I’ve been thinking it’s a little boring this month after months of craziness late last year. I spoke too soon it seems.
First up, Andrea Wolf and other emerging designers are busy putting together applications for STYLEAID 2010 (Read STYLEAID 2009 coverage). It will be all happening as soon as weather cools down sometimes in August. Good luck, Andrea!
Anna Excell will be showcasing her fabulous designs at Skattwalk 2010 (photos from Skattwalk 2009) in a few days – Monday, 25 January.
Megan Osler, Miss Universe preliminary finalist, organised a fundraising event fashion and photography event at the Library.

There’s another charity show for ToyBox International, The Gallery Fashion Show on Thursday, 21 January 2010 at Kidogo Arthouse (view map). We’ll see lots of local talent such as Bernice Sara (Resort wear by Bernice Lloyd), Leanne Lim and Destin by Claire Loneragan. It’s specially exciting because I haven’t seen Claire work since her graduation in 2008.
WAAPA – ECU Graduate Exhibition 2009
Finally, Edith Cowan University’s fashion graduates are putting a show together called Bare – ECU Contemporary Fashion Graduate Show on Saturday, 23 January 2010 at 6:30 in ECU Building 5 (2 Bradford St. Mt Lawley - view map). Tickets are on sale for a bargain price of $15. Get them at Bille and Rose and Libertine. If you know of any ECU graduates they’ll be quite happy to sell you tickets!!I didn’t know anything about this until Emma from Xpress contacted me to take photos for her. It is refreshing to know that ECU didn’t try to squeeze into the super hectic graduate show period between November and December. Whether it was intentional or not, I do not know. I’m just glad that January is not going to be boring after all.
