Charitable Fashion

Just out of curiosity, would you buy a fashion item simply because the profits were going to charity? I came across this hideous little number on my web travels... (and it's a Stella McCartney!)

"Limited edition tank top designed by Stella McCartney for the 2007 Glastonbury Music festival. The proceeds will go to OXFAM, an organisation against poverty in the world."

I'm sure my two-year-old nephew could do better finger painting than the print on this tee.

Brisbane Fashion Festival Starts Tonight!!

I probably didn't need two exclamation marks in the heading there... I'm just trying to psych people up.

According to the schedule there is some fancy invite only shindig on at Government House. I'm not going 'cause my life motto is never to mix fashion with politics. (Okay, okay, I'm not invited, geez.)

Depending on my degree of laziness/growing mountain of uni work, I will try and post on Brisbane Fashion Festival.

** Also, I did an interview with the Event Coordinator for Gold Coast Fashion Week - so I will be posting that up soon.

*** Further goss: I'm getting a media pass to Gold Coast Fashion Week (meaning I get in free, can go backstage and cause trouble, and chat up male models). Sweet. So I'll be reporting on that in a few weeks time and I should get some cool photos.
