For fashion fans, May brings about one of the most anticipated events of the sartorial calendar: Afterpay Australian Fashion Week.
All eyes are on the runways of the country’s best up-and-coming designers as well as some of our most prolific brands. When we’re not glued to the catwalks, we’re captivated by the stunning street style looks as industry insiders, from designers to models and influencers, don their best outfits.
Unsurprisingly, the calibre of style at Sydney’s Carriageworks during AAFW is unlike any other fashion event, so what does one wear when brushing shoulders with such a crowd?
Take a peak into the Australian Fashion Week wardrobes of the marie claire Australia team to find out (and even shop) for yourself.
