Australia's representation for the 2013 Woolmark competition by the wonderful Dion Lee.
You can certainly see why this beautiful, spine tingling even (sorry, I couldn't resist) collection was chosen. I mean really, how many people can design a coat/hat hybrid and have the end result come out this magnificent?
Safe to say this collection has sparked my interest (ok need/must/whatever) at sourcing an 'IT' coat for winter. And I say this despite the fact I'm currently sitting in 30 degree heat at 9.30 in the night, which has got to be a good thing on Mr Lee's part. Very good sir, very good indeed.
And in more up-to-date Woolmark news (which is still approximately a week old), it was Christian Wijnants that ended up taking the covetable prize of $100,000 and the chance to be stocked in some of the most prestigious boutiques around the world. You can read a few words and see Christian's collection here
