SILVER THREADS AND GOLDEN NEEDLES RUNWAY

Oratory, The Abbotsford Convent
RUNWAY
Amy Lawrance invites you to an intimate fashion presentation at The Abbotsford Convent’s Oratory. A collection of dresses that have been designed, pattern made and sewn by Amy in Naarm will be showcased in a thoughtful, slow-paced fashion show. Attendees will be invited to pore over the translucent silks, silver threads and sculptural forms of these dresses as a cast of models slowly meander the light-filled space of the Oratory along to a soundtrack composed by musician and artist Rainbow Chan. This event will seek to illuminate the value of slow hand-craft and the potential for centuries-old dress-making techniques to guide a contemporary fashion label.
Direction/choreography: Adam Kassar Soundtrack: Rainbow Chan
