I'm not sure if
NEUW Denim were setting out to shock with a life model on a pedestal who could be seen the moment you entered the warehouse - a bit like when you landed on this page just now - or if they are simply making a statement about their
new FORM Body-Con (body couture) denim. I hope it's the later as last event I attended with nudity was that
Storm in Le Déjeuner en fourrure episode down at Cruise Bar.. Anyway as this was a range preview not exactly a party (that was the night before) we just got on with the job of checking out the new NEUW range and I can tell you right now, it's stretchy and it's tight tight tight, at least that is the impression I had on the night. And there is a very nice leather jacket in the range, similar to the one in the second shot down. So here we are, our beautiful artists model who is a real model - and some of the drawings people did of her, the jeans; and FORM capsule designer, Ana Vemic, who I put on the modelling plinth to photograph and asked a quick Q&A about the range -
stretchy body hugging and built to last - All GOOD! Continues with RAFFLES below.
Raffles Fashion Designers at The Design Residency.
So Wednesday evening
Vivienne and I hit The Design Residency Oxford Street to check out this years 'Showcase Designers' fashion which will be hitting the runway in the penultimate show at MBFWA at Carriageworks. So this was a little preview and some drinks and nibbles and an opening launch speech by the Lord Mayor of Sydney Clover Moore and Principal of Raffles, Steve Rawlinson. We mingled with everyone and learn't a little of the direction the different designers were taking and so on. I won't go into grand details! There will be another blog and pictures
AFTER the SHOW! Keep scrolling down, there's bloggers and party peeps and then my series of portraits of the designers, sorry if I missed you; at least everyone is in the group shot with Clover. If you cant wait to learn more, you can check out the designers at
The Design Residency from the 12th til the 29th of May.
