As moody clouds lingered in the background, this afternoon saw the iconic Sydney Opera House become abuzz as fashionistas hit the scene for the first show on this yearβs Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Australia calendar – Dion Leeβs Resort collection.
Bringing his traditional utilitarian aesthetic to the outside venue, models took to the catwalk in gentle tousled βundoneβ hair by Jon Pulitano for Redken, while Maybelline New York makeup artist Nigel Stanislaus put a focus on strobing using the Maybelline V-Face Contour and Highlight Duo Stick.
For Husskie, obviously all eyes were on those in attendance βΒ with a slew of our favourite influencers out in force for the debut show (see above for a gallery of Day 1 shots). In fact, with Maybelline having itsΒ squad of Sammy Robinson, The Tia Fox, Heidi Makeup Artistβs Heidi Hamoud, Cartia Mallan, and Friend In Fashionβs Jasmin Howell all backstage βΒ we may have overstayed our welcome hanging out the back taking shots of the girlsβ¦ #worthit
For a look at all the street style action from Day 1, take a flick through the above gallery. Weβll be bringing you our pick of the best street style shots throughout MBFWA – so be sure to tune in throughout the weekβ¦
