Tluxe icon of the week

Posted by Verity Magdalino · March 19, 2013

Who: Anjelica Huston, 1970s fashion icon, Halston favourite, Oscar-winning actress and Jack Nicholson's better half during most of the '70s and '80s.

Her look: Anjelica's super cool style in her '70s hey day favoured asymmetrical dresses in bold jewel tones, monochrome trouser suits, scarlet red lips and fine, arched eyebrows, which continue to be her signature look today.

How to wear it now: Slip into a draped top with a cowl neckline like our silky Saffron number and team it with slim-fit pants or leggings. Pointed flats are the perfect new season touch.

Your soundtrack to the week...

Here at Tluxe HQ this week we'll be mostly listening to the soulful sounds of Donald Byrd's classic Places and Spaces album. Our particular favourite track today being Flight Time, which beautifully reflects in music our current mood and the ideas behind our new autumn/winter collection, The Journey. Enjoy!

Inspire me... Art Month Sydney

Posted by Verity Magdalino · March 04, 2013

As the first days of autumn roll in we're feeling the culture today at Tluxe HQ, and what better way to spend a rainy weekend like the one we've just experienced here in Sydney, than traipsing around the art galleries for a little inspiration. This week heralds the start of Art Month, and personally we're loving the after hours gallery openings, which usually involve a cocktail or two alongside your culture.

This week the galleries of Paddington and Woollahra open up Thursday, March 7 as part of a series of 'Precinct Nights', followed by art spaces in Waterloo and Alexandria on Friday, March 8. We're loving Helen Mueller's hand cut woodblock prints of a melaleuca forest at the Brenda May gallery, pictured, and Caroline Rothwell's images of endangered Australian animals made from the black carbon residue collected from exhaust pipes.

This is the week, people, that our new autumn/winter collection lands online! Now’s the time to update your wardrobe with a hint of cool blue teal, the relaxed silhouette of a printed shift dress, the hot new shape of our cropped trousers, or the cocooning softness of one of this season’s essential pieces, the easy-to-wear cape.

Made from pure Australian wool and trimmed with the lux touch of silk, we pride ourselves that our cape, like the rest of our collection, is made and designed wholly in Australia from natural, sustainable fabrics. This means it not only feels amazing against your skin, it supports local makers and industry, and with less air miles to travel from our studio to your wardrobe, ensures we leave as little an imprint on our environment as possible so you can look great and feel great too.

At home with Tluxe

Ok, so this is not exactly where we live, but it's on our wish list of dream homes and interiors. And with the cooler change in the air today, and the imminent arrival of autumn/winter collection online, we're feeling the love for the cosy fireside at Rose Seidler House. A mid-century modern gem hidden in one of the leafier parts of Sydney its original 1950s interior still feels contemporary. Architect Harry Seidler built it for his mother and its open plan design and feeling of bringing the outside indoors heralded a new aesthetic, which has become almost standard in many architect-designed Australian homes today. And the best part? You can visit Rose in all her originally furnished glory on any Sunday you like. Pure. Modernist. Magic.
