A visual feast at the Zambesi Summer 2014/15 Launch

Beautiful models ate cake today at a decadent feast laid out at the Zambesi Summer 2014/15 Launch. The tableau of the heavenly picnic on clear plastic clouds saw The Caker Jordan Rondel feeding layer cream cake and a table of food and wine as models lounged in the upcoming SS14/15 collection.

The summer range is based around a print collaboration between the New Zealand designer label and the iconic Liberty of London, creating two prints: a floral daisy print, and a zodiac signs print, in Liberty lawn cotton.

These zodiac and daisy motifs were carried through to the body art, handpainted on by MAC Cosmetics makeup artist Kiekie Stanners, who told Thread she created the dramatic and striking makeup unique to each model and painted their hands, arms, and feet with the Liberty print designs.

Hair was created by Jason Chong-Li of Stephen Marr salon. Alongside the models, an acoustic guitarist (the partner of Marissa Findlay) played.
