Fashion Palette feat; Guanabana and Effigy 49

On Saturday morning the Cilla Creative team ventured to the Overseas Passenger Terminal to see the Fashion Palette runway shows that featured both Effigy 49 and our new label Guanabana!

Guanabana gave the lucky audience a peak at their winter 2011 range which hasn't even hit the stores yet, while Effigy 49 showcased their Summer 2010 range!

Take a look at some of the photos the talented Josephine Wilcox took for us!

New Label on the Block!

Cilla would like to take this opportunity welcome the amazing label Guanabana to the team!

"The highly inspired label “Guanabana Designs” is the brainchild of Norwegian designer, Linda Bergskas, who based herself in Newcastle, Australia in 2001.

Guanabana was originally the name of Linda’s first boutique, named after her Diamond Python “Guana Miss Bana” who used to live in the boutique. Guanabana is also the name of a tropical fruit, also known as Soursup, it is similar to a custard apple.

Launched in 2007, Guanabana is already making waves in the Australian fashion scene with its bold vision of relaxed glamour and high-end bohemian style.
The avant-garde label has made modern exoticism an art form, consistently blurring the line between artistic expression and fashion.

Bergskas delivers an effortless fusion of kaleidoscopic colour, prints, beading and adornments.
Bergskas, a former Graphic designer, has utilized her talent to the best of her ability to create amazing graphics, whose prints and patterns are not only aesthetically pleasing but all exclusive to Guanabana.

Guanabana prides itself on offering the fashion industry something which is visually different and timeless in its design. In addition to clothing, the ethnic inspired pieces extend to a range of shoes, accessories and swimwear…all with an eye for natural pallets and fibres.
Guanabana is stocked in more than 100 selected stores Australia wide, and rapidly expanding within the International fashion market"
