Revival Runway supports, promotes and celebrates Melbourne’s Queer Talent. It was quite y accident that I ended up at Abbotsford Convent, thanks to my friends Tim Neal and Nathan James (both photographers). I met them while photographing street style at Melbourne Fashion Week and decided to hang out at “one more show”!

I was not expecting to have so much fun photographing this runway show. It was more of a celebration! The support from the audience was palpable with hooting and cheering. The garments were full of colour and personality. All models, make-up artists and photographers were volunteers. I almost got thrown out of the venue before it started because a firebrand blue-haired lady walked up to me and quite assertively asked me, “And who exactly are you?” Thankfully Tim jumped to my rescue, and I stayed!

Glad I did because this was an absolute delight. Scroll away!

I don’t quite know everyone on the fashion scene in Australia yet but, the fashion designers who showcased at Revival Runway are Isadora Nim, Wilson Jedd Adams, Milky Plug Kid, Queery This, Design by Jade, Baaqiy, Chelsea Farquhar and Foot, and the performance was by Amber Scates.

And the last photograph is of Gabe, who was one of the guests at the show and after having seen Gabe at several other shows at MFW, I was besmirched by the personal style.

Revival Runway can also be found on Instagram. Follow them to find out about their next event and how you can support and donate.
