    WAITING

    Ma n y w o m e n a c r o s s t h e w o r l d m a y s e e

    themselves reflected in this:

    Waiting for their men to come home.

    Waiting for friends to come over.

    Waiting for the phone to ring.

    Waiting for dreams to come true.

    Waiting for anything ... to just happen!

    Its a daily scene en vie (in life). However, the truth

    is sometimes youve got to stop waiting and take the

    initiative; make the phone call, visit your friends and

    stop waiting for dreams to just come true, MAKE them

    happen!

    W e v e l e f t t h e e r a o f b l a c k a n d w h i t e . N o w i s a

    time when women can be independent, successful,

    fashionable, sexy and smart. We dont have to wait for

    anyone anymore; we can make it happen ourselves!

    This editorial was shot on location in

    Wassenaar, The Netherlands, by the

    talented Remon van den Kommer, an

    up-and-coming Dutch photographer

    k n o w n f o r h i s u n i q u e s t y l e a n dcreativity. He used only natural light

    for these shots, which adds to the

    sincerity of the mood and maintains

    the honesty of the story they tell.

    The story is compelling, capturing

    the hearts and minds of the audience.

    Spain might be famous for its Mediterranean

    culture, flamenco and amazing food, but let's not

    forget that it is also one of the leading countries when

    it comes to fashion! Madrids Mercedes-Benz Fashion

    Week celebrates the talent of established Spanish

    brands as well as up-and-coming creators, and for this

    Spring Summer 2013 edition, the emblematic capital

    proved to be a fantastic source of inspiration.

    Spanish designers excel when it comes to summery

    creations, which often lead to colourful patterns and

    sensuality. Designers used the country's traditions in a

    modern way to perfectly match the current trends, all

    the while coming up with innovative and high quality

    outfits. Etxeberria kicked off the week with a haut

    en couleur menswear collection strongly inspired by

    Andaluca, one of Spain's most emblematic regions, in

    which he modernized traditional bullfighter suits.

    The week started with highly commercial collections

    a n d s l o w l y m o v e d t o w a r d s m o r e c r e a t i v e a n d

    original presentations, gathering the country's most

    influential designers along with young couturiers.

    R o b e r t o V e r i n o , H a n n i b a l L a g u n a a n d F r a n c i s

    Montesinos transformed the catwalk into a flamenco

    dance floor on which the models presented ref ined

    floor length dresses in bright red, rich green and deep

    p u r p l e . B r o c a d e s w e r e f e a t u r e d e v e r y w h e r e t h i s

    season and formed a part of the SS13 trends, along with

    the graphic prints presented by some of the younger

    and more daring designers.

    Maya Hansen and her Mexican-inspired collection,

    Teresa Helbigs embellished pink and white dresses

    and Angel Schlessers 50s oversized dot prints and

    large stripes brought a vintage air to this edition, an

    aspect which was reinforced by the lightness and fluid

    movement of all those flowing sheer dresses shown and

    XL hats shyly covering the models faces.

    The monochromatic looks of The 2nd Skin Co, amazing

    deep-navy leather tops and dresses balanced with

    golden belts by Juanjo Oliva, casual elegance brought

    by TCN and masterfully tailored overalls proposed by

    Davidelfin were more than enough to convince us: we

    will be back next season!

    P

    erth Fashion Festival 2012 (PFF) opened in style

    with a VIP show from One Fell Swoop design duo

    Nikolina Ergic and Daniel Romanin. The glamorous

    pair presented an archive of trans-seasonal signature

    garments. Their design philosophy is simple: make

    clothes that are feminine and desirable, combining

    tailoring with draping to create a shape that is equally

    sensitive and feminine as it is modern and minimal.

    VIP guests, including En Vie, enjoyed sumptuous

    canaps and premium Australian wine.

    The week-long fashion festival featured international

    stars "dropping in" to get a look at the latest up-and-

    coming talent from Australia as well as established,

    already-loved labels. Mel B, ex-Spice Girl currently

    living in Sydney and appearing as a judge on Australias

    "The X Factor," made her second appearance in as

    many years, picking up pieces from Wheels & Dollbaby,

    Zhivago and Ange Lang.

    Highlights of the week included Bett y Tran (fresh from

    NY Fashion Week) with her tailored, structural chic;

    Empire Rose proving whimsy and theatrical themes

    are still in vogue, shown in vibrant colours, feathers,

    sequins and hand-dyed silks and French Chantilly lace;

    Swimwear Central with Bikini Atoll wowing audiences

    with clever, flattering cuts and vivid all-season colours;

    Ange Lang, whose classic creations were seen at this

    years Cannes Film Festival; Garth Cook whose sharp

    lines, skilled pattern-making and class make him one to

    look out for; and the amazing Flannel show.

    Tickets sold out for Flannel within minutes of going

    on sale; the unique show did away with the traditional

    runway as Perths top models presented designer

    Kristy Lawrences Neronis Collection, styled by former

    Vogue fashion editor Meg Gray.

    It was a romantic and decadent evening of fashion, food

    and wine.

    On a n u n u s u a l l y w a r m S e pt e m b e r m o r n i n g ,

    t h e d o o r s o f K o b e W o r l d H a l l o pe n e d ; a t

    exactly 11:30, they were flooded with thousands of

    fashionistas, all buzzing with excitement for Kobe

    Collection Autumn/Winter 2012.

    Along with guest appearances by famous Japanese stars,

    the audience was delighted by a variety of booths where

    sponsors offered lotteries and samples and introducednew products such as the latest smartphones. Hagen-

    Dazs in particular endeared themselves this year again

    with delightful gifts for visitors.

    Ticketholders also gained entrance to the neighbouring

    building where they had the opportunity to enjoy

    sampling beauty products and getting their hair done

    by hairdressers from famous salons.

    Right from the very beginning there was a very clear

    French theme, especially evident in the wide variety of

    berets, which could be found in nearly every collection.

    Blondy did it best, presenting them in almost every

    colour, which will hopefully bring some life to the

    coming dreary season.

    De s p i t e m a n y s i m i l a r i t i e s a m o n g t h e c o l l e c t i o n s ,

    there were also some striking differences between

    brands. On the one hand Lily Brown bewitched us with

    bright colours and crazy skirts and on the other hand

    ARMANI EXCHANGE slipped in formal wear, which

    oozed coolness and elegance. There was a lot of variety

    in every collection; you could find everything from soft

    and loud colours to stark black and white combinations.

    G e n e r a l l y t h e r e w e r e p a t t e r n c o l o u r e d a c c e n t s ,

    highlighting shoes, bags or other accessories, whichwill bring vitality and brightness to the soft autumn

    and the grey winter. On the other side, FRAY I.D shined

    out with their "colours" and their fashion; since they

    produced their collection entirely in black, white and

    other neutral tones, they really stood out in contrast

    to the previous brands. They were also pret ty much the

    only label with gloves in their collection, which could

    be very useful facing the freezing cold winter. Their

    fashion was also better adapted to the coming season

    by using long skirts instead of short ones.

    With all of the dramatic and animated collections

    pacing up and down the runway, the day flew past. We

    were kept on the edge of our seats until we glanced

    down at our watches and were shocked to realise it was

    over. Heading back, tired but happy, we couldn't help

    wondering what they've got in store for us next year.

    See you in Kobe, fashionistas!

    broad cross-section of culture and individuality. VFW

    was a dynamic and inspiring experience! Each day

    bustled with excitement. Front of house was buzzing

    with energy and style, not to mention the fabulous

    array of shoes, whilst the backstage was frantic at

    times. The selections featured on the VFW runway

    were diverse.

    Some of the weeks highlights included beautiful pieces

    by South Africas much loved, award-winning designer

    Gert-Johan Coetzee. Mexican designer RG Sanchez

    took the audience on a 1960s Mexican vacation with

    convertible, brightly coloured pieces. The Ugandan

    designer Charles Kasozi mesmerised the crowd with his

    unique collection, bringing African fabrics to the mainstream. Farida Lalji , influenced by her Muslim faith,

    created fresh and elegant, Indian-inspired gowns for

    modern women.

    JungEun Lee from South Korea brought the house

    down with her provocative Lava Woman collection.

    Bold exaggerated pieces pulsed down the runway in

    dazzling lights and to energetic music! Gretchen Jones

    presented a ready-to-wear collection of feminine

    pieces, gliding down the runway in silks blended with

    colourful, fun prints reminiscent of 1970s romance.

    US designer George Bezhanishvili showcased relaxed

    silhouettes with elegant styling. His collection ended

    the event on a graceful note, adding to what was a truly

    inspirational week for fashion!

    I H A V E S E E N T H E F U T U R E O FJAPANESE FASHION AND I CAN SAYW I T H C O N F I D E N C E T H A T T H E R EARE EXCITING TIMES AHEAD!

