19.01.2022 It's a shame the model wasn't bigger because this cool dress fits sizes 18 to 22!

19.01.2022 A little bit of the old world... and some perfectly apt costume design.

19.01.2022 Good morning! I should have sent this yesterday but Im social media slack. A lovely customer of mine sent this through to wish me a happy first day of spring and I had to share it with you because she always looks fabulous. HAPPY SPRINGTIME EVERYONE! I believe this gorgeous mask was made by @belle.folie.designs #welcometospring #spring #springfashion #springweather #naturalfibres #springinaustralia #september #recklessabandonboutique

14.01.2022 What should women over 50 stop wearing ?? - - 'The weight of other peoples opinions and judgments - -

13.01.2022 So true! And I was just talking to @andreawestbrookcoaching about this, about the difference between feeling directionless and laying down plans to show you where youre going. Yes, life gets in the way too, but planning gives clarity and comfort. I so never thought Id be into it but Im starting to think its the best bloody idea I could have! #lifecoaching #trelisecooper #create #direction Then when youre on the path... #getlost ! #travelwide ! #dontgrowold #growwild #recklessabandonboutique

13.01.2022 Thank you Grace! Thanks for modelling the COOP Frilly Me dress - AKA - Lemony Snickets dress in seersucker. The print story is called *lemonade stand* SO CUTE SO COOL

12.01.2022 When a fashion designer compliments you on your selection of vintage... @abbilaneau wears a vintage Metalicus (extinct Australian brand) dress from the 90s

12.01.2022 Drop it like it’s hot! Totally loving the new BANANA print by @curatebytrelisecooper !! They’re unripened bunches of green on white - so fresh - so tropical - so on holidays but still at work There’s a flattering dress, and a flattering top - both in lightweight yet durable viscose that is pre-scrunched for travelling, and for stretching way out of need be, which gives them playful movement. #banana #greenbanana #scrunchies #workwear #resortwear #fashion #springfashion #coolfabric #sleeves #allsizes #designerplussize #whomadeyourclothes #newzealandfashion #brisbanefashionboutique #recklessabandonboutique #slowfashion # #bananadress # #dropitlikeitshot

11.01.2022 Today I am putting together a new rack called SHEER LAYERS dedicated to SHEER GARMENTS we adorn and utilise on oh so many occasions. Of course the brands you love are here: a Megan Salmon sheer burgundy coat dress over emerald-in-a-bottle green sheer dress from Curate by Trelise Cooper. But a special rack will be dedicated to retro sheers, slips and lacy dresses made so popular in the 90s worn over tights or jeans or whatever... #megansalmon #coatdress #curatebytrelisecooper #sheerfashion #burgundycoat #sheerlayers #90sfashion coming. #oncelovedoriginals @ Officeworks

07.01.2022 Finally getting the time opportunity to start uploading some of the wonderful slow fashion ONCE-LOVED ORIGINALS #brisbanefashion #brisbanefashionboutique #oncelovedfashion #basquewoman #plussizedresses #leopardprint

07.01.2022 People often ask me why I don’t make clothes for the shop.... Well this, amongst other reasons, is why. I think the fashion I choose does a pretty amazing job of being creative, artistic, functional, et al. And they and bring slow fashion quality and durability to fold. I won’t be coming in today as I have a multitude of appointments. I do apologise for the inconvenience if you’ve planned to see me on your visit to the city. I’ll be back tomorrow. #sewing #whomademyclothes #ethicalfashion #sustainablefashion #environmentalfashion #slowfashion #brisbanefashion #recklessabandonboutique

05.01.2022 If there’s one person in this world I love, it’s Trelise Cooper. @trelisecooper You’re a life saver! (Happy customers embarking on holiday to Tasmania.) #trelisecooper #curatebytrelisecooper #lifesavingfashion #embark #travelgear #resortwear #holidayfashion #wearablefashion #cutforawoman #patternmaking #fashiondesign #curves #getlost #travelwide #dontgrowold #growwild #recklessabandonboutique #brisbanefashion #brisbanefashionblogger

