Arts on the Runway Sydney

ART ON THE RUNWAY IS CONTEMPORARY ART Festival DRIVEN BY FASHION?

Even though the image above is from 2012 exhibition, I was particularly drawn to it and wanted to find out a little bit more. This collaboration was presented by Harper's BAZAAR, working with a panel of creators and commentators including the likes of photographer Derek Henderson, journalist and author Mitchell Oakley Smith, writer Alison Kubler, and stylist Tiana Wallace.

G1, G2, G3 (greens) Vegetable Juices


ROOTS & BULBS
Apparently according to Sarah Cadji founder of Roots & Bulbs, anything cooked over 40 degrees kills enzymes.

We eat a lot of processed and over cooked foods in our busy lifestyles and we do not realise these foods have lost their natural enzymes this means they do not contain enough nutrients, but juicing is the easiest way of getting back all the nutrients back into our system. Raw fruits and vegetables help nurture your body enzymes.

Sarah is a Health blogger and launched her own a juice brand. She has recently opened her own shop on Marylebone high street, and is usually there to help give advice and suggestions.

Vika Gazinskaya Russian Designer

Though I have never been to Russian, i've always intrigued by their expensive yet impeccable taste I would love to visit Moscow someday to see the amazing Architecture, colours, Russian Winters. I have been obsessed with the country most especially after watching the movie xXx, you know, starring Vin Diesel? The night club scene in that movie was crazy and I had wanted to experience exactly that sort of night out.


However when it coms to the fashion I have to say the Russians are on another level, I have been reading a lot of blogs,  Russian Vogue, and i'm a big fan of Mira Duma, a former editor of Haarpers Bazaar Russia who now writes for a number of other Russian fashion publications. 
I have recently come across a young designer called Vika Gazinskaya. And I am obsessing with her work.

Vika last catwalk collection on her website was Spring/Summer 2011-2012 but I have come across more collections including her Autumn/Winter 2012 collection and Spring/Summer 2013 through research on the internet. I hope she keeps going and would love to own her outfits someday. I particularly love her Sweaters with the wood diamonds with magnetic gems that can be moved around. Amazing, hope you like her work too

Enjoy!