    Every year, the bright-eyed students at Osakas

    Mode Gakuen Fashion Institute put on a high-

    concept runway show, HAL-MODE FESTIVAL, to

    present fresh design ideas and promote the creative

    ideals of the school. This years collections challenged

    the traditional staples of Japanese fa shion, favouring

    f o r m o v e r f u n c t i o n ; t h e s t u d e n t s a t t h i s y e a r s

    Mode show approached their designs from pure

    abstraction and created garments that completelydefy classification, more like wearable symbols or

    metaphors than mere fashion.

    Each group of students was assigned a unique theme

    based on cultural elements from across the Asian

    subcontinent, playing up the events overall theme of A

    new era in Asia the future of Asia is the future of the

    world. However, the themes were not as simple as merely

    incorporating specific patterns, materials, or colour

    palettes; varying greatly in complexity and purpose, the

    themes ranged from the light-hearted and fun to the

    hopeful and idealistic to the downright provocative.

    Japans own theme was based on its unique anime/

    cosplay subculture and the collection that followed

    was one of the true highlights of the show. The outfits

    were perfectly matched from head to toe, including

    b a g s , w i t h i n t r i c a t e g e o m e t r i c d e t a i l s a p p l i e d i n

    o v e r l a i n p a t c h w o r k a n d a b r i g h t c a r t o o n c o l o u r

    palette, form-fitting or in exaggerated silhouettes.

    The only single-word description that comes to mind

    is awesome. Another noteworthy group was the

    eco-themed collection of garments that incorporated

    discarded plastic bottles caps in the designs. The

    textures created by the hundreds, possibly thousands,

    of caps covered by paint or form-fitting synthetic

    material were something to behold; they covered the

    surfaces of high-collared jackets, dresses and long

    veils, were strung on wire and braided into skirts and

    provided design continuity attached to boots, belts and

    drawstrings. The multi-scale array of textures worked

    well with the cold, futuristic colour palette made up ofblacks, whites, silvers and metal-tones.

    There were simply too many interesting themes and

    collections to mention all of them here. However, I

    would like to note a few more: The Philippines banana

    power makes the world healthy and fashionable, The

    source of happiness: introducing Bhutanism to the

    world, The worlds first Olympics held in an Islamic

    capital makes a positive economic impact on the world,

    and Transsexuals take freedom into their own hands:

    beauty and strength spread throughout the world.

    The event was unlike other fashion shows, with throngs

    of students cheering for their classmates designs and

    mimicking the unique runway choreography that each

    collection presented. The atmosphere was altogether

    full of youth and, more importantly, hope.

    T

    he Spring/Summer Kansai Collection made quite

    an impression on us this past February, and wesimply couldn't refuse the invitation to attend the

    Autumn/Winter show and be wowed all over again!

    The scale of the event was even grander this time, with

    more booths, more performers, more sponsors and of

    course more fashion. The overarching theme of the

    runway blocks seemed to be "make your own rules." It

    was "out with the old and in with the new," but done

    in a way that respectfully paid tribute to the long

    established seasonal trends by incorporating elements

    of the old standards into the new blended designs.

    Joy Rich threw off the chains of the traditional A/W

    palette, presenting youthful exuberance in brilliantly

    coloured prints complemented by winter fleeces,

    knit hats and American letter jackets. Duras Ambient

    shifted the mood with a beautiful array of seasonal

    evening wear, mixing bare shoulders and short skirt

    lengths with furs, leather outerwear and elbow length

    gloves; the cool combinations will definitely turn h eadswhen out on the town this season. Black By Moussy

    gave us classy autumn casual for the modern woman,

    s t i c k i n g t o a m o r e t r a d i t i o n a l p a l e t t e a n d s t a p l e

    seasonal materials such as wool, denim, leather and

    fur; it was a welcome anchor amid the trend upheaval.

    Beams delivered an eclectic collection somewhere

    between the youth of Joy Rich and the sophistication

    of Black By Moussy, pairing print bow ties and blazers

    with ultra-short denim and ankle boots, fur stoles with

    girly dresses and oversized one-piece sweaters with

    felt fedoras.

    Kansai Collection 2012 A/W celebrated the freedom

    of fashion, bending rules, pushing boundaries and

    expanding on longstanding seasonal trends. The show

    was as exciting as it was unpredictable. And o n the

    runway, it was "ANYTHING GOES!"

    With a new location in the stylish Xintiandi

    district and a new roster of cutting edge labels,

    Shanghai Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2013 had a

    positive new buzz.

    The week started off with beautifully crafted gowns

    f r o m Do l l b y Do r i a n H o . L a t e r t h a t d a y , L o n d o n

    designer Nathan Jenden gave us exactly what we were

    looking for, detailed and perfectly executed designs in

    stark black and white a hot trend for 2013.

