Inspired by the glamorous desert oasis of Palm Springs, the star of muchloved<br />

local label Clique’s new high summer range ‘Vacation’ is surely its<br />

sculpting swimwear featuring innovative ‘control mesh’ – a whisper-thin<br />

layer of high-performance knit mesh nestled between the lining and outer<br />

fabric, cleverly designed to hug curves and smooth unwanted lumps and<br />

bumps into a confidence-boosting canvas. Clique’s The Best one-piece togs<br />

($129) come in versatile classic black and two on-trend hues – periwinkle<br />

blue and carmine red.<br />

Dirty laundry<br />

Make over your laundry in the most sustainable and stylish way with new<br />

Melbourne-based, Kiwi-co-founded brand Dirt. With a product line-up<br />

featuring liquid and powder laundry detergents plus their acclaimed stain<br />

removers, Dirt’s 100 percent biodegradable formulations contain nothing<br />

unnecessary, eschewing excess water and bubbling agents designed to<br />

create an illusion of value. Designed as a refillable system, Dirt minimises<br />

waste through reusable pouches that contain up to 80 percent less plastic<br />

compared to market alternatives, and actively encourages customers to<br />

return refill pouches to the factory to be reused for new purchases. Even<br />

pouches that can’t be reused aren’t wasted and instead are repurposed<br />

into 100 percent recycled plastic laundry scoops.<br />
