more thanks

Thanks to Janah, who took many lovely photos at the launch, which she used in her post about Hello Again. Check it out...

thank you thank you thank you

My deepest gratitude to every single person who were involved in the launch on Friday in any way. Thanks to all those loyal friends and customers who came by, we really appreciate it.

Thanks also to everyone who contributed to the success of the evening - Salome, for making Vestibull a part of the excitement, Ingi and Lauren for the delicious milkshakes, Olga for the brownies, Jardine Bakery for the cupcakes, Gary from Vespa who came especially to untrip the tripswitch in his workshop after we overloaded one plug, Wilhelm from Jardine for being understanding about the bass, Tobie, Stephen and Michael for getting all the stock made so beautifully, Trynity, for all her hard work leading up to and during the event and of course the biggest shout out goes to We Set Sail, for sharing their wonderful music with us, we were blown away! (catch them on Friday at Speed Way Cafe in Hope street - details on their fanpage here.)

Night of a Thousand Drawings

Hello Again is now also a drop-off point for Night of a Thousand Drawings. The deadline is looming very close though - 1 Nov, but maybe, just maybe we can get away with submitting something on Monday...

For those who are not familiar with this, it's a beautiful charity event. This is how it works: draw anything, on anything, as long as it's A5, then sign and date it and attach your name, email and phone number and drop it off at any of the drop-off points. These drawings will all be sold on the big night ( 5 Nov at Woodstock Industrial Centre for Cape Town), and all proceeds go to some very special charities.

This great annual event is organised by our new friends at Word Of Art.

We Create at Hello Again

I am very pleased to welcome We Create to Hello Again. They are supplying me with tees designed by Straat-Toe. This one is called 'Bitter Pille', and there are two more.

dominion

I have some brilliant new tees in the shop. They are by Fay Abader for her label, Dominion, and I must say, her designs are very special. Very fresh and clean. Above are just 2 examples, there are many more. She also makes exquisite perspex cuffs, which you'll find at Hello Again.

summer summer summer

Huge apologies for the month(+) long silence. I won't bore you with all my excuses!

Finally, the launch of our new summer things will be going down on the 30th, and it is a good excuse to celebrate the 1st birthday of Hello Again opening in Bloemstreet. ( actually on the 1st of September already, but hey, why not?)

There will be a lot of newness in the shop, thanks and sorry to all those loyal customers who'd keep on popping in, just to be confronted with the sameness that's been Hello Again for the past two months. At least the basic staples like v-necks and leggings were always here.

The party starts from 4pm, and will go on until it naturally dies down. We are having some live acoustic music this time and of course there will be things to eat and drink as usual. Hope you will join us.

By the way - the attached flyer is a scan of the screenprinted ones we printed over the weekend. We did a colour merge, and used orange, pink and red ink. I like them!
