Rebecca Paterson’s 33 Poets and Panache
Panache is from India designed by Rebecca Paterson. Rebecca also has an ‘obscure’ label called 33 Poets. I don’t know why it’s described as such. At the moment, 33 Poets is only available at Libertine (by Amanda McKenna & Co) in Mt. Lawley. I haven’t yet had a chance to visit Libertine although I had ...
Garth Cook – winner of Emerging Designer Award at STYLEAID 2009
Garth Cook’s previous campaign images didn’t grab me much. After talking to Paper Skye’s Kirsten, however, I thought I should meet with him.

I found Willem’s work was getting paired with Almond Tree at the backstage when two gorgeous girls from Behind the Monkey turned up with bags of Why Creations jewels. ...
STYLEAID 2009 Runway Photos – One Fell Swoop, United Constructions, ADDAM Design
I’m continuing on my STYLEAID 2009 runway report. I think I’ll complete it in four days but I’m also thinking of adding a break by covering a small exhibition by Central TAFE Fashion Textile graduate students which is on tomorrow.
