Cool Hunting
In the 1985 movie "Weird Science," a pair of happy misfits use tip-top technology and nerdy know-how to create something truly beautiful in the form of "real life" woman and sexed up diva Kellie Le Brock. The Australian fashion label Romance Was Born have created something equally beguiling with their Spring/Summer 07/08 collection, also called Weird Science. Sending coke-bottle spectacles, high-waisted acid wash and even a DNA inspired headdress down the runway at Rosemount Fashion Week, a real highlight of the collection is the label's collaboration with hot Sydney artist Del Kathryn Barton. Del Kathryn Barton, who has previously collaborated on the label's Regional Australia collection, will once again provide a unique fabric print that will be reproduced across a range of garments. Romance's own misfit duo, Anna Plunkett and Luke Sales, know nerds get their revenge in the end.

With waiting lists and preorders already taking place, there's enough competition for this label without sharing it with the world. But what the heck. A little bit of fashion karma never goes astray. So listen up ladies. If you haven't heard of Aussie label Maurie and Eve, you need to pay attention. Because their current collection, "End of the Line" is due to sell...
The perfect balance between Shiraz and Parmesan is the metaphor that came to mind when we met Nat Denning, a fashion retailer, and Michael, a retail shopfitter, who have combined to create Fallow, one of Australia's most stylish and unique boutiques. Stocking the best of Australian and international labels including Friedrich Gray, Claude Maus, St Augustine Academy and Chronicles of Never, this boutique is...

No, you're not tripping. Last night wasn't that crazy. Your mind is spinning courtesy of some serious 3-D handiwork by our friends from Limedrop. The "All 3 Dimensions" collection incorporates a color palette of white, grey and black, with highlights of red, blue, and silver and graphics reminiscent of the golden age of 3-D. Think big dinosaurs at the cinema. Remember those days? This...
