Melbourne Cup fun and fashion!

Belting out the hits! Taylor Dayne in the Sensis Marquee.

The bold and beautiful came out to play on Melbourne Cup day! This is one of my favourite days in Victoria as I love how everyone gets dressed up in colourful style and heads along for a good time. The atmosphere is always festive, fun and friendly. In racing news, Rekindling took out the race and provided owner Lloyd Williams with a record-breaking sixth win in the $6.25 million feature.  Over 90,000 people where at Flemington Racecourse for the race that stops the nation, I was on the scene to capture all the fabulous action, let’s take a look…

Underground vibes at MFW Menswear

Keeping it fresh! This year’s Garage Menswear show took us under the Town Hall at Melbourne Fashion Week. The rustic venue gave way for an edgy showcase of the new season looks. Keeping with the diversity theme of this year’s event there were several female models rockin’ the clothing on the runway and hey this makes sense as I’ve had plenty of my girlfriends raid my wardrobe!

Let’s talk trends. The bum bag is having a moment and it’s certainly a handy accessory for us mobile phone lovers. No hanging onto a bag means those hands are free to organise that next Tinder date on the run. But with the bum bag, do not wear around the waist, wear it on the diagonal across the chest and you’ll be on point. Military hardware made for masculine details and I’ll be trying out this one myself. Also, it looks like the cool mix of a suit teamed with sneakers is here to stay, as it just looks so goddam stylish and I’m sure we can all agree is really comfortable.

Let’s take a look at the action…

Melbourne Fashion Week fun has begun!

The fun is underway at Melbourne Fashion Week 2017. It’s a fabulous showcase of the coming trends and styles for the spring/summer fashion season. This year there is a strong emphasis on diversity which is great to see, so far I’ve seen a gay wedding on the runway and female models in the menswear show. MFW 2017 boasts a massive line-up  with over 150 events across the city – including Premium Runways with the country’s leading designers, industry workshops, exhibitions, parties, films, music, and free fashion experiences. There is something for everyone!

The hub is Melbourne Town Hall and a great place to go celeb and street style spotting plus they feature live music and DJ sets. We’re only half-way through so get amongst it – link to schedule and buy tickets at bottom of post.

Follow me on my social channels and stay tuned for trend reports. See you on the runway.

Some of my opening night highlights…

First Look!

Prepare to be WOWed fashion lovers!

At the media preview I got first look inside The House of Dior: Seventy Years of Haute Couture at the National Gallery of Victoria.

This is the world premiere of an exhibition that celebrates 70 years of the famous fashion house Christian Dior.

It’s a divine spectacle with 140 handcrafted garments on display among a setting of chandeliers, mirrors and a featured grand staircase.

To see the gowns up close and take in the detail is simply amazing, plus it’s good to play ‘who wore that dress’. I spotted Miranda Kerr’s wedding dress and Jennifer Lawrence’s 2014 Golden Globes design of the show-stopping white tiered creation with two black bands.

The exhibition kicks off Sunday 27 Aug 2017, let’s look at my pics…
