    The Spirit of the Black Dress Page 1 of 5 The Spirit of the Black Dress TULLIA JACK, WGSN 08.10.09 The inaugural Spirit of the Black Dress event aims to promote emerging Australian fashion and textile designers. Designers from across the continent were asked to submit their interpretation of the wardrobe staple then 10 were selected to represent the event for 2009. The 10 final designs The successful applicants are a varied and talented group who have come together to lead the way forward for Australian fashion. As part of the application the designers were asked to respond to the question of sustainability and a dominant theme was the use of upcycled textiles to create a functional multipurpose garment, contrasting dramatically with the fast-fashion consumer culture that currently reigns on the high street. The garments were photographed by Christian Blanchard and hung in a gallery format alongside the dresses giving viewers the inspirational and physical side by side. Creative types from across the genres of styling, photography, hair, make-up and design were given the opportunity to flex their imagination and create directional images that demonstrate the way forward for Australian design.

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Dan Bigfootzerian Parties In My Butthole With His Billionaire Lifestyle by Chuck Tingle Reading Parrot - Read. Review. Repeat. „10 Bücher mit besonders langen/ausgefallenen Titeln“ sind das heutige TopTenThursday-Thema und oh, das wird bestimmt sehr lustig; da freue ich mich auch schon sehr darauf, die Beiträge der weiteren Teilnehmenden zu lesen. Lange Titel sind ja nun nicht mehr so ungewöhnlich; ich meine, spätestens „Der Hundertjährige, der aus dem Fenster stieg und verschwand“ hat Titel, die sich bestenfalls über das gesamte Cover ziehen, doch zu einer der grossen Moden der 2010er gemacht und auch auf den Auswahllisten zum „ungewöhnlichsten Buchtitel des Jahres“ finden sich sehr viele laaaaaaaaaaange Titel wie Thomas Spitzers „Wir sind glücklich, unsere Mundwinkel zeigen in die Sternennacht, wie bei Angela Merkel, wenn sie einen Handstand macht“ (Gewinner 2014). Ich habe nun ein wenig gestöbert, 100 Leute gefragt (okay, nein, das stimmt so nicht) und präsentiere euch hiermit voller Verstörung einige besonders skurrile englische Buchtitel, die nicht weniger irritierend sind als die hässlichen Buchcover, die ich Mitte Januar im Rahmen der „Montagsfrage“ abgebildet habe. Chuck Tingle: so ziemlich jeder Buchtitel. „Turned Gay By The Existential Dread That I May Actually Be A Character In A Chuck Tingle Book” klingt generell eher nach einem Statement und nur sehr, sehr wenig nach einem Buchtitel. Tatsächlich ist so aber ein Buch eben jenen Chuck Tingles betitelt! Eine tragende Rolle innert eines Tingle-Buchs kann man übrigens offensichtlich erhalten, wenn man nicht nur sehr viele Immobilien besitzt, sondern dazu auch noch den festen Glauben, der ideale republikanische Präsident der USA zu sein bzw.

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] Paper Rock magazine - Issue 6 Abstract Editorial - Well, it’s been some kind of journey, but here it is; issue six of Paper, Rock! Looking back we realise some of it could’ve been done differently to make the final trek a little smoother. I’m sure you’re all- too-familiar with the feeling of longing for the past time you let slip away so you could avoid gulping down your 3rd Redbull at one a.m. to meet your deadline tomorrow. It’s somewhat nostalgic, which is the theme for this issue. Issue six takes you through the University of Wollongong’s past 60 years, looks into the effects of BlueScope and where Port Kembla is turning to beyond the steel industry, and gives insight into the horrific cruelty that is, puppy farming. You will find fresh fashion ideas, the best Wollongong dessert locales, prime (yet cheap) holiday spots in our own backyard, an upcoming local major music festival and so much more. We’d like to thank the contributors who continually came through for us in this issue. The people who were always first ot put up their hand to help, who picked up the slack when we couldn’t, and got things done without fuss.

  • Just What Is AATFA?
    proudly presents Western Australia What are the Apex Australia Teenage Fashion Awards? The Apex Australia Teenage Fashion Awards (AATFA) are an annual nationwide fashion competition for high school students. There are four competition categories which students can enter: • Casual Wear • Evening Wear • Wearable Art • Society and Environment Students design and sew all of their own garments which are then showcased in a catwalk fashion show for family, friends and the general public. The fashion shows take place in heats held at schools and public spaces around the country, in which judges determine the winners based on both technical ability, creativity and design skill. Winners from the heats are selected to participate in the State Finals as they compete to secure one of 54 highly contested places at the National Finals, usually held in Sydney or Melbourne. The competition has been running for more than 20 years in Western Australia and in recent years it has been held as a national competition. Each year the event attracts entries from over 800 public and private high school students from around the country. In Western Australia, there are approximately 300 entrants each year with heats held in Perth as well as regional heats held in Albany, Esperance, Wagin, Narrogin, Karratha, Geraldton and Manjimup. What are the benefits of entering AATFA? All students who participate in the Perth and regional heats receive a certificate of participation. Winners from the heats are selected to participate in the State Final. The State Final is held at one of Perth’s five star hotels, with the students showcasing their garments on catwalk staging, with professional lighting, music by a live DJ and a celebrity MC.
