New Selvedge

New Selvedge issue has arrived with a nice little article on the The Endless Garment Exhibition. It features Issy Miyake's APOC piece which was exhibited. Theres a good reference to the APOC concept on
Design Boom. Apparently Dai Fujiwara's lecture at RMIT filled a theatre of 700 people. A complete sell-out. Overall the exhibition showcased a really broad range of designers using new machine technology. It closes this week, and there's been loads of reviews; but my favourite one is from Real Time Magazine. I think the machine component created a very interestng and different perspective for the viewer; and a very favourable one too.

Selvedge Magazine

Editorial in Selvedge MagazineJan/Feb issue; My mag arrived only this morning looking pretty tired, must have come across by sea, and on its arrival finally jammed in the letterbox folded in half with the fold across the 'do not bend' sticker. Must have had a tiff with my Napier postman while it sang - "I'm a long long way from the UK!"

End of Summer

1 March is officially beginning of Autumn; its usually my benchmark to get A/W deliveries out the door and into store. Will be posting Winter images soon; so goodbye Summer 09 collection - I was particularly fond of this one; silk and linen knits; both hand and machine. xx
