So sad. It’s as they say. The candle that burns twice as bright……

I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children’s laughter remind us how we used to be

Everybody’s searching for a hero
People need someone to look up to
I never found anyone who fulfilled my needs
A lonely place to be
So I learned to depend on me

I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone’s shadows
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I’ll live as I believe
No matter what they take from me
They can’t take away my dignity
Because the greatest love of all
Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me
The greatest love of all
Is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself
It is the greatest love of all

I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children’s laughter remind us how we used to be

And if, by chance, that special place
That you’ve been dreaming of
Leads you to a lonely place
Find your strength in love

Remember, that we’re only 334 fans away from giving away $1000.00 of Saveus goodies! Now that is a good way to start Winter. Oh yeah.

Embellishing is the word of this fine Wednesday in the Saveus offices. Perhaps we’re onto something?

Saveus girls’ got swag. Word.

The team at Saveus are putting the finishing touches on the debut collection and putting polishing the website for our March debut. Our teeth are chattering with excitement.

Not long now. Three weeks isn’t really that long at all.

Our Art Director Jarred was saying in the Saveus studio the other day that he used to say this as a kid, and now he’s all like “have I ever actually come up with an original quote, ever?” Poor bastard….

Feeling fun. Like the above. Feeling excited about March? You bet.

NB: This post was purely self indulgent, no relevance to this project whatsoever… Totally relevant to our Ho Chi state of mind.

Try to find better, “but I think, cannot”.

Efficient.

The team is proud to announce that the AW 2012 “Everything, nothing.” collection is due to arrive in stores by the 1st of March, 2012. This is exciting news indeed.

Don’t forget to check out www.theiconic.com.au and www.thegrandsocial.com.au who will be our first stockists to receive the March drop.

What will be your first Saveus piece? Picked it yet?

Anyway, the realisation that Amy Winehouse pretty much solidified the partnership and had not been played the whole month they’d lived in each others pockets shocked them.

The woman was such a talent, and the downward spiral, well… That was the most incredible waste of all.

RIP you poor lost soul. Thank you for being the soundtrack for the next few days, at the very least.

Gah!

Oh it’s that awkward moment where Saveus is that loser friend that has a secret they won’t  share.

Oh well, all in time.

What comes to life is the city centre. Vietnam is in bloom and the most resilient race in the world puts their dancing shoes on.

Party time.

Thank you to Hong and Bee for showing us a good time this Tet 2012.

Imagine if you walked around with them too?

Or maybe we need to inspire more of this kind of creativity.

That’s the “walk into a room and everyone looks” kind of presence one aspires to achieve.

Oh, ps: Thanks again to Jak & Jil for great images.

We almost took them home… Almost.

And you haven’t even died for Winter yet.

Are you follower number 27? Make it 27,000 and Karima will do a nudie run through HCMC.

Wonder if she was wearing a Saveus dress.

Haha.

… of course she was.

I used to have this second image at my desk when I used to work in a job I liked for a bitch I hated. Never going to do this again. Ever.

New Australian womenswear label Saveus is proud to announce it’s first local stockists for the debut “Everything, Nothing” collection due out in early 2012.

Prominent Australian online retail stores, THEICONIC.com.au and thegrandsocial.com.au will be stocking Saveus from early next year, with both retailers eager to sign on before the end of 2011.

“We are extremely excited about the pending launch of Saveus to the Australian public, especially when we’ve received such great feedback from our new stockists,” Saveus Art Director, Jarred Baker said.

“THEICONIC.com.au and The Grand Social are such great platforms for our brand and we’re grateful for their early support because we’re confident in what we have created,” he added.

Saveus will also be fulfilling expressions of interest direct to the public through it’s own online website (www.saveus.com.au) from early 2012.

To be kept in the loop as this label launches, visit www.facebook.com/saveusclothing. Autumn/Winter 2012. “Everything, nothing.”

Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

The Everything, Nothing collection is inspired by the bustling Southeast Asian nation of Vietnam, a cultural melting pot and trading centre motivated by core values of respect, knowledge and history.

The traditional Vietnamese value of achieving harmony between the self and the non-self resonated with Saveus’ Sydney-based Art Director Jarred Baker and Creative Director Karima Hazim, who strived to create an effortlessly chic collection that melds seamlessly with the wearer.

The collection’s strong tailoring and meticulous attention to detail was further enhanced by the Vietnamese inspiration tour. Collaboration with highly skilled and experienced tailors and seamstresses revealed a similar passion for quality that transcended language barriers.

Defined by high quality workmanship, strong tailoring and luxe fabrics, Saveus collections are designed to function as a complete wardrobe, while presenting standout individual pieces; a reflection of the modern, multi dimensional woman.
