MSFW's first official runway show was a display of colour and texture, featuring some of the country's most talented designers.

I attended the Designer Series Gala with Thom from the amazing blog, Everyone's Celebrity.

Guests were treated to beautifully constructed gowns with detailed draping and embellishments, carefully tailored suits and vibrant colour.

The face of MSFW, Sophie Van Den Akker opened the show in an amazing Richard Nylon headpiece and was joined on stage by ethereal looking models dressed by up-and-coming designers Neo Dia.

Sophie also closed the show in a dramatic black Rachel Gilbert gown.

The night wasn't without controversy with PETA protesters interrupting Rachel Gilbert's runway show, angry at the designer's use of fur in her AW11 collection.

Despite this, the runway was a great success and showcased a great range of Spring/Summer looks which no doubt will be seen on fashion lovers this season.

Check out some of the pieces from the night:
