Behind the scenes on our latest shoot.

We have been super busy bunnies with all these shoots lately but this one was extra special! This was for promotional use featuring some of our new Autumn/Winter clothing and we are particularly excited about the theme of Little Red Ridding Hood featuring on one of our lines.

We don't want to give away too much so here are a few sneaky behind the scenes shots from the day.

Introducing our dashing rockabilly Wolf, Jake Allen.

We welcomed back one of our favourite Collectif models Natasha Olrog, who made the perfect Little Red Riding Hood and worked wonderfully with Jake as it turned out they are childhood friends, small world huh?

We also got to use some pretty amazing props such as these adorable glittery bunnies that Collectif's Julia just casually had laying around, as you do.

In between outfit changes, Tara, Nicole and Julia managed to entertain themselves.

Tara and Julia are wearing our best selling Flamingo blouse and Nicole is wearing the Fairy dress (click to buy!).

By far the most exciting prop was this gorgeous Suzuki motor bike leant by Tara's lovely friend Chris (Thank you Chris!)

Time for an outfit change and Nicole is at hand to help Natasha change in to our gorgeous new coat.

Our brilliant photographer Paul and Nicole making final adjustments to the outfit.

We will have the finished pictures very soon but we hope this is enough to get you excited about Collectif's Autumn/Winter collection!

Until next time...

Winter collection shoot.

Good day lovelies. We have been super busy (as usual) the past few weeks, what with the sale, give away and most recently, the photo shoot for the winter collection. We are super excited about the new styles and hope you all will be too! 

here's a sneaky peek from the shoot last week (taken on a mobile phone, sorry for the shabby quality!).

New hibiscus prints!

You can already buy the new sarong dress by clicking on the picture and the Dolores doll will be coming soon. I know these aren't winter but I got a bit over excited at the shoot what with all the fruit and props!

Oh, also we will have the extremely popular Fenela sunglasses back in the next day. So what if it's not even slightly sunny? These babies were made for posing!

More news to come soon gals!
