discrete. 'Autumn/Winter 2011' Collection
Now that the days are getting shorter and nights are colder it's time for Autumn/Winter Collections. discrete. have just released their Autumn/Winter 2011 Collection and we love the threads from these guys.
If you dig these make sure you check out www.discreteonline.co.nz.
You can also visit your nearest stockist or even better, hit up their brand new online shop: shop.discreteonline.co.nz. We're really loving the Outlaw Pullover in Grey Marl directly below for the boys!!
In Good Company
We certainly were in good company tonight as Wellington's freshest talent brought their latest collections out. For four days only Wellingtonians have the chance to pick up some great threads from the In Good Company popup shop at 13 Hunter Street in the city.
Emerging designers, their friends, family and Wellington's fashion conscious elite packed the place, checking out some great gear by labels including Sophie Burrowes, Phillipa and Alice, Sunday, Gul-K, Celine Rita, Hermione Flynn, Katie-Maree Cole, Jinny Chin, Jasmin Sparrow and Falvey. Pretty much all of whom you'll have seen on the Guru before.
Good times were had, great clothes were bought and we're looking forward to seeing them around the streets of Wellington. Locals have until Sunday to get down to 13 Hunter Street and pick up something nice. Unfortunately the great cocktails from Stolen Rum were for tonight only.
If you can't make it down to check out the winter collections, get to the web and check them out online:

NZ Fashion Festival Presented By REMIX & BIG little City - Collection 4
NZ Fashion Festival presented it's last fashion show on Friday night and we had front row seats. Collection 4 featured Huffer, Matchi Motchi, Zambesi Man, Ricochet, Annah Stretton, Bendon, Barkers, Workshop, Tigerlily and Kingan Jones. These labels showcased their Winter 2011 collections with Bendon kick starting the show with some sexy lingerie.
Huffer was up next with their collection "Into the Unknown" which was inspired by the era of exploration and adventure. With a dark color palette the collection featured furs and stripes. This is one of my favourite men's collection.
With Annah Stretton's Autumn/Winter collection, Calamity Jane, it was quite daring with corsets, ruffles, striking fabrics and textures.
Annah Stretton is quoted as saying about this collection “...it’s been about mixing the Wild West with extraordinary femininity and beauty” and that definitely comes through.
Matchi Motchi's collection Made In Space was quite unique and interesting. The knits were beautiful and it really showcases their exceptional tailoring and styling.
Kingan Jones followed with their beautiful Poetic Licence collection that had some wonderful florals and checked fabrics.
Barkers presented their sharp winter collection which featured lots of layering. Another favorite of ours which drew inspiration from the 1960's with the classic silhouettes.
Ricochets Winter 2011 collection The Rebel Set was very rock chic. With inspiration from the 1950s there was fur, leather and animal prints.
A fly looking black tuxedo being paraded on the catwalk got me all excited. I'm a huge Janelle Monae fan and she has been donning a tux ever since she released her song Many Moons!
Workshop Denim was up next which was another favorite with earth toned colors highlighting the collection.
Lots of layering happening in this collection as well with some classic blazers and jackets.
Tigerlily was the last one to reveal their winter collection which was quite bright and colorful. I love the earthy green used in this collection. The camo pants with the brown belt was another favorite.
We thoroughly enjoyed Collection 4 and managed to score the latest issue of REMIX magazine which presented the collection with BIG little City.
