The brand new Viaduct Events Centre is host from Monday 29th August to Friday 2nd September. Fashion Weekend will run the evening of Friday 2nd September and all day Saturday 3rd September.
Celine Rita, fresh from her success winning the title as most talented newcomer in the 2010 New Generation Show, makes her solo debut. Celine will be joined by debutants Ingrid Starnes and Taranaki’s Whiri, which has worked its way through the NZFW fashion ranks via the New Generation, Miromoda and Group Show platforms and Christchuch fashion label MisteR. MisteR debuts, following the destruction of their store in February’s earthquake and a busy time putting the finishing touches on their collection from their makeshift workroom, the lounge of their house.
The 2011 New Generation show will provide a platform for five designers to showcase their talents at NZFW for the first time. Auckland Based designers Deryn Schmidt, Egoist and Katie-maree Cole will join Nelson’s Emma Manhart and Wellington’s Two Wonders to walk the New Generation Catwalk, a proven training ground for some of the country’s brightest fashion talents.
Wellington based Starfish will grace the NZFW catwalk twice, showing a full collection and then joining Miranda Brown, Taylor and Untouched World to show the fashion world the best in New Zealand textiles, through the Merino Show.
2011 sees the return of group shows Miromoda and the New Zealand Weddings Magazine Bridal Collection.
The Miromoda initiative was founded in 2008 to advance the status and standards of the M?ori fashion industry and each year supports emerging fashion talent. This year six designers have won their chance to show at NZFW, Adrienne Whitewood, Dmonic Intent, Identi-tee, Shona Tawhiao, Tara Warren and Urban Maori.
The New Zealand Weddings Magazine Bridal Collection returns after a resounding success in 2010 and supports designers offering the best in contemporary design to those planning their big day.
