Australians are making a big splash in fashion this season.
Josh Goot, Richard Nicoll, and Jayson Brundson all showed strong collections for spring, Catherine McNeil is on every major runway, and Gemma remains a campaign queen.
And now we’re charmed by down under designer Fleur Wood.
We can’t get enough of the way she combines highly tactile materials, so what could be just a simple layered outfit becomes an adventure in texture!
It’s been a while since we braved the world of velvet, but seeing this combination of high-waisted velvet skirt and satin camisole got us back on board.
We love the idea of wearing the luxe materials in a laid-back thrown-together outfit, so it doesn’t look too much like a costume from a Merchant Ivory flick. You know?
–ALISON COOL
