Passion for fashion pays off
チャーリーズウィドウ
Getting the sack from her first full time job as a graphic designer was the best thing that could have happened to Lang Leav. Not the fashion designer, illustrator and poet though so at the time in Cabramatta, where Leav lives with her parents in a modest cottage, having a solid job with prospects in everything.
In 2004, she was three month into a job designer packaging for products such as toilet paper when she was fired for being "too independent". "I was really upset initially",she says. Then her father handed her a scrap of paper. On it he had written : "Where the hills and streams end and there seems no road beyond, amidst the shading willows and blooming flowers, another village appears".
Leav printed a teddy bear with an empty eye socker onto a Bonds singlet put it on eBay and was stunned when it sold for about $50. With that confidence boost, she put together a T-shirt collection under the Akina label, entered the Qantas Spirint of Youth Awards in 2005, and won category.
The $10.000 prize allowed her to travel to Japan and included a mentorship with fashion designer Petter Morrisey. He wrote a reference for a Leav when she succssesfully applied last year for a $25.000 Churchill Fellowship. she left in July for for six week in Japan studying Tokyo's Harajuku girls, whose kooky streetwear and wild make-up is inspired by everything from anime characters to Goth brides. She also tookwith her a collection for Akina fashions to investigate how Australian label can make inroads into the lucrative Japanese market. "Japanese schoolgirl are speeding $US2.5 billion annually on clothing and accesories," she says. "It's a cool market to get into".
