Spring Summer in Australia isn't complete without Camilla. This year on both of these runways we saw Camilla signature kaftans and swimwear.
In 2016 Steve May brings a little boho to the shift dress and kaftan.
David Jones parade had a youthful sexy look. Wrap dresses, sheer fabrics and cutouts are on trend.
As always J'Aton delivered their usual class and sophistication with lace and embellishing.
Alice McCall never disappoints and in 2016 she delivered on trend embellishments and patterns on black with lace and sheer fabrics.
Bec and Bridge's Collection was filled with gorgeous neutrals and classic cuts.
Aurelio Castarellio was as on trend with the nude look. These neutrals are simple with little pops of embellishing.
Dion Lee again hit the neutrals trend on the button with these looks, with fringing, tassels and sheer fabrics.
Keepsake's designs in blush and whites with sheer and simple cuts are something we all need in our Spring wardrobe.
Thurley's collection was full of bold laces and dramatic heavy embellishing that will be going on your Spring bucket list!
Swimwear for 2016 came in all shapes and sizes from the previous Camilla range to Billabong's great rash vest options. Perfect for covering up in the harsh Aussie sun.
