About airdriejoolz

Hi, I'm Airdrie, and I'm a jewellery designer. (This choice of career kind of had to happen, because I am obsessed with jewellery, and I have been known to walk up to strangers in the street so that I can look at what they are wearing more closely!) My design name is Joolz. I've just released my third collection, and I'm very excited about it.
I love playing around with eco-chic ideas, and my faves in the new collection are pieces made using recycled materials eg vintage playing cards, old kid's toys and recycled umbrella silk.

MBFF and the Brisbane Soiree over - NEXT!!!
On Thursday I got to see Joolz on the main catwalk at the Hilton's Grand Ballroom for MBFF - Tia Carrigan had borrowed all the Murinid necklaces and Hunter Gatherer bracelets and draped them all over her models as they strutted down the catwalk showing off her divine designs. I felt very priveleged to have Joolz included alongside such a talented young Australian designer's work! Her dresses had lots of wonderful detailing in the neckli

Joolz news...
Just back from several interstate exhibitons. At one I met a designer who wants Joolz for her catwalk show during the Mercedes Benz Fashion Festival coming up in a few weeks in Brisbane. I also heard from Vanessa Amorosi's agent to let me know she is now wearing Joolz as she jets off to LA. The latest issue of Fashion Trend came out with a great little mention of Joolz. The PK Walker launch was tonight, and the Fashion Means the Wor
