The hot trends

By Kelly Yates
FORMERAFLstar and now singing sensation Russell Robertson opened up last Wednesday’s Westfield Fountain Gate VIP Fashion Night with a toe tapping rendition of Eagle Rock.
Male and female models danced and strutted along the catwalk from 6.30pm in front of more than 6000 guests, showcasing the latest Spring and Summer fashion trends.
Labels such as Portmans, Ice Design, Dotti, Esprit, Roger David and Man to Man were featured in the parade.
Bold colours and graphic prints will be making an appearance this summer, with mini metallic coloured dresses, in silver, pewter and gold, a hot trend.
The classic black and white combination for women, whether it be casual or formal, was another big hit, with accessories such as dark sunglasses, crisp white pearls and bright oversized handbags adding to the final look.
Flower power was blooming as this year’s Spring Racing Carnival looks hit the catwalk. The models complemented the colourful race-wear dresses with oversized hats, fascinators and flowers.
It seems bigger is better when it comes to shoes this summer, with chunky sky high heels in tan, beige and black a must have item.
The highly anticipated swimwear parade was the show stopping finale, with the male and female models strutting down the catwalk in the latest looks for the beach.
Receiving roaring applause from the audience, the female models showed off the bright coloured barely-there bikinis, while the men paraded the latest looks in board shorts.
