What they’re wearing on the streets of Melbourne.
PayPal Melbourne Fashion Festival is in full swing as models, influencers, celebrities and editors alike arrive in the Victorian capital for a week that honours Australia’s best design talent. This year, Gritty Pretty is the Official Hair and Beauty Media Partnerfor PayPal Melbourne Fashion Festival and we’ll be on the ground covering the big beauty trends from the shows.
But it’s not all about what happens on the runway—the biggest trends come from the streets. What the fashion set wears to the shows provides endless hair, makeup and nail trend inspiration, so get ready to be inspired by all the beauty street style looks from the days ahead.
Make A Statement
The fashion set leaned into the drama with hair clips, earrings and bows aplenty.
On Day 1 and 2 of PayPal Melbourne Fashion Festival, show-goers were all about the head-turning accessory. While some opted for a barrette, others wore a simple silver clasp to pin back the fringe. Statement earrings were another big trend seen across the week, worn pared-back with low-key beauty moment
Fresh Faces
Attendees stripped it right back and embraced their natural beauty at the shows.
At the other end of the spectrum was the fresh-faced, undone beauty look. From a barely-there glowing complexion to the just-washed tousled hair, for some Melbournites the week was all about keeping it simple.
Do The Twist
From plaits to tucks and twists, the front row got creative with how they styled their tresses.
The classic plait was a trend we spotted throughout the week—a clever way to workaround Melbourne’s unpredictable weather. Whether styled high on the back of the head and secured with a simple hair elastic, or twisted back into a messy bun, this is one style trick we’ll be stealing come Fashion Week here in Sydney.
