The Façon Team would like to acknowledge the land on which we are gathered – the land of the Awabakal people. We pay our respects to the Elders past and present.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone involved in bringing this fashion spectacle to life.
Firstly, a big thank you to the City of Newcastle for their Special Business Rate funding, which helped turn our vision into reality, and to the Newcastle BIA for their generous support of the event.
A special shout out to the incredible retailers who showcased the amazing range of secondhand fashion Newcastle has to offer. Thank you to Ellie from Scourced Vintage, Rose from Un Pantalon, and Bronte from Eastend Wardrobe for curating such inspiring looks. Thank you to Jo, Fiona and the volunteers at Got Your Back Sista on Darby St.
Your constant support of Façon and your passion for fashion reflects in your styling and product choices.
Sincere appreciation goes to the dedicated volunteers from Full Circle Collective, led by Bianca. The creativity and imagination poured into every piece have been truly inspiring.
And finally, a massive thank you to the talented Diploma of Apparel, Fashion and Textiles students from TAFE Newcastle. The future of fashion in our city is bright, thanks to these young creatives who built, styled, and delivered stunning designs under the guidance of the amazing Anna and Mel.
