Melbourne Fashion Week has come round again, and some of the world’s top established and emerging designers are gracing us with their presence – and strutting their stuff on the catwalk – for this seven day fashion extravaganza.

In this fast-fashion world, it is easy for trends to quickly reach saturation point quickly after they have landed - as Yves Saint Laurent once said: “fashions fade, style is eternal.” 

With another few days left on the runways, we can’t wait to feast our peepers on more delicious fabrics and tailored looks.

White Australia has never been very good at listening, if we were, it would not have taken this long for a “Change the Date” campaign to gather steam. Frankly, if we were good listeners, a lot of terrible things, a lot of the violence we are responsible for may just have been avoided all together.
