Gold Coast Fashion Project Presents Gold Coast Fashion Week

Since their inception, fashion weeks have been among the industry’s most highly regarded and anticipated events for international fashion enthusiasts. The week-long event is a partnership and collaboration in which fashion houses, brands, models, hair & make-up stylists, and fashion event leads showcase their latest collections and talents on the runway to buyers and the media. The most prominent fashion weeks known internationally include the ‘big four’:

Paris Fashion Week,
Milan Fashion Week,
London Fashion Week, and
New York Fashion Week

In Australia, the entire country comes together for Australian Fashion Week, an annual fashion industry event featuring seasonal collections from both Australian and Asia-Pacific designers. This event is intended for retail buyers to purchase forthcoming collections directly from designers and manufacturers, further supporting and showcasing smaller, more independent brands.

In addition to the nationwide event, individual cities have begun creating their own events to further support and promote local designers and industry professionals, including Melbourne Fashion Week and Brisbane Fashion Month.

Thankfully, due to the work done by the Gold Coast Fashion Project, the Queensland tourist destination city of Gold Coast will now have its own Fashion Week to promote, support, and celebrate the incredible talent of its local industry professionals.

Pear Collections is proud to officially announce that we will be showing at this year’s Gold Coast Fashion Week, showcasing our Capsule Collection, which is specifically designed and created for Pear Shaped and Curvaceous Women by a fellow Petite Pear Shaped Woman, Angie Martin.

The brand couldn’t be more thrilled to be able to officially welcome Pear Collections and its community to the world of fashion during this event, which will showcase some of the incredible talents our local Gold Coast has to offer. More importantly, we are thrilled to represent Pear-Shaped and Curvaceous Women at this event to further support our community and champion change within the international fashion community to accurately represent female and male curves.

Gold Coast Fashion Project:

The Gold Coast Fashion Project was created in South East Queensland, where the community enjoys a sub-tropical climate and a fantastic opportunity to explore a unique sense of art and culture. The Gold Coast community is lucky enough to host Home of the Arts (HOTA), which continually brings Hollywood knocking at our door.

Given the city’s incredible culture, climate, and A-List tourism base, the Gold Coast Fashion Project was formed to showcase our incredible local fashion community and bring an inclusive look at our indigenous and diverse cultural influences.

Something wonderful about our local Gold Coast fashion community: it is uniquely coastal, bringing new energy and creativity to traditional Fashion Weeks. Due to this incredible opportunity, the Gold Coast city is proud to host a new generation of local fashion designers, influencers, and community members.

“If you see it on the runway, you can purchase it on the day or head to the online store.” – Gold Coast Fashion Project

It is because of this focus and support of independent and local fashion brands that Pear Collection is over the moon to get involved in this year’s event to showcase and promote the work we’ve been doing for pear-shaped and curvaceous women since we first launched in 2019.
