Annual leave

Today is our last day before we go on leave. It's been a crazy year and we have definitely earned a break.

So goodbye 2011. You were one to remember.

Hello 2012. Please be awesome.

We will be back on the 9th of Jan. All orders placed between now and then will be sent out on Monday the 9th and Tuesday the 10th of January. Thanks for your patience and allowing us to rest, rejuvenate and maybe even get a little silly.

Whatever you're getting up to for NYE play safe and have fun, you handsome bastards. For now, we're going to make like a tree and branch.

Much love.

Happy global non-denominational gift exchange day

Pretty sure I let Tim say it best last year, but there really is no one better so here he is again.

Play safe everyone. Big love x

The Perfect Xmas: A Reference

Our friend Mikey Trotter celebrated xmas in Bondi last year. This year we are all pitching in to ask Santa for weather like last year, so Mikey has made this video for Santa to use as a reference. Xmas the way it should be.

Don't disappoint your loved ones

Remember to order today if you want to receive your stock in time for xmas. Don't just rely on Santa to get all the gifts for your friends and family - I made that mistake once before and my Mum still hasn't forgiven me.

Last day to get your Shout on

Our Shout Outs comp is finishing today. This is your last chance to take a swig from our pint of xmas cheer.

You can scroll down to the post below for all the details. Also, as an extra bonus, I have penned a shitty poem just for you. On the surface it would appear to be about the weather. But if you dig a little deeper... wait, no, still about the weather.

Enjoy.

This xmas it might snow
But it probably won't you know
I might ask my friend Joe
To watch the weather show

Or maybe it will rain
On summer's parade again
That would be a pain
This poem is inane

But hopefully the sun
Will want to have some fun
We'll sing and dance and run
I'll dress up like a nun

Or it just might be haily
It's getting colder daily
My words are getting faily
I fucking hate Tim Bailey

We're back

So we've been away in India for a few weeks but now we're back just in time for Sydney summer (although obviously Mother Nature didn't get the memo).

Anyway we'll be back in action with more posts, pics and info soon but for now sit back and enjoy a famous moment in denim.

Research in the '50s

"In this remarkable video, an utterly normal, straight-edge housewife volunteers for a government study in which she's administered LSD. In her pre-drop interview, she comes across as upstanding, demure, polite and, well, pretty square.

And then she trips balls."

Has anyone ever seen this film?

A movie about fashion with a pretty bullshit cast released in the same year as such epic films as Pulp Fiction, Forrest Gump and The Shawshank Redemption. Could it be possible that this is gold that slipped under the radar or has simply been forgotten? Or could it be trash that should be forgotten?

We're tempted to track it down to find out the answer.

File on Style

I recently had a chat to File on Style and discussed fighting crime in tight spandex costumes and what to wear in a zombie apocalypse. File on Style don't just have their finger on the pulse of Australian fashion, they have their whole fist on it and are beating it into submission. In the past couple of weeks alone they have interviewed the boys from Vanishing Elephant and posted on Friend of Mine, Bec & Bridge and ksubi. Def a site worth browsing.

Henry Holland

Our talented PR and sales team Paul Maloney Fashion Agency has just just added another impressive label to its ranks - ubiquitous UK designer Henry Holland's eye-catching brand 'House of Holland'.

I'm not exactly sure how they're going to differentiate between us, but here are some ideas:

-Eleventh Commandment's Henry Holland and House of Holland's Henry Holland.
-Australian Henry Holland and British Henry Holland.
-Shaved head Henry Holland and quiffed Henry Holland.
-That world-famous Henry Holland that has shown at London Fashion Week and is best friends with Agyness Deyn and that other Henry Holland that isn't.

Beyond that I'm pretty much out of ideas but I'm thinking it is likely to breed confusion. Regardless of that though it is a big coup for the PMFA team and it will be exciting to see what the other Henry Holland brings to Australian shores.
