Linda Britten

21 years wearing @lindabritten dresses deserves a reel! I feel so lucky to have worn these beautiful creations on many exciting occasions. Linda really is a legend in the singing world because her beautifully crafted gowns move with us as we sing and cope with our ever changing bodies. She is an artist and generous heart and I’m honoured to call her a friend. Thank you Linda. #lindabritten #operaclosets #operasingersofinstagram #melbournedesigner #21years

The Rose. Inspired by a childhood memory of my mother in a yellow ball gown, this piece explores how memory is held and reshaped over time. Photographs allow these moments to resurface, but when translated into fabric and form, they take on a new presence. The memory remains — but its expression becomes something entirely different. Gown created in collaboration with the incredibly talented @lindabritten Final days to experience Whispers woven in water wings and wildflowers 📆 Open today 12-7PM 📍 @fortyfivedownstairs

‘Whispers Woven in Water, Wings & Wildflowers’ is an immersive art installation by Australian visual storyteller Pam Davison, presented in collaboration with couture designer Linda Britten. Combining fine art photography, couture garments, sound, and spatial design, the exhibition explores memory as something lived, embodied, and continually shaping the present. Extending beyond the frame, the installation transforms still images into sculptural garments. Davison’s photographs are printed onto fabric, deconstructed, and reassembled into couture gowns — allowing memory to move, fold, and breathe. The result is a layered experience that dissolves the boundaries between image, body, and lived experience. Set within a dreamlike garden environment, the exhibition invites visitors to consider how memory is formed, distorted, preserved, and worn. Sensory cues — water, birdsong, floral forms, and sound — guide audiences through a contemplative space where perception slows and attention deepens. This Saturday 28 February, you are invited to join us for a series of intimate artist-led experiences. These events will allow visitors to engage more deeply with the exhibit and offer insight into the making of the work, the collaboration between photography and couture, and the role of memory, material, and transformation. - 12:30 PM | Curated Artist Walkthrough | A guided walkthrough offering insight into the artworks, garments, and the transformation of photographs into sculptural form. - 2:30 PM | Artist in conversation (Q&A) | An intimate conversation with Pam Davison and Linda Britten exploring memory, material, collaboration, and the ideas that shaped the work. Attendance is free. No RSVP required. The exhibition finishes this Saturday 28 February. Opening hours: Tuesday-Friday 12-7pm, Saturday 12-4pm. #whisperswoveninwaterwingsandwildflowers #pamdavison #exhibition #melbourneexhibition #melbmoment

Stunning photos by Lucy and fabulous film by Alister @shetakespictureshemakesfilms A brilliant fabric installation by Tim Britten-Finschi @servicestudio.co with printed photos captured by the fabulous Lucy @shetakespictureshemakesfilms of Pam's and Ron's previous celebrations a few years ago. Congratulations Pam and Ron on your enduring love story ❤️
