Seven Souls: Bushfire Appeal Parade, Melbourne

Next Friday, the 19th of June, Melbourne-based label Seven Souls are hosting a special event that is worth a peek for several reasons. First and foremost, the event is in support of those who lost homes and loved ones in the devastating bushfires that swept through Victoria earlier this year. And as if that isn't reason enough to grab yourself a ticket, the parade will take place at the unique surrounds of the Pentridge Prison development precinct.

LiveStyle 2009 Fashion & Music Festival, Melbourne

With L'Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival (LMFF) only just over, we thought we'd have a while to wait before we could look forward to another big fashion event in Melbourne. As it turns out, we were wrong - with a major new concept being launched this coming weekend.

Taking place at Central Pier, Docklands from 17-19 April 2009, LiveStyle will marry music and fashion; with runway shows, DJ performances, workshops and plenty more on the schedule. The thing we're most looking forward to though is the 50+ pop-up boutiques which will be selling sale stock and new season collections direct to the public.

Fashion Means the World Runway Photos

Last night Tania & I made our way to Fashion Means the World, hosted by the fantastic Claire and Lucinda. Thankfully Wayne was on hand to take shots of the parade (featuring Joolz, Eco Girl, MüCKE, Chic Aktivist and Moneypenny) and the great looking crowd. His shots now available in the Fashion Diary.

Midnight Fashion returns to Melbourne

Last year, Midnight Fashion launched it's first Melbourne event - and the response was so huge people were left queuing in the street to get in. So when the second event in the Midnight Fashion series hits town on Friday March 28th, it promises a bigger venue, better runway, improved door policy, and even more entertainment.

The event will showcase 10 of Melbourne's upcoming designer talents at The Royal Melbourne Hotel on Bourke Street. It's a great excuse to frock up (or suit up), have a few drinks, mingle with other fashion-lovers, and check out some new designs.
