Cylk
The first thing you need to know about Cylk designer Lexi Lavranos is that she makes an awesome mix tape. The promo CD for Cylk’s autumn/winter 2007 collection features Plug-in City, The Rich, Children Collide, Midnight Juggernauts, Damn Arms, Ben Businovski and Hot Little Hands. (More on that later.)
You also need to know that her current collection (‘I went to the concert and I fought the crowd’) is all about silk and cashmere, high waistlines, high hemlines and icy shine. It’s inspired by rock, electro and new wave with a dash of Debbie Harry lippy and Jane Birkin style. With names like ‘Only here for the fun’ and ‘Saw him at the rocket club’, the clothes kind of sound like songs too. It all goes to show that talent doesn’t always need a big rider and a manager in leather pants.
Win: We have 5 copies of Cylk’s autumn/winter mix CD to give away. Email win@threethousand.com.au with the subject line ‘I’ll fight them for the mixtape too’
