Australian Fashion Review Blog features fashion designers, label & brands from Australia and New Zealand. The online fashion blog is one of Australia’s largest online fashion resources, featuring hundreds of fashion designer profiles and designer collections. With a focus on Australian and New Zealand fashion, particularly designer men’s clothing, women’s clothing and fashion accessories (such as sunglasses, shoes and bags), the fashion blog is a one-stop fashion designer directory.
Although focused on the Australian and New Zealand fashion scene, the website includes a wide-array of fashion styles, including high-end designer brands and boutique street wear labels. Australian Fashion Review Blog features not only the top and famous designers known to many, but new and emerging brands that represent the future of the fashion industry.
The fashion blog features designer bio’s as well as hundreds of designer collections including menswear, womenswear, jewellery, designer sunglasses, footwear, bags as well as fashion news. Whether your simply after some information on your favourite fashion label, or whether your interested in checking on the latest range of winter or summer clothing, this website is for you.
The fashion blog is kept as up-to-date as possible and will generally feature both fashion fall (Autumn/Winter) and summer ranges (Spring/Summer) for each of the designers featured. Capsule collections, collaborations, unique lines and fashion news will also be posted pending our ability to keep up-to-date with the ever growing Australian and New Zealand fashion industries.
Navigating around Australian Fashion Review Blog
Its really quite simple – our homepage is like the index section of a book as it provides links to all the major sections of Australian Fashion Review Blog.
If you are a first-time viewer, you may want to go straight to our most popular section – the designers’ directory which is – as the name suggest – our fashion designer directory, an A to Z list of Australian and New Zealand fashion labels. The directory is one of the most comprehensive you will find, including fashion label bios and fashion collections for your viewing pleasure. In fact, we have one of the largest dedicated Australian and New Zealand directories in the world.
Other than the designers’ directory, we categorise our fashion posts and collections under a range of sections (see the links below). We also have a section dedicated to fashion interviews with designers (again see the links below).
The rest of the fashion blog is pretty self explanatory – you can always navigate to our homepage or other key pages using the header and footer links. Enjoy your fashion viewing and please feel free to comment (whether positive or negative) on any of the collections or fashion posts!
In a schedule of shows groaning with French luxury labels led by a new generation of hired hands who are happy to take the big consulting money and run, the Paris-based Australian Martin Grant stood out yesterday.
Eighteen months after turning down the creative directorship of the French luxury label Celine, Grant showed on the official schedule for the first time.
The big turn-up for his show confirmed that Grant's star is on the rise. Impressive pieces included the sporty marled silk jersey sack and tent dresses and silk chiffon evening wear series in scarlet red and near fluorescent lime green with trompe l'oeil fused pleating effect. But the number of dresses disappointed one longtime friend and client, Lee Radziwill, the sister of the late Jacqueline Onassis.
"I like his suits and coats the best and there weren't many of those, so I missed that," she said.
Chloe - who's been in creative limbo since the star designer Phoebe Philo left, and now awaits the rumoured arrival of Paolo Melin Anderson - showed a disappointing collection lacking sex appeal. Much of its tricked-up, fussy daywear took the season's coquettish baby-doll looks to almost Darrell Lea staff uniform proportions.
Jean Paul Gaultier and John Galliano have struck the right balance between consulting work and their own brands.
Gaultier showed his spring line for the French luxury brand Hermes: a collection of sculpted day suits and punk-look jewellery, ballet-look crossover tops and soft suede boleros, with a finale of diaphanous silk georgette full-length gowns with trompe l'oeil-effect lace overlay.
Galliano, Christian Dior's creative director, trumped even Dior in the celebrity stakes when it came to showing his signature line, with Janet Jackson and Hollywood lovebirds Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher, who squeezed hands for the duration of the show.
Sculpted white tailleurs were in counterpoint to garishly glam sequinned silk jersey cocktail dresses and a spectacular evening wear finale of bias-cut, draped, rolled and heavily embroidered silk jersey gowns. Offset against gargantuan, fanciful hats, the finale pieces were inspired by Faberge, Roy Lichtenstein and Jeff Koons, Galliano said. But they seemed more like a hallucinogenic version of the Ascot scene from My Fair Lady.
will be staging their first fashion exhibition during Australian Fashion Week. Featuring Alexi Freeman, BelleBika, Charmaine Baltis, Ghost & Lola [above], Kanchi, Lady, Limedrop, Mwasi Kitoko, Premonition, Smena and Vicious Threads, the exhibiution will showcase key pieces from their Spring Summer 2008/09 collections from the intimate and innovative space at Gaffa Gallery in Sydney’s Surry Hills.
