Breast Cancer Cure general manager Phillipa Green said the brewery was ‘‘absolutely transformed’’ for the iD Fashion event.

Preliminary counts suggested the event made  $75,000-$80,000, which would be used to fund studies  on finding a cure for breast cancer.

"The auction went better than expected. We’ve heard from people attending that we had the right people in the room."

The show also travelled to other New Zealand cities and organisers hoped to return next year, she said.

Thirteen designers were featured in the show, including Trelise Cooper, Somekind, Kathryn Wilson and Twenty-Seven Names.
