Australian
design duo Anna Plunkett and Luke Sales behind Romance Was Born, have once again exceeded fashion
heights with their pre-collection Miraculous Mundane. Miraculous indeed, the
duo have drawn inspiration from psychedelic Willy Wonka and dreamlike
Australian artist Stephen Bush to create a whirlwind of colour, candy and
chaos.
Art
and fashion have always been closely knit, and this collection reinforces the
interwoven strength of two incredible forces. Plunkett and Sales have so impeccably unified
nostalgic memories of Willy Wonka tales with the pastel dreamlike works of
Stephen Bush. Linked in their bizarre investigation of imagination and whimsical palette, they are the ideal stimulation for the revolutionary label Romance Was Born.
Plunkett
and Sales forever position Romance Was Born as a confident and innovative
label. Continually experimenting
with colour, pattern, texture, their latest precollection is a strong spirit
of new trends and digital prints.
Miraculous Mundane draws from fairy floss fantasies and lurid rainbow
swirls to produce a surreal yet ideal collection. Reinforcing the
vivid use of colour and print with robust white in strong contoured forms. Furthermore accentuating
free-flowing colourful contours with reflective metallic textures, endless in both
depth and new design.
Your
day could never be dull in a piece from Miraculous Mundane.
