Gary Bigeni – RAFW 2011/12

Well wasn’t last week crazy?! Fashion Week shows and after parties were on the schedule and we are only now catching up on sleep and the normal routine. Eeep!

We went to Gary Bigeni’s show last Wednesday at the Cargo Theatre and we were overwhelmed with the eye-popping colours. The colour palette included rustic orange, bright red, summer turquoise with a dash of neutral. Flowy pieces teamed up with structured leather jackets, block colours and thick diagonal stripes. The styling was minimal – mega hot heels, low pony tails and very bright red lipstick. Bigeni’s known for his subtle colour schemes. But not this year, he’s embraced bright colours and bold prints. He specialises in multidimensional tailoring and draping, creating wearable yet interesting pieces. He caught the attention of Australian retailer and fashion icon, Belinda Seper after graduating at East Sydney Design Tech in 2002. Through the support of Belinda, Bigeni’s label has come a long way, presenting a modern Australian style and is available at high-end boutiques both Australia wide and internationally.
