Something sensational: Made in the Shade
As September’s longer days of colour and heady scents enchant us, the desire to banish winterwear from our wardrobes grows ever stronger.
Fortunately, our favourite designers have pulled out all the stops to ensure we step into spring dressed bang-on-trend and looking sensational.
Made in the Shade showcases a stunning line-up of clothes from both overseas and New Zealand. Anne Mardell brings us mix’n’match combos in vibrant plains and patterns, crisp white linens, tailored jackets, and silky separates in sultry, smoky hues. Bittermoon celebrates vintage in feminine, romantic dresses that are ideal for weddings or any cocktail event, while perennial favourite, the Carly dress, is the ultimate in effortless, edgy cool.
Optimum cotton knits feature sorbet pastels with zip and pocket details, while Blackstone provide luxurious layering linen coordinates, including natty waist-coats, in flirtatious florals.
Canadian label Lisette is all about pants, from muted jacquards to swinging 60s paisleys and classic stripes. Fancy cuff motifs and sassy slits ensures the Lisette ladies stand out in a crowd. With easy on-street parking, pop in and let Ali help you find that something gorgeous to put a spring in your step.
