We are still coming down from the inspiration high that was 2012 Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Australia. Monday through to Friday we were on deck at the Overseas Passenger Terminal reviewing the shows, getting our street style stalker on, and interviewing industry superstars (Taylor! Yasmin! Elin!), but this week we've moved on the analysis. It's almost more fun to round up the most important, most influential and most need-to-know gems from MBFWA. To kick the review process off, we've collated (after much deliberation) on our top five looks from our absolute favourite five runway shows of the week. From Christopher Esber's considered and conceptual approach to Zimmermann's floral delights, from Michael Lo Sordo's cool take on tailoring to Manning Cartell's wear-me-now-please print and texture combos, and last but not least Ellery's cool play with transparency, proportion and drape — these are FabSugar's top five.
