D' Luce
A Fashion for All Seasons
We all love fashion. And we all love watching fashion change and grow.
But we hate it too. There is nothing as heartbreaking as looking in your closet and realizing that almost everything you own has gone out of style… again. Thus forcing us off to the boutiques and department stores and start the expensive chore we love to hate. Updating our wardrobe.
But here is where D’Luce steps in. A label that launched in June last year with a strong objective, “to maintain and create pieces that would last longer than one season.”
A gift from the fashion heavens.
D'Luce's style is made up of traditional techniques (e.g. hand and French knitting) but with a contemporary sleek edge that is different yet always wearable.
D’Luce’s latest collection for Spring / Summer 2007 named "Mademoiselle D'Luce" has a twist of Autumn tones and flattering shapes that drape around the body. With inspiration from 1920's glam and the constant reinvention of knitwear D’Luce’s latest collection would fit into both eveningwear and the smart casual demographic.
D’Luce will be displaying this range at the designedge fashion incubator agent showroom at the Spring Summer Mercedes Australian Fashion Week in conjunction with 14 other emerging West Australian designer labels.
Viewing of labels in the designedge fashion incubator agents showroom is by appointment with showroom coordinator/s TCFWA Committee Members, Margaret & Karl Farrell Phone: 0403 794 445 or 0422 506 228.
designedge fashion incubator showroom will be located in MAFW Agents & Designer Suite 3 @ MAFW, Circular Quay, Sydney. The event runs from the 26th - 30th of April.
