'Event of the week'..'Hunt No More' fashion label launch

08 Mar 2012
RAGTRADER

A host of well-known names and faces turned out for the official launch of the Hunt No More label this week.

As-well-as representatives from David Jones and Vogue, screen and theatre stars also popped along to the home-grown brand's exclusive night.

Held at the Since I Left You bar, which is nestled along a cobbled alley in Kent Street, attendees mingled in the bar's outside brick-walled courtyard which was sprinkled with rustic lanterns and candlelit tables.

The label was filtered into David Jones stores earlier this year, with many items selling out due to its success.

Among the well-heeled revellers was the daughter of Greta Scacci, and Law & Order star Vincent D’Onofrio, Leila George, actresses Celia Massingham and Elizabeth Blackmore, and Black Balloon director Elissa Down.


Guests enjoyed canopies and an exclusively designed cocktail, The Dagger, which is soon to become a staple on the Since I Left You menu, after its stellar success with the events attendees.

Visitors at the New York style inner city bar were shown the label's short film, which showcased the brand's 'edgy and mysterious' style, and this was projected onto an exposed brick wall.
The launch was also well attended by representatives from The Sunday Telegraph, Vogue, InStyle, Oyster, David Jones, Who, and of course, Ragtrader.

'THE YOUNG ONES: Australia's new breed of filmmakers speak out'

ED GIBBS

For someone who excelled at sport, representing her country in indoor soccer in both Europe and North America, Gracie Otto admits she still isn't sure how she wound up in an industry that's notoriously fickle and, for women, ageist and sexist. "I'd seen what it's like to be in the film industry and not work, as an actor, from my family," she says, of her parents Barry Otto and Susan Hill, and older half-sister Miranda. "I didn't really know what I wanted to do when I was playing soccer. I wanted to travel – which we didn't do as a family – but that was about it."
