Though other measures of runway diversity, such as size, are backsliding, older women have never been more visible
Famous faces not seen on Australian runways for over a decade have made a return to Australian fashion week. On Monday afternoon Australian supermodel Gemma Ward opened the show for Melbourne designer Toni Maticevski.
Ward was not the only model to signal a change in casting for the week to come. Though they have less name recognition, many of Maticevski’s other models were part of a new wave of maturity on Australian runways.
