Loving Kirrily Johnston‘s AW10 collection, Cave Dwellers. The collection’s moody androgyny is harmoniously composed, with each piece complimenting the others perfectly. From withdrawn minimalism to heavy avante garde layering, this versatile collection has wide appeal despite it’s strong aesthetic convictions.
My major covets are the insanely beautiful pony-hair boots that Johnston is re-releasing this season in black, and the ridiculous shaggy cardigan/jacket – which I can confirm feels like a nomadic dream when worn.
Be still my beating heart.
I know they’ve been getting around, but when you see the images from Lang’s Fall 2010 RTW collection it’s easy to see why, when asked on Formspring which clothing brand I would wear exclusively for the rest of my life, I chose Helmut Lang.
Sleek, elegant, ageless – but with attitude.

“I’ve always been interested in how an object can be remembered and how that memory can be sustained and directed sculpturally, pulling things in and out of time, passing objects through the studio as a kind of filter returning them as new forms.” – Ricky Swallow
I finally made it down to the NGV today to see The Bricoleur exhibit by Victorian-born artist Ricky Swallow. While there were no boundary pushing pieces in the collection, I found it to be an inspiring (albeit small) exhibition of exceptionally crafted works. The Bricoleur ends on February 28th so I urge all Melbourne-based readers to head down to the NGV and check it out.
