Weitzman boots. Then, take you back in time to follow the 

rise of the high heel from its humble beginnings as a men’s 

accessory to its status as a high fashion commodity. 

For an update on hair styles, we talk to Alex Wirz-Dunbar, 

owner of Victoria Street’s newest salon Chère Chérie. Her 

amazing international career is impressive, to say the least. 

Where is your hemline sitting this summer? We show you 

some of our best summer dresses so you can see why short

On Trend 

We love Zoe Karssen’s new range, stocked 

at Seletti Concept Store in Queenstown. 

The Amsterdam-based fashion house 

designs easy-to-wear tops and bottoms with 

expressive graphics. The look: a mixture 

of rock ’n’ roll aesthetics with pop culture 

references. 

On The Move 

Best known and loved for designs that effortlessly embody 

youthful elegance and adventurous charm, New Zealand-based 

store RUBY is the latest tenant to confirm a move to The 

Crossing. Opening mid-September on Market Lane, the store will 

comprise of two brands: RUBY, under the direction of designer 

Deanna Didovich; and Liam, which is headed by designer Emily 

Miller-Sharma. We are especially loving Liam’s new season 

range, as featured. The collections always deliver refined and 

sophisticated separates.


BIANCA 

ASTLE 

of Ivy Blu 

The inspiration behind my 

flagship store is to offer a place 

in which I can have every single style 

available. I decided to open a flagship 

store in Christchurch after closing 

the Auckland store, which was very 

difficult to manage remotely. This 

way I can see what’s going on, I can 

meet my customers and offer oneon-one 

styling. 

My favourite piece from the 

new collection would have to 

be the Kitty Dress in our signature 

print Secret Garden. I love strapless 

dresses but this one has a sleeve 

so you feel a little more covered 

up. The print is on a beautiful pink/ 

peach background and suits most 

skin tones. 

My most treasured possession? 

My nine pairs of Stuart Weitzman 

boots. I couldn’t live without them! 

The first thing I do in the 

morning is let my five-month-old 

English bulldog out before I start my 

day with a herbal tea. 

As a designer I’m motivated 

by what my customers are telling 

me – I ask them lots of questions; it’s 

important I listen to them and get 

it right. 

My most recent extravagant 

purchase? Hmm, where do I start? 

Perhaps my Stuart Weitzman boots? 

I think I need to stop now! 

My dream holiday destination 

would be the Greek Islands. I’ve 

hinted so many times to my husband 

but I’m still waiting to go... maybe 

next year! 

Top of my playlist right now 

would be – I cant believe I’m 

saying this out loud, but – my 

daughter loves [British girl group] 

Little Mix. We listen to it together 

every day on the way to school, 

so Little Mix is right up there! 

The piece of advice I would 

give my younger self would 

be: stay positive. Even when life 

throws you the biggest curveball, 

stay positive; things always pan out 

in the end.

WELL- 

HEELED 

Victoria Tait follows the rise of high 

heels from a practical menswear item 

to high fashion commodity. 

Joan Crawford inspects her shoe closet. Photo Getty Images


The high heel dates as far back as the 1400s, 

when prostitutes in Venice would wear what 

were then known as chopines, to stand taller 

and look more imposing than their rivals. The 

shoes reached heights up to 18 inches. The 

later invention of heeled riding boots increased 

the mass popularity of heels within both male 

and female fashion, although they were then 

predominantly worn by men and the heel of a 

practical and sturdy design. 

These simple heels soon evolved into more 

stylised heels that became thinner and higher 

during the mid-1500s. Catherine de Medici is 

said to have made high heels fashionable and 

functional for women, due to her marriage to 

a rather tall Duke of Orleans (who became the 

King of France). 

The petite Catherine de Medici felt somewhat 

insecure next to the Duke’s favourite mistress, 

Diane de Poitiers. A pair of two-inch heels 

remedied this, giving her a more notable physique 

and adding a sultry sway to her walk. The appeal 

of these heels caught on quickly, with the elegant 

footwear soon associated with wealth and 

privilege. 

Mary Tudor was another royal who pursued 

heels for height, however, Queen Elizabeth I was 

documented as the first wearer of European high 

heels, in a painting from 1595. 

Fashionable heels were popular for both sexes 

by 1590, and a person who had authority or 

wealth was often referred to as “well-heeled”. By 

1790 men had entirely stopped wearing the heel 

and it became a symbol of femininity. 

