Kimbra's top is by Alice McCall, and her skirt is from a vintage shop in Vancouver. The black jacket second hand was a $5 steal from a garage sale in Vancouver!

What makes a great outfit to perform in? Is there anything you have to watch out for?
"I keep my eye always on fabrics. Not so much the shape or fit - because that can always be altered or changed (there are about a hundred safety pins in most of my performance outfits!). A great stage outfit for me, comes from an inspired compliment of patterns and colors – even if they clash at times! – and a strong sense of movement and creativity. I like people to feel transported by what they see on stage in conjunction with the music. Outfits can really add another dimension of depth and fantasy to a concert."
