So yes, undoubtedly late but finally a post about the SAA Spring/Summer collection for 2010/11, entitled Crystal Ballroom, and it's show at Royal Australian Fashion Week. It pays tribute to a Melbourne music venue of the same name, and to the variety of patrons that attended. The show itself overall had vampire themed tone, as it was sponsored by the show True Blood. You can take the commercial aspect any way you will, but in the end, an amazing show was produced. The clothes seemed to represent a variety of styles, the slim tailored mods to rougher looking punks, all with the modern edge given by SAA. A good variety of cuts for the summer times, jeans, tees, Alvin's sharp suiting, plus some newer style studded denim shirts. All topped off with plenty of Dr Martens and other boots, ties and jewellery for a sweet as show.
My personal favourites are the the one at the top, and the one just below. For more on the complete coverage of this particular show, and for the rest of the collection (including orders, although pre-orders have finished I believe) head to the For Tomorrow Blog. You'll find a good quality video of the whole show there, as well as a preview of the lookbook for the men's range.
You'll notice I didn't cover the women's clothing if you watch the video. Not my thing sorry, although there is some really cool stuff for the ladies.
