Newsworthy: Karen Walker's new Eyewear Campaign

Karen Walker and photographer Derek Henderson have been collaborating and making magic happen for some time now, but it is the latest eyewear campaign that really makes you sit up and take notice.

In support of the United Nations' International Trade Centre's Ethical Fashion Initiative, Kenyan artisans, who have recently been in the background creating screen-printed and beaded pouches, have been brought into the spotlight in celebration of their work. 

The campaign features some of the Kenyan artisans as the face, to put a face to the hands that have been creating the pouches. The Ethical Fashion Initiative has been backed by other brands such as Vivienne Westwood and Sass & Bide, but none I believe will make as much of an impact as this. 

The result is what you'd expect from a KW Eyewear campaign - a fun celebration of life, and the photos of course are absolutely stunning.

Mulberry not showing at LFW

Mulberry has announced they will not be showing a runway collection at the upcoming Fall'14 London Fashion Week in February next year. Following Emma Hill's departure from the brand earlier this year, there is yet to be a replacement appointed. 

The question now is who will be Emma's replacement? Mary Katrantzou and Erdem Moralioglu are among the rumored who may be up for the gig.

NZFW Begins!

Today, New Zealand Fashion Week begins. 

It will kick off tonight with the first showing of the designer selection show (a show of selected outfits from a huge range of designers that is repeated once a day), followed by the opening party for media, celebs, VIP guests etc. 

I received my backstage passes yesterday and am gearing myself up for a full-on week! Tonight's show should be a great little teaser to get everyone in the mood 

Tomorrow kicks off the first day of back to back individual designer shows, with Twentysevennames to open.
