red carpet<br />
More and more the ‘red carpet’ has<br />
become synonymous with the epitome<br />
of glamour and fantasy. From the<br />
Brownlow Medal to teen parties and<br />
school formals, red carpet dressing has<br />
become an obsession. With the Oscars<br />
around the corner, we’ve decided to<br />
dress up and become part of the<br />
glitterati ... but what does it take?<br />
An Australian in Hollywood<br />
Australian designer Johanna<br />
Johnson made a splash last<br />
year during the Emmy Awards<br />
when ‘Mad Men’ actress<br />
Christina Hendricks sashayed<br />
down the carpet in her heavy<br />
silk satin gown that was<br />
embellished with Swarovski<br />
crystals and screamed ‘old<br />
school Hollywood’. The<br />
Sydney Morning Herald’s<br />
Fashion Editor, Georgina<br />
Safe, declared Johanna’s<br />
dress a “red carpet<br />
stunner” and quoted the<br />
designer as saying events<br />
such as these, and the<br />
immediate subsequent media<br />
coverage, has such an impact<br />
it can make sales jump<br />
overnight.<br />
Johanna Johnson’s label<br />
was founded in 2005 with<br />
the aim of bringing the<br />
sophistication and glamour of<br />
the golden era of Hollywood<br />
to Australian brides. Now<br />
that modern Hollywood has<br />
discovered her who knows<br />
what the future holds for this<br />
mother of two?<br />
