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!
