Dress Collective x VAMFF
The Dress Collective Runway is an official event of the 2016 Virgin Australia Melbourne Fashion Festival Offsite Runway Series.
On February 13, 2016, The Dress Collective merged the digital world with the tangible, presenting an interactive runway to raise funds for the Black Dog Institute, a not-for-profit organisation and world leader in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mood disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder.
The Dress Collective is the only e-boutique that sells 100% Australian made fashion and accessories. Featuring 100% Australian made and independent fashion, The Dress Collective Runway presented their exclusive range of emerging and established designers, and here are just some of my faves and some trendy street style looks captured outside the show.

How Your Mind Sees Art #Thoughtograph

Mine looked like a butterfly…
MBFWA2015 AJE AW15 COLLECTION
Aje’s lastest collection showcased a range of luxurious fabrics and embellishment, typography prints and intricately beaded gowns against a beautifully candlelit backdrop at MBFWA2015. It was all about timeless style, and a contrast between a mix of edge and feminine.
My favourite picks from the runway were definitely the beaded top worn over denim flares, beaded flares and the typography printed dress!
Here is the entire collection for you to swoon over as shot by me …

As I was outside snapping street style pre Aje show, I caught a glimpse of Edwina Robinson (the founder, designer and other half of Aje) running outside with all smiles before the show commenced. She definitely looked happy and calm!
