Get excited, because Australian designer Gill Lawrence, who is also the designer for the brand Toi et Moi (Stocked in General Pants) is launching her new label, 'Mad Love'. The label is all about art, as each piece has been developed while travelling the world. Gill Lawrence has worked along side graphic designer Belinda carielli on a number of projects; and they have teamed up again, as Belinda is the contributing artist for Gill's new label 'Mad Love.'This first Summer Collection was created while in Mexico; which is why we ventured to the 'famous' Burrito Company in Bondi to shoot their first look book. Indeed the Mexican fiesta theme surrounded us; with Mexican flags draped from the walls, accompanied by skulls, dream catchers, bold colour coated walls, bottles of tequila, quirky artwork and of course the smell of the restaurant's famous burritos that lingered in the air. I had the pleasure of being invited to this shoot, to give you guys a sneak peek of the 'Aztec America meets Pop Art' style clothing. Oversized tee's and singlets, maxi skirts, playsuits, dresses and cute shorts, are just some pieces that are featured in the collection, which boasts colour and contrasting graphic patterns. Sit back and relax and take a glimpse into what is to come in the fun and edgy world of 'Mad Love........'Where love is mad like me'.
