Out and About at LMFF – Tuesday

As it was the hottest ticket in town, I’d been unsuccessful in securing a media pass to Runway 2 on Tuesday night. Luckily about 10 minutes before the parade started I ran into the lovely Ben Pollitt from Friedrich Gray who very kindly gifted me ticket. Thank you, Ben! At the time I thought that was the most epic thing that was going to happen to me that night but I couldn’t have been more wrong.

After the show Lady Melbourne, Fashion Hayley and I retreated to the Festival Bar where I finally ran into the stunning and talented Selena from Dear Selena, and her two lovely friends Richard and Peter. I also briefly met Emily from Little Black Book but she was unable to stay back with us at the bar.

Myself, Richard, Lady Melbourne, Peter, Selena.

The Woolmark Young Designer Awards took place directly after Runway 2 and as everyone slowly dissipated from the event Hayley and I ran into designer Dion Lee who had just been announced as the winner of the award. We stopped to congratulate him; he was very charming.

At this point everything got pretty chaotic and Hayley and I somehow managed to abscond with a slew of Australian fashion royalty including Gary Bigeni and Gail Sorronda to the Vogue after party, where we enjoyed the company of even more designers such as Romance Was Born, Kym Ellery, Lui Hon, Limedrop and Akira Isawaga. Australian Vogue editor-in-cheif Kirstie Clements was also there, but even if we had have managed to penetrate the circle surrounding her I think we’d have been too dumbfounded to know what to say.

It was probably the most surreal evening of my life and one I’m sure not to forget!

I am so jealous you met Dion Lee, I probably would have cried like a little girl, I am so in love with him.x
