THE INNOVATORS wow the fashion crowds

6 TAFE students believed in and followed their dreams.. And they found themselves on the runway of Australia’s most prestigious annual fashion event!

The small group of emerging designers (Hayley Dawson, Kiaya Daniels, Bei Na Wei, Julia Logvin, Ciara Nolan and Yousef Akbar) graduated from the Fashion Design Studio at Sydney Tafe. The leading fashion design institute’s alumni list speaks for itself.. iconic names such as Akira Isogawa, Alex Perry, Nicky Zimmermann, Lisa Ho, Ginger & Smart designer Genevieve Smart, Dion Lee, Romance Was Born designers Luke Sales and Anna Plunkett, Karla Spetic and Dylan Cooper have all began their amazing journey here.

Australia has a proven ability to produce and support world-class fashion designers with Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week providing an excellent opportunity to catch they eye of industry insiders from around the world. Buyers, retailers, celebrities and members of the regional, national and international press are all hunting for the best looks enabling the fresh talent to gain recognition, expand their brand and step on the global stage.

Congratulations!!!  I hope you’ll love my photos as much as I enjoyed taking them.

Keep on following your dreams, believe in yourself and never give up:)