05.01.2022 Did I happen to mention I’ve added Rubyyaya to the summer mix? How cool is this top!!? I just love the anatomical heart It’s such a unique and arty looking print - printed on lightweight viscose that feels like cotton. I apologise for not posting right away when I first received them, now there’s only 2 left. That’s ok. They’ll be cherished at a Christmas party somewhere.. #rubyyaya #reptilia #lightweightfabric #naturalfibres #summertop #armcover #artisticfashion #uniqueprint #snakes #anatomicalheart #recklessabandonboutique

05.01.2022 Kate Moss style 90s minimalism - simple yet *sparkly* little black dress $15 from the Once-Loved section. Thank you for modelling!

04.01.2022 Have a look at this incredible @trelisecooper skirt a customer brought in to show me! Its a work of art, so unique and the work put into it so visible Were not sure the vintage but she suspects its around 15 years old. This is a great example of #slowfashion something that is really quite #seasonless and #timeless #theartoffashion #curatebytrelisecooper #brisbanefashionboutique #sustainablefashion #recklessabandonboutique #patternmaking #uniquefashion #skirt

03.01.2022 I dont have any rules because Id only be breaking them. Iris Apfel

03.01.2022 Just playing around... got cleaned out of JWAS kimonos last week and realised theres only 4 left in the whole shop! Well, 5 if you count that this one is reversible #johnnywas #johnnywaskimono #silk #silkkimono #brisbanefashionboutique #adelaidestreetarcade #recklessabandonboutique #slowfashion

03.01.2022 You know, it might sound a bit cate strange but Ive only just recently realised just how TALL Tilting Tilda is! I mean, I set out to get a plus size dolly, which I did - she comfortably wears size 14 to 18 - I just had no idea shed also be 6 foot tall! Its weird that its something that I simply did not notice before. So now Im thinking of replacing her with height adjustable dress stands that may be faster to dress. (But not just yet as shes doing the vacuuming.)

03.01.2022 When Louisa let me take her picture in the arcade I noticed, amongst the plethora of eclectic fabrics in LifeLines window, a red & white striped and textured material. Ooh.. whats that? I said, knowing it wouldnt fit me and implying that red is a good friend to her. So Louisa went in and tried it on and it fit PERFECTLY And it was half price: $12. She loved the clash with her check pant. And so do I. Good morning.

02.01.2022 Whoops! Something got missed in all the drama - though I dont know how with such a vibrant fabric - cold shoulder, cool as a cucumber #johnnywas #cahil #tunic #tunicdress

02.01.2022 How FABULOUS does this woman look! I was visiting Shirley from @revamp_fashions on my lunch break and saw this woman and just had to ask for her picture. Gosh, I should have asked her how she makes her curls stay so curled! Bless her trendy-ness FYI Shirley is leaving and REVAMP is CLOSING after 30 years we will both be open tomorrow (from 11AM) Revamp has 50% off EVERYTHING (except the CHANEL bag lol) and Ive got a few bargains going on too for Saturday lovers. Xx @ Revamp Fashions

01.01.2022 Ill be honest, I thought I’d made an ordering mistake when this @curatebytrelisecooper dress arrived.. From a fashion forecasting point of view, I didn’t expect to see digital prints - pretty as they are - until next year. We’re up to the 90s now (thank God) as far as influences go, the 90s was heavily influenced by styles from the 60s and 70s, which was heavily influenced by political freedoms and MUSIC! Psychedelic music like Pink Floyd and Jimi Hendrix experimented with ...electric synthesisers and mirrored imaging (see second pic), which gave birth to a whole new way of creating fabric prints. With the dawn of the World Wide Web in the 90s, technical prints emerged from designers that trickled down to the music scene, techno dance clubs, and eventually into everyday clothing sold in department stores like Target. It’s bold influence carried on right through to the early 2000s, elements of which were picked up and refined by Alexander McQueen (don’t get me started) So yes, this dress, a happy accident has proven to be very popular, especially amongst the Asian community. #coolfabric See more
