Fashion Week Corner Shops

I went in a more fun direction for the corner shops for fashion week (as always). To show our support for young australian designers i wanted to showcase how many we actually stock instore..
So we jokingly held a 'miss corner shop 2009' competition with our mannequins.. this was a lot of fun to make and put in, all the way from the kitschy signage to the fake mascara running down the face of our winner:)
Happy Fashion Week! xx

Fashion Week Double Bay

Here is our fashion week display in Double Bay..
This window celebrates the buyers detailed driven vision. Its about how they bring all sorts of labels together in our stores (and on our mannequins) styling a woman head to toe from a multitude of designers, by buying with a cohesive vision.
(these are from weeks 1 and 2 :))

Fashion Week MLC

busy busy again with the onset of fashion week in sydney:)
Our windows this year were all about the buying journey Belinda and the buyers go through. They celebrate the hours of selection and the stylistic vision of the designer's collections and the customer experience of all this instore.

First up is our MLC store - these WONDERFUL drawings were done by Deborah Pak in white chalk on the black chalkboard walls.. celebrating the looks of Dries Van Noten, Givenchy, Ann Demeulemeester and Bottega Veneta.
My gratitude to you Miss Pak xx

talk to me...

i'm starting up lecturing @ the whitehouse again tomorrow after a 2 week break..
yay..

what to do with a loved up heart...

So we decided that we liked the heart at the corner shop so much we wouldn't part with it just yet..
personally i like this as much as the first window! rays of love for all!
