Photo: Harry Stechman FOLLOWING a recent “CityNews” story that Canberra-schooled fashion designer Lilli McKenzie had been shortlisted in a design competition being held by Mazda Australia, news is in from RMIT University that she has won. The former Forrest Primary school pupil, now a student in the Bachelor of Fashion Design Honours, was announced as winner at a final showcase held at RMIT’s fashion headquarters in Melbourne and receives an all-expenses-paid trip to Japan to meet Mazda’s global design chief, Ikuo Maeda. McKenzie’s garment is the result of an experiment with traditional weaving techniques involving synthetic leather and cork, woven around the body.
