Hua Designs

Went on a road trip with the girls on Saturday to Springvale. Azamat would say "dont you need a passport to get there?". We bravely ventured into the Springvale shopping centre in search of a restaurant for lunch. If you thought Footscray was bad, Springvale is 10 times busier. The cars and people have no concept of road rules. People cross the streets when they feel like it and cars are reversing and double parking all over the place. I felt like I was in KL! We had a nice lunch with both Princess Model and Swing Sister hung over from the night before. Princess Model was ok before we had lunch but decided to have a late hangover reaction right after lunch.

After lunch we made our way to visit The Designer. SJ and I were supposed to pay her a visit to show her the material Piggy had sent us for the bridesmaid's dresses. Piggy sent over a whole heap of fuschia coloured satin material for us to be creative and come up with something that would suit our dresses. But our initial mission soon became a shopping expedition which included Princess Model and Swing Sister. When we got to The Designer's warehouse, everyone went sick! We spent more than 3 hours there just trying things on like it was all going out of fashion. The Designer's label, Hua, is ultra eccentric and unique. Many of the pieces are a big challenge to put on. Uniquely designed in a way that certain pieces can be worn 10 different ways. Kind of like my ultimate black dress. I personally think The Designer's clothes are quite funky. Very runway, catwalk pieces, just not sure if anyone would wear them out on a regular day. Having said that, I left the warehouse with a lovely green jacket and a black dress. Princess Model did the most damage and spent over $1200 on maybe 8 or 9 pieces. Out of control! I'm quite happy with my purchases, now just cant wait to wear them.
