AFW 25: DAY 4 Highlights

Arguably the biggest day on the 2025 Schedule, Australian Fashion Week Day Four was a non-stop parade of jaw-dropping looks and unmatched glamour.

From the showstopping creations dreamt up by Redken Hair Director Richard Kavanagh for Iordanes Spyridon Gogos through to the unbridled hair artistry crafted by Redken Hair Director Diane Gorgievski at Albus Lumen’s 10 Year Anniversary, every moment of the day was filled with pure hair magic.

The runways of AFW showed no signs of slowing down on Day 4, with an abundance of showstopping moments and glamour.

REDKEN X IORDANES SPYRIDON GOGOS

An all-out explosion of creative expression, the collaboration between Jordan Gogos and Redken Hair Director Richard Kavanagh reached new heights – literally – and we tagged along for the ride!

This showcase was well and truly set somewhere over the rainbow, with artistry front and centre and each hair look unique to the garment – almost an extension of each piece.

Stay tuned for our upcoming Hair Director Diary with Richard Kavanagh, as he takes us through the entire process of the Hair Director journey for AFW – from hair trial through to curtain call.

REDKEN X ALBUS LUMEN

For Albus Lumon’s 10 Year Anniversary, Redken Hair Director Diane Gorgievski created stunning textures with unique finishes and beautifully bouncy blowouts. The result? Pure, unadulterated glamour. “It’s all glamorous drama, but in a very modern way,” says Diane Gorgievski.

‘This collection to me is very much about the celebration of hair.”

Diane also let us tag along for the entire journey from hair trial through to showtime. Stay tuned for her instalment of the Hair Directors Diary.

SHARK BEAUTY X MARIAM SEDDIQ

A modern take on classic elegance, Shark Beauty Hair Director Madison Voloshin crafted a bold yet refined hair direction with suprising sculptural moments only visible as the models turned.

He explains, “For Mariam’s show, we wanted the hair to echo the quiet drama of the collection – monochrome foundations with a bold pop, much like the styles we’ve created. From the front, it’s minimal and refined, but as the models turn, there’s an unexpected sculptural moment – a modern take on classic elegance. Using the Shark Beauty SpeedStyle with the concentrator attachment, we’ve created a super sleek base, then set it in place with diffuser-dried structure that won’t budge.”

REDKEN X HANSEN AND GRETEL

Redken Hair Director Diane Gorgievski’s romantic hair direction for Hansen and Gretel evoked an effortless elegance in the models sent down the runway.

TONI&GUY X GARY BIGENI

The TONI&GUY Australia crew were on hand to bring the good vibes backstage at the colourful Gary Bigeni show, where natural textures and individuality were celebrated.
