Fashion Flash Mob!

 •  • 

You’ve probably heard of Rachel Burke’s ambitious fashion project, I Make You Wear It. Well, she’s about to reach the halfway point and she hasn’t run out of creative inspiration yet. What do you do with a stockpile of over 150 dresses just waiting to be pirouetted? A fashion flash mob of course! Tomorrow (October 7th) at 12.30pm, Brisbanites can see a whirlwind of Rachel’s handmade beauties in the flesh when they go on parade in the Queen Street Mall – pop-up catwalk style. As usual, all proceeds from the event will go to the Starlight Children’s Foundation. If you like what you see, you can make a donation or purchase a garment on her website.
