There’s only hours to go until Canberra’s biggest fashion event kicks off. Tonight, Wednesday, is Opening Night…and the theme is THE ACTIVIST

“The Activist is the rebel who encourages others to change the world. The activist is a mischief maker who incites open revolution. Authority is powerless in the face of the people so fashion becomes a beacon for insurrection.”

Tonight’s music lineup kicks off with a powerful solo performance by Jack Biilmann, a tailored set by DJ Zachary Norman with MC Rob Van Aalst adding a heartfelt lyrical flow. From organic to electronic … the contrast will cause your eyes and ears to open wide.
