We are a group of independent fashion industry professionals committed to raising the profile of emerging fashion and increasing international appreciation for Australian design.
The Spirit of the Black Dress is a dynamic, not-for-profit project at the leading edge of Australian design. Our event aims to promote emerging designers and bring attention to the exceptional talent born of the Australian consciousness. With a focus on sustainability, we seek to highlight how our innovators in art and fashion are grappling creatively with the issues of our times in parallel with designing timeless fashion - the black dress.
We annually present a red carpet gala evening, runway show, fashion film screening and public photographic exhibition. Ten winning dress designs are selected by a panel of five industry professionals.
We proudly launched in 2009 as part of Melbourne Spring Fashion Week and since 2010, we have been a key component of the L’Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival Cultural Program.
