We are very pleased to announce that Cyan has been nominated in the Australain Fashion Designer of the Year Awards (alongside some very big names in fashion)!

Nominated in the category of Couture, it is a huge honour as the nominees at this stage have been selected by people within the fashion industry.

To say we are a little excited is a bit of an understatement!

Cyan recently had a chat with the amazing (and very funny!) celebrity blogger Pandora for the new IRL (in real life) section.  I think we ended up chatting for well over an hour! :)

Thanks Pandora, we do love your goss!

Thanks to everyone that came out to see the Cyan Reign rocking out at the alloneword fashion parade. If you got their nice and early you would have also seen some of the goodies that Thread n Bone (the boutique downstairs from us) has on offer.

Thanks to Andrew @ Alloneword for hosting the event. We have started to see some photos coming online with a large chunk on Getanightlife.com.

We also spied Chemical Storm lads there armed with a trusty video camera so we will wrestle some footage off the crew... (we are talking about you Jeff!)

The shows are over! With an extended midday show, and the punchier afternoon session Cyan Reign proved to be a highlight of the event.

For those lucky enough to be at the event - you have likely picked up an exclusive card giving you the to pickup items from this collection with pricing reserved for our VIPs. This is our small thanks to you for your support (but the vip pricing will not last long so get in quick!).

We will start posting the images from this event as they filter through, and will release the full collection on our website shortly.

I am excited to announce that this years Melbourne Spring Fashion Week will be the launchpad for the next Cyan Reign collection. Cyan Reign and the team will no doubt keep creating until the last moment but as someone that gets to see the previews - let me tell you things are looking hot!

Can't wait until Fashion Week? Just head down to the Boutique below us (Thread n Bone) and grab some super hot fashion! We even have some of our sample garments on sale...

More details will be posted soon - stay tuned for updates....

Envirosax and Pepsi Heritage certainly know good style (of course) as Cyan Reign garments have been used as part of the promotional campaign launching soon.

More details will be posted as they come to hand.

The Cyan Reign design lab has opened up above Fortitude Valley boutique Thread n Bone. The lab is full of couture and made to measure garments with Thread n Bone stocking the collections.

We are located at:

Upper Level, Shop 5
