History of Pendragon year by year – 1995

Here’s a little dose of Brisbane history, in the bygone era of the 90s, Brisbane Riverside housed numerous bars, one of which was the dramatically titled Grand Orbit. Once a month they hosted fashion parades that were focused on showcasing local labels, an opportunity we seized. 

We created a trifecta of sets of shoes, the singular, unifying theme of them all: colourful and flashy. We have video but the photos on the night weren’t great….too much smoke machine on stage!

The photoshoots afterwards were great though. Photographed by Ros Baynes of Tea Party Portraits (still going in Brisbane).

Space Patrol: Pulp Sci-fi inspired and with all the flair. Suede boots with spacey symbols and matching vests.

Bug: Jitterbug (Black and White), Stinkbug (purple and green)and Toadstool (Red and white). Unfortunately only the Black and white photos survived.

Purrr: Suede platform zip up boots with sheepskin fur cuffs.

Later that year we made boots for a photoshoot at the Ashton circus, again photographed by Ros Baynes.
