Tonight's Passion for Fashion show, which opens Wanakafest 2010, will show off the talent of several emerging designers from around the South Island in a bid to broaden the event's profile.
The fashion show has introduced a "design pioneers" element to its format this year, with debutant designers bidding to establish their own fashion labels asked to contribute garments for the catwalk.
Passion for Fashion director Terzann Elliott said they would feature the designs of 10 "invitational" finalists who had submitted their work to be shown in the design pioneers section.
Entries for the pioneer category had come from all around New Zealand, with one of the chosen finalists based in Perth, Ms Elliott said.
"We've also picked up some really good labels from outside the region and will be showcasing these as part of our emerging designers category," she said.
