Sydney’s iconic Town Hall was the beautiful venue for a stunning showcase of Australian Style featuring a snapshot of each of the designers showing at this year’s MBFF. Vibrant colour palettes for the new spring/summer season were awash with fiery oranges, sulphuric yellows, turquoise blues and pillar box reds.
Patterns and textures featured heavily as Aussie designers showed their love of playful finishes while lace, beading and sequins brought some bling to the catwalk.
