SPRING / SUMMER ’20 EDIT

MEET ANNABEL FALCO, QUEEN ST MALL’S NEW FASHION AMBASSADOR AND LOCAL IT GIRL. WE’VE TAKEN 5 WITH HER TO CHAT ALL THINGS SPRING / SUMMER FASHION AND WHERE TO SHOP THE BEST TRENDS OF THE SEASON IN BRISBANE CITY. HI ANNABEL - FIRSTLY, CONGRATULATIONS ON BEING THE NEW FASHION AMBASSADOR FOR QUEEN STREET MALL! CAN YOU TELL US MORE ON YOUR JOURNEY IN THE FASHION WORLD? I’ve worked as a fashion journalist and editor for over 10 years; I’ve styled celebrities for red carpet events, I’ve work with hundreds of clients to revamp their wardrobes and I’ve hosted numerous fashion events for industry heavy weights (and favourites) such as David Jones, Sass & Bide and Aje. WHAT DO YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT SHOPPING IN BRISBANE CITY AND WHAT ARE YOUR GO-TO FAVOURITES? Brisbane City has always been a firm fashion favourite of mine – from luxury bags along EDWARD ST; Australian designer dresses at QUEENSPLAZA; beautiful jewels within BRISBANE ARCADE; delicious coffee and quirky accessories at TATTERSALL’S ARCADE; the best of beauty in WINTERGARDEN; family fashions from THE MYER CENTRE; as well as my three high-street favourites Zara, H&M and Uniqlo along the mall, Brisbane’s CBD is certainly a vibrant and varied market place. WHAT ARE YOUR PREDICTIONS FOR SPRING / SUMMER TRENDS? This year's hottest S/S trends will be centred around vibrant colours, oceanic inspirations and dramatic
sleeves. Whether you need a complete wardrobe overhaul or a few key pieces to revive wardrobe basics, in this Pocket Guide I’ll take you through my picks to inject some life back into your dressing. FINALLY, WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR BIGGEST LESSON FOR 2020? WHAT A YEAR! 2020 has taught many lessons: patience, kindness, to “go with the flow” and (most importantly) that tracksuits can be worn both in and out of the house.

Mimco
In what seems to be a backlash against tonal sweats, spring/s summer is destined to be filled with bold colours and show stopping accessories. When it comes to an official palette, anything from sage green through to neon pink is acceptable. Favourites include Zara, Pia Du Pradal and Myer for pop-coloured additions. Prints in the form of checks are at the forefront, encouraging us all to invest in this season’s LPD (Little Print Dress). I suggest visiting the likes of Gucci or Gorman for show-stopping fabrics and cuts.

Silhouettes take on a feminine form with ruching, ruffles and dramatic sleeves at Scanlan Theodore, Aje and Sacha Drake.

To compliment low key ceremonies and receptions, head to the experts at BRISBANE ARCADE for simple silk dresses, sleek silhouettes or even suiting for a modern take on your nuptials. The “wow” factor is best invested in the details where a bejewelled bag, designer shoe or feather detailing will ensure your 2020 wedding is memorable for all the right reasons.

When it comes to hair, channel Rachel Green (from Friends) and opt for face-framing layers, chunky high/low lights and hair claws. The 90s theme continues into brows where big is best. Elizabeth Arden, Myer
Beauty buffs should embrace a bright, glossy lip and cheek in juicy shades of tangerine and hot pink. This colour theme softens into eye shadow palettes where “water colour” tones of mint green blended into a soft pink make for the perfect statement eye. Be sure to visit Mecca, Toni & Guy or the David Jones beauty department for on-trend beauty additions.

STYLE TIP: SWAP YOUR BLACK LINER TO WHITE FOR AN EYE-OPENING AND MODERN TAKE ON THE “CAT EYE”.

Fashion may be my first love but beauty comes in at a very close second so I can’t help but suggest the perfect lipstick to wear with your new season H&M dress!

ACCESSORIES We have Prada to thank for our ocean-inspired accessory obsession with shell details, opal tones and ornate embellishments ruling the runway. From statement coral earrings at Christie Nicolaides, scalloped hemlines within the Myer fashion department or classic pearl earrings y, there is plenty of fashion fishing by Paspaley to be done.
