Major label launches colourful new range of curvy fashion
From bucket hats to sneakers, the Taking Shape x Elverina Johnson collab has something for everyone.
It's the collab everyone's talking about. Leading fashion brand Taking Shape has partnered with First Nations Artist Elverina Johnson to launch their second limited edition collection.
The vibrant range is based on Elverina's original print design of Ngawayu Buluru, or Turtle and Reef Story. It brings together traditional aboriginal storytelling and fashion, highlighting the importance of the Great Barrier Reef at the same time.
The print is designed to show the colourful heart of the ocean. It focuses on the turtle, a protected species, and aims to raise awareness of the importance of the reef as the turtle's natural habitat.
