EWEN BELL

In my 16 years as a journalist I have rarely been lost for words. But I find this editor’s letter difficult to write – looking out to the MCG from my apartment, with seats that will be empty, learning of friends’ businesses that are struggling, and speaking to Melburnians who run restaurants and entertainment venues who are unsure what the future holds. We hope this edition brings some enjoyment. And if you use it after reading as spare toot paper, I’d be nothing less than pleased. Our website will be regularly updated with locally-focused stories. ●

T

he impact of COVID-19 is vast and continues to unfold by the minute. We’ve been hit with rolling cancellations, closures and postponements, all of which are essential – especially to protect our most vulnerable – but it’s still just a tiny bit crushing.

Is Melbourne even Melbourne without the Comedy Festival? That said, there’s plenty on that you can experience from home to help keep chins up and hands occupied.

The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra (MSO) has ensured that we’re not left in a cultural chasm by live-streaming concerts during the ban on public events. Starting with Rimsky-Korsakov’s Scheherazade, based on The Arabian Nights, which the MSO streamed from Hamer Hall on the eve of the Arts Centre closure.

While they played to an empty concert hall, by the next morning nearly 35,000 people had watched online from every continent, except Antarctica.

The MSO will broadcast weekly from its YouTube channel and, from the orchestra’s perspective, the decision was a no-brainer.

“I’m someone who learnt long ago that you actually can transform a challenge into an opportunity, and the MSO has been engaging in this community for more than 100 years,” Sophie Galaise, the MSO’s managing director, says.

“We really believe in community engagement and being embedded in our community. We reach a lot of people every year – nearly 400,000 – but there was so much opportunity to reach more.”

It’s a bold plan that’s been well received, evidenced by the flurry of pictures Galaise has received since of people watching the concert from their living rooms with the whole family.

“I was looking for a way to keep the orchestra going,” Galaise says. “I could see around the world orchestras, operas and ballets forced to close, and I was talking to my colleagues in Japan, China and Spain.

“One after the other they were going dark, which is the most depressing thing when you’re an artist.

At the same time, I think we have an obligation to our audience. In times of duress, music has the power to heal and help.”

Other outfits, like Laneway Learning – the host of an eclectic and fun program of inexpensive night

classes ranging from pasta-making to macrame – have made the carefully considered decision to remain open.

For Laneway Learning, this means running small group workshops from its CBD premises only, subject to heightened precautions (including extra cleaning and a limit on class numbers to allow for appropriate social distancing).

“There’s a necessity to do something and continue life,” says Maria Yebra, one of Laneway Learning’s general managers. “It’s not business as usual, because it’s definitely not, but we need to try to control panic. Art, learning and education help.”

If and when the time comes to close the doors, Laneway Learning is gearing up to move online.

“There’ll be interactive classes that we’ll run as part of a sort of ‘stay-at-home festival’,” Yebra says.

In this case, the proposal is to run the classes via the Zoom conferencing portal. “It will mean that the students and teacher can interact and connect,” Yebra says.

“With isolation, we need to connect in order to look after people’s mental wellbeing.”

Similarly, Anna Go-Go (proprietress of Anna’s Go-Go Academy) has already shifted gears, taking her weekly pub dance classes into the virtual realm.

“We have the technology these days that we didn’t have even a few years ago,” she says.

“We can still dance, be together and connect, but just in a bit more of a technological way.” ●

Fashion looks closer to home The coronavirus pandemic is prompting designers to examine their supply chains and focus more closely on Australian input.

“Made in Melbourne has always been a priority in my business, for many reasons – quality, efficiency, ethically, sustainably and, importantly, to support a wonderful industry that is predominantly made up of women, many who are migrants and refugees. I see us as a team,” Barron says.

But there’s reason for some concern, too.

“As we don’t have a fashion textile industry in Australia, most fabrics are produced overseas,” Barron says. “My business model is to order fabrics pre-season in readiness for sampling and bulk manufacturing. So, for this current winter, I have made and produced the collection. All we need now is for it to sell.

