Wyndham City is delighted to be participating in the PayPal Melbourne Fashion Festival's Independent Programme 2025.
Twenty creatives, with a connection to Wyndham have designed wearable fashion, showcasing their spectacular designs at the Immigration Museum in Melbourne on 1 March 2025.
The wearable art program provides the opportunity to develop design ideas and builds skills in making, promoting, and harnessing the stories woven into fabric and expressed through the universal language of fashion at the Tapestry of Culture Showcase.
This captivating event celebrates the conclusion of a 15-week program where talented creatives have come together to craft wearable art pieces that reflect the beauty, heritage, and narratives of diverse cultures.
Wyndham City Mayor, Cr Mia Shaw, said: "The fashion showcase highlights the vibrant and dynamic works of artists who have explored the significance of clothing beyond mere aesthetics."
"Each unique design and bespoke pieces tell a story, blending traditional techniques with contemporary fashion practices to embody the spirit of cultural appreciation and diversity."
"The result is an eclectic collection of wearable art that challenges norms, celebrates identity, and invites audiences to see fashion as a tapestry of stories, histories, and emotions."
Join us for an immersive experience that honours cultural heritage and artistic expression, where every garment is a statement piece, a conversation starter, and a work of art.
Be part of this unique celebration of creativity and diversity, and witness first-hand how fashion can unite us all.
