Heirloom story
Saturday, March 10, 2012 at 2:55PM
The next delivery from our 'Harvest' collection is on its way to our stockists all around Australia.
'Heirloom' are traditional varieties of fruits and vegetables, and gives us our name of the new story, with highlight reds, greens and textures in printed silks and a tie dyed viscose jersey reminiscent of these Old World plants.
There is a great story behind the 'Heirloom' vegetables we used in the cover photo, as one of the lovely people from the Northey St Markets collected these for us when we were preparing the selling book. The different varieties of organic tomatoes and the purple carrots tasted great too! See the vegatable Romanesco for yourself, it has most amazing shapes and we think it tastes like a nice combination of broccoli and cauliflower (lightly steamed with some butter!).
Back to the beautiful clothing; the key pieces for this story are the 'Emelie' twist top, 'Lorelei' crop cardi, 'Takara' double skirt and the 'Cedar' pant.
The 'Takara' double skirt is shown in the centre image (all black) and the 'Lorelei' crop cardi shown in the three images on the left (black, charcoal and moss available).
We'll be doing an individual blog on the 'Emelie' twist top very soon, as it is a versatile piece you can wear a few different ways.
Visit the current collection page here... to see more images from the 'Heirloom' story.
And stay tuned... lots of new things happening here at the Rant studio.