“Many of my fabrics are from France and Italy with a few embroideries from China. The next summer collection sample range is complete except for a few embroideries being held up in China due to the controls and now a backlog in the mills.

“Being smaller and agile in times like this is very helpful, but there are still rents and wages to pay so business must continue.”

B JOE ARMAO

ith the Virgin Australia Melbourne Fashion Festival cut short this month due to the COVID-19 pandemic, life has certainly changed, but it’s also left many wondering what the outbreak means for the Australian fashion industry.

Some designers will need to rethink reliance on overseas production while others are counting their blessings that they manufacture locally. What’s more, it’s an opportunity to trade the international high and fast fashion websites for local production and get back to basics.

In an eerily pre-emptive discussion during the Fashion Summit at VAMFF, three Australian designers sat together on stage to discuss risk and reputation.

Rebecca Vallance, Mary-Lou Ryan (one half of sustainable brand Bassike) and Margie Woods of Viktoria & Woods were asked about how to prepare for a pandemic and what it meant for their respective fashion houses.

“My fabrics are made in Italy and manufacturing is in China,” Vallance said at the event.

“We got our drops until April delivered before Chinese New Year which was great, so that’s fine, but now we face pre-fall – our biggest drop of the year in October – and we’re facing delays of up to two weeks. It’s a real wait and see.”

Copenhagen Fashion Summit founder Eva Kruse also spoke of the fashion industry’s growth trajectory, predicting an 81 per cent growth in volume by 2030 – and that’s not just in turnover.

“We are going to be 9 billion people on the planet and the demand for clothes will be increasing,” Kruse told the VAMFF gathering, sounding hopeful.

“It’s a good thing for those in business; there will be more bodies to dress.”

She said we were buying more, owning 60 per cent more clothing that we did 50 years ago and using it half of the time.

“The future is simply not possible; we’re already using one and a half planets in natural resources and, looking ahead, we need three planets to keep us sustained ... we have to rethink our business model,” Kruse said.

Climate urgency aside, we’re now faced with the reality that this pandemic has given us the pill we didn’t want to swallow. With it comes the suggestion that supporting local is a model we should have never turned our back on.

Melbourne fashion designer Lisa Barron is certainly concerned about the pandemic and what it means for retail, but she’s confident the industry will get through.

Designers Deborah Sams and Mary-Lou Ryan of sustainable brand Bassike, opposite; designer Estelle Michaelides of Melbourne’s Micky In The Van, above.

assike’s Ryan says it is too hard to gauge the impact that the pandemic will have on her label, but its stores are still open and the online business doing well.

“We make over 90 per cent of our collection in Australia, so we are really fortunate that we haven’t been impacted from a supply chain perspective, as this was the initial concern within the local industry when the virus was predominantly in China,” Ryan says.

“As customers increase caution there’s been a natural shift in foot-traffic in stores to our online business.”

Bassike sources fabrics from Italy and Japan with all organic jersey produced in Melbourne, and the label’s co-founder Deborah Sams knows some delay of fabric deliveries might occur. “At this stage we’re yet to see what that will be and when, but know [that] the way through it will be in how agile we are in responding,” Sams says.

“We make over 90 per cent of our collection in Australia, so we are really fortunate that we haven’t been impacted ...”

LOUIE DOUVIS

“We have been made aware that all of the mills that we work with in Italy are still fully operating.”

Woods, who has been in business for 16 years, says business is still going strong. At VAMFF, she spoke of winter collections that rely on fabrics from Italy (that’s coats and blazers) but her label is entirely made in Australia.

“There’s so much reliance on off-shore, I think this is a good opportunity for local business,” Woods told the fashion summit.

“Our knitwear is made in Melbourne and we quickly geared up our Australian suppliers and manufacturers to increase their capacity for us.”