Shoe Facts 

• Marilyn Monroe was said to shave a quarter-inch 

off one of her stilettos so she walked with a wiggle. 

• Imelda Marcos is one of the world’s most famous 

shoe collectors. The former First Lady of the 

Philippines owned 1200 pairs. 

• There is fashion folklore surrounding the Christian 

Louboutin red soles. According to The New Yorker, 

the red soles were inspired by Andy Warhol’s 

drawing Flowers. In 1993, Louboutin designed a 

shoe using the drawing as inspiration, however, 

when the prototype of the shoe arrived, he felt like 

something was missing. At this point, he looked 

around and saw an assistant painting her nails with 

a bright red polish. He grabbed her nail polish and 

painted it all over the black sole of the shoe – and 

so, the red sole was born. 

• King Louis XIV of France was known for starting 

many fashion trends. From his early 20s until he 

was at least 63 years old, Louis XIV had his heels 

covered in red Moroccan leather or painted that 

colour. Maybe this is where Christian Louboutin 

got his inspiration from? 

Early Manolo Blahnik Shoes

King Louis XIV of France 

Jimmy Choo


• Altocalciphilia is the condition of having a high heel 

fetish. Carrie Bradshaw was definitely afflicted. 

• Over 80 craftsmen will touch one pair of Stuart 

Weitzman heels during the six to seven weeks of 

production. Perfection takes time. 

• Even World War II didn’t stop women wearing 

high heels. Designers simply turned to materials 

that weren’t rationed, including wood, straw and 

snakeskin, to create high-heeled masterpieces. 

• Jimmy Choo has been referenced in top-of-thechart 

songs by Hilary Duff, Shyne, Pitbull, Clipse, 

Sway, 50 Cent, and Chester French. 

• The Guinness World Record for most people 

running in high-heeled shoes is 155. 

• The stiletto heel was invented by Christian Dior’s 

shoe designer Roger Vivier in 1954. He created a 

slender plastic heel of incredible strength that he 

referred to as “the needle”. 

• The world’s most expensive shoes are Harry 

Winston’s “Ruby Slippers”, featuring 1350 

carats of rubies to celebrate The Wizard of Oz’s 

50th anniversary, and Stuart Weitzman’s “Rita 

Hayworth” satin heels complete with sapphires, 

diamonds and rubies, and worn by Rita in 

Shawshank Redemption. Both pairs are valued at 

USD$3 million.

MAKING 

WAVES 

Opening her own salon seemed the 

natural choice for globe-trotting 

hair stylist Alex Wirz-Dunbar. 

Victoria Tait speaks with her about 

the latest trends, and her excitement 

to be working in Christchurch. 

I understand you have a background in high fashion 

– can you tell me about the publications and people 

you’ve worked with? 

When I was in the USA and UK, I had the privilege of working 

with many talented individuals from the television and publications 

industries. Some notable works include: Vogue, W Magazine, New 

York Times style section, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, America’s Next 

Top Model (season 4), NYC Fashion Week, and styling Hollywood 

babes like Emmy Rossum. I also worked on daytime television 

favourite Katie Couric’s hair for ABC’s coverage of the Queen’s 

Diamond Jubilee, and had the honour of working and training 

alongside Oribe, the namesake of a very luxurious brand of hair 

products that we carry at Chère Chérie. 

What was your inspiration behind Chère Chérie? 

We wanted to offer a luxurious hair experience to the people of 

Christchurch, and to create an environment for a dedicated team 

to flourish. 

What is one of the biggest hair trends emerging for 

spring/summer? 

The shag and mullet are back in a big way. I foresee this will 

translate to softer, more layered looks. It’s a nod to the glamorous 

’70s but with a modern, polished vibe. We can all start embracing 

a bit more of our natural texture and stop fighting it. 

What are your views on sustainability and 

environmental products and responsibilities within the 

hair industry? 

We take our environmental impact very seriously and we are 

doing what we can to limit that impact. We compost our food 

waste and hair clippings, and we use low-energy lighting. We are 

building up our stock of salon plants to help purify the air and to 

add a little more greenery to our environment. We use and carry 

Davines hair products, which are created with ingredients sourced 

from biodiversity farms and are also carbon neutral. We offer 

clients the option of re-filling their shampoos and conditioners, to 

help reduce our use of plastics. Every bit helps! 

