Best Pieces from Australian Fashion Week Resort 19

Many of the best pieces so far are attributed to new and returning designers. Every piece shown has had ready-to-wear pieces that evoke style, passion and flair in surprisingly distinct styles.

 

Camilla and Marc

 

Camilla and Marc, who opened the show were celebrating 15 years on the catwalk. Another great Australian brand that came together in 2003. Their presence was bold and daring, their stage was set on a sand-laden strip that could have been misinterpreted for Mars. One of their primary features were their statement shoppers large enough to hold that kitchen sink.

Their collections also include swimwear, ready to wear, denim and footwear.

New designers on the runway this year are Pereira Fitzgerald, I.Am.Gia, Leo + Lin, Acler, Client Liaison, Chris Ran Lin and many more. All of whom have distinctive styles but are searching for the same advance on their label that develops with attending the Australian Fashion Week.

 

Whyte Studio

 

Fashion designer Bianca Whyte, who is no stranger to Australian fashion, is on her second year showcasing her collections. Her label Whyte Studio is characterized as a “luxury and advanced contemporary wear brand with iconic pieces.” It combines luxury with functionality to flatter a woman’s figure.

Her collection is sleek and multi-functional with a side of designer tailoring and sports-inspired outerwear. This year at the Australian Fashion Week she produced a collection with style and glamour along with glitz.

Pereira Fitzgerald

 

A minimalist design combination from Bella Pereira and Gemma Fitzgerald, smashed all the rules when it came to matching colours and textures. With the black Ra-Ra skirt being the most attention-grabbing piece along with the self-assured hot pink summer dress, they nevertheless managed to find a middle ground for easy to wear fashion that can be worn now.
