MSFW 2011 Soars High with Aviary

08/09/11

Melbourne Spring Fashion Week 2011 began in full flight as Aviary dancers graced the stage with Sophie Van Den Akker, the face of MSFW, in an exquisite display of feathers, form and movement.

Themed as 'Gala', it was an evening of glamour, high fashion and show stopping drama.

To a cacophony of birdsong, Van Den Akker strutted the catwalk amid Aviary dancers adorned in Toni Maticevski tutus and millinery by Richard Nylon, commissioned for BalletLab's forthcoming work Aviary.  Aviary is set to premiere in the Melbourne Festival 2011 from 19th October until 23rd October.
