Australian Fashion?

[Guest SnookiePink]

yes yes yes~

i agree. asians= cute, yet stylish.

then theres the aussies, which aim for the sexy and hot look.

ALSO. the muzza style .___.' full on fluro.

haha!

I'm Aus but I don't try to dress 'sexy or hot', I'd say I'm heavily influenced by European fashion, love to dress kind of cute yet sophisticated plus elegant! (I'm not 100% Australian either.)

Not really getting into some of the trends at the moment; but the gladiator sandals are quite cute I have to say!

[Guest lovetoday.]

australian? ._.

the australian where i live wear like .. tracksuits that has " CCC " on it & just a singlet?

or .. maybe double the singlet? or something & for guys they wear that bag that you use for tagging.

ohyeh, AF1S & rabens are in .

[Guest eternaldarkness4]

seriously noone cares about what they wear

just stick with basics

t shirt shorts/jeans

and your done

i hate the trends.... you end up looking stupid

those ugly white shoes = = and the emerging gladiator shoes

[Guest twig*star]

Asians are not ahead in fashion and frankly have never been ahead in fashion. They copy the europeans ......

Marc Jacobs isn't european. nor is a lot of the designers who do shows at NY fashion week.

Yeah, i forgot America existed. Big richard simmons country and for some reason i had a mind blank. Sorry. >_< But either way, I don't believe Asia to be ahead of these places in terms of fashion ...... That said, i think it's hilarious that Asians in western countries are such fabulous designers.

I see many Giseles in stores and Gladiators everything (flats, heels)

Supre is so overrated. I hate that store. Someone needs to burn their neon colour clothes --"

Check the stores of Bardot, Sportsgirl, Novo (most my shoes come from here), Betts, Myer etc.

- Lenaa

I hate Sportsgirl .... And Novo shoes seriously kill my feet. They're really hard like blades cutting into my skin, and trust me, i once got huge watery blisters for a month for fashion so it's not like i'm a pansy .....

yes yes yes~

noooo ..... maybe the internationals from Asia are stylish but not the Australian born ones. They out-dag the Aussies even .... hahaha and i bought some fluoro on a black background dress. it looks scene but i'm too ashamed to wear it outside the house .....

[Guest aeroshaastranger :)]

hi (: are there any flea markets and thrift stores ( eg. ross in america) in MELBOURNE??

CCC I think is Combined Catholic Colleges. They represent their school in a sports tournament of Catholic schools.

Interesting! I knew highschool was good for something.

Supre - don't go there. The clothes aren't very nice. They are too plain for me.

Target - personally not recommended if you want more fashionable and a better variety of clothing style. It's supposed to be cheap and it is a big discount outlet but I don't think it's that cheap.

Sportsgirl - I don't go there much, but it's a bit expensive. In my standards, $30 AUD for one item of clothing is expensive.

Anyway, I'm not from Melbourne but there should be lots of clothing stores that sell for less than $35.

National clothing stores that should be in all states of Australia.

Edit// I'll give you the address to the stores in Melbourne.

-Valley girl (girly clothing and cheap)

Shop 2001, Highpoint Shopping Centre

120 Rosamond Rd, Maribyrnong, VIC 3032

(03) 9317 3600

-Temt (similar style to Valley Girl)

Shop GD 063, 211 Latrobe St

Melbourne, VIC 3000

-Jay Jays (for guys and girls)

There's about 10 stores in Melb. I'll give you one of them.

658 Church St

Cremorne, VIC 3121

(03) 9420 0200‎

-Cotton On (for guys and girls)

Same for this one. There's a few stores.

138 Bridge Rd

Richmond, VIC 3121

(03) 9428 4244

Hope that helped.

actually. i disagree. A LOT of the internationals from Asia from USYD make pretty questionable fashion choices - some quite inappropriate, others - i actually wonder if they dressed in the dark. In fact, the majority of ABCs i know dress rather well and definitely do not 'out-dag' the Aussies - not sure which ABCs you've encountered.

though i will agree with the asian designers in western countries comment - two of my favourite designers: alexander wang and phillip lim

those ugly white shoes = = and the emerging gladiator shoes

are you talking about rabens?

if so, i totally agree.

[Guest <3 Kim]

Lately I've been seeing so many people wearing short shorts at uni :/

But I did remember in winter it was trench coats and those long boots

[Guest mika.16]

gladiator sandals/heels...

floral

lacey

ruffles

chiffon-y flowy material

simple short dresses

CCC I think is Combined Catholic Colleges. They represent their school in a sports tournament of Catholic schools.

isnt the CCC a brand..?

Canterbury, they make jerseys and sportswear...

[gabbstar]

people in my school wear those white rabens for sport O_O

mostly the non asians though =/

[Guest eternaldarkness4]

yes those hideous rabens = =

looks like they're running around in socks .....or granny shoes or slippers

then they start colouring them in with fluro highlighters <.<

[Guest rnb.edge_]

I doubt there's AN Australian fashion...it's all different and depends on where you're from. Sydney and Melbourne are more asian-based compared to other states. I've seen some asians follow non-asian trends and it looks...alright. Asian girls from around Melbourne wear petite clothes, e.g. long trench coats, skinny jeans, t-shirts, etc. For asian guys...well, it'd depend on the age - older teens wear a tartan-like shirt with baggy jeans, younger teens go for the full-on baggy gangster clothes/look o.O

centubury cantubury pft however you spell them..

[Guest kandi]

lol. awkward.

yeh ive never heard of ccc.

[Guest anna12125]

Australian fashion follows asian fashion pretty closely i assume. What you see off the racks in Japan or hk will appear like a year or two later in Australia. It hurts my eyes what ppl wear here sometimes, seriously. I just wish they had more brand name stores than everyday stores like Jayjays, or sportsgirl, or cotton on or Supre which is yuck yuck yuck

I want a H&M -________-

[Guest mika.16]

CCC isnt well-known for the brand,

but i guarantee ALOT of the yr 12 jerseys are made by them so alot of ppl wear CCC without realising! lol

i want a H&M too but its also an 'everyday store' from other countries.

there are brand boutiques but their usually hidden somewhere.

[Guest twinkle_l0ve]

^ I agree, sportsgirl is a rip
