  • One Dress, Two Ways

    One Dress, Two Ways

    Not usually one to gravitate towards red, I found myself drawn to the gorgeous print Ruby designer, Deanna Didovich dreamed up for her sister. Marina was attending a high profile wedding in Palm Springs and asked her sister to create something for her.

    The dress, appropriately named, the Marina Gown, became the basis for Ruby’s Spring ’16 Collection, No Drama. It was featured in Harper’s Bazaar along with a myriad of other publications. Rather than donning a full-length gown, which might have been slightly ostentatious even for Fashion Week, I opted for the shorter Verse 1.0 mini dress and decided to style it two ways. The collection was inspired by enduring female friendships and the endless support they bring. I’ve always held my female friendships very dear, both with my two sisters and my girl gang around the globe. On that note: thank you to my dear friend, Carmen Huter who took these photographs for me and continually inspires me both professionally and personally.

    Much like the collection itself, Verse 1.0 is certainly a no fuss option that transitions easily from daytime to night. Read more about the Spring ’16 collection.

    Thanks for reading! For my next post, I’ll be talking about what to do in between NZFW shows.

    This week is Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in Sydney, one of the most magical fashion events in the Southern Hemisphere. While I can’t sneak away to Oz until Friday, they’ve extended the event to include weekend shows, talks and events. Pretty cool, right? My friend Robyn of Anywhere I Roam arrived in Sydney yesterday and will be taking photos all week. Follow her on Instagram if you’re interested in seeing what the week has in store!

    I’ll be joining Robyn on Friday, Saturday and Sunday for a few runway shows, but I’m also ridiculously excited about the Blogger High Tea. Tiny sandwiches in a beautiful setting? Sign me up!

    From stalking Bella Hadid (just kidding…) to trying to fit in visits to all my favourite Sydney spots, follow me on Snapchat to see what I get up to! I’m currently in the midst of a packing frenzy and looking forward to wearing a few of my favourite Australian and New Zealand brands.

    See you soon, Sydney!
