NZ Fashion Week returns: What you need to know about the big comeback

The centrepiece of our fashion industry is back after four long years away.  New Zealand Fashion Week returns with a brand new te reo name; Kahuria, which means to cloak or adorn. The event’s new owners will be hoping to present a refreshed major cultural event after close to half a decade in the darkness.  So, what looks will be on display? How is the garment industry coming to terms with concerns around fast fashion, consumerism, and the cost-of-living crisis? And can the smorgasbord of creativity on show catch the zeitgeist?  Today on The Front Page, we’re joined by Viva managing editor Amanda Linnell and Viva’s fashion and creative director Dan Ahwa to discuss what to expect from an event a long time in the making. Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.
