Stand-out trends we have been seeing are bold clashing colours, strong pink and orange tones, especially in the Havilah collection. Layers and tunic-styled dresses over cropped pants are also a major look coming through emerging designers. We couldn't help but love the rose tinted glasses styled with this collection. A trend we think is here to stay this summer!
Olli showed us structured frills, paired with bermuda shorts and matrix glasses. The lilac and minty tones of this collection we can already tell are going to be everywhere over the warmer months.
Pilgrim styled bell-sleeves and velvet suiting were stand outs in Caitlin Crisp's graduate show. The attention to detail and fabrics were impressive. There is definitely a long wish list after seeing this incredible homage to 70's glam.

Iconic New Zealand shoe designer Kathryn Wilson has just celebrated 15 years in the New Zealand fashion industry. After a few years away from Fashion Week, 2017 saw Kathryn Wilson return with a highly anticipated show. Kathryn Wilson put on another spectacular event showcasing her AW19 collection, packed with designers, industry heavy hitters, buyers, media and editors all coming together to celebrate 15 years of success.
The collection saw some major trends coming through - noting that the kitten heel boot is here to stay, bold reds and animal prints showing that next season is all about bold, bright and fun.
After the show, the designer hosted her a special party to tribute the people and mentors that have helped the footwear brand's major success over the past 15 years.
Atmosphere is always something you can guarantee with the entire venue buzzing, we headed backstage to have a look at the key make-up look for the show.
The inspiration behind the beauty look was 70's New York Punk scene, but goes to studio 54 later on in the evening. She's part DIY punk, part retro glamour. With disheveled wet-look top knots finishing off the model's looks.
New Sincerity Deep Irony showcased a mix of 70's glam and 80's power moves in an eclectic mix denim, leather and stiletto boots.
The major suiting moments accentuated with micro skirts and micro cross body bags showed that no one does grunge-glam like Stolen.
The models did their final walk with illuminated branded wheelie bins, and the brand's creative Marc Moore - Stolen Girlfriends Club sure know how to throw a party.
