Patsyfox top tips at NY fashion week, P2

by Patsyfox on September 25, 2009

When it was first pointed out to me that I have a “thing” for stripes, I protested vehemently – simply for the fact that I hate to be predictable. And yet take me out of my quirky routines in any way and I am like an ant dusted with talc powder, hopelessly lost to my [...]

Patsyfox top tips at NY fashion week, P1

by Patsyfox on September 23, 2009

Crazy catwalk time again and I’m again wondering why I’m in my pyjamas in my studio, when clearly I should be front row somewhere far far away and much more glamorous.
The best thing about being a Melbourne correspondent for WGSN?  Every night at about 11pm I get my new daily bulletin full of amazing reports [...]

My pants on your back

by Patsyfox on September 21, 2009

Truth be told, I am just back from dinner with Craig, my erstwhile co-worker, menswear designer extraordinaire, and someone whose wit, much like the pace he keeps while marching along those northern hemisphere streets, I have to trot to keep up with – kind of like a gym for my sense of humour, without the [...]

by Patsyfox on September 17, 2009

It was a good day last Tuesday.  The sun was shining, I’d just finished a tedious short course, I’d spent the afternoon drinking wine in the sun at Fed Square checking out a bunch of post-rally firemen, and I was killing time before going to my friend Carrie’s exhibition opening at First Site Gallery.  The [...]

Juiced up on free champagne, I’ve just returned home via the no. 86 tram with the Kurt Cobain not sound-alike, from my friend Rodney’s new label launch, THANH Winter 2010.  And what  a launch it was, at the crazy-beautiful State Library.  What excited me most though, even more than the sight of the table full [...]

BROOK&LYN

by Patsyfox on September 8, 2009

Been cruising some blogs lately, and my, it seems almost everyone except my 10-day-old grand-nephew has one these days. (Ahem, er, I don’t count because I am insane enough to spend the wee hours, previously spent sleeping, drawing these sweet little artworks.)
Well suffice to say, a person could spend their entire life watching other [...]

The Secret

by Patsyfox on September 5, 2009

Don’t you just love people who are like walking quote books?  I love them from afar, like Karl Lagerfeld, and even better up close, like my friend Anne, in whose company I panic if I am without a notebook to scribble down said quotes.
Just last week over coffee I was dribbling on about “figuring it [...]

Welcome Dakotah

by Patsyfox on September 1, 2009

Given that I became Aunty Angie at the age of 6, it’s not all that surprising that the younger generation have lapped me in the reproductive race – Particularly since my eggs’ reserve light is now flashing and I still haven’t moved on that one. However, I really can’t help feeling a little left behind. [...]
