Vivid Live

The final episode for season 8 is the live broadcast of Fashion\\u2019s Flash: Back to the Future which took place as part of the Vivid Sydney festival on June the 7th at the UTS Great Hall. In keeping with the spirit of Vivid, I hosted a panel conversation with the type of game changers and tastemakers that have peppered past Style Stories seasons and continue to inspire ingenuity and imagination, namely Nina Fitzgerald, Zoltan Csaki and Maggie Zhou. Together we respectfully dissected the future of fashion examining everything from connection to Country to what we will wear in the meta verse paying heed to the past by recognising our lessons gained and the lessons to be learnt. In a bid to discuss the meaningful movements shaping the future of the Australian fashion industry including First Nations representation, sustainability and slow fashion practices, and the role technology can play to move best practices forward, I hope this episode helps you seek change, sparks a new idea or just inspires you to shine.
\\nI hope from this episode you get a sense of the emotion, the joy and the inspiration this special evening held, not only for me but for all the stylish people in the room. The lead up was certainly a Vivid ride bought together with the help of all the forward-thinking talent that made this event come to light, and who were the heart and soul of this Vivid Idea. If you weren\\u2019t able to make it and want to get a little more slice of the action please go to Instagram or YouTube to watch some clips and reels that help capture the light and spark of the evening. And if you\\u2019re seeking a little more light and little more spark when it comes to meaningful fashion, listen out for season 9 where I interview some of the creative talent who are consciously shaping the Australian fashion landscape through a climate of change and of course their inspiring Style Stories.
