Watch them pop!


Polished runway, steamed garments and VIP allocations...

Today is Day 1 of the annual Rosemount Australian Fashion Week. Exhibiting Australia's best designers, competition has definitely stepped up, with the increase of emerging designers presenting their fresh perspective on fashion. Throughout the country, fashion and textile design institutions have popped up rapidly, in particular throughout Sydney and Melbourne, including The University of Technology Sydney, Whitehouse, Raffles, The Australian National University, TAFE, The Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology and FBI Fashion College. These tertiary facilities provide education, training, and mentoring for the future fashion designers of Australia, many of which are keen to make it to the runway, however this will become increasingly challenging as there are more institutions now than ever before. Raising the game play of young designers striving to make it to the top, it is truly the best of the best who make it to this exclusive fashion event.

Past graduates such as Dion Lee from Sydney Institute of Technology, Karla Špetić from East Sydney Technical College and Magdalena Velevska from UTS, have materialised the ultimate dream of an Australian fashion designer, presenting their work to Australia this week.

Best of luck to you all!
