Went to Allen and purchased all my tulle, just purchased all my lycra.
Now to start making up the belts and masks, never a dull moment. I'm never happy with whats out there so decided to make my own. Why not make it easy for myself.

Whilst away we also checked out two garment facbrics in China, which was eye opening and just a great thing to see.
You always have an image in your head about the way things work and look like but to see it in real life was great.
Here's some pictures of the factories....
and now this is the second factory we went to....
Along with all these visits we attended fashion week, which was soo much fun and just great to see.
We met some ladies from Australia who were trying to get their label seen and they had some really good advice. It was nice to see aussies there and get a real feel for what life would be like in that world.
Amongst all thus fun, it was sooo very hot and sticky, we got terribly burnt and lost a god 5kilos from all the hiking around.
Overall a fantastic trip and definately something any person into fashion should do because its an amazing experience.
The markets are the ultimate highlight and the culture is just mind boggling.
Of course the fun isnt over because it was time for us to head back to tafe
to a new surroundings in the city
and finally start our ranges.
so until next time guys, stay posted.
