This month, the new Autumn/Winter evening wear collection from established designer Eileen Kirby will hit Australian stores. And with its exclusive prints, elegant shapes and sleek tailoring, Australian women have something to be very excited about.

As Kirby says, "I love making women look beautiful and feel good".

About the collection:
Focused entirely on evening wear, this stunning, new collection features plenty of Eileen's signature draping and shoulder baring. It includes, sweet cocktail dresses (some finished with feathers, sequins and bead embellishments), pretty chiffon dresses in various lengths, long satin gowns, sexy strapless dresses, soft one-shoulder cocktail dresses, and girly, crinkled chiffon party frocks.

The range has a vibrant colour palette - boasting pastels, electric pink, cardinal reds and cobalt blues. It' spiced up by two, super-coloured dynamic prints called Fleur and Whoosh.

About Eileen Kirby:
Eileen is no newcomer to the Australian fashion scene. Her designs have graced the covers of Vogue, Marie Claire, and Elle - and countless celebrities have been seen wearing her gorgeous evening wear at red-carpet events, including the Logies and ARIA Awards.

Eileen first inherited a love of luxurious fabrics and style from her grandmother who owned a boutique in Shanghai. After graduating from East Sydney Fashion Design Studio, she launched her own label and began working from her fully equipped studio. Today, she stocks over 70 boutiques.

Eileen's signature style:
An Eileen Kirby dress is 'seasonless', on-trend and can be worn all year round. The quintessential Eileen Kirby item is the cocktail dress. She is well regarded for her clean, sleek tailoring - as well as her attention-to-detail and quality production.

About the photography:
For this collection's shoot, Kirby partnered with talented photographer, Bec Lorrimer, to create this season's strong yet soft, ethereal look. The model was Monique from Chic. Hair Stylist Ali Homes, from Wild Life, created a strong created a strong water wave look - making the hair look 'undone' to enhance the overall theme. Makeup for the shoot was by Joel Phillips, who created the models' soft dewy eyes by using a soft pink. He created a bleach brow to make the eyes stand out and used soft highlights through the T-zone and corners of the eyes to give the soft, dreamy soft look. The collection was accessorised with bold, clunky jewellery made by Eileen.
