Who is Danni Truter – Meet the NYC Insider

Who is Danni Truter – Meet the NYC Insider

Passionate about life, Danni Truter prefers to remain never wondering. Packing up everything in Melbourne, Australia to make the big move to New York, she is now considered an international transplant in New York City.

Working in fashion for over 4 years, she has developed a love and addiction for the ‘crazyiness’ that is the industry. Originally studying to be a psychologist, she was easily swooned by the creativity of the fashion industry after volunteering at some of the counties major fashion festivals. Going on to study in Communications and PR, her hard work and dedication to everything she does, landed her roles in managing the PR and marketing for two of the countries top boutique retailers, Kookai and Calibre.

With the need to experience the industry on a more international level, Danni set her sights on NYC. Now living in the heart of the Lower East Side, this Aussie-come-New-Yorker, has surrounded herself with an ever-evolving, always-fascinating hub of style and fashion. Now as StyleHunter.com’s latest NYC Insider, get ready for Danni’s adventure and exclusive look into everything NYC!

Qantas appoints Melbourne designer Martin Grant as the uniform designer.

Melbourne designer Martin Grant has been appointed by Qantas as the next Australian designer to develop the airline’s new uniform.

Grant, who launched his first ready to wear collection 30 years ago in 1982, is currently based in Paris, and will replace Peter Morrissey in creating concepts for the new uniform for cabin crew and uniformed employees.

Grant said it was an honour to be selected as the new Qantas uniform designer.

“As an Australian, I’m proud to be working with such an iconic Australian brand. It will be wonderful to see the Qantas teams wearing my design across Australia and in cities all over the world,” he said.

“I’ve already had the opportunity to engage with a number of employees across the business and I look forward to working with them again as we develop the uniform.”

Qantas aims to have its international and domestic cabin crew and ground staff sporting the new design in 2014.

We can’t wait to see it!

Josh Goot and Dion Lee Pull the pin on MBFWA 2012

Josh Goot and Dion Lee Pull the pin on MBFWA 2012

We heard the roumors, thought something was a miss but it seems Josh Goot and Dion Leehave pulled the pin on showcasing their Spring Summer 2012/13 collections at MBFWA.

In a press release issued today, Josh Goot said:

“This is the right decision for the Josh Goot brand, business and team. We’ve had an amazing response to Spring Summer 2012, and I think it’s important that we consolidate our position, rather than rush into a new collection to show at MBFWA. The entire studio and I want to focus on the Resort collection without the distraction of a show.

I believe strongly in Australian Fashion Week as an important initiative that strengthens our domestic fashion story. I hope to participate in the event in the years to come.”

Dion says, “I have presented solo shows at Australian Fashion Week for the past three years and each of these have been of great benefit to my business in terms of building its profile on a local and international level. I hope to return to the Australian show schedule in the near future.”

Lets just hope this isn’t a trend

My top picks for Coachella 2012 – LA, Sophia Banks – Coloma

My top picks for Coachella 2012 – LA, Sophia Banks – Coloma

Music festival season is fast approaching and first on our list is Coachella! Three days of absolute music madness held in the Indio desert, Coachella is known for their fabulously stylish festival goers, so major outfit planning is crucial! I have picked out my must-haves so that you can be ready from head to toe, without the headache of hunting down these stylish essentials.

When Mara Hoffman, the queen of boho it-girl chic, made this easy button down tank dress she must have had Coachella in mind! I am absolutely living for the bursts of neon and tribal print.

Jamison Ankle boot by Dolce Vita- the perfect festival boot, low enough so you aren’t too hot and simple enough that they will go with everything, jeans, dresses…you name it!

Brightly colored Deborah Marquit bras, wear with a Alexander Wang tee or tank so that the color peeks through for a fun and unexpectedly sexy look.

We are MAJOR Tom Binns’ fans over here at team SBC!! This paint-splashed rhodium-plated black Swarovski crystal necklace is an accessory we are LIVING for! This statement piece looks amazing with a classic white button dow, jeans and boots.

Sass & Bide’s over embellished short is as stylish as it is practical for the heat. Wear them with an off the shoulder, solid color tee and wedges

Walking through festival crowds, you don’t want to be lugging around a big bag! Etro’s badass tribal-inspired leather clutch is the perfect size for all your Coachella essentials!

Ray-Ban’s iconic clubmaster sunglasses are a retro-chic choice! Wear this half-frame style for a  vintage vibe.

The Empire Sequin One Piece swimsuit by One Teaspoon plays double duty as a cool, pool-ready top. I am in love the sequin detailing! Wear it with cutoff jean shorts and layered necklaces.
