parade//NZFashionWeek10 - day 1

here are some quick shots of Kathryn Wilson's shoes, brilliant! A rhomping soundtrack helped make for a superb show too.
I overheard many people right after the show discussing how they could get their hands on some and how amazing they thought the shoes were. I'm inclined to agree with them. I'm not a heels wearing guy (1 inch on my boots is quite enough), but I have already considered purchasing some of Kathryn's latest. Just for display, enjoyment, Amy to wear...

sorry for poor quality of images. (Almost) No zoom on my little camera, as I'm here to Usher not take photos :P










NZFW has started wonderfully//

Burberry is usually a personal favorite of fashion week (London or Paris) and I will review their collection here once I have chance to.

I am rather busy this week ushering at NZFashionWeek. Yay! But will fit some international viewing in somewhere along side documenting some of our amazing local talent. I hope the standard is high and consistent, I feel NZ Fashion needs that///

interest// SWATCH+






Swatch watch: Object of the 80's and icon of post modernism, the original Swatch watch is, to my eyes, still yummy to look at, and flipping "cool" to have.

I have a small wish list of Swatch watches. Both retro originals and new.
Certain original styles can now fetch some hefty hefty prices and websites such as swatch and beyond and Squiggly's, who sell vintage and new swatches, have some very cool and rare items on them.

Here are some of the swatch watches that have stood out to me.



A very cool site is Shmid Muller.


pavement// photo shoot




Friend and fellow design student Sam Ralph and I were recently asked by friends to be involved in a photoshoot for Dunedin's newest expression rag, Marrow magazine

this turned out to be super fun, we braved cold winds and dizzying heights (rather higher than the bridge on recent NZ's topmodel, though slightly more stable), and had loads of fun taking photos!

I cannot post the resulting images until the magazine comes out at the end of the month, but untill then, here are some teasers :)
