She’s my mum, she’s beautiful nurturing and taught me everything I know.

By being a strong independent and courageous woman who has strong beliefs and principals whilst still being amazingly nurturing and loving which I continue to see especially now with my children. She made the leap all those years ago to pick up and leave France to move to Australia as a single mum and started a whole new successful career in film. She is incredibly brave and inspirational!

Sabine
Words by Seraina Fontana  - Head Designer

What makes your mum unique? 
My Mama Sabine is one of the strongest and most determined people I know. She is pure love, but is also a bad ass.

How has she inspired or continues to inspire you? 
She is a do-er and talented at so many things. She loves getting shit done, doing the things she loves and is a perfectionist. Being a sewing teacher, my love of fashion and design came from her. I grew up spending hours together sourcing fabrics and making our clothes. My favourite memories!

Everything about my mum is Unique. Her outlook on life, her sense of wonder and humour. She always looks for the beauty in people. She can make friends with absolutely anyone and everyone.
