Ray of Light
Always one to challenge taste levels and push the conceptual element of his designs, Christopher Kane comes through with the goods again with his 2012 resort range.
I love the evolution of ideas that unfolds in this collection.
Prism
white light
shadow
reflection
rays
......lace?
As unusual and unique as his styling is, I think there are some really great commercial pieces in here (well you would hope so seeing as that is the whole point of the cruise and resort collections)
Having said that, I have my fingers crossed for a dress up party soon so I can go as rainbow bright... I think I may have found the perfect costume.

La Paz
These are some pics I took in the city of La Paz on a recent trip to Bolivia. I found the dress of the local women pretty cool.
The appropriation of items such as the Spanish Pollera skirt, poncho and English Bowler Hat worn with traditional Andean textiles by the Aymara women has become a symbol of pride in their indian heritage.
As you can see, I found the gorgeous bright colours in the woven textiles (often used as bags) particularly eye catching.

Girls on Film
Have you noticed the growing popularity of short films for fashion?
Designers are spreading their wings and collaborating with stylists, artists, and film makers alike in a new and now affordable medium for launching their ranges and establishing a stronger brand identity.
Consumers are increasingly turing to the web as a of source of direction and interaction. The need to spend precious dollars on advertising space no longer applies. Using the free medium of cyber space brands can direct that spending to develop more creative and engaging ways to communicate with their customers.
This season, Australian fashion labels such as Lover, Shakuhachi and new comer Emma Mulholland adopted the emotive medium of film to encapsulate the creative direction of their labels for the season.
Lover: A Dance for One
Emma Mullholland: Queen Aurelia
Shakuhachi
Collaboration across creative fields is becoming key to engage with customers on all new levels and personify a brand in a way product alone cannot. I think it is safe to say we can expect more fashion film projects to come.
Here are some of my favourites. Acne's Concrete Jungle was directed by Daniel Askill with creative direction from Michelle Jank. But be warned - the haunting beauty of this stop motion film can leave you feeling a little dizzy.
This quirky little thriller was produced for the launch of Lanvin's Collection for H&M.
