Under the Blue Moon: Lunamorph Gothic Fashion Parade

Last week, The Factory theatre at Enmore was host to the Lunamorph Gothic Fashion Parade. The event was a showcase of alternative fashions of designers from the Enmore/Newtown area.

The Fashion parade was part of the Under the Blue Moon Festival, a celebration of all things ‘darkly beautiful’ which took place from 27th September to 6th October this year. I’m disappointed I’m only now finding out about this event, I would have loved to have gone to the fashion show. I find the culture utterly fascinating, and the fashions are quite amazing. All that corsetry and lace, I think its beautiful.

"The audience can enter the world of the fascinating, fetishistic and fiery, the romantic and risqué, subversive and sexy" says Liz Evanov, producer. "It will be a true morph of alternative fashion and performance where fashion comes alive on the catwalk in a way not seen before in Sydney… burlesque divas and piratical fiends are all part of the viewing pleasure."

My latest eBay bargains

Oh, how I love eBay. I recently got some gorgeous dresses and skirts delivered, I’m so impressed with them all, much better than I expected. The weather is just right at the moment to be able to wear them too )

This skirt is my favourite of the bunch…

J’adore Dior!

Everytime I walk past the QVB I see a big picture of the most gorgeous watch I’ve ever seen.

Dior Watch

Isn’t it just divine? Perhaps you’d like to buy it for me for a Christmas present, it’s only $25,750 ;o)

Looking forward to the Spring trends

I love the changing seasons, and I also love that the fashion trends change with the seasons! What better excuse to go shopping?

What’s going to be hot this spring?

• Floral & retro prints
• Fluoro & bright colours
• Maxi or mini dresses
• Gladiator style shoes

What will I be wearing this Spring?

I try to have a good mix of classic pieces in my wardrobe, and I think Spring is the season for mixing & matching. You need to layer carefully, because you never can tell how warm or cool it might be. In spring I’m a big fan of skirts with boots. I also love retro 70s style, so I’ll be looking for a few nice paisley numbers. Since I love the retro look, I love a maxi dress, I have a couple from last summer, and will be teaming them up with cute little cardis.

What will adorn my feet this spring? Anything and everything, I am a shoe girl after all ;o) However I adore the Gladiator trend, I am in LOVE with Sachi’s Bondage and also like the cute gladiator flats. I’m not quite sure about the knee high gladiators though, will keep an eye out for them on the streets and see how they fare. I’ll also be getting back into the peep toes, and combining them with some fishnets or going bare (weather permitting).

What will you be wearing as the weather warms up?
