Australiana

December 20th, 2010 by , and  |  Published in Headline, The Look  |  1 Comment

I love a sun-burnt country. Growing up, my family seemed to be on a never ending chase to soak up all Australia has to offer – and it really stuck with me. The beaches, the deserts, the forests, the mountains; drop me off anywhere and my heart will swell with pride and contentment.

Ultimately though, one of Australia’s greatest features is its rich, vivid colour palette. Deep rusty red, dry grassy greens, the whitest of white sand, the clear saturated blue sky – all so unique to this land downunder. Infuse these colours with the hard wearing fabrics ideally suited for working the land, crafted into modern, structural designs, and you’ve got a Look as stylish as Emmanuelle but Aussie as Vegemite.
