Step Into Paradise (ATOM Study Guide)

For forty–five years, Jenny Kee and Linda Jackson have shared a passionate love affair with Australia. It is a passion that has bound them in a most extraordinary and enduring friendship; a creative collaboration that defined a generation. Jenny and Linda embraced the vibrancy of our unique landscape and elevated our most treasured icons from Australiana tourist kitsch to the height of fashion and art. They looked at Australia with wit, irreverence and astonishing imagination to create a distinct Australian fashion like no other and gifted it to the world. No other creative pairing has had such a lasting impact on our sense of self, our fashion and design identity.
