Chatswood Chase Spring/Summer 2017 Runway Reveal



Fashionistas flocked hither and thither on Thursday 21 September to see the new season fashions at the SS17 VIP runway event at Chatswood Chase . The special event was hosted by internationally acclaimed fashion designer and TV presenter, Claudia Chan Shaw. Claudia is a co-designer and director of her own Australian fashion label, Vivian Chan Shaw , with designs represented in the permanent collection of Sydney's Powerhouse Museum. Claudia is also well known for her role as co-host and presenter on ABC TV's popular program, Collectors and her subsequent book, Collectomania: From Objects of Desire to Magnificent Obsession.



The VIP lounge couldn't be missed with three stunning two-metre tall, high-heel shoes decorated in roses announcing fashion spring fun time.



Amongst the guests, I spotted some fashion innovators sipping refreshments, happy to flash winning smiles at the camera.



Claudia was gracious and mixed with the guests melting everyone with her charm and beauty.



Cocktails were courtesy of SesiĆ³n Tequila and Wines from 6Ft6 Wine were flowing freely.





Tasty tidbits zoomed through the throng of hungry guests as anticipation surged for the Spring Summer fashion reveal.



Delicious mini sliders hit the spot.



Smoked salmon sandwiches and tasty tofu rice paper rolls kept the crowd happy as guests mingled and rubbed shoulders with fellow fashion devotees.





Claudia Chan Shaw was a sparkling magnet for the bold and beautiful and the most glamorous hostess.



At last, it was time for the runway reveal showcasing Chatswood Chase's leading brands and retailers. Claudia Chan Shaw announced a list of brands we were about to see, Camilla, Karen Millen, Sandro, Maje, Sass & Bide, Country Road, Calibre, David Jones, RM Williams, Carla Zampati, Sportscraft, Declic, Alannah Hill, Basler, Gerry Weber, Brooks Brothers, Gorman,Trenery, Sambags, Aqua Selection, Kookai, Rodeo Show and more.



The fashions pranced onto the stage and were bold, colourful, and bursting with eye-catching prints. These outfits blew away all the winter chills with a blaze of colours that reminded me of the 80's.



Colour dazzled down the runway. Pink is big with some shocking bright hues that dazzled and enticed as the new season stopper.





Carla Zampati never ceases to impress and embraces colour with panache.



I loved the mix and match approach and teaming with soft floral prints.





You can wear what you like, almost anything goes, pale pastels or bright. If this isn't for you, then kick aside this frivolity with some statement blocks of colour offering that smart edge you might prefer with the latest eye-catching outfits that announce your arrival. The prints are graphic, bold and bright.



You can also find soft graphics that enchant if you have a figure you can flaunt.



Bright red and blue styles are out in force in plains and patterns.





Give casual the edge and [LINK=http://bouncesydney.com/]Bounc[e/LINK] into Spring with a stunning linen/silk Shangri-la style Utopia jacket.



It's okay to relax and float your feminine goddess with flouncy Camilla and try out the new season brights.



Or, if you prefer, a minimalistic approach then stick to the basics.









Nautical is still a favourite. Black and white checks make a statement with the orange/red that can't be ignored.





If red and pink aren't your thing, then splash some Kermit green on or sunshine yellow in the mix. Its big classy blocks of eye-grabbing colour and vibrant big florals.







It's not all about how bravely you dare to glare in brights. If your tribe believes in less is more, then stand tall in stunning simplicity from Trenery.





Or show off your figure in captivating Kookai.




The men haven't been left out. Sophisticated and playful, definitely not too serious.







Accessories are also bright and colourful but there's also plenty of silver and bronze.



The sun is out day and night with the latest Spring/Summer looks and all can be found in Chatswood Chase online or in store.
