Double Trouble - Boy Oh Boy Dolly Special

Dolly Special (Year approx 1988-89)
Models Simon, Anika & Matt
Photography Warwick Orme

I'm not too sure of the date for this Dolly Special, but judging by the brogues in this feature, my guess is '88 - '89.  The models here are Shaun and Carla, with photography by Marco Franchina.  Speaking of the brogues in this spread, I see they are from Succhi and I remember it being located in Melbourne Central (in Victoria that is) when it first opened, and their shoes were sooo fabulous with striking designs and very high quality.  Of course I could not afford their shoes, but used to go in and browse the array.

 A gorgeous and striking make-up feature from this Dolly Special of '82 - my favourite year of the 80's I think!  The cover is so so sweet, and looking at the credits of this issue, this was during the reign of Lisa Wilkinson as Editor.  I do think she was the best editor Dolly Magazine has ever had, but then she was lucky to be at the helm during this period of time that's for sure.

The first shot is 'Dramatic You' and the second of course is the 'Romantic You'.  I think I prefer the dramatic one... I just stare and stare at it for ages sometimes.  It's very Duran Duran-esue and I may try and copy it for the Duran Duran concert that I'm going to in March here in Melbourne Australia!
