The Melbourne International Millinery Competition returns to Labassa with a display of millinery from leading milliners across Australia and overseas. This year’s theme is ‘Mother of the Bride’ and Bridegroom, of course. Entrants were asked to design and create a hat for the ‘Mother’ wearing one of three outfits designed by Vivienna Lorikeet. Now in its sixth year, this display promises to be a chic affair and an inspiration to all those planning to celebrate this momentous milestone in style.
