old Stephanie at department store Myer in looks suitable for both a day at the office and for after hours drinks. The lengths and styles had to be demure yet sexy, and appropriate for the transition from day to night. Stephanie would also prefer more dresses for quick, easy dressing to throw on in the morning rush.

We determined Stephanie's body shape as an apple shape with out a defined waist and a large bust. For this shape we decided to place emphasis on her bust line in v-necklines, detail around the bust, and wide boat necks to balance out her proportions. However, we did also place emphasis on her waist with sashes and belts and softly flowing skirts. The prints used show her youth and personality, and the medium sizes of the prints were proportionate to her frame. Her dress size is a 14 to 16, and her shoe size is a 10.
