It seems the Boho girl was made Melbourne chic in the VAMFF's Premium Runway 5, with a hint of 70's flare somewhere between the black on black ensembles.
Before the show started, my mum whispered to me the phrase "I will stop wearing black when they invent something darker..." which seemed to describe the night perfectly. As I listened to her my eye quickly gazed over everyone sitting on the opposite side of the runway, all of whom were wearing black.
It is true what they say, Melbournian's love black and it seemed that the global trend of 70's chic, hugely adopted by Gucci (among other fashion houses), had been altered for us.

It appeared consumers were first in mind with some of the collections, leaving very little room for risk and creativity, causing the designs to be disappointingly predictable. A repeated use of silhouette and very minimal thought put into textile design left a stale air of the boring and overdone.
In saying that there were a few highlights, especially Christopher Esber's leather detailing and use of texture.