Local designers Julie Goodwin, Nevada Duffy, Kara Baker, and Estelle Michaelides of Micky In The Van showed their Melbourne-made collections to VIP guests at the Westin in a unveiling of a new kind – an intimate showing with fewer than 30 guests in the room, up close and personal with the creations. It was clever thinking, before social distancing was a thing.

According to Michaelides, being made locally means her business is open as usual.

“I haven’t got any issues with manufacturing, but the best part through all this is that makers who once sourced from overseas are now looking towards local makers,” Michaelides says.

Her collection is made to order, allowing six to 10 weeks for delivery.

“Our world is slowing down, literally, and it’s rather reflective of the philosophy that my business encompasses, and aspects of slow fashion. My clients have always been happy to wait, but as my client base grows so too does the appreciation of my slow craft,” she says.

Some of her most loved Micky In The Van designs will need some tweaking, with her fan favourite MITV knitted ribbed waist bands unable to proceed due to yarn being made in China. But overall, she’s holding on the positives in uncertain times.

“I’ve always been crusading the importance of shopping local, ensuring our city is self-sustainable and understanding that when you buy local, your bucks stay on our shores making our economy more fruitful,” Michaelides says.

“The pandemic has finally forced us to open our eyes and respect what we have locally.

“To see the fashion landscape finally make this shift is so liberating – it’s a feeling of victory. If we all did one small thing, made one small change, purchased with intent and purpose, the ripple effect would be vast.” ●

COVER STORY Meat lovers are getting a taste for Melbourne’s first vegan butcher.

ELIANA SCHOULAL

T

he silver trays are piled with rippling mince, glistening sausages and mounds of beef burgers. Behind the glass cabinet smiling staff in hospitality-style black aprons (no bloodsoaked coveralls here) offer recipe suggestions to customers from as far afield as Tasmania. Yes, it’s a butcher’s shop – but not as we know it.

Amanda Lethlean and Matt Sipala opened The KYND Butcher in Ascot Vale just before last Christmas. Its billing as Melbourne’s first plantbased butcher was controversial from the get-go, even provoking heated discussion on Melbourne talkback radio. But the business partners, who met when Sipala became Lethlean’s personal trainer, make no apologies for the name.

“It’s a conversation – some people like it and other people are very uncomfortable with it,” Lethlean acknowledges. But with the store aimed at meat eaters choosing more plant-based meals as much as

at vegans and vegetarians, they wanted customers to know what they were getting, but with a twist.

They settled on The KYND Butcher because the products are cruelty-free, but also because their aim is a kind customer experience. And the spelling?

“It’s an alternative, so an alternative spelling,” Sipala explains.

Lethlean says customers concerned about the environment wanted to reduce their footprint and use less packaging. Products are mostly bought in bulk, customers encouraged to bring their own containers and they don’t stock canned food.

Some are concerned about animal cruelty and not so bothered about additives. Others like Sipala, the overweight kid who’s now a vegan fitness specialist, are “all about nutrition”. So there’s a balance between “clean” wholefoods such as veggie burgers and processed meat substitutes, he says.

Lethlean’s family gave up animal protein for health reasons four years ago and the butchery was her dream. “I had this idea where I would like to walk into a store where I did not have to read labels and could purchase anything in the store.

SUE GREEN

“I wanted it to be local [she lives in Ascot Vale, which also has a vegan bakery and a vegan cake shop] and price competitive.”

She knew she couldn’t do it alone. Sipala, with fitness and nutrition training, would complement her business acumen.

The stats are on their side. Last year Roy Morgan research found 2.5 million Australians – 12.1 per cent – eat all or almost all vegetarian meals, up from 2.2 million in 2014.

“Our customers are mostly people looking to reduce their impact. At Christmas, people from the other side of Victoria came to check it out because they were having a vegan for Christmas and then bought for the whole family,” Sipala says.

Customers are 30 per cent local and 70 per cent from regional Victoria and interstate.

The US Centre for Biotechnology reports health benefits and evidence that those eating large quantities of fruit and vegetables live longer than those who don’t. Sounds like a no-brainer, but Lethlean knows it’s not so easy: “For people of my generation it’s difficult to change your habits.”

