LOVEWANT issue one was a small print run and an immediate sell-out. Now issue two, from this week, will be stocked in selected bookstores and newsagencys across Australia and time starts ticking by 2 seconds at a time during the lead up to Christmas so hurry. Also there is now a LOVEWANT blog to wet [...]
When I first left Uni I worked at Rose Chong Costumes. This is where it all began. My love for dressing up and the start of my now extinct fashion label. This is also the time I went to my first Biennale and was blown away by Ricky Swallow. The kid on the BMX I [...]
Jess Chatterton the designer for an amazing new label Lubanci, hails from Brisbane and is a little hard to track down slash google. This Parisian shoot is poetic nudity dodging and missing thorns whilst running through a rose garden. Seeing this lookbook of the newcomer on Canvas made me check twice she hailed from the [...]
I first got hole in the knitted jumper wind of Emma Rea from Style Lines who introduced me to her whimsical poetic range “Houses Of Holy”. Emma’s latest range “Raven” is both tom-boy tough and theatrical. “Raven” shows Rea is far from a one-hit-wonder and a new force coming from sunny Brisbane. Fluid silhouettes in all [...]

Georgie graduated from the same Melbourne University I got my square black mortar board from, RMIT, and has just stunned me with her defined lines and muted tones. This model looks like she stepped out of one of my top ten movies, the virgin [...]
The swedes have arrived. First with Acne in the Gpo now they have taken over the amazing space which was once Don’t Come and now is Somewhere. The wooden shelves and the dungeon like change rooms you would do anything to enter. I love the grand space and the unabashedly patriotic blonde LP covers sitting [...]
Last week my friend Lynnette and I lined up behind a silver roped up area on a red carpet to enter one at a time for the Miss Louise shoe sale. Lynnette is all about Margiela and a very black colour scheme, I am a rainbow bright vintage meets Christopher Kane dresser. We appreciate each [...]
Sometimes my shyness gives me hours of wishful retrospect. Today this is true. I worked on Saturday, usually torturous but as a surprise to me I got to semi meet Jarvis Cocker. As most of my work goes I can’t actually speak of why, when or how as I will or could be sued. Annoying [...]
