Fashion bibles, Fashion Quarterly magazine and CLEO magazine will bring their glossy editorials to life on the NZ Fashion Week runway, featuring in-season and on trend looks from the top designer labels such as RUBY, Juliette Hogan, TK Store, Zambesi and more.

Not just for the girls, there’s something special for the boys as well, with Kronenbourg 1664 Presenting the Metro Men’s Show.
