Wish - 'Raise the Roof' Preview

Last Thursday I was lucky enough to attend a preview of Wish's upcoming collection, 'Raise the Roof'. It was held at Hub Melbourne, a innovative workspace for collaborative work amongst a range of people. It was a beautiful set-up with splashes of colour throughout, including a huge fuchsia beanbag in the middle of the room which I just HAD to get cozy on.  

Trying on a couple of Wish pieces, loving the complementary mustard tones and soft drapes.

The collection features a good number of faux fur pieces - jackets, vests and scarves, as well as their signature silk pieces in healthy doses of bright colour and the occasional print (see second last pic above for my fave clash of the animal prints). 

It was a sweet coincidence that some familiar faces from the Nuffnang Fashionopolis were around when I dropped by, which meant a fun-filled hour of catch-ups and photo-taking! Miss Fox, Joolz and Occasional Sweets also contributed cute little gifts of their own to the afternoon. And a huge thank you to the Wish ladies for swinging by Melbourne, and graciously letting us turn the place into our personal dress-up closet!

p.s. There was a seemingly cool/quaint/nice-looking cafe downstairs that I didn't have time to stop by but have made a mental note of! 673 Bourke St, to be exact, if you're around the area looking for some munchies.
