Putting the Fox in Foxtel

The Logies wrapped up last week after a gruelling few weeks of styling preparations for our Foxtel Showtime and Showcase clients.

Back and forth with designers, PR teams, jewellers, shoe companies, publicists...it has been a whirlwind of fittings, fabric, feathers, diamonds and gems.

With one of our clients nominated for a TV Week Silver Logie for Most Outstanding Actress  and 4 others all in current TV series on the FOXTEL Network, we couldn't risk the chance of one client looking bad on the red carpet, so we sent our stylist, Lainey Donnelly, on a little jet plane down to Melbourne.


After arriving the morning prior to the Logie's with suitcases full of shoes, bags, dresses, suits and 'styling first aid' (i.e. shoe petals, hollywood tape, needles and thread etc.),it was time to set up the hotel suite for final layout of garments.

Saturday night was the the Foxtel Pre-Logies Dinner Party, with red carpet and pre-drinks at Tonic Bar at Crown Promenade, then the guests slide across to the Crown Casino to dine at Neil Perry's Spice Temple.

Both ladies looked absolutely fabulous as they mingled and sipped on champagne with the 'cloudstreet' cast, Geoff Morrell, Hugo Johnstone-Burt, Stephen Curry and many more. 


Then back to bed for an early start sunday morning.  Logies now only 16 hours away. 


When Lainey woke and looked out the window, the red carpet was in full production mode, television station trucks lined the streets, production crew running around doing last minute changes and bus loads of children coming to scream on the stars as they walked the red carpet.

Overall, it was a pleasure to style the beautiful and elegant FOXTEL cast. 


Rollingball looks forward to working with Foxtel's very hard working publicists, Showtime's Vanessa Hollins and The Movie Network's Jackie Deignan, in the future.
