Melbourne’s Fashion Scene Takes a Bold Step Forward with the Launch of XIXI Studio
Last night, the pulse of Melbourne’s vibrant fashion scene resonated through the eclectic streets of Fitzroy, as the all-new XIXI Creative Studio opened its doors to a whirlwind of style, creativity, and innovation. Founded by the visionary Lindsay Morgan, XIXI is set to redefine the way fashion creatives collaborate and bring their visions to life.
As guests mingled amidst the chic décor of the studio with hand painted murals adorning the walls, Lindsay took the stage to share her inspiring vision for Melbourne as Australia’s Fashion Capital. “Melbourne has always been at the forefront of fashion, but we needed a space that truly embodies creative freedom,” she declared, her passion for the industry evident in every word. “XIXI is designed to provide a sanctuary for artists, where they can unleash their creativity without constraints.”
One of the standout features of XIXI is its unparalleled control over lighting and ambiance. Lindsay emphasised the importance of a studio that can adapt to the needs of each project—whether it’s editorial shoots or advertorial campaigns. With customisable lighting options and a variety of backgrounds and props available, photographers and models alike will find themselves immersed in a world where every detail can be meticulously crafted to perfection.
But XIXI isn’t just a studio; it’s a collaborative hub. Lindsay understands the challenges that come with organising shoots, and she’s here to lighten the load. Creatives can either bring their own photographers and talent or choose from a selection of her preferred collaborators. “We want to make it easy for you to focus on what you do best,” she said, highlighting her commitment to creating a seamless experience for everyone involved.
The energy in the room was electric as attendees explored the space, snapping photos and engaging with the artistic installations that adorned the walls. Fashion editors, photographers, and models from Brooklyn Model MGMT exchanged ideas and inspiration, all while marvelling at the potential that XIXI holds for pushing the boundaries of creativity in Melbourne.
As the night progressed, it became clear that XIXI is more than just a studio; it’s a movement. A place where Melbourne’s fashion community can come together to innovate, collaborate, and elevate their craft.
