Last night Melbourne put on quite a show – a softly sunny balmy evening under which to enjoy the launch of the 2014 Fashion Film Series as part of 2014 VAMFF’s Cultural Program. Along with team RUSSH magazine, fellow culture-vultures and industry luminaries, we enjoyed an evening of fine cider, delicious canapes and fashion film at the Emerald Peacock. Here’s the Ruby Assembly wrap:
