Country Road Styling Workshop


I've been BURSTING to share this exciting news with you for AGES!!! But was sworn to secrecy until the release day.
That day is now here!!!!!

On Friday the 21st of May Country Road proposed that 10 fashion design students from RMIT would collaborate with them, in styling 4 looks for the Spring Summer 2010 Collection.
Being one of these 10 students, I was lucky enough to be briefed (and given a sneak peak) of the range. After this introduction, we were left to practically play dress-ups for a few hours with the entire collection, and create approximately three looks each. This was a dream come true! Dressing up really has to be one of my favorite games to play! ….maybe even the only game which I do play!

After the end of this fantastic experience, the Country Road team selected only four looks from the entire day. These four looks have been photographed by the Fashion Photographer Daniel Jackson in New York, and are also included in the current Country Road Catalog.
I am Thrilled that myself along with my other friends (and great students) were selected not only for this wonderful experience, but also the opportunity to work with Country Road. Myself along with the other three finalists are currently in the Spring Summer Catalog for 2010.







The top image is the Selected styled look, photographed my D.Jackson. And the remaining images are my own, showing the other looks that I developed.

All garments and most accessories are from Country Road, some accessories are my own.
