Behind The Scenes: Our AW21 Collection

___

Captured in the beautiful streets of our home city, Adelaide, by local Fashion Photographer, Haley Renee - Join us as we bar hop through our classic streets and hidden laneways this Autumn with a behind the scenes exclusive for our latest collection.

The campaign embodies a chic European aesthetic to transport you to the bustling alleys of Italy - and always with a glass of vino in hand 

An Aperitivo has got to be our favourite Italian tradition. It's a drink with loved ones that relaxes you after a day of work or prepares you for the night to come. Derived from the Latin aperire, the tradition is meant “to open” the stomach before dining.

We recommend pairing our black and white check collection with our winter aperol spritz!

The Shanty Winter Spritz

3 Ounces Aperol
3 Ounces Prosecco
1 Ounce Cranberry Juice
2 Ounces Club Soda
1 Orange Wedge
1 Orange Zest Twist
1 Sprig Of Rosemary

Combine the aperol, prosecco and cranberry juice in a glass with ice.
Add in an orange wedge and a twist of zest. Top it off with a sprig of rosemary. 

 

 

This Autumn/Winter collection has been designed with a muted palette of blue and natural tones offset with deeper espresso and black + white check. We have aimed for a quintessential mix of sophisticated statement pieces and luxe linens through to cozy knitwear and divine accessories. 

While classic Italian negroni combines campari, gin & vermouth, our winter version is mulled with warm spices...

The Winter Negroni

1/2 Cup Campari
2 Large Oranges (Peeled With A Vegetable Peeler)
8 Star Anise
3 Cinnamon Sticks
2 Teaspoons Pink
Peppercorns (Crushed)
1 Teaspoon Whole Cloves
1/2 Cup Gin
1/2 Cup Sweet Vermouth

In a jar combine the Campari and half of the orange peel.
In a small skillet over medium-low heat, toast the star anise, cinnamon, peppercorns, and cloves until fragrant (about 5 minutes). Transfer the spices to the Campari mixture, cover and shake well.
Allow the Campari to infuse at room temperature overnight.
Use a fine-mesh sieve to strain the infused Campari into a pitcher.
Stir in the gin & sweet vermouth.
Fill 8 old fashioned glasses with ice and top each with about 1/4 cup of the cocktail. Garnish with remaining orange peel.
