On a trip to WA earlier this year, LMFF were lucky enough to catch up with Kristy and John from Flannel at their new space in a converted chapel. The space is as light and airy as a Flannel collection and we couldn’t help but get excited for the cooler months ahead as we took a look at their autumn/winter 2012 collection.
Thank you for showing us around your anjelic studio. Visit Flannel.

Bridget and Nick, the team behind LIFEwithBIRD, greet us at the top of the staircase that leads up into their loft-style Abbotsford studio space. With white walls and glistening wood floors, the LIFEwithBIRD team is spread out across a spacious studio, scattered with art books, trinkets and treasures. As we explore their space, they let us in on the development of the new collection, and let us know what’s exciting in their world right now.

Aurelio Costarella’s space in North Perth is a hive of activity on the day we stop by for a Studio Visit. Bridal fittings, shoppers browsing through his store, Post Emporium, and the team working in the studio to bring the next collection to life. On this bright, sunny day, light streams through the window and brings the multicoloured silks of Aurelio’s collection to life on the racks – it’s a rich mix of silk, leather and marabou feather. While clients try on dress after dress, we explore his store and studio space stacked to the rafters with treasures like scented candles and precious jewellery.
Thank’s to Aurelio for looking after us in Perth. Visit Aurelio Costarella.

The Limedrop duo, Nathan & Clea, welcome us into their Fitzroy studio space on a cool Melbourne day and the cherry blossoms dotted along the window sill instantly brighten the mood!

Thank’s Nathan & Clea for letting us hang in your studio – we love it! Visit Limedrop.

We’re welcomed to Rosemary Masic’s whitewashed Fitzroy studio space by her energetic puppy, Stella, who definitely rules the roost in this studio space. A light and airy space filled with colourful samples, embellished trims and bookshelves bursting with fashion magazines, the studio is a warm and inviting space where the Nevenka team develops the gypsy-luxe collections that have developed a cult following. While we catch up with Rosemary on all things Nevenka, Stella roams the room and investigates the visitors.
Big thanks to Rosemary (and Stella) for letting us snoop around your studio! Visit Nevenka.

Gwendolynne Burkin welcomes us into her Fitzroy studio, which sits directly above her store space just off Brunswick street, with a warm smile and the offer of a cup of Milo. Bubbling over with ideas and excitement about some developments for the Gwendolynne label that are in the pipeline, Ms Burkin shows us around her studio – a treasure trove of beads, lace and heavenly trims. Hand-finished gowns hang from the ceiling, reflecting the cool winter light streaming through the windows.
Thank you very much Gwendolynne for letting us take a peek into your studio! Visit Gwendolynne.

Alex and Georgie Cleary of Alpha60 welcome us to their industrial Fitzroy loft-office on a chilly Melbourne afternoon as their team work on the development of their Winter 2012 collection. Just a stone’s throw from their Brunswick Street store, the Alpha60 team work in a vast open-plan space that functions as office, photographic studio, meeting place, sample room and more. We catch up with the guys and meet their zoo of Taxidermy friends, including a pair of magpies and a double-headed duck.
Huge thanks to Alex and Goergie for letting LMFF into your studio! More studio visits to come. Visit Alpha60.
