So excited to be finally sharing all the photographs from a morning spent immersed in the Margaret Olley: A Generous Life exhibition at the Gallery of Modern Art (GOMA) at Southbank. The multi-faceted showcase features more than one hundred eclectic works by one of Australia's most beloved painters while celebrating her eccentric life & legacy as an artist, mentor, muse, donor & passionate collector.

For the occasion, I was inspired by Margaret's trail-blazing creativity to wear something that was, quite frankly, completely "out of the box" & different from my usual style - a fawn-coloured, vegan leather midi dress with pin-tucked bust area, puffy sleeves & silver zipper (reminiscent of Myrna Loy's wardrobe in "The Thin Man" films of the 1930s) from avant garde diffusion line, Asos Design, black perforated leather peep-toe booties from Wittner, black suede boxy handbag with oversized silver handles from French Connection to carry all the essentials, a chunky maple wood watch from Montville Woods Gallery & a silver, art-deco-inspired hinged bangle from Precious Stones Jewellers.

Nothing like finishing the morning with a juicy burger for lunch at Brooklyn Depot...
