Lex's Ladies #1 - Backburn in the City

1/6/2017

 
A few weeks ago we gathered a few of our amazing friends and dressed them in the Backburn collection for the first of our Lex's Ladies series. We want to use these series to show how others style and adapt the collections to suit their personal style, as well as showcasing the clothing on body shapes beyond the usual model type. Our great friend and collaborator Hellene Algie joined us to capture the shots below.

I could wear it all day and into the night...

Tamara is a ceramic artist and burlesque performer, whose feminine and simple style translates easily into Backburn pieces. Tamara wears the Before the Fire Skirt in size 12, and the Before the Fire Tunic top in size 10.
She says - 
​"The Backburn collection is not just beautiful but also comfortable! I could wear it all day and into the night, the fabric feels so lush against the skin and I love knowing that it's ethically made."

Miela is a fashion student, who has experience in the world of professional models. With her youthful style, her look is a statement outfit for a big night out. We paired our Before the Fire Pants in size 12 with the Firebreak top in size 10.
She says - 
"Not only do the prints of alexis, eclectic's Blackburn collection have a stunning graphic quality, but to me tell a conceptual story about regeneration and resilience. They are beautiful inside and out."

Isobel is a singer and wine ​connoisseur, with her day job in an office. With this in mind, her outfit is slightly pared back matching her own blouse and jacket with our Firebreak Skirt in size 10, and adding a hint of print with the After the Fire scarf around the neck.
​Isobel says - 
"Quirky but classy, you can flaunt this collection anywhere from the office to the Opera House. The cuts are so damn comfy, I could probably jump straight into bed afterwards"
...​the clothes are so versatile, which of course suits versatile people."

Marlena is a professional cabaret/circus performer and producer, running The Oyster Club a monthly cabaret night. As a non-binary person, their regular style is quite androgynous, which was easy to translate using our slim cut Pants in size 14 and our classic Blouse in size 10, both in After the Fire print.
​They say - 
"As someone who lives a more 'alternative' life, I often find it hard to dress appropriately for meetings with high end clients, and sponsors. I find alexis, eclectic dress shirts and trousers to be the perfect outfit for my situation. The prints are unique and exquisite, and the fabric is so high quality and feels fantastic. I feel like I'm ready to do business, but I'm also an artist.
Besides wearing this outfit to meetings, I'd also wear it to gallery openings, dinner parties, cocktail parties, and to see performances. Something quite special about alexis, eclectic is that the clothes are so versatile, which of course suits versatile people."
