Bettina Liano Spring/Summer 2009/10

Reconstruct the Power is the name of Bettina Liano’s Spring Summer collection, think glamourpuss 80s with sharp sexy lines - I think it sizzles!

Thread Den presents Killer Queen

I wrote about Thread Den a little while back here when they had their store refit (one of the most original places in town I think!). For Melbourne Spring Fashion Week they strike again with an original take on a fashion show unveiling their spring/summer collection in a theatrical performance complete with dancers, strings and opera singers. The show will take place over two evenings in September at North Melbourne’s Lithuanian Club.  The cast comprises of members of the Melbourne Ballet Company and contemporary dancers who will showcase couture and ready-to-wear pieces by emerging local designers. Futhermore at the afterparty guests can mingle with designers, rub shoulders with the cast, and browse through the vintage-inspired, locally designed pieces.

‘Killer Queen’ will be held at the Lithuanian Club at 44 Errol Street, North Melbourne on Friday and Saturday 4^th and 5^th September. Tickets are $12 plus booking fee and are available at Thread Den:  16 Errol Street, upstairs via Webb Lane, North Melbourne or by phoning (03) 9329 5305.
