The T-shirt Issue

No 318//Linda
She changed my life from the first moment i was fitting her, when she slipped through my drapery purring.
The sounds she made, unerring and self-confident.
She fills my design with ease, making me believe in her more then ever.


No 378//Paul
When i was small and just about to learn swimming i was petrified that my swimmies would
leak. I squeezed them constantly to check the air level. Surprisingly the swimmies had a different effect outside the
water, they gave me tremendous self assurance. In default of that i just left them on all the time.

No 419// Markus
After hearing a story about a boy brought up by a wolf i wanted this more than anything else.
The wolf would have accompanied my nocturnal wanderings, would have eagerly shared my
reconnaissances and sometimes my thunderous sighs.

Doilies and Pearls, Oysters and Shells



Come and swim with Romance Was Born amidst iridescent jellyfish, sea horses, schools of fish and dancing electric eels… but beware, deep below the waves where shy oysters and ivory shells hide, a seaweed monster lurks…

The collection features a colour palette from a sea of lustrous blue rinses; from the palest pastel pinks, through to ice blue, soft lavender and mint with the allure of classic aquatic combinations of navy and cream. Nanna’s favorites, crotchet, embroidery and knitting feature heavily.

Doilies and Pearls, Oysters and Shells launches two new collaborations with Australian artists Patrick Doherty and Esme Timbery. Patrick Doherty has created artwork exclusively for the collection simply dubbed as the Patrick print, which plays on imaginative scenes full of symbolic iconography. Esme Timbery is a celebrated shell artist and indigenous elder, one of the last to continue this family tradition. Esme has hand shelled twenty limited edition Romance Was Born shoes. For the third season running, accessory designer Paul Bonomelli comes to the helm and has produced a range ofaccessories for this collection. Hand dyed rope pendants come in a delicate array of pastels featuring shell and pearl centrepieces tipped in gold. Necklaces and headbands are encrusted with pearls and shells delicately strung together in brilliant random woven formations.
