STORES!


I have decided to write a little about the stores that stocks Monster Alphabets.  It's a big risk for stores to take on a brand new label and I really appreciate all their faith in me and my work.  I choose the stores I approach very carefully and I would like to share with you all the special reasons why.oh, my boyfriend is away and he normally checks my erratic writing before I post on blogs but because of his absence I have no editor..  so bear with me folks!

My friend I studied architecture with, Cian and his girlfriend Bianca writes Alphabet Pony, which is a web based magazine formerly based in Sydney and now Melbourne.

They asked me to answer quick 10 questions, and here it is!

Their website:

Slashie Award!

My old friend from uni asked if I'd do an interview for her and of course I willingly obliged.  We have been great friends for nearly 10 years and we still keep in touch.  She has been there for me to celebrate the small victories as well as was the one who encouraged me to follow my passion.

I remember when I was petrified of starting my own label and this is what she said to me :

"the thing is right, we are still young enough to make mistakes and laugh about it, so just do it!"

this quote has stayed with me till this day.  I often share this quote with others who are thinking of starting new adventures.

Thank you Jau for being a great friend.

WINTER 12

When I was 25, I decided to quit my job at an Architecture firm in Perth to pursue my interest in Fashion.

I went back to Japan where I was born and was accepted to study at the prestigious Bunka Fashion College where Yohji Yamamoto, Junya Watanabe, Tsumori Chisato had graduated from. My Japanese wasn't perfect but I got through it.

I never looked back!

Here it is!:
