It's a festival of fashion in Sydney this week, with Australian designers showcasing their summer collections soon to hit stores, for none other than the Australian public! Shows are both free and ticketed; with tickets made available to the general public through Ticketek. It wasn't just an Australian affair however; with Italian label Missoni contributing to opening night's Diet Coca Cola Little Black Dress show, along with Australian King of Fashion- Alex Perry.

Other designers that have showed so far include Project Runway Australia's judge Jayson Brunsdon, whose Audrey Hepburn inspired collection was a melting pot of pleated pastels and starched metallics. Gary Bigeni's collection was slightly reminiscent of John Galliano for Dior's AW 08/09 haute couture collection, with a strong emphasis on sheers. Another highlight was newcomer Dion Lee's architecturally tailored Rosemount O dress, inspired by the "O" in the sponsor's name, and the beautiful location of the festival.
