What better way to kick off Season 10 than with a live broadcast of the East Sydney Fashion Feast, an event I hosted and produced at Kings Cross’ Ezra Restaurant as part of the Eastside Unlocked Festival. With the help of our couture designer darling, Mariam Seddiq, and Sharon Salloum, the lady acclaimed for modernising Middle Eastern food in Australia, the lunch met it’s goal of being an elegant afternoon of food, fashion and fun! Together we explored the influence Sharon and Mariam’s Middle Eastern and Middle Asian heritages had on their crafts, highlighting the similarities and differences between the food and fashion industries, with an accent on sustainable practices. The guests broke the bread, they shared the wine and they sat back, relaxed and got a taste of both Mariam’s and Sharon’s stories and I hope you can too.
