The Mercedes-Benz Fashion Festival Sydney

 
The Mercedes-Benz Fashion Festival Sydney
(MBFF Sydney) is on again, and Sydney Town Hall will host a week-long extravaganza from 23 - 27 August 2011. This is your chance to go backstage, sit front row and get the new seasons trend report direct from the runway. Join Australia’s leading designers, models and celebrities for Sydney’s hottest fashion event of the year.
Guests will be whisked into the spectacular collection showroom to view the runway action, where Sydney Town Hall will be transformed into a visual spectacle that excites and enthrals. “We want the show to be something that guests remember forever; a truly magical experience that one would see on the major runways around the world,” says Jarrad Clark, Global Production Director of IMG Fashion, and judge on Project Runway Australia.
A big show deserves a big after party, and post-show guests are invited to hang out in the cool vibe of the festival hub, mingle with celebs, get made over and snapped in a delight of interactive installations and one-on-one designer action.
