New Label on the Block: I Am

New Label on the Block: I Am

I’m not sure about you, but I’m just that little sceptical of new labels.  Not that the idea of a new interpretation, new faces and a whole new aesthetic doesn’t excite me, but because I find new labels rarely reach that benchmark that I inevitably set for them.

Last Thursday, I joined Sydney’s most glamorous at Cockle [...]

Roderick Ng and Eleni Kondos, the two brains behind the niche label, take fashion back to its purest form. From the beginning Master/Slave has revolved around the core principal of, [...]

Paris, Melbourne at Marais

Paris, Melbourne at Marais

With countless retail developments both in the city and suburbs it is hard to fathom just how clothing boutiques can survive in a climate that is becoming increasingly commercial. The few who do are challenged with online stores, eBay merchandise and those ugly monstrosities that are usually designed, developed and built just to contain and [...]

Farewell, Dear Tote.

Farewell, Dear Tote.

It seems that, whenever I put my fingertips to the keys of my laptop for another weekly music post, only sadness and disappointment springs from them. Though I can not promise that the most pressing Australian music news will be bright and joyful next week, I certainly hope it will be. We need a bit [...]
