Rosemount Australian Fashion Week - Day One
Kirrily Johnson opened fashion week - loved the jodphurs and tubal pants. Next up was Nicola Finetti, Lee Matthews and One Teaspoon. The first Ready To Wear show included Brooke Benson, Brigid McLaughlin, Dhini, George Wu and Leonardo Salinas. The afternoon saw Hotel Bondi Swim, Anna Thomas, Wayne Cooper and Trimapee take the catwalk.
Next up was my favourite show of the day - Ruth Tarvydas. I loved everything about her collection. The romantic fabrics, the vibrant colours and most of all the jewelled crowns that adorned their loose upstyles. The show was dramatic with fake paparazzi buzzing around the models, the Kardashian sisters in the front row and Jonathan Pease from Australia’s Next Supermodel interviewing guests as we waited for the show to start.
An example of the crowns I loved.

Unfortunately I didn’t receive an invite to Michelle Jank so I met my boyfriend at Wildfire before heading off to the Ruth Tarvydas after party. It was at De Nom which I am now in love with. The toilets are amazing - and yes I always judge a place on its powder room.
Wildfire - the ‘Velvet Rose’ cocktail my boyfriend had - I just stuck to Champagne and Negroni’s.
The urinal (yes it is a painting - strangely enough the original is housed at The Wallice Collection - a museum on my old street in London) and the ladies toilet at De Nom.
