Morrison VIP Night Adelaide
The most recent instalment of Rundle Street East’s VIP nights was held at the Morrison boutique, on Wednesday the 26th of June, with owner and head designer Kylie Radford. Kylie recounted Adelaide’s fashion elite of the humble beginnings of the brand through one popular pair of pants, which sold 25 000 pairs in just a few years. 6 years on and with a string of stores across the nation, Morrison Clothing reflects a passion for creating quality designs for empowered women.
Offering her own personal styling tips for Morrison’s Winter ’13 collection Antecedent, and other personal favourite pieces, the VIP guests were offered a rare insight into the design and construction process, and the attention to detail for each and every item of clothing. Muted prints echoed a tropical vibe toned downed for winter wearability, while prints in shades of grey, black and white personified the classic, yet sleek Morrison woman. Luxurious leather was skillfully paired with tweed, while charcoal and nougat knitted shades proved Morrison’s affinity for drapes and layers. A standout piece for Fashion Global was the leather Costa dress, this season in a creamy caramel shade of soft leather, with an asymmetrical hemline and characteristic draping (modeled in black by Kylie Radford on the night).
The night was full of friendly people with a united love of fashion from all over Adelaide. Kylie’s warmth and approachability guaranteed a fun night, and included her jumping behind the counter and serving customers, her designs sating our appetite for stunning clothes. Guests included Selena Battersby editor of Attitude, Jodi Nash of SA Style, the stylish crew from Fashion Squared and the lovely ladies from The Urban Silhouette. Hosted by East End property owners the Maras Group, guests sipped on Dandelion Vineyard wines and goodie bags included a take home sample as well as other treats from Haighs, Jurlique, Tbar and Palace Nova Cinemas.
