:: Editor's note

Pictured: One of the designers who made a big impression at the recent Rosemount Australian Fashion Week was Ruth Tarvydas, from Western Australia. Many local and international celebrities attended the fashion parade and enjoyed the stylish and edgy designs.

Bottom: Kate Ceberano has released her seventeenth album ‘So Much Beauty’. Again she delves back into the past to find some of her favourtes and puts her own stamp on them. There are a couple of new songs on the album also.

Melbourne recently hosted the annual L'Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival and it was a terrific success. With the main activities occurring at the Central Pier sheds in Docklands, the general public and visiting guests witnessed some very enterprising designs from established and up-and-coming designers.

Some things that were noted:
Black is still a dominating colour in the Australian winter and that little black dress was as obvious as ever. The opportunity to be brave with other colours wasn't unnoticed either. There was a good deal of purple, green, orange and yellow in several eye-popping moments.

We saw well-structured, intricate pieces with either high or low hemlines. There were slinky satin fabrics amongst daywear collections, and clusters of sequins on show for a slightly bolder statement.

Of course, leather was popular throughout the shows, particularly the waist jackets as an inspiring look over a slinky dress for something edgy. And, the leggings were most ubiquitous, especially those of a fluorescent nature.

See our Celebrity Spotlight with one of Australia's leading pin-up girls, Krystal Forscutt. She is delightful to speak to, and she speaks very honestly to us. Other spotlights on FHM Girl Next Door Lauren Dally and the Formula One Grand Prix parties in Melbourne.

Lots of other music news including some of the young stars to watch this year and exclusive audio/video links.

Panic At The Disco interview

“There’s a lot of indie bands that cited the Beatles as their biggest influence but then they don’t want to be catchy. They don’t want to write pop melodies. That’s the strange thing because it’s like, “…wait a second, those guys wrote some of the catchiest songs of all time.”

Resin Dogs – More On The Way

“We’ve always been known firstly for our live shows and not for record sales,’ he says. ‘I guess cause we’ve always come from that live background…[so] people have come to check if we’re still alive and checking out what we’re up to lately. So you’re winning over new fans and bringing back the old ones as well.”
