For the Student Collections Runway, a standout ensemble included a printed T-shirt dress by designer Rose Murdoch, paired with knee-high boots and an artsy silver bag crafted from beer can pull-tabs. Talk about upcycling!

When Wednesday rolled around, the Volvo Electric Runway saw a denim shift dress with hardware neck details steal the spotlight. Complete with $10 op shop silver slingbacks and a gorgeous organza bag, this look went from borrowed to bought on the spot!

Fashion X Underground Runway was all about that sleek all-black ensemble paired with eye-catching silver accessories. From a cuff bangle to hidden zips revealing black lace flare on tailored pants, this look was a total showstopper!

On another note, vintage reigns supreme! A secondhand Zara top teamed with a retro denim skirt, a collection of ties, and Radical Yes boots gave a thrifted twist to a classic look.

Style struggles? No problem. Even when wardrobes are a bit tight, E Nolan pants and Essen Foundation flats offered a sturdy base for multiple fabulous outfits. Throw in an MGSM party dress or a Harris Tapper shift and suddenly you're runway-ready.

Now, who doesn’t love a pop of color? Thursday’s comfort-focused double denim ensemble got a splash of red with some suede loafers, adding a vibrant touch to a laid-back look.

For the ganbu marra opening night, a rip was turned into a fashion statement! From secondhand Fendi bags to vintage scores, re-imagining pieces becomes an art form.

And don’t miss butter yellow moments or fashion collabs like the House of Campbell pieces that took breaths away. Mixing yellow hues with reds via Charles & Keith shoes and quirky accessories, these fashionistas truly made a statement.

Finally, for the Underground Runway, bold styles paired Lovaan bow tops with a Zara suit set and dazzling pops of red.

These style icons proved that fashion is all about re-inventing, re-wearing, and making the old new again, while mixing unexpected colors for that ultimate sartorial surprise. Craving more street style goodness? Head here for all the looks!
