Cult Couture 2011 For the 10th year running, Manukau welcomed its "crown jewel" event, the Cult
Couture Fashion Awards Show, back for the Southside Arts Festival 2011.
The show, which was held on Saturday 15 October, celebrated all that is great about New Zealand, the iconic sights, sounds, monuments and even moments. The Supreme Award was awarded to Lindah Lepou, from Mt Eden, Auckland,
for the multi-facetted garment, Bushygaga, which was crafted from flax and unbleached calico. It's not the first time Lindah's garments have shone at Cult Couture; she was awarded the Supreme Award in 2009
Other category winners were Lisa Li (On the Streets), Ofa
Filoialii (Flight of Fantasy) Christopher Davis (Recycled Revolution), Kiri Nathan, (Formally Yours) and Kiri Nathan (Matrimonial Bliss).
Auckland's Deputy Mayor, Penny Hulse,
said: "Cult Couture is a showcase of amazing creativity and talent. It shows the very best of dance, music and fashion, and the south as the cultural and artistic capital of New Zealand."
