Behind the scenes at Zambesi runway

Unfortunately I'm not at New Zealand Fashion Week again this year, in fact I haven't been since 2013! I always intend to go, but it rolls around so quickly and then next minute it's started and I'm not there and I feel envious and remorseful. Next year I'll be there . . . maybe/hopefully!!!

Despite not being at the shows, there's always heaps of media coverage and I get sent loads of images and info. Some of my favourite shots are backstage, particualry the make-up, where you get a glimpse of the glamour before it hits the runway. So although some of us can't be there, we can still get a look-in at amazingness that is NZFW.

Here's M.A.C for Zambesi, lead by key make-up artist, KieKie Stanners
