I’m thinking of rustling up a few famous fashion quotes to use as part of my display at the up-and-coming Life Instyle exhibition in Melbourne. I can see them scrawled in hot pink across the wall. Here are a few that I stumbled across that pack a bit of a punch:
* “I don’t design clothes. I design dreams.” Ralph Lauren
* “The difference between style and fashion is quality.” Georgio Armani
* “Adornment, what a science! Beauty, what a weapon!” Coco Chanel
If you have any great fashion related quotes, I’d love some feedback!

The ever-clever folk at NOWNESS.com examine the recent influence of tattoos in fashion while taking a peek at the latest clothing and
accessories line from Japanese tattoo artiste extraordinaire Horiyoshi III. Nowness also feature an exclusive film, Horiyoshi The Third: The Skin Carver, that features the tattoo master and his workshop. Such an exotic art form! Can’t say, I’ve tried it myself….but have been tempted from time to time. How about you?

There’s a new, not to be missed, exhibition that’s about to be launched at Sydney’s Powerhouse Museum. It’s titled, you guessed it: Creating the look: Benini and fashion photography. And it kicks off on 31 July, 2010. This yummy new exhibition – that is part of Sydney Design 10 – explores the art of fashion photography. Creating the look: Benini and fashion photography explores the creative processes involved in styling, crafting and designing powerful eye-catching fashion photographs. More specifically it draws on the highly successful partnership between Italian-born photographer Bruno Benini and his wife Hazel Benini, a New Zealand-born window display artist, fashion stylist and visual merchandising designer. From the 1950s through to 2000, the couple produced some of Australia’s most memorable and elegant fashion images by combining careful styling with elegant design.

It’s designed with the considerable skill of Anna Foster-Percy of kids wear brand annaandsally We’re currently in the throes of designing our stand (Stand 218, Hall 2) which is exciting.
