Winter can be a challenging season for several reasons, which is precisely why we’ve embraced the theme of nurturing in the new ‘Motherhood’ issue of Fashion Quarterly. With no shortage of mood-boosting fashion to inspire your sartorial selections, we explore the animal print trend, the rise of loud luxury, and share the boots you should be investing in this season. In our Trending section, cover star Lea Lukek dons neutral layers against a rocky Sydney backdrop, and further in, Jessica-Belle Greer investigates what’s next for the local fashion industry. Plus, we speak with Gab Waller, Hollywood’s fashion sourcer to the stars, and highlight three Australian designers on the rise. As it’s our Motherhood issue, we bring you a dedicated ‘FQ Mini’ section for you and your little one. Discover six Antipodean kids designers to shop, our must-have maternity products, and read about the growing skincare obsession amongst children and teens. In our Beauty section, we trial the Shark Flexstyle on four different hair types, the FQ team share their top beauty picks, and we tell you why ‘chocolate cherry brunette’ is set to be the hair shade of the season. If you’re dreaming of warmer shores this winter, consult our Travel section. Writer Jess Molina recounts her recent getaway to Puerto Rico, we share three underrated spots to visit this Euro summer and the wardrobe essentials to take with you.
