Spotlight on Millinery Australia’s Melbourne Fashion Week exhibitor, Georgia Skelton.

Georgia’s passion for millinery is an extension of her theatrical background with the Australian Ballet Company and her career as a designer and teacher at several leading fashion institutes in Melbourne. Her work is often infused with a sense of drama and incorporates advanced techniques from different creative disciplines.

Her ’Boldly Different’ exhibit ‘Empress’ is inspired by late 19th century Korea and pays homage to the artisans who created the traditional ‘gat’ hat that represented social status.

Visit the exhibition at No Vacancy Gallery, QV Melbourne from Tuesday 16 - Sunday 21 November 2021.
