“I find you see the most interesting outfits when you walk to and from the event.”
“We might see someone’s outfit and think it’s basic, but they’re comfortable. Then you can see someone wearing an extravagant dressed up outfit, and they don’t look comfortable.”
“The joy of these events is seeing someone where the fashion is the truest expression of themselves, and they’re glowing in their clothes. Even if they’re dressed as a caricature, it’s their truest self.”

Hat: “It’s an Akubra sombrero. The Bush Tucker Man wears the same one.”
Suit: eBay. “It got shipped all the way from the US. I just had to cut a foot off it and put it on.”
“This is Australia’s premier art fair. It’s a lazy way to see art. I can come here, see everybody and see everything. It’s a bit of a barometer.”
“With my outfit I was thinking about Western cultural appropriation, so I thought I’d dress Western. Do you think I’m being too conceptual?”
“This is a step-up for me. Usually, at home I just walk around in grey. I live in Blackheath, which is where goths go to pasture. I put in some effort, coming to the big smoke.”

Outfit: “The op shop darling! These German hiking boots are from Vinnies.”
“There’s definitely a connection between art and fashion. There’s a lot of art using textiles now.”
“The uniform at events like this can be quite fancy but I try to play with it.”
“I look like I run a car wash.”

Outfit: AKA. Artwear. “Handmade and handpainted all by myself.”
“Sometimes in art everything can be neat and tidy, like it is in art school. I’m more freestyle and organic. I wear art every day but I feel the art industry still has to relax and shrug off the pretentious stuff.”
“There’s still that bit of exclusivity at something like this. If I see someone wearing a big white shirt from Commes des Garcons, I just want to paint it.”
“I don’t have any sizes for my fashion label. It’s to get people to feel free and be a little kinder to themselves and that’s reflected in my art work. There’s always a message.”
“You should have come tomorrow. I’ve made this cocktail dress made of paper from my old Vogue magazines.”
