Killester College Fashion Parade

Friday 18th October

Melbourne Spring Fashion Week 

On Wednesday the 5th of September, Year 11 and 12 Vet VCE students attended one of the many Melbourne Fashion Week events. The fashion students were in the audience of the Thursday Night fashion show held at the Melbourne Town Hall. The focus of this collection was evening wear by some of Australia’ forefront designers. These included collections by Calibre, Carla Zampatti, Dom Bagnato, Gibson, Jason Grech, Joe Black, LEO & LIN, Nicola Finetti and Still Still Studio.  

This was an aspirational evening wear show featuring established Australian artisans, designers and tailors.  Designers showcased their intricate hand-embellished designs for modern event wear, suiting and bridal. The students were also treated to a performance by the D.J. Confidence Man.  Luckily the rain held off and the very luxurious designs and colours of the show soon warmed us up.  The students were very inspired and impressed by the parade and it has given them new momentum to complete garments for our Fashion show to be held on the 18th of October at the Art Technology Exhibition.  The Fashion parade will showcase students’ work will be on Friday the 18th of October from 7pm to 9 pm. Keep this date free for this glamorous event.
