queer by design ‘26
thank you to everyone for showing up for this event. it was a huge labour of love and the entire team worked tirelessly to put this on.
to run a show like this and have some of the most incredible queer talent - designers, models, hair & makeup artists, photographers, performers, dressers, crew, and bar staff - and for it to sell out a second time is such a privilege.
on top of co-organising this event, being able to soundtrack an all-queer runway with only local queer musicians feels like i’m doing my job as a dj in the most important and authentic way to me.
i’m very grateful to the team at @revivalrunwayfashion and to my @queerconnectnaarm partner @nathan.vannn for the time we all put in to this passion project.
also thank you to @mx_drummer for the beautiful pieces I was lucky enough to wear last night <3
next years runway is going to be even more fierce!
