Positively chic



What a beautiful spread MüCKE got in the Weekender Magazine in Noosa.

Looking Forward



Yesterday I worked in my studio from 9am to 9pm, with a headache that had lasted two days. Despondent. Frustrated. Exhausted and tired knowing this would not be the last of the long days. I've been preparing new ladies pants and tops, organising my workshop that will all be in our pop-up store come the launch of ENVELOPE MüCKE on Wednesday 17th March.

Today I awoke, headache free! I've been sewing scarves (see splat scarf pictured) and feeling excited about all the colours, the soft feel of the wool and how much I love wearing them come the colder winter weather. Aaah, how good it feels to be inspired again.

Participating in exhibitions is something that helps me as a sustainable design practitioner to push my ideas and creativity. These little rings and necklaces were created using recycled t-shirts and draw on memories of things found in vending machines as youngster.
