Fashion: ShadowPlay

September 2011 will see Perth Fashion Festival’s Fashion Paramount shine bright inside its new home, Hackett Hall.

Award winning luxury brand ae’lkemi and structurally bold womenswear label S2 will illuminate individual style in their own highly anticipated standalone shows. Elsewhere, emerging menswear brand Zsadar featuring Alister Yiap accessories and dynamic jewellery range Totomoto Australia will represent the new guard as part of designer capsule collections.

Here, OUTinPerth captures all these labels together inside the contrasting architectural heart of the Western Australian Museum.
