With a surging interest in the Territory after the recent Investment Summit and a renewed focus on developing new industries, the relaunch of Darwin Fashion Week is right on time.
Curated by Fiona Le and Phuong Le, Darwin Fashion Week is a unique celebration of style and creativity, featuring runway shows, exhibitions, fashion parades, and interactive workshops.
The announcement of the event at Ruby Restaurant at Paspalis Centrepoint in Darwin was met with great enthusiasm by the attendees at the monthly Coffee with Chamber event attended by Darwin Innovation Hub’s Dante St James and Paspalis Capital’s Alex Farrugia.
Darwin Fashion Week comes after a lead-in event was trialled at Darwin Innovation Hub by Phuong Le showcasing her designs. Phuong is also a part of the team at Ruby Restaurant, a long-time commercial tenant of Paspalis Centrepoint.
“Darwin Innovation Hub was proud to partner with Phuong for her innovative fashion show that served as a lead-in for Darwin Fashion Week and we continue to watch closely as the Territory’s fashion community begins its long-awaited resurgence.”
Dante St James, Start NT Manager, Darwin Innovation Hub.
Paspalis Capital, Darwin Innovation Hub’s sister venture capital firm, is invested in a number of innovative Territory companies, including Liandra Swim, a Darwin-based swim and active fashion label headed by Liandra Gaykamangu.
