Idiosyncracies
We've been keeping an eye on Amelia Duncombe and her label Neon Heartache, right from the early days of her first collection when the designer was fresh out of fashion college. Since then, and in only a few seasons, the Neon Heartache style has changed from bright, poppy colours and prints, to a monochromatic colour palette of cute bows and sweetheart necklines, to texture and tie-dye, before finding itself leaning towards a slightly gothic, grunge look, replete in black.

Transition
It's been a while since we've paid respect to local labels so today's posts will be a series of sartorial reminders of the evolution, or revolution, of Brisbane's fashion. For the most part there is a generic dress code, one that fits in line with a casual, urban lifestyle. And while Brisbane is yet to reach the sophistication or chic of Melbourne and Sydney there is still a lot to love about the city's burgeoning boutique way of dressing. If you look hard enough, you'll find a few designers who are exploring a sharper way to dress.

We love about Lubanci because designer Jess Chatterton's viewpoint; the clothes are an exploration of relationships between texture, shape, and materials.
