Would you like some serious Styling?

Yesterday one of our really lovely customers Sara Hatten-Masterson, came in to the store to pick up her custom Mela Purdie order and although I knew she is a Stylist & Image Consultant, I wasn't exactly sure what her services would include. Every time Sara comes in to Red Works she just looks Amazing. You know those people who can just throw something on in the morning and look like they have stepped off a runway in Milan or Paris - that is Sara to a T . One of the Red Works girls met her for the first time yesterday and she said "I just knew by the way that Sara was looking through the Mela collection that she was a serious shopper - she just took the whole Mela co-ordination to a whole new level - just amazing, she knew how to put it together so it just looked absolutely Wow".

The Red Works girls are fabulous at helping you to put your Mela Purdie collection together, and at helping you to accessorise. You know that we will always give you an honest opinion of what it looks like when you put it on, but if you want to take your Styling to that next level, Sara is just the woman to do it for you. You could book her to give your wardrobe a good clean-out and then take you shopping to refill it with pieces that are going to look sensational on you, no matter what size or shape you are.

Check out Sara's website http://www.theimageboutique.com.au/ , and if you think your wardrobe could do with a bit of an update and refresh now that we are about to head in to Spring, I recommend that you give her a call - I think it could be one of the best investments you could ever make in You ! When you look good you feel confident and it reflects in everything that you do. And aside from her Styling and Image talents, Sara is a lovely lady and you can guarantee that she will make the best "shopping friend" you could ever find.

We have been in our new home for two months now and it is really feeling like home to us now. All of the stock has found a home (although we ordered plenty of new stock at the recent Gift Fair so the showroom will no doubt be changing again soon). If you haven't been in for a visit yet you really should set aside 20min or so to pop in and have little wander and explore - the more you look at Red Works the more you find to fall in love with.
Have a great week-end and hope these few shots whet your appetite to drop in and visit us on the week-end perhaps ! Have a good week-end and enjoy this beautiful weather we have been experiencing.

Spring/ Summer 2011 Mela Purdie

The Spring/ Summer Mela Purdie has been in store now for a couple of weeks and has been a massive hit with our ladies. Mela has certainly excelled herself with this latest collection which seems to have hit the mark with all age groups and all shapes and sizes - there is definitely something for everyone. Mela has used her trademark jersey in classic and sexy styles, she has added luxurious silks in stunning prints to create even more interest, and there have also been some new fabrics added to the collection which have the most amazing properties. The new Technical Weaves are quite revolutionary in that synthetic fibres can be woven to not only feel like natural fibres, but also breathe like natural fibres as well (hallejuah). If you haven't yet added a piece of charmeuse to your wardrobe you really are missing out - feels like silk, looks like silk.... but.... it isn't silk, and.... it's washable.
Congratulations Mela and your team, this collection is a sensation.


Red Works Mela Purdie "Wearable Layers" Fashion Parade - July 2011

We do like to socialise and we do love a champagne, and what better way to combine the two than with a spot of new season fashion. Our lovely Queensland Mela Purdie agent, Anne Breakwell hosted the evening and our ladies loved checking out the new season Mela Purdie Collection as well as getting styling tips and tricks from Anne. We really had a fabulous night and a special thanks to our friends and very beautiful models for the evening - Maria, Kerry and Rachael - and to think they don't usually get out of bed for less than $ 10000 a day !!!

Pre-show nerves (settled by a champers or two)

How gorgeous am I ?

Check out the new collection at our online store or even better, come in and see our beautiful new shop and get the Red Works girls to style you in to your new Mela.


Off to Melbourne for the Gift Fair tonight - hopefully there will be lots of yummy new products to bring back for Red Works
