Kate Hall’s been at NZ Fashion Week this week and attended around twenty shows. She decided to share her perspective and thoughts as a sustainable fashion enthusiast:
+ Kiri Nathan opened (first Māori designer to open with a solo show - incredible representation & move for NZ Fashion).
+ I’m reminded of the over consumption of fashion: attendees arriving in new outfits (some wearing multiple new outfits a day), outfit after outfit coming down the runway - new seasons.
+ Excited to see The Graduate show include a lot of repurposed materials and styles.
+ Slow conscious collection of 3 sustainable designers - though far less attendance at this one!
+ Diversity of models - not as progressive as I expected it would be in 2023.
+ Feels incredibly strange to have a fashion week that doesn't mention the makers as predominantly - only a few shows actually had storytelling & meaning in their shows.
