Celebrating its twenty years in 2015, Fashion Week Australia is the only global platform which provides an opportunity to the Australian designers to bring their creations to limelight. The Australian Fashion Week is a unique podium which in effect is an international congregation of purchasers, sellers and consumers.

Scheduled over five days, the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Australia was packed with models showcasing 70-influenced flares to elegant sheers, monochromes to lace ensembles and pronounced adornments on run-way shows.

The main focus of the brands was on the designs that an average Australian woman will want to wear. Gary Bigeni’s idea of bringing crisp cotton shirts and wide-leg pants was decidedly elegant and stylish. Tony Maticevski went for sophisticated glamorous designs. His 3D-designed architectural dresses were inspiring and led to quite an interesting debate both among the designers as well as the consumers.

A very interesting knit-wear collection was showcased by International Woolmark winners, Strateas, which comprised of wearable coats and elegant sweater dresses. On the other hand, Johanna Johnson and Steven Khalil came up with some formal, elegantly designed, luxurious metallic gowns with sequins detail.

Here are our highlights and big trends, perfect to give plenty of ideas for your next shopping spree!
