Another Australian fashion talent!xo. Introducing a little label answering to the name of Metallic Dreamer..............its mother?, Tanya Arlidge.Ever since the immense explosion of the 'statement' pieces and bibs... the fashion accessory world has been inundated with a very edgy option in 'vamping' up your fashion goods.xoxo.
These days.. every fashionista can look left, right and centre.. and you'll find the most outlandish out stylish and outing everywhere neck, shoulder, wrist, ankle, waist and head glamorizing adornments!!!!! "freaking out".... statement piece invasion!xo.
No, but honestly, from the critic tongue of Madam Me... I am a great fan of the statement piece phenomenon. What a clever and great montage to the 'tribal' worlds who have adorned their decolletage with statement pieces since the time of 'way back when'!.Today we see the new breed and new offering of a statement piece... studded, embellished and feathered down and allover.
My attention was drawn to the Metallic Dreamer collection... through a polite whisper thrown my way at a recent event. Very diligent am I... I immediately went into critic investigation mode.......................
I love the portrayal of the Metallic Dreamer pieces... the story is definately not one to be toyed with. Her interpretation is to be bold, serious and stylish all in a very 'strong feminine tone'.
My vision : Metallic Dreamer can either style a simple outfit 'up'.... or add to the 'up' of an already styled up outfit! ( get it????.. I think you do!).xo.
Ms Tanya's style reminds me very much of a certain Gail Reid type style... very raw and bold, except of course Gail Reid is the creative behind Gail Sorronda.. and of course specialises in garments plus the odd accessory.... but without side tracking myself, back to Metallic Dreamer.
Yes, yes, yes...my critic tongue has a prediction ( peering directly into my beautiful vintage parfum crystal bottle of course!!!xo) that Metallic Dreamer will be bursting onto the fashion scene in full force this year!!!, already it has a fan following and stocked nationally... however... it's not yet 'big' if you know what I mean..........Metallic Dreamer will only be recognised as being fashionable and not exactly your classy offering,.. classy is the stuff Chelsea De Luca produces.
There is nothing wrong with being categorised as being 'fashionable'... it simply means.. it will be in the moment, for the moment. Hopefully once the statement piece phenomenon fades..... Metallic Dreamer will continue to produce other accessory offerings and evolve quite eloquently in it's own style.......xoxoxo.
