The AFF Finale

If you ever doubted Adelaide, and dare I say at times I do, the finale of the Adelaide Fashion Festival held on Saturday night definitely restored everyone's faith in this little place we call home.

The Designer Showcase topped off a fabulous week of stylish action, the final hurrah to what has been a Boston & Chase milestone - our first AFF. The finale gathered everyone who had been apart of the events that filled the week with many friendly, familiar faces present. 

Everyone was dressed to impress and filed into historic Bonython Hall full of excitement and ready to celebrate. Many mingled at the bar or chatted while perusing the fashion photography that lined the walls - a sneak peek at Jo Grace's Kaleidoscope exhibit. 

The lovely ladies from Australian Fashion Labels arrived and were met by many eyes. Always astounding, the girls proved their superiority once again on the Adelaide fashion scene. Effortless style and designer chic - oh to have their wardrobes! We wish!

Once a few VOK cosmo's had been served and enjoyed, people took their seats and the designers unleashed their work.

Take a look at the offerings from Adelaide's emerging designers. We were blown away.

A special mention goes to Georgia Palmer from Georgia Guy for winning Emerging Designer of the year. Congratulations!

The Designer Showcase, and the entire AFF, really confirmed that Adelaide is a unique and exciting fashion hub, with so many talented individuals. We should be very proud.

This is what Boston & Chase is all about, supporting and showcasing all that is Adelaide.
