Alice McCall MBFWA

Alice McCall collection show was inspired by retro 1950's shapes and silhouettes.

Inspired by Prada's SS12 collection, Alice McCall featured Prada SS12-inspired jewellery in earrings & necklaces on the catwalk with the show being styled by Vogue Australia Fashion Editor Meg Gray.

Collection featured sheer silk t-shirt style blouses, metallic fleck fabrics and beautiful beaded embellishments in soft baby pink, blue and coral. Dresses were fitted to the waist and then flared out in either a full skirt or peplum style.

A truly beautiful and feminine collection and I will definitely be shopping the collection when it hits the stores.



MBFWA Day 3: KL's outfit



Jayson Brunsdon MBFWA

Jayson Brunsdon showed his collection with a saloon style feel over a glass of whiskey.

The installation style showing was designed by AZB creative with beautiful styled platforms, models draped over chaises, soft flower decorations.

The vibe of the room was exciting with a whimsical display of the Box space at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Festival this was the perfect use of this show concept where models were displayed like an art gallery and guests could chaisae around the room as they pleased.

The lace detail was my favourite especially in the soft powder blue dresses and the black lace leggings.

MBFWA: Day Two Outfit post



MBFWA Day Two: Flowers For A Vagabond

Flowers For A Vagabond collection show focused on detailing on black fabrications, signature silk printed black & white pattern and key highlight pieces in hot pink, red orange and yellow. Sequins were featured in a fully transparent sequin scale skirt, an most tinsel-like charcoal dress and as filly sequined cuff detailing in blouses.

Favourite looks were the conbo of the yellow jacket with transparent scale sequin skirt, the french cuff detail in the dress blouse and the black maxi dress with sheer skirting underneath.

Trend: So far a few designers have featured sheer fabrications in skirts in silk and mesh so do think this will be something continued through next Summer from the current sheer maxis in stores.
