Winter in the Woods: Winter Fashion 2025
Our shoot for this issue was a trip down memory lane and invoked our inner child.
Our model and crew spent the day exploring the woods and parklands of Noosa Waters, discovering new places, climbing trees, tiptoeing through the artistic root system of the Moreton Bay Fig tree and swinging like big kids on the play equipment in our own big, beautiful backyard.
Nature was the perfect backdrop to share the new season’s key trends of layering, texture and earthy colours. We adorned Sammy in velvet, linen and cotton fabrics that feel close to nature and we adventured like tourists in our own town.
Enjoy the playfulness of Winter fashion in Noosa.
