SYDNEY, May 10, 2001/ FW/ --- Peter Morrissey who entered the Australian fashion scene during the 1980s has a new partner, the OrotonGroup, Australia's leader in managing fashion brands.

With the new cash infusion last year, the designer has gone from strength to strength. The Morrissey label which he launched in 1997 is bigger than ever.

His Spring 2002 collection proves that there are lot of things to come for the label.

Harnessing the trends that have come up from the international fashion runways, Peter Morrissey picked and chose what to use, incorporating them in this highly commercial collection.

But to say that it is derivative will be wrong, because the designer actually made these trends to fit within the Aussie lifestyle.

Call it convergence of different elements.
