As part of Melbourne Spring Fashion Week, a selection of  final year Fashion students are exhibiting their work at No Vacancy  Gallery. These students are yet to finish their degree (they are 3, 3/4 years through) so this exhibition focuses on their final year design research and development. I found the work fascinating, beautiful and rigorously considered. I'm looking forward to seeing more from these emerging designers and will keep my ears pricked for the graduate exhibition.
Below are a few of my favourites from the exhibition. There were more that I found interesting but they weren't so easy to photograph. Luckily, although Fashion week is over, you can still catch the exhibition until September 18th.

| "Precious Threads by Anisha Bhoryu. Anisha has made a series of garments using the idea of pulling threads in the fabric to produce texture and inform the garment construction. Beautifully executed, she won this year's RMIT student prize. I wanted to take this dress home! |

| "Textilis"  by Alana Hersh. Alana has manipulated a grid of woven fabric strips  using knotting, weaving, pleating and crochet to envelope the human  form. |

| "Whereing" by Hannah Chamley. |
