The art museum is proud to support local public momentum for a change in domestic violence statistics in our District. The title of this year’s show was created to reflect both the stories of local designers and the stories of violence against women and children in our communities. The Runway show also complements the current exhibition HOME SEWN from the NZ Fashion Museum curated by Doris de Pont ONZM. We are thrilled to have Kim Crawford Wines supporting our event this year.
SOO TRU!...SEW TRUE: The RUNWAY: This year many of the same young Whangarei fashion designers and stylists, who last year made the runway-show such a professional event, will be joined by four local fashion designers from By Design, plus - a new twist with fashion accessories included;-jewellery, fashion hand bags and artist-made scarves hitting the runway.
