Highlights from Megan Park's stunning new winter range!
Oooohhh….. it is exciting if not a wee bit intimidating to be invited to become a guest blogger for The Design Files. Thank you Lucy and Jenny for inviting me to jump on board…. I will try my best!
It is an exciting start to the week at Megan Park as we see the fruits of our labours come down the runway at L’Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival as we are part of the INSTYLE show this Thursday. It is always exciting for the girls at MP to see the collection styled up and looking gorgeous. Having worked on the collection from its inception to now seeing it upon the runway is always so satisfying for us all.
We have also completely lucked out as the amazing stylist Jolyon Mason has been chosen by INSTYLE to bring together our show. Jolyon is always our stylist of choice and has lent his creative genius for quite a few seasons at MEGAN PARK.

Just gorgeous, well done and best of luck for the show :)
Looks beautiful! Would love the chance to go to your show. Just moved to Melb and love the fashion!! Good luck!!
Ooohh la la! As an avid collector of all things ‘textile’ fabulous to see the new MP winter range – what amazing styling and use of pattern! Bring on winter!
Dreamy Collection. The floral prints are feminine and adorable. I would love to see it on the catwalk.
Wow, congratulations on the beautiful images/garments -opulent, bohemian and perfect for the encroaching Melbourne winter. I particularly love the print on print and texture heavy ensembles and (not for the first time) really wish I had a ‘pantsuit figure’!! Best wishes for your event this week.
It’s all good.
I would love to see all this at the parade and then I’d like to go and buy it. True.
Wow beautiful – would love to go to your show please!
Congratulations on a beautiful collection and all the best for this week and the season ahead!
I have the most beautiful black Megan Park dress with white shell embroidery which I was so so so excited about buying. There is only ONE small problem it is ummm errrr ‘slightly’ too small….so it waits patiently in its garment bag for me – all dressed up with no where to go.
Would love to see the show and be inspired to fit into more beautiful clothes.

Ah, although I don’t live in Melbs anymore I would love to gift this to my friend who does. As a textiles student, she would love it : )
Gorgeous collection and stunning photography! Love it!
Megan Park is such an integral part of the Australian fashion scene and does a wonderful job representing Aussie designers abroad with her beautifully embellished pieces.
Just beautiful threads!
Strong yet still feminine and kind of romantic, like all of MP’s designs.
Timeless and elegant, beyond fashion. On the days I didn’t wear my Megan Park frock
I would have to hang it on the wall like a piece of art and just admire it’s finery.
Thanks for your wonderful work!
absolutely stunning! Such a strong and romantic style.
BEAUTIFUL! I <3 megan park. I wish you would produce a homewares line, so i could wrap myself in it!
megan park and melbourne. the perfect combination
Very romantic collection – you have captured the spirit of the moment.

Loving the floral prints! Always nice to see a bright splash of colour when most winter collections are all doom and gloom.
Oh, and good luck on the show! xox
Wow – Megan Park. If I won the gift voucher, I would actually allow myself to enter her gorgeous shop. I haven’t been game through fear of buying out the entire store!

I just LOVE Megan Park’s designs and it would be such a thrill to be at her LMFF Runway show!
total beaded delight!!
Elegant and edgy all wrapped up in one – love this collection!
Dear Megan, I have long been a slavish fan. I was thrilled to wear your amazing purple kaftan style dress with the plunging turquoise beaded neckline to the 2010 AFI awards in December. I felt brilliant,and got many admiring comments…. not to mention lots of press coverage. Thank you for the opportunity, and I cannot wait for the next.
Jane Hall.
love love love!!!
whoa! i would LOVE to go to this!
wow, i love all that navy, so gorgeous!
How inspirational, the styling and finishes are so divine, feminine yet not too girly. I’d love the chance to see it on the catwalk!
A Melbourne hats off to Megan Park for creating handcrafted heirlooms within the often disposable world of fashion. I would be thrilled to hand down a Megan Park outfit to my daughter one day. Thanks for the opportunity!
I’m a fan of anyone who’s a fan of Frida’s ! Looking forward to a stay in Melbourne and visiting the store later this week.
Would love to go to your show Megan! I did work experience with you a couple years ago and loved the experience of working in your studio.
Megan you just keep getting better and better, I remember oohing and aahing over your scarves many years ago in Liberty. So glad you have evolved into clothes.
I love all of this, please would I be able to wipe the brocoli out of my hair from my one year old.. and done a dress and have a night of glamour and escapism from three little rascals….
such beautiful feminine designs… make sthe thoughts of winter almost bearable knowing there is such glamour to be worn!
Not to shabby.
Megan Park, a collection hauntingly feminine and dark,
The chance to see it on the catwalk,
stirs me to break into a moonwalk.
I am in love with a beaded cropped vest I just bought @ the Megan Park VIP sale. I have had so many great comments each time I wear it. The beading is devine!!!
