Viva's NZ Fashion Week highlights: Day two

Zambesi opened NZ Fashion Week 2017 with a bang last night. The label's Mercedes-Benz Presents show was a sci-fi kaleidoscope of quilted florals, shiny PVC and silver. A buzzing crowd of local media and international attendees filled the Viaduct Events Centre - see who was sitting front row at the show and all of the backstage action.

Rachel Mills kicks off day two with an installation instead of a runway show. We spoke to the young designer about how she was feeling in the lead-up to Fashion Week.
