iD Dunedin Crowns Emerging Designer Winner


What’s most impressive about this collection is that Fairgray was able to establish a balance between dipping into the surrealist tendencies of Dali himself yet has also created a collection which is as aesthetically pleasing to the eye as it is to the mind. Fairgray’s well draped dresses and bodices with oh so hot prism shoulders still make for a very marketable and well integrated collection.



Former Otago polytechnic student Laura Marshall explored the fine line between feminine and masculine with her menswear collection “Men in Men’s Clothing”. Marshall flipped the trend of emulating men’s fashion into womenswear (which we are seeing more and more of) and decided to take inspiration from recent women’s wear collections and Victorian menswear to form her most amazing and intricate collection.
