MBFWA 2016 is almost upon us, and while the good people of Carriageworks dust off the red carpet, and sequins, flowers and diamonds sell out across Sydney, a team of talented heroes gathers in the background. This year, in partnership with Mercedes-Benz, we’ll be sending five little legends along to fashion week to bring you their most treasured moments and most precious memories from each day.

MBFWA Diaries: All The Glitter As Shot By James J Robinson

Oyster’s mate and handy camera man James J Robinson went deep into MBFWA this week to capture all the frenzy/fun times both #BTS and at of some our fave designer’s shows. Evidence would suggest that things over at Tome, Christopher Esber, Romance Was Born and Emma Mulholland took it to a way more glittery place than a Mariah Carey concert, which is def saying something.

Fash week might be over for the year, but the fond memories will live on in our hearts and the above gallery forever. Check it out!

Good guy James Robinson documented the week through the eyes of our new pals, Gwen Lu, Lily Nova, Mary Akech and Raenee Sydney, so that you might have the pleasure of meeting them too. Get to know the gang below <3.
