Introducing the new KELLYE maxi dress

Introducing the new KELLYE maxi dress

As you know, all my clothes are named for the fat babes who inspire me, and since my friend Kellye is Deaf, it's only right that this dress is introduced in NZSL. Should I have taken some more photos of Kellye in the KELLYE dress as well as filming the video? Absolutely. But I didn't. You've asked for longer skirts and maxi dresses, and I'm happy to finally deliver this for you!

Season Five is here!

Season Five is here!
I’m very proud to bring you my new collection, A Love Letter To Myself. I named it that cos I’ve had a hard time this year – it’s hard to work two jobs even when you love what you do – having issues with suppliers and dealing with criticism (some valid, some not so much) and worrying about money and all that stuff.

"After a year of comfortable vegetation, I wanted to surprise myself. I wanted to be seen.  I just felt this pull inside me that made me know that by doing this, it was the push I needed to start moving through life with a bit more of external confidence again."
