Earlier today myself and a friend, Elita attended Fashion Weekend an event arranged by the popular fashion magazine Shop till you drop at the Royal Hall of Industries.
Tickets were $20...these were bought a few weeks earlier so the excitement of attending had gradually peaked and we were both really excited to go!
The main attraction that caught our eyes was the fact that 70 of Australia's top fashion designers collections would be on sale at reduced prices! My friend and I were extremely ecstatic, both being obsessed with fashion especially if its going at reduced prices!
On the actual day...
1. Since the advertisement for the event stated 'designers collections' it made us and others to believe that it would be the designers current collections especially seeing it had just been RAFW in Sydney - although this wasn't the case!
2. As we began looking at the stands of each designer we noticed that this was definitely not the current seasons collections, some of the clothes which I had seen before were from last years winter stock!
What person who is obsessed with fashion is going to buy clothes that were a year old?
Some of which were shockingly still pricey!
3. The only new season clothes that were seen that day were only probably on the people attending!
4. My friend and I were highly disappointed and still are! we had bought tickets for this event and were sooo excited to we would get some great cheap finds - we ended up going away with NOTHING!
.....This just proves everyone is just out for money...even if it is at the price of sacrificing the fashion standards of Australians!
