A Salasai + Nick Von K Project

On the evening of April 5th at Hopetoun Alpha in Newton, Auckland, Sin-Mae and I attended this special event which celebrated the launch of Salasai's Spring/Summer 2011/2012 collection and the new season of Nick Von K jewelry. There was also a silent auction of 12 Russ Flatt prints to raise funds for the Red Cross Christchurch Earthquake appeal.

After consuming a few wines, everyone gathered around to watch Julia Deans give a beautiful performance while Julie Van Renen and Mike Holland did a wonderful contemporary dance.


The first of the two short films showcasing each of the designer's collection was "A Strange Love Project" by Salasai. A haunting film that was quite intriguing. Check it out below.


Next was "Beautiful Alchemy" by Nick Von K which was quite a stunning piece about transformation. Watch it below.

Thanks to Sin-Mae for taking these awesome pictures of Nick Von K's Beautiful Alchemy range. The range is also available on the Nick Von K website (http://nvk.co.nz). The waiters were also wearing samples from the collections of both designers. A list of stockists for Salasai can be found on their website (http://www.salasai.co.nz). Check out some of the amazing pieces below from Nick Von K; the Pounamu Bullet silver chain and the Mexi Raven Skull silver charm are my favorites!

MisteR Winter 2011 Collection 'The Bicycle Gang'

One of our favourite labels MisteR has come out with a great Winter collection which we're super excited about. It's uber cute and quite stylish!


Reversible jackets, waistcoats, skinny ties and cute bowties are featured in their collection. Also cardigans and vests which are a part of their brand new knitwear range.Check out below, the hooded Spoke reversible jacket which we really really LOVE!!!!


The blue color palette used for some of the pieces is awesome, especially the cardigan below with the dark blue lining. As we have seen so far with most of the Winter collections, it's all about layers and this collection does it quite well with the contrasts of the different layers.


Now we know you want to get your hands on some of this merch, so head on over to www.mister.co.nz/stockists for a stockist near you. The collection should also be available on their online store www.mister.co.nz/content/mister-store within the next few weeks.
