Minikem hats snapped at the Royal Ascot

25/6/2012

 
Last night on television, one of my hats was seen on 60 Minutes reporter, Liz Hayes -
Reporting Black Caviars win at the Royal Ascot races in England. Thrilled to see my work on tv, and the colour looked great on Liz!
Also sending a big congratulations out to the Black Caviar team, well done.

Launch Your Label Australia

15/6/2012

Hello again,
It's a very busy little studio right now, and the most exciting bit of news here, is that my Millinery Designs made the Top Ten in Launch your Label Australia!

I've just sent off a piece for judging for round two... Here's a peek at the item.

I went with one from my 'Divine Deco' theme, 'Apex' in Raspberry & Gunmetal grey Silks.  Apex stems from my look at Art Nouveau artists like Lalique and some entomology research when making some 'butterfly' hats.
For a fly, the lacewing is really quite a pretty little bug.

What's next for the competition? Despite a minor spanner in the works (thank-you laryngitis for stealing my voice, day 5 now, seriously), a little video is currently in the works, with or without my voice - it should be up here next week.

Gaga for Airbourne

21/6/2011

 


"...so don't know if you you heard, but..."

Apparently Lady Gaga likes to get naked and dance around to Aussie rockers Airbourne.

And after a bit of 'your people talk to my people', I found myself in a sewing frenzy, making a T-shirt/dress for guess who!!?

Yep, very exciting, I only wish I had more to to make something spectacular, but a day is a day is what it is. Exhale, It's en route now, a Custom modified Airbourne Tee-shirt, to the hands of Gaga herself - via DJ Starlight and courtesy of the Airbourne boys (and yours truly).

Here's a peek at what I came with.

Wish me luck X
