I think most people have heard a rumor or two that big things have been happening lately in the world of Clear Concept Designs... and with summer looming and the party scene starting up again we'd like to extend a warm hand to everyone to come see our new store right in the heart of the city smile.gif

Whilst renovations are underway in our display room we have set up a place for you to come in and have a look at what we're up to!
(What can I say...we want everyone to get as excited as we are!) AND....to make it even better we're setting up a relaxed chill zone for people to come in and wind down from the weekend as well as offering services generally unseen in Adelaide:

Phattie Restoration..NEW!!!. :Design your own gators and have them made on the day! NEW!!!
Reflective: stock sales...9 colors: sheets & piping avail. (tape coming soon!!)
Custom Reflective Patches:...sewn on to what you want, while you wait!
Design: your own outfit...rave, club, street, special occasion or everyday wear
Alterations: and conversions to re-vamp pre-existing clothing
Come in choose: from a selection of stock items we have avail.

& if you've ever been interested in adding an electronic touch to your clothing,
Clear Concept Designs is the home of the beat-reactive phatties!
Come in and talk to the designers @ >>>

Holy crap.

That is such awesome news, Kirsty biggrin.gif

Congrats to you, and whoever else is involved with making this happen!

Will you and/or Marty be in the store most times? If so, I'll be sure to come visit you (my work is only a street over!).

Out of curiosity, to have some normal jeans altered around the waist (to be smaller) - how much would that cost, roughly?
KandiRaver
OMG.. that's fantastic! I'm so proud! it's about time Adelaide had something like this again!!!

It's well deserved Special K. Like i've said previously, you've worked very hard, and i'm sure adelaide, athems and the scene in general will be there to support you!

I'll be close to the city on Sunday so i'll definitely try and make it for a look-see!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!
BOOSTING

Just to make sure everyone finds us ok, we're up the stairs between the sushi place and the bottle shop on James Place smile.gif and starting on the 21st we'll have Zoe (Gemini Star) in as our resident masseuse!! thumbsupsmiley.png (times to be confirmed) We will always be on the lookout for new things to keep these weekends interesting!! Just ignore the bad paint job and window finishes at the moment.. tongue.gif we're still very much hard at work getting everything ready for new carpet, painting and.... a dividing partition.. biggrin.gif instead of a wall blink.gif which means, just the room itself would be new and interesting from week to week tongue.gif

Thanks for all your support! See you all there! Marty & K