The KYND Butcher owners Matt Sipala and Amanda Lethlean, opposite; juicy, plant-based produce, above.

So customers may want to try Mexican chipotle or Italian sun-dried tomato sausages, the bratwurst or even the jackfruit, but not know what to do with them.

Sipala and Lethlean say cooking tips, a weekly recipe and help with that tricky transition is as much their job as selling snags. ● THE KYND BUTCHER \ 113 Union Road, Ascot Vale ● @thekyndbutcher

Cox Architecture’s design combines a retained heritage facade with a modernist, curvilinear addition in brick and steel. Arcade-style glazing will bring the art deco facade to life and connect the street with the bar, lobby and restaurants inside.

The development includes 51 one, two and threebedroom apartments across eight levels with developer Gurner’s first foray into luxury boutique hotels, the Veriu Collingwood Hotel, complementing the residences. Occupants will have access to the hotel’s facilities including concierge, housekeeping, a New York-style bar, and a boardroom.

Atelier’s sunlit residences are designed to maximise northern aspects and city views. Larger residences feature frontages of up to 18 metres – wider than most suburban blocks – with floor-toceiling windows. Each residence includes one to three car parks. ● LIZ McLACHLAN

Nestled deep within its landscaped setting, this impressive freestanding Victorian house with architect-designed extension goes by the name of Pensilva. There’s history in the very bones of this house; it all dates back to the 1800s, when it served as the local mill manager’s home. You can still see traces of that history throughout the building, from its decorative arched hallways to the high ceilings.

The centrepiece of this house is its family/dining room and kitchen, a spacious, light-filled area that opens out to the back deck. In this room you’ll find a timber-slatted feature wall and double-glazed stackers that connect the indoor space with the rear deck and lawn.

A carport and shed complete the backyard.

The modern kitchen is all pale stone surfaces and Bosch appliances, and there’s even more family-living space behind, thanks to the distinct central living room (it hosts a marvellous chandelier).

Behind that you’ll find the large central bathroom.

Highlights in here include a walk-in shower and freestanding bath, all set on natural bluestone floor tiles.

The two downstairs bedrooms complete the ground floor of this house. Both rooms have built-in wardrobes, while one has a built-in desk, too – perfect for any student.

But this is the kind of property that has two centrepieces.

And so it is when you head upstairs and discover the ultimate parents’ retreat. The bedroom up here has its own semi-separate study, a walk-in wardrobe, and the en suite comes with a bath. A trussed timber ceiling adds visual

Dr. Tony Stubbs Eye Surgeon MB BS BSc(Hons)B Med Sc MS FRANZCO

Dr. Tony Stubbs, Eye Surgeon, says that just about anyone can have their vision restored and be rid of their glasses for most of the time.

And this is without the use of laser surgery.

Dr Stubbs formerly at the Royal Victorian Eye Hospital who has worked with the Fred Hollows eye department at the Prince of Wales Hospital in Sydney, says he began his career through the inspiration of his father, Dr Maxwell Stubbs. “My father was a pioneer in cataract implant surgery from 1963! He has now passed away but some of his patients still come in for a check-up. Not only is this inspirational, it also demonstrates that good surgery outlasts the surgeon,� Dr Stubbs says.

A specialist who helps people who have been advised they are unsuitable for laser surgery, Dr Stubbs is also committed to demonstrating that age, corneal distortion or astigmatism are no barriers to eliminating the need for glasses.

One of my best moments was treating a 12-year-old girl who was struggling at school because of poor vision due to congenital cataracts even with the use of thick glasses. Now 10 years later, she still has 20/20 vision without glasses. That inspires me. “Seeing my patients’ bright smiles after surgery, as they stop squinting and can read without glasses, is deďŹ nitely the best part of my job.â€?

No referral is needed and no out-of-pocket expenses are incurred for an assessment to enable all options available to be considered.
