Shine By Three x Paper Skye: SS11/12.

Those of you who've been reading/tweeting/facebooking will know that yesterday afternoon, Paper Skye's SS11/12 collection walked like it was nobody's business at Rosemount Australian Fashion Week. It was a fairly surreal to see the 12 looks I'd styled hung up on racks backstage, then floating down a runway towards some frenzied breed of photographers' pit. I can't even begin to imagine how designer Kirsten was feeling!

If you remember me mentioning that I'd shot the Paper Skye SS11/12 collection over the Easter weekend (and if don't) - here they are. Kirsten's pieces lend themselves so well to repeat layering, movement and any degree of light (as became so evident in yesterday's show) and were, as a result, such a joy to shoot despite the intermittent rain. It can hardly be a coincidence that my favourite transeasonal sheers, pleats, textured stripes and soft neutrals have been summarised in the one collection, so I hope you all enjoy these shots!

Do feel free to shoot me an email if you'd like higher res images and be sure to have a bit of a Paper Skye stalk at the website and Facebook page!

Thank you so much to the lovely Bespoke PR girls and Kirsten for this amazing opportunity (eternally grateful), and a huge congratulations to Kirsten for such a beautiful show yesterday! I'll have photos up for you all very soon - look what was in all the goody bags!




I get so dorkily excited about these things.

RAFW is well and truly done and dusted (including sleeping off the 5-day accumulation of waiting around, carrying a thousand bags and a damn heavy camera, chasing buses and cabs in wonderfully high Therapy heels, and other associated happy exhaustion). It was so wonderful meeting so many people who I've looked up to for who-knows-how-long... and some who I only realised I'd looked up to for years after the conversation had finished and they'd trotted off to a shiny black car somewhere :)

So many millions of photos and posts to come from a fantastic week! Thanks for all your sweet comments, tweets, likes and emails of support and general love!

*love*
