Move over Victoria’s Secret, take a hike John Galliano and get lost Akira, the RMIT students are here with an electric new wave of designer pieces. A celebration of wearable works inspired by light, The Light Fantastic showcases textiles, dance, music and media from over 60 bold and brazen students.

This one-off, one-hour catwalk-show may not boast Elle McPherson or Claudia Schiffer, but it does feature 100% reflective underpants, aglow in the dark cat suit, city-lit kimono, plus garments gleaned with LED light, latex and tulle.

Following last year’s successful' Plastic Intelligence' parade, The Light Fantastic encompasses a constellation of gleaming works that will shine all the way to the penut gallery.
