Suzi, Leeyong and I |
To celebrate MSFW the Obus Store on Flinders Lane held a Mexican themed party. The shop was decked out with brightly coloured decorations and an amazing art mural.
Guests nibbles on salsa and corn chips as they browsed the new season stock. With lots of bold prints and colour, the spring/summer collection had me wishing warmer weather was here!
If the beautiful bright coloured pieces aren't reason enough to shop at Obus, it's great to know that Obus are an entirely Melbourne based brand, with all their garments manufactured in Melbourne. This means that any money you spend at Obus stays in Melbourne supporting the local craftspeople and local economy!
I was lucky enough to attend with the busy Leeyong from Style Wilderness who covered MSFW for City Weekly. She looked fantastic in her Frida Kahlo inspired outfit.
Thanks to Obus for hosting such a wonderful party!
Check out the pictures from the event:

Fun photos! There's such a great fashion scene in Melbourne, and I love following it vicariously! This whole Mexican trend that's so hot in Australia is right up my alley - being from North America it's not so much a trend as a huge part of the culture - and it makes me feel so much more at home to find those influences here in Australia too... now if we could just get some more Caribbean people, food, and music out in the town we'd really be in for a good time!
