Designer Plans Chaos At Fashion Week


Prepare For Chaos - That's What Designer Lucie Boshier Says She Is Planning For NZ Fashion Week This Year.

No stranger to controversy, the Auckland-based designer has in previous years distributed leaflets questioning the direction and morals of the fashion industry.

Last year a flyer showing a cartoon-esque figure - looking remarkably like Karl Lagerfield - positioned behind a skinny, pale model bent over snorting cocaine got the fashion industry's hackles up.

Although she's taken part in the public events at fashion week this will be her first year showing to those all-important overseas buyers.

Boshier says she is excited about the prospect of buyers from outside of New Zealand seeing her collection.

"Sometimes people come into my shop and look round and walk out and I think - you just don't get this, I know there's a much bigger market out there."

Boshier says that the run up to Fashion Week has been ‘crazy'.

Also said that “I thought sorting out the seating would be easier - I was saying to everyone - yeah I can find you a seat and then Fashion Week takes 40 seats for sponsors and then there are the buyers...and now I'm not sure I can fit everyone in."

All of Boshier's clothes are manufactured in New Zealand.

Inspiration for the latest collection is the musical Caberet.

"The collection is based on the Liza Minnelli character in the film - and we're going to have girls coming out of giant champagne glasses."

Sounds like the Lucie Boshier show will be a very interesting experience.
