Jacky Piper, Leah Adamson and Chris King are the driving force behind the show which is set to impress with an opening performance by a local dancer, Djs, photographers, nine designers, 14 fashion students, a guest designer, 40 models, and all the back-stage excitement of hair, make-up and styling.
The MVFS is for the community and involves the community, with high-quality setting the standard. The organisers' message: big things can happen in small towns. Saturday's showcase includes a curated collection from nine designers who have been given artistic license.
"Each designer gets their own show in the big show," event organiser, Jacky Piper said. "They get to choose their own music, they can create movement with the models, they have a lot of free reign with their designs that are shown on the runway." The show's theme for 2024 is 'dreams', however, this broad concept lends itself to an array of expression.
"You can dream what you want to be," Jacky said. "Your dreams are free and you can create your dreams, even if you do live in the Macleay Valley, you can still be someone who is really successful." The night is about creative freedom for all those involved.
