Wow. So Fashion is like, so hectic aiiight.
Jenna and I started the day with a mini freak out session at headquarters, followed by my awe over her amazing boots! Then we busted ass down to the Overseas Passenger Terminal and proceeded to be told the wrong directions for everywhere. Day one not so smooth, with the seating allocation system running amuck and having no idea whether we can see the shows or not! Missed Camilla and Marc but by all accounts it was a sexy, strong collection. Bec and Bridge followed and was utterly gorgeous! I am obsessed with the tasselled wristbands every model was sporting. So sexy and chic with elements from past collections all plastered together, then polished up to something shiny and new but still with the familiar Bec and Bridge rock ‘n’ roll girl flair.
Really punchy colours, in wearable tones that will be in my wardrobe in a few months. Especially the split sleeve blazers. Way kewl. Music by Santogold, Ladyhawke and La Roux. Very awesome collection and killer show, even on tippy toes surrounded by a throng of people. I managed to steal some candy from a gift bag. Foraging for food seems so animalistic but at Fashion week, that’s all you can hope for!
Then we pissed around looking for answers to our seating allocation problem, only to be told by the charming young man at the desk, we will have had to RSVP to “Ginger and Spice” if we wanted seats. Damn I thought scary, sporty and baby put me on the list?
We snuck into Ginger and Smart after the show had started and enjoyed the very chill and sexy music that didn’t distract from the beautiful clothes… but must have distracted one young model and she took a trip and might not be ready to walk again until after fall. Models eating shit on the catwalk is what us ugly people live for.
Flair is the word of the day here. While some has been in abundance, most is pretty ABD and quite tired. But hey, everyone is in his or her Monday best to mark the occasion and I have never seen so much make up and high heel action before lunchtime in my life!
So many crazy outfits and chitter chattering fashion types pouting around The Rocks, almost uniformly head to toe in black.
Outfit wise, we have seen a lot of the “it” girl style, characterised by black, layers, leathers, leggings, intense platform booties and heels and long “I don’t give a fuck but this took three hours” hair.
The boys are busting out the very best of street style fresh from the blogs of the whole wide world. Light denim, ripped denim, double denim, “vintage” “opshop” big words being tossed around.
We have been snapping the street style, as have ever other cutie with an SLR. It is quite fun! Highlights today include Ms Fitz, Mary and Phoenix and Nina from Anthem
Shit dudes, its only lunchtime.
Peace out and wish us luck!
CA and Jenna
