Citrus Threads brings a runway to Memorial Park after dark.
Four makers show collections created in response to the Riverina citrus industry, three travelling designers alongside Griffith-based designer Nehma Vitols, with jewellery from a collaborating maker. The full line-up will be announced in the lead-up to the show.
Composer Ben Ceccato returns with an original score, written for the show and performed live.
Last November, Nehma Vitols staged a runway that ran through a working winery in the Riverina, built from the stories of the women who make the wine. It sold out, and went on to be named a finalist at the Ragtrader Australian Fashion Industry Awards.
The citrus industry has shaped this region for over a century; the families who planted it, the seasons that govern it, the work that sustains it. Citrus Threads takes that as its material, and the result is Citrus Threads.
Before the show: an Italian aperitivo at Zecca Handmade Italian, booked separately.
After the show: The stories and selected works will go on display in the free Citrus Threads exhibition at Harvest HQ, opening Sunday 18 October at 2pm and running until closing night on Friday 23 October. Free entry, booking recommended. Pay as you go refreshments.