What’s your biggest fashion addiction? 

Definitely lipstick and jeans!

POLISH 

and perfect your look 

Dr Frost from Face Value gives us all the 

information we need to know for three of their 

most popular non-surgical cosmetic procedures.


1. 

Twenty years ago, a face lift was the only way to get rid of 

wrinkly, sagging skin. Today, thanks to the invention of Botox 

therapy, dermal fillers, and skin rejuvenation techniques, there 

is a much less painful and time-consuming way to give you the 

results you desire. All of these procedures can take years off 

the face – and can be done during your lunch hour, with no 

invasive surgery and little recovery time. 

BOTOX THERAPY 

Description of the treatment: 

Botox /Dysport is a natural purified protein that temporarily 

relaxes the muscles that cause lines and wrinkles. It is most 

commonly used to soften frown lines, crow’s feet and 

forehead lines and prevent them from deepening. Both men 

and women benefit from this safe and effective treatment. 

When administered by an experienced practitioner, you will 

retain natural expression, without risk of that “frozen” look. 

Procedure: 

After consent and education, the actual treatment is relatively 

quick – around 10 minutes. There is no downtime at all. 

Tiny doses are injected into the area being treated. There is 

minimal pain, with most clients experiencing a stinging that 

passes immediately. 

Outcome: 

It takes three to four days to see results, with the full effects 

appearing after 14 days. You will still have positive facial 

expression and will look generally refreshed with softening of 

wrinkles and lines in the treated area. On average, lasts 

four months. 

Cost: 

Face Value charges $18/unit of Botox, $6 for Dysport, with 

the average cost of the frown area $360.

3. 


DERMAL FILLERS 


Dermal fillers are clear gels made from hyaluranon, a natural 

carbohydrate already present in your skin that declines with 

age. The current trend in the use of fillers for facial rejuvenation 

is that of revolumising. Placing dermal filler at key points in the 

face can restore lost volume for a refreshed look. Fillers can 

also be used to enhance your lips, cheek and chin. 

Procedure: 

The non-permanent gel is injected into the skin to physically lift 

and sculpt it, correcting wrinkles, folds, scars and asymmetries 

of the face. 

You may experience some redness and swelling immediately 

after treatment with possible mild bruising. 

Dermal fillers contain local anaesthetic, so most people 

experience minimal discomfort. Numbing cream can be used 

to enhance comfort in sensitive areas such as the lips. 

Outcome: 

The results of filler can be seen immediately, but can take 4 to 6 

weeks to settle into the final result. Hyaluranon fillers last between 

6 and 24 months, depending on the filler used and the site. 

Cost: 

Cost varies according to the amount of filler used. Lip 

enhancement, for example, can range from $400 to $750. 

SKIN REJUVENATION AND 

REHYDRATION USING THE 

V2 SKIN BOOSTER 


The V2 Skin Booster utilises a new delivery device that enables 

precise doses and placement of hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, 

vitamins and minerals to the dermis of the skin. This 

combination of active ingredients assists in the synthesis and 

stimulation of collagen production and dermal restructuring, 

resulting in beautifully hydrated, nourished, more youthful 

glowing skin. 

Procedure: 

Using the V2 injector gun, Redensity 1 is injected into the 

skin of the face, neck, or décolletage. The device is unique in 

that it works by applying a light suction to the skin prior to 

each injection, leading to a more comfortable and accurate 

procedure. The procedure takes 30- 45 minutes and clients 

experience minimal discomfort. The skin appears red and 

bumpy for 24-48 hours. A course of three treatments spaced 

three to four weeks apart is recommended, with a top-up 

every 6 to 12 months. 

Outcome: 

Clients see results after the first treatment with ongoing 

rejuvenation and regeneration occurring over time. Results 

are impressive with reduction in fine lines and crepiness, and 

a general improvement in skin texture and strength. The skin 

looks and feels firmer and has a youthful glow. 

Cost: 

Face Value is offering a pre Cup Week special price of $1500 

for the three-treatment course, a saving of $150. 

Dr Philip Frost is a graduate of Otago School of Medicine, with 

over 20 years’ experience in the specialty area of Appearance 

and Cosmetic Medicine. He recommends with any medical 

procedure that you have a comprehensive consultation and 

assessment to develop an individual treatment plan with 

education regarding products and procedures. At Face Value a 

gradual, step-by-step treatment plan will be tailored individually.
