VAMFF

LIVE RURAL FASHION SHOW

This event links fashion, food, people and country Australia together to create a luxurious experience for all those who attend. We are bringing Country Australian to the big smoke, exhibiting fashions that are created from locally owned and grown produce. Live Rural is an event run by Leila Sweeney, who works in conjunction with the charitable organisation ‘Live Rural’. The aim of this event is to raise funds for those facing hardship on the land. All funds raised will go towards assisting with getting much needed supplies to farmers in need of support.
