Romance Was Born Casual Friday Dress

We can barely contain our excitement and are just beside ourselves to welcome Romance Was Born as well as New Zealand labels Deadly Ponies and Lonely Hearts Club to the lineup of brands that you have come to love from Crimson Phoenix.

The creativity and sure fire statement pieces of Romance Was Born designers, Anna Plunkett and Luke Sales, are simply… wonderful. Their latest collection Nightmare On Wall St is inspired by the “greed is good” era: think Rolexes and the nouveau riche, lots of glitter and shine. We hope loyal fans of Romance Was Born are as excited as we are to know that you can head down to Crimson Phoenix to channel your inner Gordon Gecko!
