A budding fashion writer wins front row seats at L’Oréal fashion event

travelling together, and the last
BY TALIA K AUR
A“money can’t buy” VIP trip for two to Melbourne for the L’Oréal Melbourne Fashion Festival (LMFF) sounded like the perfect way to spend a weekend. So when I heard about Sydney Westfield holding a competition to win this exact prize, I just knew I had to enter. Not in a million years did I think I would ever win such an amazing trip, but it didn’t hurt to enter in a few details and explain what I loved most about LMFF.
A week passed by and I had completely forgotten all about the competition. That was until I received a phone call from Sydney Westfield congratulating me on being chosen for the VIP trip for two to LMFF. I was completely shocked, and didn’t know whether it was real or not. I had never won anything before this from entering competitions, let alone a prize of this scale. I was over the moon. As someone who has such a strong interest in fashion, LMFF is definitely one fashion festival I had always wanted to attend. And to top it all off, I received the news on my birthday.
For any of you who might be unfamiliar with LMFF, it’s one of Australia’s largest and most popular fashion events of the year. It runs for a week and has everything from runways showcasing the latest Australian designers, to workshops and seminars on beauty, fashion and even tips for helping you build your own fashion business.

The prize included a trip for two to Melbourne on Qantas airlines, a nights accommodation at Crown Promenade (such a gorgeous hotel), car transfers for the entire weekend, as well as two front row VIP tickets to the Red Carpet Runway show presented by Harper’s Bazaar (where we even had our own private bar). I took my mum with me because we always have great fun when it. I’m truly grateful for having won this trip and being able to take my mum for a weekend away. A huge thank you to
The bridal runway was such an amazing show to watch. The designs were so delicate, beautiful and unique
