THEWHITEBOOK FASHION EXHIBITION
WHERE
GAFFA GALLERY, L1, RANDLE ST, SURRY HILLS
WHEN
OPENS THURS APR 24, 12PM-6PM
RUNS UNTIL MAY 6
HOW MUCH
FREE
Promoting emerging fashion designers and helping established ones keep up appearances must be hard work. But locally run 'thewhitebook' isn't even breaking a fashionable sweat as they move onto bigger and better things - their first exhibition. Expect to see newcomers such as Charmaine Baltis, Smena, Mwasi Kitoko, Ghost & Lola and Alexi Freeman show the goods. So while RAFW is raging on the other end of town you can step back from the madness and see the kids that will be down at Circular Quay in years to come. Nice. - KB

TwoThousand is a subcultural guide to Sydney, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Sydney writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence TwoThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
