The fact that anyone is reading this is a victory for me.
The following collection is one that has been in the making ever since I was a 13 year old kid putting drawings of sad clowns and skulls onto t-shirt transfer paper. Though the designs you’ll see on display are a culmination of what I’ve have been working on since the beginning of this year, the Curls brand is something I’ve dreamt of creating for so long it’d make your head spin. I’ve already had so much support prior to this release, so thank you to everyone who’s already purchased some Curls gear or supported my work through social media. You are all the greatest people in the world. Curls is all about having fun and making a million and one mistakes.
There has been so many amazing people that have contributed to making this lookbook happen and I’m so thankful to them. Never underestimate the people you meet because they just might end up adding their little missing puzzle piece of expertise to an amazing cause. I, along with even more people than before, are currently putting our heads together to create and plan the next collection which falls in the best season of all; summer. Even if you’re not a fan I promise you will be after you see what we have in store. Lots of love, Aaron Grech (creator of Curls Apparel, weenie by trade) “

Thanks to: Firstly to Chantelle; thank you so so much for approaching me with the proposition to shoot these photos. None of this would of been possible with out the time you dedicated towards this. Your work has turned something I could have only dreamt into something I can look at for the rest of my life. You’ve created the most amazing and professional beginning in the world. Aleks; what can I say. You’re not the Adam to my Eve, thank you for the behind the scenes photography which featured on Youth in Revolt’s blog. You and Chantelle are friends for life. To Alana and Stephen, you guys made my clothes look a hundred times better than when I wear them, thank you for looking absolutely ballin’. To Nicole, you’ve put ridiculous amounts of thought and time into getting behind everything I’ve been putting into Curls, I’m always so honoured when you suggest or promote anything to do with my work. I can literally never thank you enough. To everyone who has bought something from Curls, you are the most amazing people in the world and you’re all getting lots of amazing expensive watches if I becoming filthy rich (we can dream). To my friends who have worn, bought or shown enthusiasm to my clothes and designs. Your support means so much. Finally to my lovely Lizzi; you made it quite clear you wanted a mention in this. Here it is; I love you to bits. You bring out all the craziness in me and don’t try to make me hide it.
