The beauty of wool is found in The Bilpin Beauty Collection – photographed in the beautiful Bilpin in the Blue Mountains in Australia to provide the perfect cool climate to showcase a winter collection of natural fabrics and a timeless style that is the signature of Brigid McLaughlin.

Brigid McLaughlin Says

‘The beauty of a garment that looks just as good on the inside as the outside. Unexpected details. I design clothes that are individual and timeless. I believe in making clothes that can be collected and worn for years to come. Clothing made with great care; employing ethical and environmentally sound practices.

I love colour. Australian design is all about ease of wear, care and colour. I aspire to make pieces that can be lived in. Pieces that are uniquely Australian.’

PIECES TO COVET

The Beauty Of Wool - Brigid McLaughlin

Beauty Life Moments covets the Gabrielle Pocket Basketweave Wool Jacket – a Chanel inspired piece that is timeless in the tailoring crafted from Japanese Basketweave wool suiting. The French navy colourway is cross woven with black. The jacket tailoring features a hand fray detail that is so delicate in its application. Lined with a fine cotton voile that is both natural and breathable. The beauty of this jacket is in the detail – designed, pattern made, sampled and hand-cut in the studio. Then it is sewn and finished by a local maker who is true to the craft of tailoring.

Team With: The Cigarette Basketweave Wool Skirt that finishes mid-calf. The centre back slip and invisible zip offers the finishing touches.
