The fashion industry gathered earlier this week to celebrate iconic designer Collette Dinnigan as the recipient of the prestigious fifth annual Australian Fashion Laureate.
The award, a joint initiative between the NSW government and IMG Fashion Asia Pacific, was presented yesterday by The Weekend Australian Magazine at the Mercedes-Benz Star Lounge, at the Overseas Passenger Terminal in Circular Quay.
Dinnigan, who began her eponymous label in 1990 with the launch of dryclean only lingerie, now operates three distinct brands – Collette Dinnigan mainline, Collette by Collette Dinnigan lingerie and Collette by Collette Dinnigan diffusion.
