ANT!PODiUM IS AB-FAB!

ANT!PODiUM’s latest Spring/Summer 2010 collection entitled ‘Ab-Fab’ has just hit FSX stores. London based Aussie designer Geoffrey J. Finch is known for creating effortlessly cool clothes, and this collection is no exclusion. With his use of sheer, soft fabrics and colour palette, Finch creates easy to wear clothes that are laid back, while still retaining an air of sophistication.

This season, Finch has collaborated with Aboriginal artists from Western Australia, creating a quirky and unexpected range of accessories including a hand knitted beanie and Lizard Stole by Ruby McIntosh of the Wadjarri tribe. His prints also seem to be influenced by his outback adventures, with reference to Dreamtime paintings and touches of flannel throughout.

ABOVE: 'Flannie' Knotted Shirt $169, 'Tucker' Tank $115, 'Dreamtime' Skirt, 'Flannie Shirtdress $219, Corroboree Dress $299, Outback Sleeved Dress $219.
