Accordingly, he schedule for the London Fashion Week, which will run between September 18 and 22, has been revealed. Inside Fashion Week - MaraJoara SwimwearMaraJoara may have caused quite a storm in the media over their use of 'everyday' women as models... but that didn't stop them from putting on a grand performance at Australian Fashion Week yesterday. Rather than play it safe and take Australian Fashion Week out with a fizzle, MaraJoara decided to throw caution to the wind in favour of a show that was bold, bright and entertaining; ending the week with a bang. The colour palette was formed by a wide array of bold shades and funky prints; with one-piece swimsuits in interesting cuts taking just as much of the spotlight as the classic bikini. The outfits were accentuated by bright beads and tribal-esque jewellery for both guys and girls. MaraJoara and their everyday modelsThere's a storm in a tea cup currently underway in Melbourne - swimwear house, and resident fashionisers, MaraJoara are the talk of the day after Australian Fashion Week organisers reputedly threatened to cancel their show as a result of them using size 8 to 12 models. As non-conformist as the organisers might have viewed it, the show went ahead as planned and the models (with a few Rogues amongst them), irrespective of their size, all personified beauty. Inside Fashion Week - Belinda FairbanksBelinda Fairbanks presented her Winter 2007 collection at Australian Fashion Week on Monday. The collection was set off by cosy black woolen tights and chunky t-bars, and brought dresses into the winter spirit by layering them over roll-neck knits. For colour, there were some funky 70s inspired patterns and checkered shirt-dresses.
