Geometry




 

Wearing: Dion Lee 'Linear Print' Tank (warehouse sale, $200), One Teaspoon 'Awesome Baggies' Jeans, Windsor Smith 'Mara' Patent Heels (on sale, $49.95), PeepToe Patent Clutch (on sale, $99.95)

Ignore the penis on the far wall. Sorry about that.

Apart from being scared I was going to fall through the floor (this was two stories up in an abandoned factory, where half the floor boards had rotted out and every step was a life-risking one) this was an amazing place to shoot. All the exposed beams created a perfect geometric setting to complement the pattern on this incredible Dion Lee top, which I was thrilled to purchase at the recent Sydney warehouse sale.

To be honest on purchasing the top I wasn't thinking about how I would wear it, (apart from thinking it would justify the purchase of a white asymmetrical leather skirt to pair it with); this outfit was a spontaneous match put together the morning we shot. I've been looking for new ways to wear my awesome baggies and this just seemed to work; it gives them the sophisticated edge I was sure they had but just needed to find a way to channel properly, and also gives the top a street appeal not always associated with digitially printed silk garments.
