Photos from Image Nations band launch of their Carnival 2009 "Coral Reef" are now online at
Xclusiv Events:
Lots of interesting combinations like a bikini and bra set paired with genie pants and all manner of variations on the sailor theme.. my first response is "hmmmmm".
Of the three years that Image Nation has been a band to me this is their weakest (dare I even say most cosquel) presentation yet, and I am a supporter of their previous work. Some of the materials and colours did not translate from the sketches into reality I am afraid . On a positive note, I applaud the use of a plus sized model at the launch.