    Over the course of the week we saw great collections

    from Judy Hua, Stella Lam, Content, Helen Lee and La

    Vie. We also received an invitation to Vera Wangs

    exclusive runway show and party; a little far from

    the city centre, but it was totally worth the trip. She

    showed a selection of her coveted wedding gowns

    as well as some more casual pieces with elements

    o f d e c o n s t r u c t i o n , w h i c h g a v e t h e g a r m e n t s a

    youthful feel without compromising Veras trademark

    sophistication.

    We were pleasantly surprised by all of the changes at

    this years fashion week. The range of collections was

    eclectic and the presentations were stunning. The

    labels, sponsors, presenters, and attendees were all

    international, but the atmosphere was totally Shanghai.

    SHE AWOKE WITH A START.

    An empty field of tall grass, then a flash, her standing

    in the middle of the field wearing a white lace dress

    holding a cage. Flash, the cage disappears and in its

    place a nest of blue eggs. The moment she tries to

    bring the nest closer to her beating heart, flash and the

    dream is done.

    At first the dream was laughable, even ignorable, but

    with each passing night her dream would increase in

    intensity. Until one morning, she shook her self awake.

    Craving coffee and a chance to shake the angst of her

    recurring dream, she stepped outside her apartment

    into the cool morning chill.

    She walked past an abandoned garden surrounded by a

    makeshift fence of rotting wood. Suddenly, a bluebird

    flew down and landed on the gate. Perhaps it was

    madness brought on by her dreams or perhaps it was

    the one time in her life that she felt sure of something,

    but in that moment, she followed the bird. Through the

    trees streaming with the morning light, past the wood

    which smelled of dampened earth, and into the field of

    tall grass. Franticall y running after the bluebird until

    she reached the edge of the grass, and the bluebird

    disappeared. Exhausted, she sat on the bank of a pond

    and stared at her reflection in the lily-strewn surface.

    Your future is not clear, it ebbs and flows like moving

    water. You are afraid of the moving water. You must

    learn that you can still the waters of your life.

    She awoke with a start.

    If a picture is worth a thousand words then Alaskan

    fashion photographer Vanessa Powell is an avid,

    thoughtful and passionate storyteller.

    From a dramatic moment caught between ethereal

    and soft natural light from above and jagged rocks

    that mirror the shape of a silhouette covered in an

    edgy emerald green sequined frock, to a statuesque

    body highlighted by light pouring through an opening

    in a dark underground tunnel, a story unfolds. There is

    mystery behind her smoky eyes as she leans against the

    colourful graffiti-laden wall with her messy platinum

    blonde hair, drenched in black sequined cropped tights,

    a black low V-top with detailed sleeves and ankle-high

    black leather boots with silver fringe on the cuff; a sortof modern day flapper-esque rocker chick. Who is she

    and where has she been?

    The owner of Thousand Words Photography has a taste

    for the dramatic and coveys this in her photography,

    which is full of texture, emotion, unique angles and

    delightful detail. Taking in her work one can see how

    much thought and care goes into every completed

    frame, whether its portraits, family photography or

    fashion shoots. Powell, whose grandmother was a

    sculptor and father is also a photographer, focuses on

    capturing her subjects personality while featuring

    wide-open Alaskan settings when possible. I have a

    constant and unreasonable need to chase the light. It's

    in my blood, says Powell. Her sensitivity to light/dark

    contrasts and her ability to connect her subjects to

    their surroundings makes her every photograph a true

    work of art.

    GOLDDUST

    Jenifer Hernandez is a young American photo-

    grapher who originally focused on landscape and

    flower photography, but now shows us her pa ssion by

    capturing the essence of the fashion world with her

    digital camera.

    She has never forgotten her mothers advice to use a

    clean background in order to enhance the subject,

    and this has become a personal signature in her work.

    In the photo series Gold Dust, the garments are

    brought to life in a very simple but effective way; the

    plain background combined with the digital effect of

    movement keep the eye focused on the details of the

    items portrayed.

    Before realising that fashion photography was her

    dream, Jenifer started with portraits of her daughter.

    She enjoyed the creative process of it and decided

    to enrol in the New York Institute of Photography. In

    order to practice what she had learned, she started

    networking with a modelling site and now Jenifer

    works with models, designers, make-up artists and

    stylists from all over the world.

    Fresh out of NYIP with her second certificate, Jenifers

    portfolio already includes collaborations with fashion

    magazines such as Vogue Italia and FCM Magazine.

    Jenifers aim is to seize every opportunity to create

    art and meet people who share the same passion for

    fashion; she loves bringing artists together for a photo

    shoot to display their work incorporated in hers. With

    such a passion for collaboration, we can expect to see

    more diverse work from this up-and-coming artist.

    DUFFYJEWELLERY

    While you might not know Duffy Jewellery by

    name, with pieces appearing everywhere from

    Harper's Bazaar to GQ Style to draped from Janet

    Jacksons neck and wrists on the cover of Wonderland,

    you can be sure youve seen his work aroun d.

    The myriad metallic skulls paired with a stylistically

    raw construction makes it tempting to describe Duffy

    Jewellerys aesthetic as gothic, but the term falls

    short of adequately capturing the sheer intricacy and

    master craftsmanship involved in the vast majority of

    his work. Hig hly ornate pieces, l ike his spectacular

    heavily oxidized sterling silver swan ring embellished

    with an extraordinary array of black diamonds and 18ct

    gold detailing, reveals an aesthetic that privileges f orm

    over function.

    Indeed Duffy confirms this suspicion when expressing

    his appreciation for the lavish sculptural work of the

    Renaissance. He is especially enamoured of celebratedItalian artist and goldsmith Benvenuto Celinni, whose

    work he describes as more about embellishing a practical

    object, like a salt cellar, to the point where its function

    essentially becomes secondary to the pieces ornamental

    presence. I work like this with pieces such as the swan

    ring the sculpture almost comes first, before the

    consideration that it will be worn on the body.

    I t s n o t a t a l l s u r p r i s i n g t o l e a r n t h a t a l o t o f h i s

    s i l v e r s m i t h c o u r s e w o r k a t u n i v e r s i t y i n v o l v e d

    making clock houses given the plenitude of elaborate

    detail in his work, which stylistically resembles the

    e n c a s e m e n t s o f m a n y o f t h e f i r s t c l o c k s w o r n a s

    jewel lery , suc h as the pocke t wat ches of t he Ba roqu e

    p e r i o d . I n f a c t , m a n y E u r o p e a n s c a r r i e d p o c k e t

    watches shaped like skulls in the 1600s as a daily

    reminder to appreciate life and their own individual

    m o r t a l i t y . S e v e r a l o f h i s p i e c e s a l s o d e a l d i r e c t l y

    with Baroque themes related to morality, including

    necklaces made from recycled ivory piano keys that

    have vital organs and words like life and death

    e n g r a v e d o n t h e m , a s w e l l a s a s e t o f n e c k l a c e s

    composed of bone-shaped pieces.

    However, Duffy Jewellery evokes a sense of a bygone

    era not only in terms of its aesthetic, but also with

    respect to its method of production. Contrary to the

    majority of modern jewellery designers, whom typically

    will outsource their work to be made by manufacturers,

    each piece of Duffy Jewellery is handmade by Duffy

    h i m s e l f i n h i s E a s t L o n d o n w o r k s h o p w i t h l o c a l l y

    sourced materials. Everything is hand-carved so I

    treat it like small sculptures rather than creating a piece

    of jewellery. Even more impress ive is that most of his

    skills, including stone setting, polishing, wax carving and

    engraving, are self-taught.

    His independent approach is so thorough that it evenencroaches into his attitude toward participating in the

    demanding schedule of the fashion industry. While he

    does release some of his work as part of collections,

    the collections are neither thematic nor seasonal,

    as this sort of structure doesnt allow him the space

    necessary for his creative process. How anyone can

    actually be creative within [those constraints] I find

    fascinating. You dont have a chance to think. Ill think

    about something for a year and then put it in the back

    of my mind and then maybe it will come back again

    another year later and Ill make it then.

    Duffy is clearly a designer who works in his own time,

    in more ways than one. However, when the product is

    jewelle ry that s as rem arkable as this, I thin k its p retty

    safe to say that its worth the wait.

    RECIPE

    1) Run the grapes through hot water and peel them,

    then place them in the freezer so as to make sure

    they do not stick together (grapes with edible skins

    do not need to be peeled).

    2) Cover the cream cheese in plastic wrap and

    microwave for 30-60 seconds to keep it soft.

    3) Add sugar to the cream cheese and stir, then sift in

    flower and mix well.

    4) Add beaten egg to the mix, then pour in cream and

    strain with a colander.

    5) Pour into the mold and sprinkle frozen grapes (a

    shallow casserole dish is also okay).

    6) Bake for approximately 30 minutes in an oven

    preheated to 160 degrees Celsius.
