Day two of this year’s MBFWA experience started and ended with my first show at 5pm – Manning Cartell.

I chose not to take time off from work this year to attend Fashion Week on a full-time basis, and a result of this is that I have had to be very selective about the shows I choose to see as I am only really able to attend just one show per day.

Anyways – back to the details; held at a truly industrial space that is The Shed at Carriageworks, Manning Cartell‘s SS13 collection, Fate & Chance featured a variety of design elements that ranged from futuristic aesthetics – structured and firm shiny fabrics – to more feminine components with sheer, layered netting and lace creating delicate-hard juxtapositions.

Fate & Chance is definitely a collection that I can envision myself picking not just a few, but multiple looks from – without any issues; however I’m not too sure my credit card would agree with me though…

Day one of MBFWA started off with a bang with the crowd buzzing (to say the least) at this year’s new venue – Carriageworks. Kicking off the week was Camilla and Marc who, also celebrating their 10th year anniversary this year opened MBFWA with their spring/summer 2013 runway show: Concentric.

Concentric was inspired by the layers of the Russian Matryoska Doll, citing parallels between the layered dolls and the brand’s own layered past; conveying a sense of harmonious interplay between it’s history and the brand as it is now. The collection is a vivid, textual, sharp showcase of Camilla and Marc‘s signature styles and silhouettes, updated with a modern viewpoint.

Over the last 10 years, Camilla and Marc have shaped their brand into being one of Australia’s most coveted; and I’m sure that there are very few doubts that they will continue to do so in the coming years. Congratulations C&M!

“Some fairy tales end with the girl marrying the prince… some start there.” – Diane von Furstenberg and Yvan Mispelaere

On the evening of the 24th of October, thanks to Westfield – I was lucky enough to be in the presence of one of fashion’s most iconic women: Diane von Furstenberg.

Ms. Furstenberg made her first trip to Australia in 31 years to launch the DVF penthouse at Hayman Island in Queensland’s Whitsundays however, she also put on a very special runway show in Sydney’s Westfield showcasing her Spring 2013 collection, Palazzo.

Check out the video to get a glimpse of the final walk through of the show, and you might even get a look at the beautful Ms. DVF herself!
