"Blonde Venus & The Outpost Christmas Gift Guide ;)" Dec 11 2009, 08:03:50 am





Hi Everyone!

Great news from the British Fashion Awards this week.
Peter Pilotto won the Swarovski Emerging Talent Award
for Ready To Wear.

Peter Pilotto and Christopher De Vos 
of Peter Pilotto at the BFC awards this week
 
The award is to recognize and financially reward designers as they 
establish their emerging fashion business.
Peter and Christopher have had such wonderful international
response from their collections with everyone from Rihanna
to Michelle Obama wearing their pieces.
Peter Pilotto is currently available exclusively in Australia at Blonde Venus.

Some lucky BV and Outpost fans, now living overseas, have already had loving
family shop some special delights to surprise them in the post with for Christmas.

For those of you that are still shopping, I have tried to make your gifting
a little easier with these ideas below.

Naturally, this is only a small selection of the varied delights that
we have available in both stores but myself, Matt, Clea, Joel, Lauren
and Briana are here to help you, right down to the little bow on the paper.

Don't forget to check both of our blogs for more images and details.
