You all audibly (yes audibly) fell in love with the angelic class in Lisa Brown's work when I last featured her work (HERE) so I thought it fitting that I interview the lovely lady herself about her ethereal designs. As I have mentioned on numerous occasions, Lisa's work has always spoken volumes for Australian fashion for me, with its relaxed, but distinct sophistication. So here we go - once more with feeling :)
Hey Lisa, how’s it going?
Hello :) Great thanks, glad to be featured on your blog!
How did you start out as a designer?
I've always had the desire to have one off, unique pieces but couldn't always afford the things I wanted. Would hunt through op shops to find different things. If they weren't exactly what I wanted, I would cut, slash, bleach etc to get what I wanted. People would always ask me where I got my clothes from and I would make things for people, from there it grew!
What would you call the Lisa Brown vibe?
Relaxed Glamour.
Where do you draw most of your inspiration from?
Mostly draw my inspiration from the fabrics that I source. Also from the 70's and everything vintage.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years time?
Still working hard for the business, but with more travelling. Being able to find beautiful things from all over the globe and include them in my collections.
Which is your all time personal favourite Lisa Brown piece?
One of the garments I have in my new upcoming Winter collection that we are working on now.
If you could be anyone in the fashion industry, who would it be?
Would have to be someone with an endless budget and who isn't restricted. It would be great to be someone who has full access to machinists, patternmakers, fabrics and embellishments etc. Someone like John Galliano.
One of our previous interviewees, designer Belle of Belle Bijoux, would like to know: What was your personal fashion moment last season?
Would have to our photoshoot for Spring Summer in Byron Bay!
And last of all, what’s a random question would you like to ask the next interviewee?
What is a must have that every girl should have in their wardrobe?
These couple of images are of my favourite Lisa Brown style - the Poppy dress - it comes in a million beautiful colours so be sure to check out more (and the latest collection) right HERE.
