RAFW Day 3 Recap

A recap of a few of my favourite shows from day 3 at RAFW.

Show 1 - Lisa Ho
The latest installment from Lisa Ho is a beautiful mix of earthy tones with splashes of sky blue and peach. Polished lady like suits with crisp shirts, next to ethereal flowing gowns and tribal prints. Love the shorts below, a great way to add a bit of spice to your outfit.

Show 2 - Dhini
A predominately black and white collection, with bursts of warm toned colours such as orange and pale yellow. Sheer floaty fabrics were teamed with a plethora of harem pants. Showing skin seemed to be the underlying theme in this collection, which was evident with the inclusion of several itty bitty play-suits with plunging necklines. Definitely not for the faint hearted!

Show 3 - Alice McCall
I know this is a big call but I going to go as far as saying that this collection was my favourite of Fashion Week this year. Yes I went there! I struggled to pick only a few pieces to put in this post, so I'm going to add a few more as I think it deserves it.
Another predominately white collection with beautiful vintage inspired patterns, cut out detailing and lattice style fabrics. High necklines and sheer fabric, an unbeatable combination that adds sex appeal to an outfit without showing too much skin. I'm a sucker for a pretty dress, and loved the styles with the fitted torso that kicked out at the hips. It's nice to see a classic style given a modern twist from the inclusion of cut out panels on the waist.
