Katelyn Aslett 

As I have said in a previous post I am beginning to work for the internationally recognized designer Katelyn Aslett. Recently she was featured in the Sydney fashion Palette... In Sydney. 

As a little tutorial for some of you less savvy speakers in the shit that fashion girls say; the Sydney Fashion Palette is the weekend before Fashion week Australia. Just as a Palette would be served in a restaurant it gives you options and a taste for what is to come next. The weekend was most certainly a scrumptious freaking taste for the fashion festival that followed.

  

Back onto Katelyn Aslett: I have here both the insight into the garments and the runway images. Personally I will always be the cheerleaderfor team Aslett (even if I don’t have the legs for a cheer-leading uniform) who am I kidding, I do, but this was a top notch collection that showed.

The show was hot to go H-O-T. T-O. G-O woo hot to go.

The prints featured on the garments were hand crafted art works by Katelyn which was then later photographed and printed onto the fabric you see here. Other then the printed fabric every other aspect of the garments are hand made, through the process of felting wool Katelyn produces a beautiful and usually surprising outcome. All garments are Katelyn Aslett Originals made with blood, sweat and tears... literally.

For every reader out there you need to imagine that I was watching these garments come to life in what seemed like a war zone. From panicking over the material arriving on time to frantically hand stitching the beading on garments, when it came to the end it was all worth it. Sorry to sound like a Disney film but it really was a happy ending. Except in the Disney film I wouldn’t have had wisdom teeth out one day before the show.   

From much chaos in the beginning of the design stage to ending in total serenity on the cat walk.
