Romance was Born has since been seen adorning many a high-profile clients, such as the bodies of Debbie Harry, Karen O and Lilly Allen; the pages of Oyster, Yen and Dazed & Confused; and the catwalks of the Melbourne International Fashion Festival.
Career Highlights:
* In 2008 they produced a capsule collection for retail giant Sportsgirl.
* Romance Was Born won the L’Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival Designer Award in 2008. “We are bold and innovative in the way we design, so it’s good to know people can appreciate it,” Plunkett says.
