Getting back into it!

Well, after a lovely break that enabled me to focus on motherhood, I'm really keen to get back into it. And what has inspired me? The beginning of the Rosemount Australian Fashion Week: http://rafw.com.au
I have been really enjoying following the pictures taken by our friends at Red Eclipse; however, as much as I love being able to keep up with the latest looks online, it's just not as exciting as being there in amongst it!

In my absence, the team having been working on some great looks for Nelson Molloy (see pic above) and Indigo Joker, and also producing some excellent competition work.

Whilst we chat about it in the salon occasionally, I do feel like there are so many things that we achieve, in our own time, that people are just not aware of. This is a fantastic forum to show you how talented the Rokstar team really is, and how committed and passionate we are about our art - wearable, malleable, ever-changing art. An example of this can be seen in a shoot that I did recently did hair for Gail Sorronda, shot by Amber Toms (see pic right).

Another great opportunity was the release of Indigo Joker's first commercial collection that Jemima and I were asked to work on. We LOVED hanging out in a hanger! (pic below left)


Another well of creativity is bubbling up with our newest team members: Em, David and Tom. I have to admit that I've had an almost visible problem with Gen-Y for quite some time now, but I'm constantly being proven wrong. Really wrong. These people are vibrant, committed, and have so much talent oozing through their veins. It's exciting to be allowed to help guide them because, inevitably, they end up guiding me by expecting me to give my best, and then give a little more. What an exciting future!

Here are some great shots recently done by Angela, David and Em that feature clothing by Nelson Molloy. They were shot in my husband's workshop, which is called Ralph's Garage, in West End.

So, thanks for reading my first blog. I'd like to use this space to share with you the things that inspire us to push beyond just going to work every day. These things are all about love, not money, and we feel blessed to be able to work with like-minded people.
