Arabella Gunning Sunrise Dress

Four of MLC's Year 10 Design students shone at a showcase of wearable art.

The Common Threads Wearable Art Showcase featured creations from around Australia, as well as New Zealand and the United States.

Libby Madden and Sarah Norton were both finalists, while Kiana Mews and Arabella Gunning made it to the grand final of the Gillian Peebles Youth Award.

Their stunning creations included a dress, reminiscent of a butterfly net, skilfully covered with 166 hand-cut paper butterflies, and a sunrise dress, which brought together opposing colours in nature.
