Make the 24 hour trip down under and you are bound to find some fabulous fashions. With Australia’s Fashion Week recently coming to a close, Australian designers hit the net, showing off some impressive collections. One of my favorites was Therese Rawsthorne, an Aussie designer with youthful romance pouring out of her sewing machine. Having worked for Issey Miyake and Oswald Boateng, Rawsthorne returned to London where she founded the label Youth World, eventually naming it after herself. Her Fall 2009 collection combines intricately tailored masculine pieces with feminine naturals. While pieces remain relatively simple, Victorian inspirations, like ruffled sleeves, high collars and bodice tops and dresses.
