This was my first exposure to fittings and I was awed by the level of detail that goes into considering the fit of each garment. They puzzled for ages over design decisions like cm under the arm, length of sleeves, position of neckline, contrast of stitches, attachment of hardware, height of belt loops and feel of fabric. Robyn gives allot of thought to ensure women get a flattering fit with lots of care taken when shaping the garment to curves.
I can't give too many spoilers on the summer range but I can say there is an amazing vest inspired by the leather ruffle vest in a beautiful Grey linen. A perfect transition piece that will be in my wardrobe as soon as the Summer Range lands!
We had just enough time to get over to Albert Park to see the new store. I met Simi Maddock (who makes the amazing jewellery shown on the site and found in Little Fuchsia stores) and Alexis from Tiddles and Chich, the children's wear label that shares the store. Amazing chicks with obvious passion and humour. The new store looks great and was full of cute kids and mums browsing and chatting. It has a great vibe and has been an instant hit in spite of some super chilly weather. The $50 knits are flying out the door.
I had to take a photo of this cute pooch enjoying our sign as her owner browsed the store. Doris is a natural 'model' and could very well end up with a shirt named after her!Best,
