Day 2 Highlights of NZ Fashion Week 2018

Here are a few of my Day 2 Highlights of New Zealand Fashion Week 2018, held at Viaduct Events Centre Auckland from 27th to 31st August. You can follow on my Instagram at @threadnz.

Day 2 NZFW Tuesday 28th August 2018 

After a big night last night and then loading posts until late when I got home, I fell asleep this morning fully dressed and almost missed twenty-seven names but got there in the nick of time. I’m so glad I did. It was fabulous.

The show opened with Auckland Girls Grammar Choir singing Rihanna’s Shine Bright Like A Diamond to piano accompaniment to the crowd’s delight. Then the dance music started and models walked out wearing Twenty-Seven Names’ AW19 collection, A Cat May Look At A Queen.
