On June 20, Australian stylist Stevie Dance was American fashion designer Virgil Abloh’s right hand for his Off-White men’s show.

The next day, Australian stylist Christine Centenera worked closely with Abloh on the week’s most-anticipated event: his catwalk debut as Louis Vuitton’s new men’s artistic director.

 

Australian show producer Jarrad Serafine-Clark then helped John Galliano – creative director of Maison Margiela – realise the brand’s vision for its first Artisinal men’s show.
