Join us for a stylish celebration as we close NZFW’s Christchurch Spring Fashion Festival and get ready for Cup and Show Week!

Be part of the very first event at The Pavilion, Riccarton Park’s brand new premium venue, with a long lunch bringing together the best of fashion, food and wine. Enjoy a menu created by Riccarton Park’s chefs in collaboration with Avenues Magazine food editor Sophie Petersen, paired with wines from The Ned to enjoy throughout the afternoon.

All eyes will be on the runway for the Merivale Mall fashion show, showcasing spring racing fashion and event wear from Merivale Mall retailers. Styled by the incredible stylists Lou Heller and Stephanie Rumble, the runway will be full of inspiration for your Cup and Show Week wardrobe, from standout race-day looks to outfits for celebrating beyond the track.

There’s plenty more to look forward to, with a fashion panel discussion featuring New Zealand Fashion Week Creative Director Dan Ahwa, and your own chance to step into the spotlight in our Best Dressed competition.
