Tiki Hut 1.


A sneak preview of what I'm working on at the moment for my clothing label 'Tiki Hut' thats inspired by my life here on the sunshine coast. The coast truly has to be one of the most surf-junkie bong smoking daggy hippy skater surfer snooty stuck-up lords of dogtown looking beach bogan indie fashionista tumblry looking places on the planet haha. Basically there are just so many characters with so much tropical beach inspiration everywhere. This place is perfect for me to design as most of my clothes are all connected to this constant skate/surf/beach shack inspiration thats rooted into the vibe of the coast. Except for the fact that most of my clothes end up being really feminine and detailed..... but their all originally drawn from a mexican doorway or froth on the sand.The skirt above sets the main theme for the collection- pinata. And it's golden like the sun. I'm not going to give too much more away for the moment:)
