Newcastle Fashion Week has officially kicked off with a Launch at Newcastle's Greater Union. Normally showing the latest on the silver screen, yesterday it became the first to showcase this year's fabulous line-up for 2010.
With an opening speech from the Lord Mayor Councillor John Tate and some wonderful and heartfelt words from Director and Founder Lousie Mackay, it was onto the show. Featuring designs by Melanie Ritchie, Velet Hummingbird, Sarah Plooy, Plain Jane and many more amazing creations, models strutted their stuff down the aisles which were converted into a runway just for this event.
Mingling with guests were other local and interstate designers Jzhonnie Bechet and Little Sparrow as well as media members from The Herald and Moving Image sipping champagne and browsing the designers stalls on this wonderful sunday afternoon.
Will be back with more during the week with behind-the scenes information, designer's quotes and other news from NFW 2010!!!!!!
