Perth Fashion Festival 2010: Restyle

As it was the week of the Perth Fashion Festival when we arrived in the capital of Western Australia, we attended several events including Restyle.

Restyle, a catwalk cum workshop, features clothes sourced from various op shops (short for opportunity shops), also known to some people as charity shops, in Perth. They were combined together stylishly and put on real models, and honestly, did not look like rejects at all! In fact, we learnt that great bargains and sometimes, even that rare designer or vintage item, can be found in op shops. The trick is to develop a keen eye and lots of patience.
