FASHION EDITORIAL: Spring Racing outfits ft. Voodoo Hosiery

To celebrate the coming of the Spring Racing carnival, I have partnered with Voodoo Hosiery to create a fashion editorial piece called SECRET GARDEN which features 6 key spring racing looks. Together with my stylist, Emily Edwards, we wanted to show you ways in which you can incorporate the Voodoo Hosiery tights or socks into your spring racing outfit. If you are following the trends at fashion week, you will notice wearing socks with heels isn’t anything new, but a winning trend at the moment. Not only does socks look great with boots or open toed heels, they actually prevent your feet from breaking out with blisters. Well isn’t that good news?

MBFWA 2017 Alice Mccall runway highlights

Alice McCall returned to the Mercedes Benz Fashion Week runway this year to present her Resort 18 collection ‘Bon Bon’.

Her beautiful collection was all about being super tactile and ultra luxe fabrics, feathers, tinsel brocades, shirred lamés, cobweb laces and flocked tulles. I’m loving the gathered sleeve detail, and golden pleated baby doll dress!

 

 

MBFWA 2016 Alice McCall Presentation

Alice McCall transformed the lavish award winning restaurant, Porteno in Surry Hills into a live instillation of models lounging around in chantilly lace and cute rompers. Just think 60/70s, 1999 Galliano, or Opium Den styled sets to go with each outfit. Each look had “Alice” written all over it – it was playful, sensual, and feminine. The presentation felt like a live fashion shoot but minus the luxury of time and space. Basically all the shooters were given about 5 minutes to work with the models within a confined area, whilst the stylish onlookers were right behind us catching all the action. Well you know me, I love the challenge to think quickly on my feet and make the most of any situation to produce images that I am proud to publish. ‘

So here they are and I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed creating them. Thank you Electric Collective PR for having me xxx.

Alice McCall opens at Chadstone Fashion Capital

Today was the official launch of Alice McCall’s second store in Melbourne. So this morning I made my way to the Chadstone Shopping Centre to check out the new Alice McCall store and I was impressed. I knew I stepped into dangerous territory because I am in love with their latest collection, in particular their long red croquet dress with this amazing backless detail; the cute little playsuits in black, white, patterned and in different fabrication, and of-course their striking red and white jumpsuit that can’t be missed. Only the bold and daring would wear it and I can see it on the streets of Paris or New York during Fashion Week.

If you were to ask what’s my favourite out of the day, it would have to be the black and white croquet playsuit – an absolute winner for Derby Day coming up in 2 days!

Thank you Ali, and Electric Collective PR for having me xxx
